    2021 April Dahua Full Color Camera

    I know I know… but I really want a good 8mp eyeball dahua. I have some of their 8mp and the quality makes it hard to look at the 4mp - 4mp is a noticeable drop in quality to me. If only that 8mp sensor would improve for better night time quality. I’d pay good money for this if it existed.

    Yes and yes. It’s more powerful than any consumer grade router you can buy.

    Get a small x86 machine with dual gig network ports, put openwrt on it. It’s amazing, better than any other consumer router you’ll buy. Get a couple of the netgear wax610 access points (they are very good and WiFi 6). This is what I bought: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B086MK4YB8

    Do any of you actually use Dahua P2P for external access to your cams?

    It frightens me to think about using Dahua P2P. I turn p2p off and access the cams remotely with my WireGuard VPN. But I saw another thread mentioning using P2P which made me wonder, do any of you use it? Do you have any insight into how secure it might be?

    Price increase for Dahua & Hikvision( All products)

    Prices on everything are going up. And taxes are going up in the USA. Ammo has more than doubled in prices. My home prices are going up. Even my Starbucks drink went up 30 cents. It’s not a good time to hold cash. Invest in IP cams

    Hikvision ColorVu + 4K (DS-2CD2087G2-L)

    I ordered two IPC-HDW3849H-AS-PV and they are pretty bad. At first they seem like great cams but they start to completely fail as soon as there’s high information density on the screen. The cams will reboot and flicker. I have a long thread on this if you look at my history.

    Hikvision ColorVu + 4K (DS-2CD2087G2-L)

    I have noticed the same. For the first time I’m returning two dahua cams. I hope some newer cams come out with good specs that actually perform. Seems they’ve tried to cheap out lately and sell cams with decent specs but don’t live up to them.

    Smart PSS Error Help

    Smartpss has been pretty buggy for me but mostly works. You might try to completely remove smartpss and reinstall the latest version. Outside of that, can you install smartpss on a second computer to see if you are able to reproduce the issue or not?

    @wittaj I don’t use an nvr. I have an “unraid” storage array. I configure the cams to write out the videos and jpegs to my storage when there’s motion. Home Assistant monitors for new files and will run them through DeepStack to detect humans. If a humans is found, I get the image sent to my...

    IPC-HDW3849H-AS-PV loses connection/reboots during the day

    I ordered two of these cams. I just connected the 2nd cam and it has the same issues. I believe there’s a flaw with the camera hardware or firmware. The issue only happens when there’s high information density being recorded, for example when pointed at trees. Inside I have no issues. Both cams...

    @samplenhold im sorry, I didn’t mean it that way. I’m definitely going to try it once I swap in the new cam. Thanks again for all the help from all of you. what’s weird is that when the lights are on at night I have non issues. Only during the day.
