    CodeProjectAI errors

    I have a freshly installed (licensed) BlueIris 5 setup and it suggested to use CodeProjectAI. Since this is on a beefier machine, i decided to give it a try. I installed CodeProject.AI-Server_2.9.5_win_x64 with the default options which installed 3 modules: Face Processing 1.12.3 Object...

    How to playback BlueIris Alert video?

    Why does the image say 49m54s? I there something in the config that caused it to create an image instead of making a video? When I open the 32MB bvr file, I get the same behavior: nothing happens, it's like I'm looking at a still picture

    How to playback BlueIris Alert video?

    Normally I am able to play most video alerts just fine in BlueIris, but every once in a while (usually when something interesting happens), I cannot figure out how to playback the video. I have this (AI confirmed) alert that has a 49m54s video, that I just can't playback either via the web or...

    Review- IPC-WL46A 4MP 2.8mm Floodlight Wifi Network Camera

    For the Canadian channels, I just used Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_WLAN_channels#5_GHz_(802.11a/h/n/ac/ax) Channel 48 in Canada is Indoor, in US is both Indoor and Outdoor. I mounted the camera outside. The 5GHz was too weak for the camera to use it. In fact I find the...

    Review- IPC-WL46A 4MP 2.8mm Floodlight Wifi Network Camera

    Thanks for the reply. I tested with a 5G only AP 1m away from the camera. The camera does not see it in the list. After playing with various channels, the camera accepted to connect to the 5GHz Wi-Fi when it was on channel 157. The screen doesn't show the 5G WiFi that it is connected to in the...

    Review- IPC-WL46A 4MP 2.8mm Floodlight Wifi Network Camera

    Do you still have the camera? I got the Canadian version (IPC-L46N-CAN) and for the life of me I cannot get it to see any 5GHz Wi-Fi. Did you ever try to use 5G, can you post a picture of the Web UI that shows where you can change the Frequency in the settings? This is the WiFi page I see...

    IPC-WL46A 4MP Fixed-focal Floodlight Network Camera

    I ended up buying one (IPC-L46N-CAN) from a Canadian Dahua Authorized dealer (about 300CAD after tax) and overall the camera is good. The look and feel of the WebUI is identical to the wired cameras. The lag is also the same as with the wired cameras. The only issue I have is that I cannot get...

    Dahua randomly changing settings automatically

    I have one IPC-HDW2439TP-AS-LED-S2 camera that keeps switching to continuous video and snapshot recording: I uncheck, save, and a few days later I notice the Storage filling and go to the camera and see the box is checked. Unchecking from "Storage destination" doesn't help. the General box...

    Controlling Camera LEDs

    Yes, but setting the authentication is a different story. You need to put a header in BI (Basic Authorization works) with the encoded password. For basic Authentication, you can simply use the browser's JavaScript to encode (no need to look for online tools and risk leaking your credentials)...

    API calls for Illuminator Empiretech 4KT

    Thanks, this worked for me. The forum has some older threads that suggest /cgi-bin/configManager.cgi?action=setConfig&Lighting[0][1].Mode=Off but (at least for newer cameras), need to use Lighting_V2 /cgi-bin/configManager.cgi?action=setConfig&Lighting_V2[0][0][0].Mode=Off

    API to turn on light for the IPC-HDW3849H-AS-PV

    In the browser: http://10.0.0.10/cgi-bin/configManager.cgi?action=setConfig&Lighting[0][1].Mode=Off This works for my Dahua HDW2439T-AS-LED-S2 or 5442 LED only partially: it changes the config (I can confirm in the camera's UI), but it does not "activate" it. In other words it changes config...

    Controlling Camera LEDs

    This request seems to change the config setting, but not apply it. When I go to the camera, I see the setting is change, but the lights don't turn on/off until I go and click Save. EDIT: The forum has some older threads that suggest...

    Controlling Camera LEDs

    Thanks for this post! I just want to add that this also works for Dahua HDW2439T-AS-LED-S2. In the browser is asks for Digest Authentication. EDIT: Did you ever figure out how to send the authenticated request through Blue Iris?

    IPC-HDW2439TP-AS-LED-S2 WDR? How?

    Thanks for the suggestion. I was thinking about adding motion lights, but this camera has two (bright enough) LEDs. Even when I run them 1/100 intensity it is enough for the camera to see very well. I would like to configure Blue Iris to actually turn them on on movement, so I would get the...
