Has anyone used this camera with Blue Iris?

IPC-A35 | Dahua Technology - Dahua Technology

My forum search didn't turn up any results ....

Thanks

I am curious too. But I guess it should work without problems.

I sent an email to BI support and got this back:

I do apologize for the delay on this!
I was able to find that this camera is in fact compatible though.
If you do end up needing assistance with configuring PTZ and finding the proper settings, please put the camera online for us to test when you receive it, and we would be happy to help.​

I ended up getting a different camera, so I never pursued it any further...

Awesome. Thanks for finding this out. I need a wifi cam for the kids room so this would work.

Sorry for the necro but I've actually just ordered one of the smart tracking versions of this (the Dahua IPC A26) which will hopefully be arriving before too much longer and I'm hoping it too should play ball with Blue Iris.

I couldn't for the life of me find any UK suppliers for it so I found an Estonian website in the end which will hopefully be ok - Parcelforce is certainly tracking the shipment at the moment at least. I'll update the post to confirm as and when it arrives.

I've got 8 Dahua cameras that came with a system I bought awhile back. They work great with Blue Iris.

Well I have received the A26 ok and got it set up with BI and it seems to work pretty well (using RTSP). Initial configuration needs to be done with the LeChange app on your phone, and the available settings are pretty basic, but you can set some presets (favourites in the app) and turn on the Smart Tracking. BI will then just pick up the feed and the preset positions (the names don't get synced so you need to manually edit those), and PT control works from BI too. Smart tracking is a bit jerky but still pretty useful, and after about a second of the camera not detecting anything (or losing the object) it will return to the position it was in before it began Smart Tracking.

Edit: It has been pointed out to me in the Dahua section of the forum that there are a whole load of options you can change (which the LeChange app doesn't give you) if you use SmartPSS, including text overlays, streaming options and SmartIR mode.
