    Mini outdoor PTZ : DS-2DE4A220IW-DE

    As I mentioned above, I ordered the unbranded version of the DS-2DE4A425IW-DE on the evening of Nov, 7th. It actually arrived yesterday on morning of Nov. 11th. This was less than 4 full days... from China. I could not believe my eyes when I saw the DHL truck coming up my driveway! It works...

    Mini outdoor PTZ : DS-2DE4A220IW-DE

    These guys have been great thus far. The camera price was a bit more though, $395 US, non branded. https://monitech.m.en.alibaba.com?tracelog=alisupplier_sns_minisite

    Mini outdoor PTZ : DS-2DE4A220IW-DE

    I just ordered the same one last night so the race is on! Your guy was out of stock but I found another seller on Alibaba. I'll let you know how it goes.

    You gotta see this Mini 4MP Auto-Tracking PTZ

    How quiet or loud are the servos in this DS-2DE4A425IW-DE camera? I don't want to have one bolted to the side of my home set for Smart Tracking keeping me up at night if it is one of the noisier ones. Can anyone compare it to a comparable Dahua Auto Tracking unit?

    Mini outdoor PTZ : DS-2DE4A220IW-DE

    Sorka: I might give this DS-2DE4A425IW-DE 4mp one a try! How is it working out for you so far? Can you (or anyone else) attest to how loud or how quiet the servos are on this camera, especially compared to comparable Dahua models? I don't want this thing keeping me up at night with it bolted...

    Dahua SD59225U-HNI

    I'm glad you're all setup. My concern for noise is so critical that I'm going to have to hold off until I can find a video clip with audio demonstrating how loud this camera is. Dude, my man-cave is done.... But I'm probably a lot older than you.

    Dahua SD59225U-HNI

    tibimakai: There are a few things that you could do to eliminate the vibrations from transferring to your home. I am going to be faced with this very same situation so here are some things to consider: The PVC pipe which appears to be protecting your wire could easily be replaced with an...

    Dahua SD59225U-HNI

    Good idea. I've done this sort of thing in the past when isolating vibration for camera mounts in helicopters for vibration but it would work for sound too as you know. Silicone is better than rubber for absorbing sound or vibration. Thanks.

    Dahua SD59225U-HNI

    ... but what's the fun of having such a cool camera if you can't cuddle with it at night? Okay, I'll buy one but it will probably end up in my back yard. BUT, I have elk, BABY elk, so it will get a good workout! I'll post some shots. Thanks again for weighing in.

    Dahua SD59225U-HNI

    Yikes! I just ran across this video of the sounds made by the Dahua SD49225T-HN. This is like 3CPO :) This might be a real deal breaker for my application. For manual PTZ movement it wouldn't matter but if you had your Auto-tracking active and had this camera anywhere near where you sleep it...

    Dahua SD59225U-HNI

    Okay, thanks for clarifying this. The rubber mount for isolation is a good idea. I have some silicone suspension mounts that might work for this.

    Dahua SD59225U-HNI

    oops. I just looked at your link. It seems to show the same mount that I just sent to you. Is this the one that you didn't like? One last quetion: Is this camera noisy? I've seen comments about it being noisy in that you can hear all of the little servos with each and every movement. The...

    Dahua SD59225U-HNI

    I see your point. The one in this picture actually looks pretty nice and is very low profile but I'm not sure where to buy one:

    Dahua SD59225U-HNI

    Okay, thanks. I'll have to keep digging. I guess the easiest thing to do would be to just buy one with the logo from a reputable seller but the prices and what's included (like a wall mount) are all over the place.

    Dahua SD59225U-HNI

    Great! Then you're all set. I've had mine for a couple of years and never thought to consider PoE+ at that time. Live and learn. Do you happen to have any info regarding that last question of mine? I want to place an order this morning for one of these cameras but I'm still not sure about the...

    Dahua SD59225U-HNI

    Hi Tibimakai: My 24 port switch also provides over 100 watts, so I figured that I would be okay, but when I looked into it a little deeper I read that the most wattage provided to any individual port would be just 15.5 watts and not qualify for "PoE+" status. It might be worth checking the...

    Dahua SD59225U-HNI

    It would be a real headache to have to work that power supply brick into my setup. My 24 port switch box will deliver 15.4 watts for PoE but the Dahua specs state that this camera needs 23 watts for the camera WITH the IR lights. So unfortunately my box will not work with IR on. BUT, I should...

    I think I'll give it a try and post back when I'm up and running. Nighty nite.

    Dahua SD59225U-HNI

    I see. I am looking to buy one of these cameras with the wall mount and in English and upgradeable. I am hoping that the camera will run properly with only POE from my switch.

    SD59225U-HNI latest new firmware.

    I am shopping for this camera (SD59225U-HNI) and see them advertised both with and without the Dahua logo yet in the case of 'no logo' they still state that the firmware can be upgraded. So, would this mean that the official upgrade files from Dahua would still work with a non-logo camera or...

    Dahua SD59225U-HNI

    I was already to hit the buy button on this Dahua SD59225U camera but wanted to visit the Dahua site first to see if they still offer them and if they have firmware files available, etc. I cannot find any info on Dahua's own website mentioning this camera. Any idea why this could be? I have...

    Good point. I was wondering if that might work. I'll give it a try.

    Blue Iris UI3

    Well that was easy enough! Thank you. I did have cookies disabled, as I typically do. I appreciate your help and all of your efforts with this. This is a great addition to the wonderful world of Blue Iris.

    Blue Iris UI3

    I am so glad that I discovered UI3! It works very well for me and is a great convenience. Quick question: When I started using this a while back I was able to change the "TIMEOUT" setting to "0", which of course allowed me to monitor my cameras without a timeout. That setting remained at "0" and...

    BI Android App - Cannot reboot or restart camera

    Thanks Fenderman. I am usung a POE bullet cam and it does make sense that I can't reboot a camera that I cannot connect to. I have a feeling that if I was at home and was able to recycle the camera's power it would come back online, as it has in the past. I was hoping that BI might be able to...
