All, What is the WIKI (ha ha) for buying from Andy, where do we get a hold of him to pay, what info does he need, etc. TIA

What camera do you recomend (brand/model), thanks for the link I will play around with it

Nayr, I see you are the resident experts on the Dahua's. I am looking for a good camera with facial recognition at about 15' for both day/night. I currently have a Hikvision 3 MP 4mm and at > 8-10' I am not impressed. I am looking for a turret/dome (the round ones), any suggestions. Thank...

All, I have the camera set to continuous record however the clips are broken into segments. In the record settings I have it set to 8 hrs or 8GB but the clip files I am getting are around 4GB and 1 hr, any ideas ?

so the profile's are a global setting (goes across all camera's). so what's the point of them (change cam setting for night, etc) ?

That's what I thought but it's not working. If I have both as profile1 it works (records on cam1 and takes pics on cam2) but only records video based on motion in the unmasked area that was setup in cam2. If I try to do two different profiles (profile 1 and hotspot) cam2 does not stay/save as...

Now that I have the camera copied can I have one record on motion (no mask) and then the second take a pic when the object goes into an unmasked area ? Both are on the same profile just one has video (no mask) and the other is pic with mask.

Excellent, that saved me a lot of time. Thanks fenderman !

What do you mean by duplicate camera ?

Ok, makes sense. So in order to use multiple profiles I would have to set a schedule and a profile to use ?. What I am trying to do is have video record on triggers and only have a pic taken when in the hotspot, is this possible ?.

All, currently have two profiles setup (1 and a hotspot). I have profile1 record when triggered and have the other hotspot profile take pics (no video) when inside the unmasked zone. The JPEGs are to be sent via email (this is tested and working fine when tested via test mode). The problem I...

Ok, got it thank you

All, So I made a stupid mistake. I recently changed ISP and when changing the IP through the camera via browser the camera locked up now I cannot gain access, what do I do ? DS-2CD3332-1 V5.2.5_141201

Can you recommend a vari-vocal Dahua with EXIR/Equivilant ?

Do you have any experience with this model, I am torn as I have a HIKI with EXIR and I am under the assumption EXIR is better than the IR emitters used in this one.
