    iDS-2CD7A46G0/P-IZHS not record road traffic events to the memory card

    Can we see a picture of your Micro SD page? What does it say about your storage? Have you tested to see if it would even record full time? Just as a fall back to confirm that the Micro SD card isn't the issue? What does your Logs say about your events? Does it say that there was an event to record?

    Dahua NVR NEXT GUI

    Say start using now.. But looking at the Firmware page after clicking for your NVR shows it is from March.. So not sure if that has the new look or not? https://www.dahuasecurity.com/products/All-Products/Network-Recorders/WizSense-Series/NVR-5-EI-Series/2HDD/NVR5208-8P-EI

    Newb needs advice on second hand cameras

    Agree 2mp is great camera with quality optics and good IR range. I have many different cameras, with a good few being 2mp. When you're ready upgrade to what you want, I personally don't have all perfect cameras in my fleet but work great for where I use them. Only need to make yourself happy...

    Worst PTZ you own but dont want to remove

    So I have to say my WZ500 from Annke is the worse PTZ camera that I own and could have been a good 20x zoom camera if it would work as it should. The good news is the camera was cheap enough to keep it.. Now to be fair I have first release and hear that some others have later gen and they don't...

    Newb needs advice on second hand cameras

    There are many factors on why a IP camera or any Security camera can go bad over time.. Most times someone can kill a camera the same day they installed it just because they used the wrong type of cable or even wrong format of POE for IP POE cameras.. After years if the cameras were in an area...

    Good IP Cameras That Don't Need IR Lights

    First off, I’ve never claimed that my camera on default settings can capture license plates. I do have a couple of cameras that are set up specifically for that, but they required adjustments to get good results, which is totally normal. Unless you're working with a purpose-built LPR/ANPR camera...

    Newbie looking for recommendation for security camera

    Now if you had almost 10k to drop then I would go with something like this..

    Newbie looking for recommendation for security camera

    Wide-angle + plate clarity at 30–40m is not realistic with a single fixed camera. Digital zoom after the fact doesn’t magically recover detail, optical zoom or narrow FOV is required. PTZs are not suitable for general coverage and plate capture at the same time. One camera doing it all is a...

    Vigilant Solutions VSR-60-02MP1 IP Camera IPC262ER9-X10DU 24V, 1.5A, 50/60Hz.

    Qustion is did you enable AI or make any other changes to the camera that turns off the BNC? Maybe they are different and don't disable but seems like a lot to work out for the camera.. In your DVR what did the camera page show that it is setup for under your camera, encoding? CVBS? and what is...

    Axis P5635-E doa (no power)

    Yes you are right, I read and typed without confirming the part number sorry have Dyslexia and things don't always translate to well in my typing.. Sady both Prosper and Pulse don't have any data sheet for this Transformer and with it being from 2015 they would know and maybe contacting the...

    Axis P5635-E doa (no power)

    You could try to replace the PTDFD25-13NL if you have the right tools. This device you could find from Pulse Electronics distributors. However before doing this I would double check other components on the board as well.. PoE controller IC from someone like Ti, Silvertel or many others.. Test...

    Good IP Cameras That Don't Need IR Lights

    If my camera looked anything like the New Tech in this video I would just go back to my old Samsungs from 08 to 16 and only use them.. Because while they are saying at 608 ish that it is their best 4mp offered my much older camera from Dahua looks much better with or without light lol.. Sure...

    Good IP Cameras That Don't Need IR Lights

    Totally fair points; I agree that resolution, lighting, and full-detail snapshots matter for evaluating performance. I wasn’t trying to make wild claims, just sharing my own setup where I’ve got decent ambient light and the cameras (like the N45EFN2) do a reasonable job for what I need...
