    The ideal camera for my bird box

    In my locale 40 acre lots are about average. I am up about 3500 feet. You know a lot of people think of the desert as a barren wasteland but it actually is extremely diverse in both its flora and fauna. There are many beautiful parks in Az., but because of its location near the border, I rarely...

    The ideal camera for my bird box

    So, I didn't expect this kind of activity so soon. Early this morning I discovered that there were actually 3 owls, each nesting in separate nest boxes. One male and two females. The females are each brooding an egg. Box at the top left is where the male Western Screech owl roosts. This box has...

    The ideal camera for my bird box

    Hi, Two reasons the entry hole is high up with no perch or etched lines in a screech owl box. You don’t want birds like the Gila woodpecker harassing the owls. They need good purchase to successfully accomplish that.The owls have no trouble going in or out. As far as the fledglings go, it’s...

    I need a technical Sherlock Holmes on this one!

    Blue Iris is not an option for me. I have all Mac equipment save my NVR which is a Dahua OEM. Your audio settings are the default for that ip cam but for my set-up I had to use G.711A and 8000k otherwise I could hear the sound when streaming but when downloading clips, there was no audio track...

    I need a technical Sherlock Holmes on this one!

    I think this might be a bandwidth issue. I am reducing bandwidth on some of my cameras by choosing h265 on cams that have that feature, cutting the resolution to 720 , and the frame rate to 15 to see if it makes a difference . Any other tips?

    Should unbranded Dahua NVR’s and ip cams be plug and play with branded Dahua equipment?

    Thank you for the reply! So if plug and play does not work, change the ip of the camera to conform to the NVR using the config tool, chose a user and password and add the video sub stream info? I don’t want to go Onvif because I might lose some functionality. Am I missing something?

    Should unbranded Dahua NVR’s and ip cams be plug and play with branded Dahua equipment?

    Generally are unbranded Dahua NVR’s plug and play with unbranded ip cameras? I am referring to equipment from places like Nelly’s or Security camera King or Linovision. Thanks, Tubac

    Yes over and over! I read somewhere that the new Hikvision cameras have some kind of anti theft device that will not work on Dahua built in Poe ports. When I find the article I will post to this thread.

    Thanks for all the input. I have two other Hikvision cameras , both are the same model purchased about 1 year ago and both were not a problem to add to the NVR.

    I was able to add cameras on the 192.168.0.1 scheme, but the cameras on the built in Poe switch (10.1.1.xxx) will add, but are offline. Used the manual add feature. What am I missing? Version is 1.0 Thanks, Tubac

    It actually asks for a QuickTime plug in. When I log into the NVR, all the cameras come up fine including this one cam. Anyone know a solve for this? Thanks, TUBAC
