    Installer / Contractor in the Escondido, CA Area needed

    Hey guys, I've been a member for a long time and I DIY everything. A dear friend in another state is trying to install a camera system after a near total loss fire with unknown origins (fire department can't rule out arson). I'd love them to get some IP cameras setup, have someone pull ethernet...

    Recommend DAV to MP4 Converter, Please

    Works perfectly in Windows 10, I'm pretty sure it's a dependency that needs an update on my Ubuntu box.... I need to sort that. Thanks!

    Do you guys restrict cameras from accessing internet?

    I use Ubiquiti stuff so I'm able to setup pretty complex firewall rules, but many routers can do the same. I have all my cameras and NVR live on their own VLAN and don't allow that VLAN any access to my main LAN where my important files servers, VPN server, etc. live. The main LAN can access the...

    Bricked IPC-HDW4231EM-ASE?

    Looks like it's bricked. I'm boxing it up to send back to Andy. He'd confident they can fix it.

    Bricked IPC-HDW4231EM-ASE?

    I shrink wrap, then seal the ends with electrical tape. Love that coax-seal stuff...thanks for reminding me about it!

    Bricked IPC-HDW4231EM-ASE?

    Looking nice, fresh and clean. I don't think it's the connection. I'm tempted to try the reset button, but I'll wait to hear from Andy first.

    Bricked IPC-HDW4231EM-ASE?

    Already pulled it down. It was in a dry spot under my covered patio. Tried with a short cable but still not working. Do these have an external reset button or do you have to take them apart?

    Bricked IPC-HDW4231EM-ASE?

    One of my IPC-HDW4231EM-ASE cameras I got from Andy in July seemed to have died. It seems to perhaps be stuck in a boot loop since it seems to periodically disconnect from the switch. I can't ping it or see it with the Dahua ConfigTool. Any thoughts on how to recover it? Thanks!

    Hey guys, I started a thread over here (DAV converter command line), but was wondering if any of the previous contributors to this thread know of any command line tools to convert DAVs?

    2MP PIR Wifi camera

    Yeah, that's still a pain, but less of a pain since I have a decent number of outdoor outlets...shorter run at least.
