    Poor camera, poor camera setup example : "Caught on Camera: Armed Thieves Fail to Steal GMC Truck Protected by .. "

    So the question is, was a report filed with the local authorities? If not, I smell a rat

    We got 4 yapper style miniature Schnauzers. They bark at everything and everyone. Their bark will awake the dead with their wailing

    3am TikTok Pranking Teens Get Shot, & Armed Homeowner Is Arrested In Virginia : Colion Noir

    That's a pretty careless assumption on your part. Being awaken by someone or ones making a ruckus and trying to go through my door at 3 am you better believe I'm going to defend myself. It has nothing to do with being high strung or being strung out on drugs.

    Dahua NVR awkward playback of footage

    I use the mobile app to review events quickly. I use it on Android. I just slide down when I get a notification, click the event and it goes right to the event. When I click back, it takes me to the event list to review other recent events.

    The Typical picture of a Perp on Nextdoor-type Apps with Consumer Grade Cameras like Ring, Nest, Arlo, Canary, Wyze, etc.

    Top photo is another photo of the monitor screen. :facepalm: May as well just not have cameras

    The Typical picture of a Perp on Nextdoor-type Apps with Consumer Grade Cameras like Ring, Nest, Arlo, Canary, Wyze, etc.

    I see what they're doing here. Look at the upper left of the top photo. Not only are they shooting a still of the monitor screen, but they are digitally zooming in to a smaller ROI to crop out the part of the building (and make everything bigger in the ROI). :facepalm: A proper still taken...

    Here's one for you, from our area taken from Facebook. Can you identify any features of these individuals? And this particular spot is known to be a high crime area. EDIT: And spelling and grammer seems to be an issue for the reporting agency

    I love the humor. Always a good one-liner or two in every episode

    Reacher series - Anyone watch?

    I get it, but what percentage of the viewers will actually know about ballistics? I would venture not many. To each their own. My wife and I enjoy it together and it keeps me in her good graces when I happen to suddenly "find" a new camera :rofl:

    Reacher series - Anyone watch?

    You're getting too deep into factual details. I'm critical in subjects that I know well too. Like when a chevy starts and drives away sounding like a Ford. I know an 80's to 90's Ford starter motor sound quite well - it's very distinctive Have to get past the details to enjoy the show. It's...

    Reacher series - Anyone watch?

    Try what we did, watch season 3 first because most of the premise is laid out already. It was easier to grasp. Had we started in order with season 1, I don't know if we would be still watching or not. Season 2 is so far less interesting than Season 3 or 1 - those were both great seasons. Seemed...

    Reacher series - Anyone watch?

    We saw the 2 movies with Tom Cruise and then started watching the series. We somehow watched season 3 before watching season 1 and 2. My wife and I have become big fans of this series. We just finished up season one last night and will start watching season 2 tonight. Does anyone know if they...

    Lorex marketing sure does work

    That's fine by me. I already have the Lorex cameras, and they would only sit in a box unused once replaced. Why not list them and get some cash towards new cameras?

    Lorex marketing sure does work

    I have been selling a few cameras that have either been replaced or don't do well for my application (lots of low light at night). I listed a Empiretech 4KT, a Empiretech 4KX 6mm, a few DAHUA DH-IPC-HDW5231RN-Z 2mp cameras and a Lorex 4K 8mp camera which was replaced by another camera. Anyway...

    Can I replace my lorex nvr with a dahua nvr? (and still use my lorex cameras)

    My Lorex N882A63B 16 channel NVR has 320 Mbps max spec, now whether it can actually do that bandwidth is another issue. I do know that most cameras on this NVR are limited to a max bitrate setting of 6144 Kbps, which though discovery, I found out is really not enough for most cameras 4MP and...

    WTS SOLD EmpireTech IPC-B54IR-Z4E-S3

    I think the issue might be price. Not saying it isn't worth it, but most that would buy a camera with no warranty, typically are looking for a better price, like 35 -50% off price new. I have a crap load of cameras that I'm having a hard time selling even with 52% off normal price. Money is tight

    Southern California homeowner finds hidden camera disguised with fake grass in his bushes

    A wonderful Arlo unit! I don't think the homeowner has anything to worry about. The resulting capture is likely crap anyway

    And even in daylight, the footage is useless. Can't tell the make or model of vehicles, cannot identify any of the perps. This is one camera forced to do the job of at least 2 cameras. I'd say at least 3 though to cover the area.
