    TinyCam PRO with TP-Link Tapo C210

    First of all, thank you for your contribution Yes, sorry, you're right: it's not obvious at all, especially regarding the fact that many confuse LAN with WAN On my router I opened both port 554 and 2020, both connected to the LAN IP of my camera (192.168.0.118) The ports are open (tested with...

    TinyCam PRO with TP-Link Tapo C210

    No, it's not "obvious" which is why I asked. Many people, especially a noob on this forum as yourself, have no idea about some of the terms they use. And for the record, what makes a WAN IP accessible over the Internet is not that it's "static" but if it's "public"; even a "dynamic" WAN IP that...

    Multipule Motion SnapShots...

    Go to the Record tab and set BI to make JPEGs (Checkbox) when triggered and select how often it makes a Snapshot. You'll need to define the folder where these are stored in BI Settings -> Storage tab.

    Need camera suggestions - identifying license plates and faces of animal dumpers

    In addition to the suggestions below - and maybe as extra to the cameras / system suggested - maybe some game / trail cameras. Some of them can do a decent job of doing snapshots in sequence. If you have the ability to hide them in something, you can get close to the road at your entrance. IR...

    Need camera suggestions - identifying license plates and faces of animal dumpers

    I am a relative IP Cam noob so forgive me in advance! I handle general IT and building maintenance with a nonprofit Dog/Cat Rescue. Currently we are having a serious issue where animals are being dumped after-hours illegally, long story short, we don't take animals from the public, we take...

    Hey Guys, I'm a noob to BI but I have gotten my NVR running against 7 cameras within my home. I also have Code Project AI server running for the object detection and ALPR. It's running great but I have a few tweaks I have not figured out yet. OR if it's even possible? So here it goes... I...

    New to the world of LPR ... need some help

    It is powered by POE. You can use a POR switch or injector. You simply add this camera to OpenALPR and pay the monthly fee.

    New to the world of LPR ... need some help

    Hi Everyone, I am actually just picking up on this thread myself. Great advice for another Noob, does it need a power chord or a POE switch? How does it power? Also, how can i integrate it online with something like ALPR? (OpenALPR - Automatic License Plate Recognition)

    DS-2CD2T47G2P-LSU/SL - Disappointed with image quality

    ...to be a panoramic camera. The reason for this is increased rate of petty (and not so petty) theft in the area. I have tried: H.264, H.265,CBR/VBR, played around with WDR, HLS, you-name-it. The image is still bad. Or maybe I am a noob and don't get the settings right. Any advice would be useful.

    Thanks @mat200 We are thinking about cams at each of the 4 corners of the house, unless any experts here have other suggestions? I am a Noob at all this, but know one thing...I don't want to pay for subscription service. Thanks in advance.

    I've done some cursory research and seems I came to the right place (found several super useful posts from @wittaj ) I have an old Q-See system which I've run for almost 10 years and it recently died. Worked fine, though low resolution (and low end I know). Since I'm upgrading, I figure I...

    How to train a custom YOLOv5 model using CodeProject.AI Training for YoloV5 6.2 module

    Can anybody help answer the above question regarding training YOLO on pets? Can you train it (with sufficient pics) to identify an individual domestic animal (e.g., Spot), or just identify where it is a dog or cat, etc.? Sorry for the noob question, just getting into training custom models.

    Mini-Review - 5442-Z4E-S3 AKA B54IR-Z4E S3 - Replacement to the 5442-Z4E

    Regarding Blue Iris versus NVR, there is a big debate here on which is better. Personally I found the NVRs to be too clunky and not very user friendly and got to the point that I was reactive instead of proactive. I literally tested BI and knew within a few minutes it was better than any NVR I...

    Mini-Review - 5442-Z4E-S3 AKA B54IR-Z4E S3 - Replacement to the 5442-Z4E

    First time posting and quite the noob in this world but generally pretty technical so starting to get a handle around what good camera choices are. My house is set up pretty similar to Parlay's and would like to do something very similar to his set up so I am confident using the B54IR-Z4E S3 is...

    Surveillance Station considerations

    ...failing that, set it as ONVIF and some fine tuning you should be good to go. But BI is better overall, if the system is being installed and no noob isn't messing with it, it will just work, if the noob is messing with it, maybe the ease of SS may be the option. But like with everything after...

    New House, Noob questions about T180 with PTZ vs. T54IR with PTZ.

    I've recently bought a new house, and after trying my best to read and comprehend everything here I'm left with a few questions. House sits on an acre of sage brush.

    Glad to be here - I've learned enough to go from zero to having four Amcrest cameras and a couple of wyzecams running on BI. I've got a way to go yet though. One question - Who is Andy, and why does everyone buy their cams from him?
