    New member looking for advice/assistance

    ...a while, I wasn't terribly happy with my cameras being on their system so I decided to do my own local system I watched a ton of YouTube, "The Hookup", and decided to install my own system run by Blue Iris. I bought an Annke for the front of the house and the remainder are ReoLink. I'm...

    How to build a functional system that deters crime?

    ...forced entry of course. between midnight-6 am it is probably only 10-20 cars on average. 300-400 per day. When I watched the Smart Home Hookup, he recommended the Axis 3248-LVE as best in class @ $1100 (now 3265-LVE). Considering our budget would you recommend this type of best-in-class...

    Send Pushover notifications with pictures and hyperlinks

    Dumb question how do i see that for the AI? i'm a bit of a noob and only started tinkering with BI 2 days ago. My setup is this. I have 5 reolink cams, 1 811a 1trackmix 1 823a and 2 duo2 all hooked up via ethernet to a poe switch and then linked to a ethernet switch. i have tp link mesh which is...

    Send Pushover notifications with pictures and hyperlinks

    Reolinks are known to be problematic with BI. And most here don't agree with the Hookup... I use a combination of the the Pushover app with the API and the Pushover email and they are quick. If your email is delayed 20-30 seconds, then that is an issue within your network and/or setup and/or...

    Blue Iris Screen Flashing

    ...Of course, I believed that I was super-careful with the cable termination and install because I wanted to avoid this situation. The aerial hookup was intended to be permanent. The other end, however, is actually 'temporary' as I haven't yet routed it through the short conduit and into the...

    Dahua SunriseSunset App / Camera Day/Night Profiles Question - Help tuning a plate camera

    ...good amount of time on google without much success, sadly. Picture settings for night: Most of my values were based on the example The Hookup channel on youtube gave, then just messing with things in an attempt to get a better picture. I ended up with 1/4000 shutter at night as sometimes...

    New member needing some insights

    Avoid Reolink. Avoid the hookup. You need a full fledged PC for BI, not some fanless under performing PC that will cause you grief from overheating. This PC: Elitedesk Add another 8gb of ram to it. Add in a WD purple hard drive or two, and your on your way. It will use approximately 30-35 watts...

    Which Computer Do I Buy To Run Blue Iris On? What Do You Use?

    I actually read it somewhere on Reddit. It was the only time I seen anything about fiber optic internet. I remember reading a comment to the poster that if he was on fiber internet that he would need a poe. I went back to look for it because I was going to link it here and now I can't find...

    Which Computer Do I Buy To Run Blue Iris On? What Do You Use?

    ...ran fiber instead of ethernet cable from the camera to your computer/NVR then you would need adapters to go from fiber to ethernet, but anything on the provider side is irrelevant. Where are you reading that it says you need that and that Reolinks are good LOL - is it The Hookup on YouTube...

    Is Dahua still the top dog?

    You heard wrong LOL. I don't see Reolink ever passing Dahua. Don't believe everything you see on YouTube LOL. The Hookup gets a nice commission from Reolink, as do the other "influencers"....

    Worlds First Review - Dahua DH-IPC-PFW5849-A180-E2 - Dual Lens 180 Degree Full Color 4K (8MP Stitched) Camera

    One of the comparisons The HookUp made was that the Dahua turret version is a ball joint for roll positioning. Browsing Jingdong, I see that Dahua experimented with a non-roll version like the Hikvision 180. The price gets me..... $135nzd for a 2mp*2 camera? That's $83usd.

    Solar powered remote ipcamera

    ...similar project based on @TRLcam posts above. I am going with a 24 vdc solar panel and batteries. Solar from Amazon and batteries from battery hookup. They have the K2B24V10EB 9.6 ah for $49. I am getting <8 ah from them so will be using two. I went with a Centopto din rail POE switch from...

    Looking for a new camera to replace my rlc-423

    Hi wittaj. I didn't get that impression for my use case. Which was least motion blur at night. Reolink tended to perform poorly compared to others. And, it seemed he did ok reviews of color night and panaromic cameras. I did search high and low for other camera comparisons by other...

    Starlink router

    Well, I got the RT-AX86U Pro running. But I don’t know if I did it right and I haven’t got it hookup for remote access yet. I gave me an option of hooking up DHCP, PPoE, or Static IP. I couldn’t get Static IP to work. So I used the DHCP. Next, do some research. I just found out that this router...

    I just read that forum, I actually didn't watch the hookup. I was trying to do my own research based on what Amazon was throwing at me. I converted the reolink to PNG. Still don't have pictures of myself or the other views. I had both zoomed out all the way as I couldn't find a conversion to...

    After watching his video, it sounds like he did a lot of research on the subject before making the YouTube video.

    NVR Swap 4xxx to 5xxx, No Cameras on List

    The cameras all worked fine on my 4xxx POE NVR, the issue is with this 5xxx NVR. I have previously been able to hookup a laptop to the POE port to connect and get a DHCP assignment to the 10.1.1.x range from the internal switch on the NVR, and subsequently access a camera with an IP in that...

    New house build. Overwhelmed with options…

    ...Do some smart home devices like light switches and blind controls and temp sensors and garage door openers and security sensors on and on allow for wired hookup or are they mostly wireless? Would really like to give Home Assistant a shot at some point… Any thoughts much appreciated. Thanks

    I agree you can really see it in the hookups video. Surprised wildcat didn't say anything. You can change the rez but then you are not getting the full 8MP.
