Large amount of requests to config.amcrestcloud.com from IP4M-1041
Yeah, some will do that no matter how you have things set. Also, some will have different behaviors depending on how you have the DNS set. e.g., 0.0.0.0 or left blank will cause it to seek whatever DNS is hard coded. In the camera's set up for services, there's a disable checkbox at the... -
Linux Software Needed to Repeat RTSP
OBS? Not sure how you'd do the 1-5 minute limit but likely can in some way.- Mike A.

More issues connecting over phone app.
Glad that you got it figured out. Maybe an update to Windows/Defender that changed something. Not an issue letting it through on your internal network. Needs to be open if you want to access it.- Mike A.

Looking for low-light camera recommendation to use as navigation aid on a boat
My Color4K cams are older and don't have those profiles so no direct experience using them on that cam. I've only tried them to test briefly on one cam that I have and that was within a schedule. Not sure if you can set them up for customization and general selection outside of that. I think...- Mike A.

Looking for low-light camera recommendation to use as navigation aid on a boat
For use on a boat as in this thread or more generally? As talked about here, under Exposure I'd try mode set to auto to start. That will automatically adjust shutter and gain to try to get the best image. The downside of that is that without much light it will tend to take shutter speed low...- Mike A.

Set Time Date Text To Automatically Change Based On Background Color?
Varies by camera. Some have nothing. Seems like I recall some trying to do it automatically in the same way. Some have the option to set font attributes and you can choose black/white/colors/outlines but I don't think it changes automatically depending on background. The option's usually in... -
Automatic IP address change?
To keep it from changing things: Camera settings > Video > Configure > check the box for Skip initial MAC, etc., reachability tests. -

GROK-3
I tried it some the other day and it does seem better than the others for what I've tested. But I've found that you need to be careful about taking what any of these things give you at face value. They all seem to just make up shit a lot of the time and tend to present it in an authoritative... -
More issues connecting over phone app.
OK, that's key then. So you can't get to the web interface of BI at all via computer or phone? Or connect via the app either? Look under BI Status > Connections. Do you see connection attempts listed when you try to log in? If not, then you're not getting to the server. (I think the...- Mike A.

More issues connecting over phone app.
If you can't do that then you know nothing with the VPN, DDNS, etc. on the remote side. By "access" do you mean using the app or from the phone at all (i.e., phone browser)? If the app, do you still get alerts? Do you get any errors on the phone when you try to get to it? Any errors showing...- Mike A.

Looking for low-light camera recommendation to use as navigation aid on a boat
I've hooked up IP cams to my Lowrance units just to see it work and I could but I've not tried it on the water at night. I'm guessing that you're referencing this thread...- Mike A.

wan ip changed to private, can't access cameras remotely
Looks like you are behind CGNAT. 100.73.x.x is within that reserved space. The 38.95.x.x likely is an internal address used by your provider. The 104.234.x.x likely is the outside-facing address for your provider's network. If you search the full IPs you should find the host names/networks...- Mike A.

wan ip changed to private, can't access cameras remotely
I'd warn against it too. Definitely don't want to run or leave it up long that way. Test it, take the forward down. I'm assuming so, but just to be clear, you can get to your BI server from another machine on you local network? Also, in a command window run tracert 8.8.8.8 and post what that...- Mike A.

wan ip changed to private, can't access cameras remotely
If your external WAN address is 104.x.x.x, then you don't have a "private" IP. That is in public address space, not in one of the reserved "private" IP address spaces. May well be something else going on beyond that. If you know how to do it you could try to quickly set up a temporary port...- Mike A.

104.x.x.x looks to be your WAN/Internet IP. That's not in "private" address space. What does your router show as its external/WAN IP?- Mike A.

Plane down in DC
Not sure how this compares to what's currently in use but: https://ntrs.nasa.gov/api/citations/20030063076/downloads/20030063076.pdf -
Plane down in DC
Looks like the helicopter was just coming down the river. That's a typical route. If the reports are accurate, seems the plane was supposed to come in on the main runway (19) originally but that was changed to 33 at the last minute. The helicopter was told to go behind the plane. If the... -
Plane down in DC
Looks like the helicopter was headed south. From the video I was thinking that it was coming up river. I just heard that apparently they changed the approach of the plane at the last minute to that runway. Helicopter was supposed to go behind it. -
Plane down in DC
Not sure that's right. There are only I think 3 runways there. All are regularly used depending on which way they're landing that day from what I've seen and flying in and out of there. Big jets come in/out on 19. Smaller aircraft on the other two shorter runways. The plane would have... -
Plane down in DC
That's what it looks like to me too. Or the plane came down on top of it. Either way, probably shouldn't have been there in line with final approach. -
Plane down in DC
I think the helicopter probably just fucked up. Wrong place at the wrong time. PAT-25 was the number. 3 onboard. It was a personnel transport out of Ft. Belvoir which is down the river. I'd guess probably headed to the Pentagon which is not far from there. Very clear night here tonight... -
Plane down in DC
Don't think that it was police. Said to be a Sikorsky UH-60 aka Blackhawk which likely would be military. I saw a tail number reported for the helicopter but it was in live chat and can't get back to it now. There are a ton of different helicopters in the air around here for all kinds of... -
New PTZ Dome Camera needed, massive backlit
Look for one with AI built in to more selectively trigger only on people/vehicles/animals. Most of the better Dahau/Hikvision/Axis/etc. cams will at this point so you can spec the camera as you want and just confirm that it has AI functions (IVS for Dahau, AcuSense for Hikvision, etc.). Should...- Mike A.

I need more hobbies.. Working on a PVC post discrete camera housing... (a better birdhouse)
Naaaa... just buried it. It's doing nothing but just standing there. Was years ago and it's gone nowhere. No lean or anything at all. Soil's different different places so YMMV I suppose but kinda doubt that you'd need to do much.- Mike A.
