I'm rebuilding my cams system, I have 3 old Foscam ip cam (FI9816P) and one more recent ip cam IMOU CRUISER SE+4MP. I have been using raspberry pi with AgentDVR to monitor the 4 cams, it has been working fine, but usually video was not fluid. So I decided to give it a go on with Dahua NVR...

I just bought a Foscam S41 with a view to installing it over my front door. I have connected it via the Alexa skill and it is visible on screen when I say 'Alexa Show the Front Door'. The camera is set up to provide notifications when people move into view. I would like Alexa to show the...

I´m trying to connect my ip camera with Youtube using ffmpeg to convert the stream from RTSP to RTMP. rtsp_url="rtsp:/xxxxxx" rtmp_url="rtmp:/xxxxxx" ffmpeg -rtsp_transport tcp -i $rtsp_url -tune zerolatency -vcodec libx264 -pix_fmt + -c:v copy -c:a aac -strict experimental -f flv $rtmp_url...

I just got a new Foscam SPC wireless floodlight camera and was wondering if I could somehow use the PIR Sensor built in to it to trigger a recording event in Blue Iris. I think this would be much more accurate than the motion detection in rain/snow as well as other conditions. I have been...

Hello--yes, the camera is ancient, but it worked fully years ago with all options enabled. Dusted it off and had to do a reset as I forgot the password. Updated to the latest firmware, camera is wired, static IP assigned, port forward enabled, email enable (and tested), ftp enabled (and tested)...

I was in the garage getting the recycling ready when I heard this jittering noise. It took me a minute to locate it, at first I thought the mice had acquired motorized artillery. It was my Foscam PTZ camera trying to twist it's head off. I haven't accessed this camera in a while, so no idea why...

I'm currently running a few of these cameras in blue iris and they work fine, but I'm trying to find the stream url to load up the stream in my browser. I've tried all manner of rtsp as well as http urls and I've had no luck. However my cameras work just fine in Blue Iris. Is there anyway for...

I've been trying to get a Foscam vnt6656g6A40 IP camera to work with a Hikvision NVR. I've never set up a camera using RTSP before (I JUST RECENTLY found out that RTSP is the transmission protocol as I thought before that was ONVIF). I've been trying different combinations of settings in the...

Hello. I would like to repair my ipcam Foscam brand (FI9901EP) and Wanscam (HW0045), I would like to know where to buy spare parts. Thank you

I bought a foscam fi9900p today, and I am trying to get the live stream into opencv, I had a hikvision before and I added this and it worked "rtsp://admin: pass@1IP/doc/page/previw.asp", I googled how to do it on Foscam, and it said to do this "rtsp://admin: pass@1IP: port/videoMain", but when I...

Was receive in first time Foscam cams to our service center: 1) fi9900p v1, power consumption is dynamic (0,05-0,08A). If connect UART (+, -, rx\tx (tx\rx)), have strange symbols (need to change port speed?) 2) fi9800p dont have a dynamic power consumption (static 0,08A), if connect UART - not...

Hi. So basically, the picture quality I'm getting from my Foscam R2 is abysmal. Day or Night it's a pixelated mess The above is what it's looking like now. And day time is no better. When the connection first starts, it's crisp and clear, but after a minute, it goes right back to what you're...

foscam web interface/app: perfect iSpy: loses connection every so often Using VLC, FFMPEG has more dark colors and blocky lines. Camera: FI9800P Settings: Hope someone can help. It might have been my CPU, gave it 3x as much CPU power now.

Have one Synology server and a pair of IP cameras. Reolink and Foscam IP camera starts when it comes motion before cameras. Why are all recorded files between 11mb to 25mb. Why are not the files bigger, in one file? Duration from 15sec to 1min. Why are they not in a file / size? How to get in...

Hello I Accidentally installed wrong firmware on my FI9828P IP-Camera and i contacted foscam, for suggestions. I got supplied with the PDF (I added to mail). I went through the steps, and it went well. I got to the point where I should delete the wrong firmware I installed initially, so i...

I've installed a couple systems now and just discovered this site. The wealth of information here is amazing but I'm having a little trouble searching the site often getting a "no results found" response. So if someone could point me towards the right threads that'd be great. Looking for the...

Hi guys. Sorry I've been using IP cameras for a while but always on a "try this, try that" base, not having any real background knowledge of this environment. My problem today is watching and recording a small Digoo M1Q from a Foscam NVR FN3104. I can watch the camera from its app (both from...

Hello. I am dealing with Dahua, Sharx, and Dahua cameras so far. Can Blue Iris access the recordings on the SD chip of a camera?

I have a Foscam clone that Blue Iris can't connect to and I think it is probably because of the screen that the Foscam throws up after you log in where it asks which mode you want: for IE or for Firefox or for portable or something. How do I configure Blue Iris to enable it to handle that...

Im running Blue Iris on a 4+ year old laptop with an i5 and 8GB ram. I have 6 cameras (5 foscam and 1 armcrest), 5 of which record on motion, the 6th is just a backup monitor in the nursery so it doesnt record, i just stream the video on a tablet sometimes. The cameras are all configured in...

I've got a pool of two types of cameras, DLink DSC-942L and Foscam C1, connected them to Blue Iris, got no problem, except setting up talk. The audio only works one way. I am able to listen to the cameras audio, but pushing the talk button makes the sound from my PC microphone come to the...

Hey all, some googling didn't bring up much, but I was hoping maybe someone here has managed to, or knows of a way, to use the PIR sensor on the Foscam C1 to trigger motion detection. I do see an option to use "cameras digital input or motion", and it does seem to put blue iris into the alert...

I have been using a Foscam FI9828P for a few years and now the picture of the camera became PINK color. I did reset, and tried to manually correct the colors, no luck. Have you guys seen such before??? Why it shows now only pink color?? Is there any way to fix it?

I have some FI9821w V2's which work great, but the PTZ doesn't work within blue iris. I have tried setting the PTZ to different port and using the ip and port of the camera, using port 888 which the camera says is the "ONVIF Port", I have tried all three predefined Foscam options in the...

I have two new R4 and managed to brick one (BSOD during firmware update). The dud I have a serial USB connector connected and all I see in PuTTY is the boot screen, I can't interrupt it or get any commands to the device. ___ ___ _________ _ / _ \ | \/...

As the thread says. My cams sensitivity are tricky to adjust. If I set the sensitivity to medium the cam alerts at every little light source and I get like a thousand mails a night. If I set the sensetivity to low the burglar has to walk up to the cam and wave his arms to get caught. The...

Hi, New here, hoping for some help with my setup. Apologies for the long question(s). I currently have 8 wifi IP Cameras around my house – six Foscam and two Wanscam - and using Blue Iris. I recently updated my network setup, and am having trouble getting everything working. I'd had...

I recently added a new camera to my setup. A Foscam FI9826P V2. I was able to get Blue Iris connected to it to view the feed, but PTZ controls/zoom do not work with this. I have tried all different Foscam configurations within blue iris as well as the find/inspect button. The info on the...

I'm not the best with networking, so please bare with me. If I could get some help, it would be much appreciated. So I've been doing consulting work recently, and one of my clients asked me to do this project. He wanted a security camera set up on the east coast, that he could monitor from...
