    DH-TPC-BF5421-T Thermal camera captures wild hogs...

    I did ask him a while back and he was pretty emphatic that it was a hard limit. I would much rather have it one one, and would gladly pay to add more capacity. I'll try again.

    DH-TPC-BF5421-T Thermal camera captures wild hogs...

    Correct. I think the thermal is 13mm and the optical is 8mm. Definitely far from ideal, but at $75 a piece I can find a way to make it work. Most of them will be 20' up on utility poles along the street where wide FOV isn't super critical. Now my problem is I'm at 64 cameras and I can't add...

    Any idea what could be causing this flickering of video streams? It's been present for months on the console, but never on UI3 - until this morning. What's odd is it seems to only do it on the native display resolution when the browser is maximized. Any browser smaller than the entire...

    DH-TPC-BF5421-T Thermal camera captures wild hogs...

    Used to be - over on the other coast in Tampa. Moved to middle-TN about 8 years ago... lot's more open area and wild life. I have three cars a day that drive down my road. One is mail, the other UPS... Third is FedEx or my only neighbor.

    LOL... the thought crossed my mind... but I can already imagine where I'm using all of them. I have a deer feed plot that could use a few...

    DH-TPC-BF5421-T Thermal camera captures wild hogs...

    I absolutely love this camera. I picked up 5 of them on eBay about 6 months ago - a guy was letting them go for about $160/ea. That was a good deal compared to what others were charging. But since then, I've realized I can use a lot more. Unfortunately, the guy had no more to offer, and...

    Poor IR contrast in new Tennessee license plates

    Thanks Tim - Yeah, I read all 20 pages again tonight to refresh my memory on how we progressed. Unfortunately, my application is a bit unique - with zero ambient lighting where the camera is placed. No street lights, no houses visible from any direction. Fireflies are BRIGHT out here. So...

    Poor IR contrast in new Tennessee license plates

    Has anything changed (i.e. come to market) that provides for a DIY solution with a 740nm IR and appropriately tuned sensor? I saw the review of Andy's LPR camera, but that's just a bit too rich for my budget. I was hoping by now something like conventional Z12-E, but equipped with the 740nm...

    I just tried both and no beans. I suppose I could just create another camera going to just one of the remote cameras and point to that with the audio channel - but I'm up against the 64-camera hard limit (which is why I'm going with the group/index-to-camera option in the first place). Thanks...

    I was using the neighbor's server as RTSP and it worked - but frequently dropped out and no audio. I recently moved to using Raw h264 with the IP of the server, and /h264/[groupname] under the stream. Much more reliable, but still no audio... For grins, I added /h265/[camera_shortname] to...

    Quick question about viewing streams from an external BI server. I use my BI server to log into a neighbor's BI server, and have added one of their groups as a single camera. That group-view camera on my UI3, understandably, has no audio (as no group does). However, I'd like to use the audio...

    Need help watching elderly parents via cloud + BI

    My parents are in an independent living facility with excellent free wifi (500+mbps). However, it's double-NATed, with no ability to pull a public IP or access port forwarding. I'm able to connect to his PC using RealVNC's cloud services, but nothing that requires port-forwarding works. I...

    Anyone having issues getting PIP to work in Brave? It's been working great until a couple days ago and now the main screen goes black, but no PIP. Works good in Chrome. It may be on my system. Resolved... Turns out somehow the PIP went to the background - behind everything else (vs...

    Everything likes chicken... even owls

    Legally, nothing. They are protected migratory birds. Big fines and criminal liability.
