    Severe instability and looking for opinions

    For the past few months I've not been able to trust Blue Iris to be running beyond a couple days as it keeps crashing. I've already tried the older stable version I used to use which is also crashing as well as different OS's and reinstalls of the one I was on. Watchdog is also having issue...

    Thanks. Looks like I've got some research to do on adding more IR light in that case.

    How to improve night time video with 4300S

    I just received a 4300S and am having some pretty bad night time quality compared to what I've seen in other videos. In the day it's pretty decent and I could probably see different facial features if someone's up close, however that's impossible at night. This is at 3MP 20FPS. Here they are...

    Dahua model number letters

    Thanks, that's what I was looking for and would have been helpful to have on their site. I also don't see how being more knowledgeable about what I am buying is over complicating as I'd rather only buy items with features i'll use. I don't need a motorized camera with fancy PTZ features so I...

    Dahua model number letters

    I've went over them multiple time and didn't find any mention of what "S" would mean in 4300S or the E-l in other models would mean. For all I know E could mean it uses less voltage than a non E model. I'm just looking for a basic list of what those letters stand for since the company can't help...

    I'm not after a 360 degree view right away, just the main places such as doors and a driveway. Our driveway is 85 feet and my mom parks about 65 feet away from the garage where the first camera will go. I feel that's a long ways away for the camera to catch detail compared to another one closer...

    I'll look into those cameras. I also don't want to put a switch in the basement as there'd only be about 7-8 cables going down there. I'd also need a managed switch to make sure things stay on their own VLAN which would cost a lot more than a patch panel. Also the total length should be under...

    Thanks for the fast reply. The punching down is more to keep things organized and easier to move around in the future. Would I see much of a different from a single run vs a max of 3 punches + 2 terminations?? (Switch to panel 1>panel 1 to panel 2>panel 2 to basement panel>basement panel to...

    [Solved]Rate My Build and How to Improve it EDIT: It seems I am best off just buying some cameras and going from there. I didn't get the main question I wanted answered fully so I'll see how things go once I start putting cameras up. Background Info: With recent break-ins to my parents'...
