    Profiles and PTZ Presets

    Now that I've got cameras up, settings tweaked, etc, I wanted to start setting up profiles. The first step I took to this was to have a profile for 1 of 2 ptz presets for multiple cameras. I set another profile for the other preset. These will be unscheduled profiles. Profile 1 = Preset 1 = 4...

    Exhaust/Steam and Motion

    I've messed around with min object size, contrast and object size exceeds settings, yet I still can't seem to eliminate false positives with steam from an HVAC vent. The steam blows right to the camera almost every time. Other than a duplicate camera with less sensitive settings, what are some...

    Motion Detection - Oject size exceeds

    I actually JUST emailed Ken as to what the percentage refers to. It would make sense if it were the whole frame, but I just want to verify. Funny part is that I had started my email yesterday, along with a few other questions that I've been adding to it as to not bombard him with multiple...

    Duplicate cameras

    That worked! Weird. Must've been the renaming issue, although it didn't prompt me. Thanks.

    Duplicate cameras

    I've hunted around and can't seem to find a straightforward way to easily duplicate a camera and all of it's settings. I tried import/export, but that didn't seem to import anything at all. Is there an easier way other than going through the whole camera set-up each time?

    Standalone Java app for dedicated live view with Instant Replay

    Is it possible to rearrange or resize the cameras, as it appears in the second screenshot of the first post? Or was that a screenshot of multiple instances of the viewer?

    Modern upgrade for an older system?

    Anything? I'd be content with some sort of 12VDC relay option, even. Something that triggers an alert/alarm for 24 hour monitoring, and something that can arm/disarm. I've tried to Google different queries, but find nothing, which is surprising.

    Modern upgrade for an older system?

    Is there any sort of module that I can add on to an existing 35+ year old system that consists of keyswitch arm/disarm and multiple door plunge switches so that it can run as it always has, yet have redundant remote control and notification via an Android app? I don't know the brand or model of...

    Blue Iris Stopped Posting Short Alerts

    Yes! Mine just started doing this too after am update to 4.2.6.1. Did you find a solution? I don't have a camera icon next to ptz controls.

    Round junction boxes to mount DS-2CD2032-I Hikvision cameras

    Do the Hik turrets line up with the holes on the hardware store round PVC boxes? I know they make a few different sizes, so is there a preferred depth? I could've sworn I found a thread that had a few links to boxes on Amazon, but I'll be damned it I can find it now.

    Hik 2632 rj45 recable

    Following up on this... I traced out my wires and they are NOTHING close to either of the 2 Hik bulletins. I'll post the pinout when I get back. Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk

    Hik 2632 rj45 recable

    I have the "Value" series camera/model but the "Pro" series colors. I tried the Pro wiring and that's where I'm stuck. Unless someone else has any info, I'll try tracing out the old plug later tonight. Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk

    Anything more on this? I'm having the same damn issue. I'm positive that the wiring is correct.

    4MP Domes for the best solution?

    Thanks! I'll do a little more research on these. I'd really like to keep the transaction to this side of the pond, but maybe I'll try one or two of these on an antenna mast in the backyard! :)

    4MP Domes for the best solution?

    Good point. Ok, since I haven't researched much into NVR's, what would you suggest for an 8-cam system (with a little room for possible expansion in the future). You'd think... I have the worst luck with routers, and I usually don't skimp out on that part of the network as everything revolves...

    4MP Domes for the best solution?

    Thanks, but this camera is a) a bullet, b) 2MP, and c) no SD storage. Do they? I've read quite a few posts here that suggest otherwise because domes (and turrets) are round and don't offer much of a "home" for web spinning. Bullets tend to have corners and open areas, especially around the...

    4MP Domes for the best solution?

    Welp, I just had a long and detailed post that took me all day to write (in bits and pieces), and I just lost it because of an invalid web token... So, now that I am defeated, I will summarize and go enjoy a cold one! :very_drunk: I'm switching from a multi-bullet cam 460 TVL DVR system to a HD...

    Getting started

    What makes the Hik better over the Reo? I'm contemplating both.

    DS-2CD2032F-IW & Motion Area Designation

    I just picked up a DS-2CD2032F-IW to test out and play around with before going nuts with this brand. I'm trying to set the motion area, but notice is can't be done pixel-by-pixel. I can only click and drag to select a certain square, and that usually ends up doing multiple squares, if any at...
