Blue Iris and Dahua PTZ protocols

[toastie]

This is no big issue here, I am just curious about Dahua PTZ protocols under Blue Iris.
I've one Dahua varifocal and 3 Dahua PTZs. My new 4MP mini PTZ though needed the selection of a different protocol in configuration which I did not expect.

Dahua 2MP Varifocal Turret DH-IPC-HDW5231RP-ZE configured in BI PTZ/Control, working as ONVIF (OXML)
Dahua 2MP large PTZ DH-SD50225U-HNI configured in BI PTZ/Control, working as ONVIF (OXML)
Dahua 2MP mini PTZ DH-SD1A203T-GN configured in BI PTZ/Control, working as ONVIF (OXML)

Dahua 4MP mini PTZ DH-SD1A404XB-GNR now configured in BI PTZ/Control, not working not as ONVIF (OXML), but as Dahua New V4,

I wonder if I have the best BI PTZ protocol chosen for my cameras, Is any working PTZ protocol under BI good enough? I guess so?

All cameras PTZ work with ONVIF Manager and each camera's web browser.

As long as it works that is all that matters. They are all different variations of ONVIF so use the one that works!

I use "Dahua New V4" for most, especially for cams with pan and tilt because Dahua New V4 supports relative positioning, a.k.a. "3D positioning."

Dahua New V4 is more responsive than ONVIF in my experience.
