    DeepStack Case Study: Performance from CPU to GPU version

    I tried DeepStack with a i5 6500. 4 MP images were timing out after 15 seconds. I moved to the GPU version using an RTX 3060 which then was taking 250 ms. That's quite an improvement. I then moved to use the sub-stream from the camera and it's 25-50ms.

    UPS Wasn't enough, now I'll never lose camera footage

    That sounds pretty reasonable. I was debating air vs liquid cooling. There are pros and cons for each. Some coworkers have liquid cooled ones and they are always breaking down with coolant issues, etc. But they last longer if maintained, it is claimed.

    UPS Wasn't enough, now I'll never lose camera footage

    If you don't mind, what did that cost? I had a few quotes for propane versions last year and they were insane.

    How to install Cameras in Vinyl Vented Soffit.

    I have this exact type of soffit material. It is not secured at the ends and just floats between some U channel. It's a pain to work with, especially from the attic. For my install, I drilled a 2" hole though it and mounted a pendant mount on a piece of 1x6 that spans the joists. I screwed the...

    360 cameras with dewarped streams?

    B&H Photo is the only place I'd order from if I were buying one for home use. They aren an authorized retailer of everything they sell, I believe. I've purchased a number of other things from them and they've always been great.

    360 cameras with dewarped streams?

    They are. We get them from ADI since we have a branch that's in that business, but they aren't cheap either way.

    Access 10.x.x.x subnet from 192.x.x.x

    That sounds like the NVR isn't routing traffic from the LAN through it to your camera segment.

    360 cameras with dewarped streams?

    We use Axis 180 degree ones at work and they do dewarp well.

    IPC-T5442T-ZE missing zoom

    Great thanks! I want to use the BI app from the attic to dial everything in since using a web interface from a phone is terrible. I plan to set it and then never adjust it.

    Thanks. That did work. Any way to get it working in BI?

    IPC-T5442T-ZE missing zoom

    I got an EmpireTech IPC-T5442T-ZE via Amazon from the most recent sale. I'm trying to configure it, but there is no UI for the varifocal / zoom. Trying to zoom in BI also doesn't work. This is right out of the box.

    EmpireTech 6 Years Anniversay, New Office New Start

    Can you post a link to that PDF or will you do so here when the sale goes live? Speaking of which, I'd like a camera with great low-light sensitivity without IR illumination (since it will be behind a window.) Which model is best for that?

    New Amcrest AD410 doorbell Cam Review

    Feit Doorbell

    According to the spec sheet, it can handle up to 122 degrees. That's much better than some others. I have several Feit products and they are all pretty much garbage, however.

    Why I Like Redundant Views/Multiple Cam Views

    Interesting. I'm considering putting a camera in my dormer. I may do that after seeing this.

    Mounting SD49425XB-HNR

    Further, the Hikvision version of the PFA111 is not compatible with the Dahua one. The spacing is different, although you can make it work with some grinding. Best to get a PFA111. A number of mounts on Amazon mention they work with Dahua cameras, but the ones with the solid pin and two screws...

    Mounting SD49425XB-HNR

    As a followup and should anyone in the future be curious: I purchased the Dahua PFA111 (Hanging Mount Adapter) and Dahua PFA113 (Metal tube for camera pendant mount 17") and received them today. I should have guessed based on the price of the PFA113 that I was getting more than one, although...

    Mounting SD49425XB-HNR

    That's what it looks like, thanks. I'll order it from Amazon and try it out. I already have a mounting plate from a Hikvision bracket. If it works, great, if not I'll order the PFB300C.

    Mounting SD49425XB-HNR

    Thanks, but 17" is too tall. Unless I can use it in place of the pole that comes with the PFB300C.

    Mounting SD49425XB-HNR

    I purchased a SD49425XB-HNR from EmpireTechAndy. It seems to be a nice camera. I'm having issues getting what I need to mount it. I understand one can get a PFB300C and PFA111. But that pole is not long enough for my application. A contractor drilled into the eaves incorrectly so I'm right up...

    I see the Pfa111 uses British threading. Anyone know where to get pipe threaded like that in the US?

    2021 Memorial Day Promotion

    I forgot to check Thursday night on Amazon, but I was glad that the two I wanted (IPC-T5442TM-AS and SD49425XB-HNR) were still on sale! This is my first foray into Dahua.

    Price of conduit.

    Yeah I needed a 2x4x10 pressure treated a few weeks ago. It was literally 2x the price at HD that it was when I was working on my last project in early 2020.

    Does Ring Really Suck This Much?

    I understand. I'm just posting based on my experience with two Pros. They worked fine with my old Apple Air Port router and my new UniFi access points. They likely don't like mesh routers, I've read, so I don't have mine in mesh mode.

    Does Ring Really Suck This Much?

    I have two Ring Pros and I have no problems connecting. Your WiFi is likely the issue.

    Price of conduit.

    I get stuff from a local supply house and I get random prices. Sometimes they give me prices that are cheaper than HD and sometimes they are more. Who knows.

    Move the camera? Turn off the IR and use an external illuminator?
