I had something weird happen with mine today. The presets all rotated their horizontal position about 45 degrees the same direction, the vertical axis was unchanged. Got everything reset and will see if it happens again. Really strange.

I took a look at the node red system, looks incredible but is also way over my head

It’s not terrible if ya don’t mind 115+ for a few months out of the year.

Thanks again for your support and everything ya do here EmpireTech. Got the camera up this weekend. Now I need to play around to get the tracking working. Just haven’t had time to get there yet. The house/office is 375 yards away.

Welp, for the first time in the history of construction it sounds like the stucco and styrofoam house is a plus. Waiting for the Amazon fairy to deliver a mount. Hope to have the new cam up this weekend. Ill need to spend some time figuring out how all this PTZ stuff works.

Holy crap. I won something. First raffle I’ve ever won something in

Son of a... I know why. the 2 cameras in question are cloned/hidden for some stuff I was playing with a long time ago. The clones were attempting the old passwords!!! edit: 20 min later, issue is 100% resolved. For real this time.

I do have a special character in my password (not an @). Maybe that has something to do with it... but then again, it works fine on the other cameras. Just bizarre

<<<< Edit, I was 100% wrong in this post. See below, was caused by a camera/clone issue if anyone is reading this in the future >>>> Okay, likely discovered the contributing factor to my woes. The cameras that worked and were not getting locked out were configured in BI as Dahua cameras in...

Looks like "something" is attempting to login to the camera and give it commands with a "System" account. Now to figure out what exactly that is

Process (via memory, so I'm sure I forgot something) when I initially configured the cameras: Follow GUI process & set password (hasn't changed since my initial configuration -- all 3 of the cameras & LPR camera were set with this login/pass... 2 have problems) -set 264/264 -set NTP -some other...
