This is indeed a very good idea with all the salt in the air. I will hopefully not have any exposed connections to deal with. It's having a lot of thought put into placement and setup

Thanks Looney POE switches aren't a problem like you I like Netgear ones. SD is a must the rest will just be on top. Now swaying myself back towards BI haha. Oh it's a wonderful hobby

Maybe not the heat as such, just may be the full 24/7 continual running in a remote location. Like I say I've not convinced myself enough yet as I have used NVR's in the past and as most members have found I've found them limited at best. I just can't make up my mind whether it would suit...

Weirdly blue iris wasn't updated it was the same version that was always on there. I'm not sure how or why it happened. At home in using an elitedesk pc for the NVR I can't complain with the system it's served me well. I've no objection to going that way again. I just need to make sure...

It was blue iris that's used on my PC based NVR for my home system I like the software although I wasn't very impressed with the way they just switched my account off and reverted back to trial status after it was paid. But that's not a matter for this conversation. The problem I have with...

Oh sorry I just saw the motorised lenses version

Better start calculating the lens sizes are do you do the 5442 variant with VF lense

Thanks Andy I'll take a look

Thanks I'll have a look. Glad you mentioned turret form factor as I forgot to mention I need them to be discreet

So I've been away from the forum for around 18 months now. My current home setup is still doing good minus blue iris being a pain, but now I'm back and wondering what's changed in the 18 months since the 2mp starlights were the go to cameras. I have a new setup I need to put together so I'm...

That's what I did do in the end lol Although it still not working right Hmmm I'll investigate further. Looking at tour screenshot that's exactly how I did it so it was the trigger tab I did it from I also set the group for the ptz etc

I followed this guide https://ipcamtalk.com/threads/blue-iris-camera-groups-and-ptz-preset-triggers.28020/

I've been doing it in the alerts tab if I remember correctly I followed a guide on here See if I can find it
