    Assistance with Dahua Shutter Speed.

    My "Night Profile" for exposure is set to, Outdoor/Manual/ (1/120). The car in the attached pic is moving approx 30mph is a guess. There is still some blurring as you can see. What shutter speed would you all recommend to begin tweaking it? I am using a large IR illuminator as well. While...

    I have not volunteered for the project. Out of curiosity, how might audio recording laws effect people who have cams?

    Local police department deploys security cam volunteer database

    Do any members live in an area where the PD or Sheriff's Office have a volunteer database of cam owners? A local department in my area just made a database where cam owners can submit their name and address. The idea is cam owners can provide footage for cops when a crime is committed in the...

    2 IR illuminators and their differences

    I would love to see a comparison of an Axton or some high end illuminator vs an inexpensive one that draws the same electricity. I imagine the premium illuminators use the best LEDs.

    @SquareEyes what illuminator are you using? what exactly are you flushing with nitrogen? cleaning out the unit?

    2 IR illuminators and their differences

    I have 2 different CMVision models and both work well and are strong. I have no experience with Axton, but you could buy a few crappy CMs and trash them for the price of one Axton.

    DS-2CD2532F-I recently displays very dark vid

    My DS-2CD2532F-I suddenly has a very dark color. the screenshot below will be an example. i can adjust the brightness which helps, but if i adjust the brightness all the way i am thinking the pic at night via onboard IR will be crappy. any suggestions as to how to fix this are appreciated.

    Dahua Starlight question

    Thank you for the pics. My Starlight has a rusted female (jack) rj45 and I will most likely buy a new Dahua. I just was not sure if I neeeded Starlight since I have a big illuminator helping the cam out. You cannot beat the Starlight image quality for that price.

    Dahua Starlight question

    If I have a large IR illuminator, is there any reason to buy a Starlight model? My Starlight is great, but with a normal Dahua 4mp for example, will I notice any difference at night since I have lots of IR light available?

I am used to the standard Cat5e 4 twisted pairs. How do I figure out what Dahuas color go where in my new jack...

    feed live stream to youtube live?

    @GuiBou thanks. i was trying to find a somewhat user friendly version. i did see people mention software that would treat the ip cam as a USB cam, but i did not their success stories. why is this difficult? is it because youtube live will only accept certain feeds?

    ivms-4500

    I downloaded the Hikvision app, yet everytime I attempt to use it I am given a "data time out" error. The Hik cam works fine with IE and fine with IP Cam Viewer. I have the correct IP and port set in ivms-4500 configs. I specifically wanted to use ivms-4500 since it (i think) will support the 2...
