    Review-Dahua IPC-HDW2231RP-ZS Starlight Camera-Varifocal

    Thank you. That's why I'm now looking at this 3-screw Dahua: IPC-HFW4231S. But I don't believe it's a starlight. This is so tough!! I don't want the bulk of the 2231 and mount, way too big

    I’m not concerned about spackling holes, I just don’t want cameras and mounts this big. Need to find some that fit my existing install and then I’ll be happy.

    Comparison of mini bullet HFW-4231E-SE with 3 other cameras

    What's the difference in these two models? And what is the mounting size? Thanks!

    Thanks. I see Andy has the IPC-HFW4239T-ASE bullet. Now I have to find the mounting size.

    Thanks @awsum10, Yes, I'm returning the Reolink's. They gave me an RMA, but want to make sure I get something that fits. Are you suggesting this one, for $80 each? I need 12 cameras that fit my existing drilled holes...

    Review-Dahua IPC-HDW2231RP-ZS Starlight Camera-Varifocal

    Guys - the 2231 mounting size (with or without the mounting bracket) is just way too big for my use. I had selected the Reolink bullet cameras because its mount size (B10/B9, 69MM) was an exact replacement for the previous SamsungSV cameras I had. Please don't flame me, but is there...

    Really? That’s good to hear. Reolink is still playing games with me on my return of 12 cameras.

    For VBR I don’t see it in the Reolink 410-5MP menu. I lowered the Bit Rate to 1024 just now to see what that would do.

    You guys are great. Thank you. I have a return request into Reolink and their support is trying to pretend that it’s my settings. I’m pushing them to just complete the return. 12 Dahua 2MP cameras at $130 each is pricey. Do you know anywhere they sell packs of these?

    Thanks you both. Yes I do have direct to disk and frame rate is 15FPS. This morning I was able to get BI CPU to 80% by reducing max bit rate to 4096 on all 12 cameras. So the Dahua 2MP daytime quality itself is good compared to Reolink 5MP?

    I might get killed for this, but looking to see how this compares to the Reolink 410-5MP. I just installed 12 of these! I’m not excited that 12 Reolink 410s max a new PC in Blue Iris to 100%. But the Reolink is 5MP and these Dahua are 2MP. And I don’t need separate IR lights for the Reolink...

    Oh man. So Amcrest and others are better for night time? I got this bundle from Reolink eBay so hopefully they would take it back if these settings don’t help

    I/O Error: 0

    I found 2 instructions. I will try tonight to see if it improves. One from Reolink on how to setup for that camera for BI, it’s on their blog. And another one form another poster about night time quality, who said the following: “A quick tip - when I first used the cameras I was disappointed...

    Darn I just bought 12 Reolinks 5MP to replace old cameras. and installed 5 so far. I get the i/o errors. Plus nighttime is grainy and jumpy working with BI! Any suggestions? I used http set to the ip that the Reolink app suggests

    BI console focus change to triggered camera.

    Can someone please help me? I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong. I’ve tried the settings above, but I can’t see any changes to a Viewing the Camera when motion is triggered on it. I can auto cycle through groups, but not when something is triggered for motion.
