    I really like my Amcrest AD410, but I'm ready for a PoE option

    Thanks I just started reading that thread. I saw where it doesn't have WDR or BLC etc. This would be a deal breaker for me in my location/FOV. Maybe it was addressed and I haven't gotten to that point in the thread.

    I really like my Amcrest AD410, but I'm ready for a PoE option

    Something that's a similar size to the AD410 that support PoE is what I'm looking for. Also, it needs to work with Blue Iris. It's been a couple of years since I looked into doorbell cameras. Would appreciate any replies that can suggest PoE options. I pre-wired this area with the expectation...

    UI3 timeline controls

    @bp2008 I checked the UI3 help file but didn't find keyboard commands for navigating the timeline view to quickly jump from one alert to the next. I know I must be missing it, just need help finding it. Thanks!

    Continuous Sub + Triggered storage requirements

    If I have 16 cameras all using substreams with D1 (704x480) resolution, using Continuous Sub + Triggered, would this calculation be somewhat accurate? The Equivalent Bitrate number does seem to change when I select different resolutions.

    The case for using the SSA backlight setting

    I didn't consider that since I only use it during the day with fast shutter speeds. Have you seen issues?

    The case for using the SSA backlight setting

    Yes, before I tried it on my cameras, I watched that video. I would agree that on some of my cameras and specific lighting conditions, the result looks a little unnatural, which I accept as the point of using the setting.

    The case for using the SSA backlight setting

    I have several new cameras from Andy and they are awesome! Tremendous upgrades for all my cameras from only 3 years ago. A new to me setting available is SSA backlight. My FOVs almost all include areas of bright sun and shade due to my surroundings. Selecting SSA seems to really improve the...

    Dahua day/night switch utility - DahuaSunriseSunset

    It works reliably but it's just tedious to set the times month to month considering the different sunrise and sunset times throughout the year. The API calls allow you to automate the Day/Night switch based on the sunrise/sunset... daily. I ended up giving up on the API calls since using them...

    Zone settings help

    @wittaj I think I'm getting the zones better dialed in. Curious why it shows Motion_ABC when I'm using zone crossing B-C?

    I'll keep trying things. Would it help to have Zone A filled completely? That used to be a thing, right?

    Zone settings help

    It's a 54IR. The onboard AI misses as well. Turning the camera to the left won't help. Large shrubs completely obscure the street. However, this may be something self-inflicted. I spent this afternoon trying to use B-C zones and I'm getting zero triggers. For example, the zones below don't...

    Zone settings help

    I have a challenging situation. In the yellow area, I'd like to trigger/alert vehicles. It's a narrow window in the FOV. In the orange area, I'd like to trigger/alert people and vehicles. I typically use 2 zone crossing for triggers, but the vehicles are generally fast moving and I'm missing...

    Storing snapshots on a local NAS using the new GUI struggles

    Sorry about that @TonyR. I'm usually better than that on here and failed to like your previous post. Didn't realize @FletcherHubbards is a bot? I ended up not using FTP. Instead, the storage option from the Picture section in the GUI worked for me.

    Is a D1 sub-stream less accurate than the main stream for AI analysis?

    Both NRs to 40? Vehicle crosses the FOV and occupies around 25% of the view.

    Is a D1 sub-stream less accurate than the main stream for AI analysis?

    Would the speed of the vehicle be a factor? Would a higher bit rate help in that scenario?

    Is a D1 sub-stream less accurate than the main stream for AI analysis?

    Reason I ask is that I recently changed mine from main to sub and I'm noticing that I'm getting a higher percentage of "Nothing Found" from a camera that views the street and captures vehicles using the same version of CPAI and the medium model size. Thanks

    Dahua day/night switch utility - DahuaSunriseSunset

    OK, thanks. I tried that and it did change to night mode, but it also changed several of my profile settings for exposure, backlight, etc. which is not gonna work for me. For example, it changed the day/night profile setting to auto instead of black-and-white, so I can't really see a result by...

    Dahua day/night switch utility - DahuaSunriseSunset

    I did a test on one camera by sending this command to it. Working Mode is set to Customized Scene. When I send the night command below, it doesn't change the camera to the Night profile. Any thoughts on what to check? I do get the "OK" response in the browser window. NIGHT...

    Dahua day/night switch utility - DahuaSunriseSunset

    Okay, I'm done. I can't get this new GUI to reliably switch Day/Night. Can someone please link the post by @bp2008 that explains how to get BI to do the API calls? Thanks!
