    Second home set up in Blue Iris

    I don’t understand your question. You will have to have another license of BI to use it concurrently at two locations. Are you asking about hosting one BI instance at your home (or cloud) and then having all cameras from both locations connect back to a single instance? That’s a bad idea. If...

    Busy Night/morning

    I have dozens of these damn brown anoles all over my front and back patio shitting on everything. I hate these fuckers. Give me the green ones any day.

    PTZ LPR Help

    My Z12 does this as well. I think it’s a gain issue. I’ve never found a fix for it other than zooming out.

    Mini-Review - 5241-Z12E-S2 - Replacement for the 5241-Z12E

    You talking about the screw that tightens down so you can set the placement of where the camera is pointing to? I didn't have issues with the screw but I do have issues on how the camera mount "teeth" align. I've noticed when tightening down that screw, the camera will move some from where I...

    Is blocking the internet secure enough?

    Block them from connecting to the internet and putting them on their own VLAN is normally sufficient. You can block inter vlan routing for that vlan and see if you can still access them. That would further insulate that vlan from the rest of your network.

    ONVIF - Only Certain Areas & Alert Types

    Well your settings look close to mine except I use intrusion boxes. You might try deleting the cam from BI and then re-adding it.

    ONVIF - Only Certain Areas & Alert Types

    Yes. I wouldnt own them if they couldn’t. I use one exclusively for alerting me to people walking onto my driveway.

    Yes. I've never seen an issue with Dahua cams like you are having unfortunately.

    ONVIF - Only Certain Areas & Alert Types

    There are 3 different places you have to enable ONVIF in BI. Your pics in post #5 and #7 are two of them. You also need to go to the camera Alert tab and select for When "This camera is triggered" for alerts from ONVIF events. Also, back on the Trigger tab, when you hit the Configure button...

    Excessive CPU load with newer versions than 5.8.6.7 version of BI

    If you go down to D1 on your sub streams you will see a massive improvement. If you are running your substeams at 1MP/2MP then why have substreams turned on at all? Might as well disable them and just use a single stream.

    Weird case of infrared reflection

    It's been a while since I took one of these apart but is there no foam ring built into the dome either?

    Weird case of infrared reflection

    Gonna be tiny dust motes on the inside of the dome. You'd have to take it down, take the dome off, and clean it with a lint free cloth.

    Vlan question for many cameras.

    The physical media doesn't matter. One single cable can carry thousands/millions of VLANs. It's a limitation of the switch not the cable itself. For an AP, you assigned VLANs to the SSIDs. So you would have SSID "abc" on VLAN 1 and SSID "xyz" on VLAN 2. The switch port that AP connects to...

    Weird case of infrared reflection

    It’s dust/junk in the dome. I used to have those cameras years ago. Switched them all out for Dahua 5442s.

    Starlights with strange IP address

    Id try and reset them again. I’ve never seen a default Dahua cam that didn’t present the “choose your country” and ”create a password” boxes upon initial login.

    Starlights with strange IP address

    Where were these purchased? Factory reset Dahua cams will present you with the country/date page when connected to them via a browser and not a login screen. Sounds like they are not factory new cams.
