Yes, you are correct. Close up like that car it is easy to discern more detail. You can see my Mercedes in my garage on the pic I uploaded but that is weel lit in my garage. I get why you dislike Reolink. I would say though that maybe you sent yours back a while back and since then they may...

If I remember correctly the Reolink retained its correct aspect ratio. The AMcrest NVR, which I initially had and sent back when I move to BI supported Amcrest cameras with differing aspect ratios. Thus i was equally able to display the Duo2 correctly. I have to say that the Amcrest NVR did...

Here's a BI pic of my whole system at night. The Reolink Duo2 is providing a comparable image to the othe makes.

@wittaj, Here's a couple of pics for ya. They seem fine to me but I am just a retired physicist and amateur astronomer who worked in IT for 50 years, so what do I know? I know that results work and that nothing that works is silly. Reolink may be a bit strange and they may try hard to lock...

I hope that your Dou2 works with your NVR. I gave up on the NVR and moved to Blue Iris. I then went through soem home networking changes and I ended up with all my cameras including a Duo2 that now work perfectly for just under a year. I have all my cameras wired and on PoE which is backed up...

Dahua is a good choice. They are a major manufacturer of cameras and NVRs. Many other branded cameras are made by Dahua and rebadged and/or have modified functionality. Going homogenously Dahua is one of the safe ways to go. Had I stayed entirely with Amcrest I would have been buying...

I used various brands of DVR since 2009 until, a few weeks ago I decided to buy an Amcrest NV4116E-A2 16 channel NVR. It had (note the tense) 8 PoE ports. It worked weel enough and I bought a majority of Amcrest cameras to work with it. I also had 3 generic ONVIF cameras. I got them all...

Thanks @Mike A. A good tip. Android works the same way. Remove all the items and the Desktop folder goes away.

Right here there are three ways to o this. Nice. I'd try but I no longer have an NVR. I got the refund though.

Could do that. Only one camera though. I now have three ways to achive what I was after. Thank you.

That is what the manual talks about on page 64. It is obvious now you say it that this is a layout edit function. Thanks.

Thanks guys. That worked perfectly. @wittaj, I have been screwed SO many times it is a miracle I ain't pregnant.

So here is another dumb question from me. I have one camera inside my house. I use it when we travel. Mostly I want to have this hidden from the main window UI and ui3 webview. I set the camera up and made sure it worked. Then, I unEnabled it but it still showed the camera windows and it's...

Oh how right you are. I still have my Duo 2 and I have it working. I had to drop both video streams down to 15fps to make it produce consistent and stable output. The audio stream still produces random bursts of digital noise that I just cannot clear. The Duo 2 is screwed to my house now and...

Of course just crashing around with little or no idea of what you are doing is a formula for disaster so some caution is initially called for. This is why most countries have some sort of driving test (although that may, at times see a bad example...) Playing with our environment is how we...
