Can anyone confirm there still is a MJPEG stream (available trough an http connection)? As nayr stated here that with the latest firmware, this feature is removed: Dahua Starlight Varifocal Turret (IPC-HDW5231R-Z) ? (Yes, unfortunately my home automation system does not supports RSTP/h264, it's...

Thought so already... Thinking now about getting 2/3 turrets (IPC-HDW5231R-ZS), for fixed (low-light) vision, and 1/2 PTZ (SD22204T-GN), for additional covering during daytime (ptz triggered by fixed turrets).

Hello, I know that there is much to find here already, and I did, but I find it hard to make a choice on this, due to the many possibilities. After comparing brands (Hikvision, ...), Dahua seems suitable for me. Top level requirement: MJPEG stream to integrate in my home-automation system...
