Hey, I'm not sure if this will help or not, but I just recently got this camera too and couldn't get it to work until I changed the stream profile to the following:
Make: Dahua
Model: *Main Stream RTSP
Main: /cam/realmonitor?channel=1&subtype=0&unicast=true&proto=Onvif
Make sure that audio...
Functional requirements: Not 100% sure about zoom, I'd say 4x minimum. We have a corner street light that seems to always be on at night, so there's a good amount of light. It's east facing, so no sunset. The primary function is driveway monitoring and tracking the corner of our house. We get...
A little of both. It's a very large camera for the front corner of our house, but also without running a junction box or making changes to the area and the cables, I just don't think the camera will fit in that spot, regardless of the mount.
So this is "technically" the smallest camera that is...
Hey guys!
We're in the install phase for our cameras around our property. I guess I should have looked at camera sizes a little more closely, as the SD5A425XA-HNR PTZ camera I ordered is too big for the location that I have it planned for. (See photo). You can see the wiring location at the...
So, would this be a good option instead of getting various 5442 focal lengths? Just out of pure simplicity, I'd rather get a bunch of the same camera than getting a handful of different ones. I'm anxious to see how well this handles at night.
So, is there a camera similar to this one that has IR for night time viewing built into it that can automatically switch between the two? The example I'm currently using is a Nest camera. It seems to have decent night vision for my use case.
You will have to pardon my naivety, this camera looks awesome and something that I would look for in my new house that I mentioned earlier this year. I can't see anything about IR for night vision, so I'm guessing that this camera doesn't have "night vision" in the IR sense and depends on the 4...
I’m flabbergasted with the knowledge and experience you guys have. Haha! I’m really thinking I’m getting in over my head. However, having a site like this is very helpful.
I guess my next question is more for user friendliness. Is there a system out there that will give me an experience close...
I'm excited to learn more and test given what you guys have said, YET I'm nervous to show you the results if it's not very good.
If you guys are interested, I'll post what we end up doing!
Just SOME things to consider? I started out loving this camera to realizing it would not be a good fit at all considering all these points. This helps a ton. THANK YOU
Thank you guys for all your information. I had a meeting with a potential installer. He showed me his low-voltage certification too.
I guess my next question is - I feel like I like the UniFi G4 Pro cameras, any reason not to get them? I know they are more expensive, but it looks like the...
