I know this is a bit abnormal but i have a location that i could really use a 50-100mm focal length. I would prefer turret style camera but by the design of them i doubt they could handle anything over 12mm really. Does anyone have any suggestions because either my searching is horrible these...

OK this is a bit of a strange one but i have a2cd3345 and the cable on it now idea how is bad. I finally figured out what was going on with the cam by moving the wires around one day and it booted up then when the wires moved again it shut back down. I tore it apart and it does not look...

I searched and could not find an answer to this. Anyway for both Hik and Dahua NVR's with POE ports let's say a camera is plugged into the POE port and instead of using the NVR app on my phone i want to use onvifer I can not connect. I understand it is separating the networks but is there a...

OK i actually got it figured out but now am curious if someone has a solution. It is the female connector on the camera end :( has anyone ever experienced this before and before i go stripping the wires and installing a new ip68 female connector on there did they use the standard color pinout...

OK have a bit of a strange situation and I have it mostly diagnosed. I have one camera that drops every couple of days. It is located outside and I have both the circular cable protector thing installed on it and also it is inside a housing. When it drops I have tried unplugging it from the...

if you could integrate that into a qpkg for qnap nas's you would be the hero to many. in the mean time i am going to play around with it. also speaking of putting this on a nas i am curious since the camera's do the lifting and basically this is more of a storage platform if it would be...

those who have changed lenses are there any brands/sellers you would recommend over others. This looks neat enough to try out. thanks

OK i have 2 issues with blue iris(release 4.5.5.0 x64 on windows 10) right now the first is about every 3 to 5 the webserver completely stops responding. I have to go to the webserver tab disable it, reboot the machine, re-enable it reboot the machine. This is the only way i've been able to...

I'm curious what was your solution. I'm on 4.5.3.5 x64 and am having a similar issue. boot drive is m.2 ssd, that is where the DB and new files are. I have a large striped set of drives for the archived files, however it is not archiving according to the limit i am setting. basically i run...

I have a bit of a strange situation that I am in need of a temp sensor to display on a camera in a particular area. I know this can be done with multiple pieces of hardware but was curious if Hik or any other brands actually had something built in to display temperature in the room it is in...

agreed why people allow anything from china like this access to the outside world is beyond me.

I would say this is not really getting hacked and more some kid is changing the password on someone's cam that is to dumb to change the default passwords. 2 different things IMHO.

I went to purchase some 4mp turret cameras from aliexpress and both of my suppliers said they are not getting hacked cameras any more but would sell the 3mp ones for basically the same price I can get cameras here in the us for. Any idea if this is going to let up any time soon? edit: I should...

OK I've searched and could not find what I was looking for sorry if it is stickied somewhere. Anyway I remember people always telling me when getting an NVR always get an authentic US version and it is OK to get the chinese converted cams. However I do not remember why and was curious if...
