    REVIEW: HIKVISION DS-2CD2387G2P-LSU/SL

    Don't know I don't have one. However, it sounds like you may have a Chinese version with forced English firmware. I'm afraid there's no way to update it if that's the case.

    REVIEW: HIKVISION DS-2CD2387G2P-LSU/SL

    Did you buy it cheap from an overseas site? Sounds like you got a foreign language version that's has custom adapted English firmware forced onto it. It's probably been upgrade locked because if you try to upgrade the firmware it will brick the camera.

    Camera thinks telephone pole is human

    One solution without retraining the AI would be to simply use a privacy mask and mask the pole. It's a pole so a black rectangle is no different. You might even be able to get away with masking within the pole depending on low large it is in the picture, so a little bit of pole can be seen each...

    2nd Amendment thread

    The irony is the uk announced it this week. You''re still going to need a licence to own a supressor in the UK, but previously they had to be registered by serial number like guns and had to be transferred with paperwork if sold enabling the authorities to keep a track of them, but now they can...

    The Typical picture of a Perp on Nextdoor-type Apps with Consumer Grade Cameras like Ring, Nest, Arlo, Canary, Wyze, etc.

    That's some lens distortion as well. Looks as if the cars had a shunt and been made a few feet more compact!

    Looking for low-light camera recommendation to use as navigation aid on a boat

    My only observations as feedback for Boateye, is maybe it would benefit from software image stabilisation to remove / minimise the boat sway & maybe progressive video instead of interlaced to reduce the issues with the railings producing a jagged, moire effect (I'm presuming it's interlacing...

    Moving to a new PC , my need some help.

    Not cheap but I can highly recommend Arceserve Shadow Protect for backups and transferring between PC's. It can make an exact mirror of your PC and do a hardware independent update, so you can change hardware components that are tied to Windows such as CPU or motherboard, and it won't blink...

    "Time out" Activation camera

    If you can't get web page access to activate it, then maybe there's an activation tool. There's one for Dahua cameras, unsure what brand you're using.

    Blue Iris discount no longer available?

    It maybe something to do with Mike recently being forced to switch payment provider due to some alleged issues he was having with the old one.

    2nd Amendment thread

    Not quite 2nd amendment so hope you guys don't mind me posting this here, (it seemed to be the self defence thread), but justice was served in the UK the other day by a YT's professional bodyguard, albeit reasonable force style with a slap and kick (a full 1hr video which includes the earlier...

    Dahua WizColor COMING SOON!

    Is there a mic built in internally on this series and a speaker? One of the big issues I've found is the internal mic's can be poor and trying to find a cheap external weatherproof speaker is like hens teeth. This is one are Dahua could really improve on. The CCTV speakers tend to be very...

    A warning, K-Lite codec pack can install Infatica.

    That is new. It's seems obviously a commercial deal with Klite. I personally wouldn't want it installed. Web search results: https://blog.oudel.com/exploring-infatica-p2b-network-windows-11/ https://infatica.io Thnaks for bringing this to everyone's intention.
