    5442 Turrets in black

    I have a bunch of black turrets already installed and I was thinking it would be nice to pray paint them to match the house wall color. Was thinking I might be able to mask the wall and the lens and IR and spray paint them in place. Taking them down to paint them would be the other option...

    Blue Iris Log: Signal: restored

    I've recently put many of my outdoor cameras on a Nanostation-5AC --- LiteAP-GPS wireless link and I've been trying to troubleshoot drop outs. The dropouts are not just on Blue Iris but are affecting all of the remotely connected devices. Anyway, I am able to see in the log when the cameras...

    Review-EmpireTech 8MP 45x PTZ SD8C845FG-HNF

    Here it is on front of house. It’s a bit too obvious for my taste. Wanted to paint it brown but that voids the warranty. Not sure what those lookie-loos were pointing at.

    Here's a day clip showing how well the auto tracking stays on point even through the trees. I plan on trimming those trees a bit soon.

    Review-EmpireTech 8MP 45x PTZ SD8C845FG-HNF

    I've had this camera for a while now and its my favorite. One thing I could never get working was the IR/white light setttings. They don't seem to stick for me.

    Buried Cat5 to front of driveway

    Thanks for all the replies. Sounds like I'd be safe to run two cables along the pipe. Maybe do a few inches of dirt between the pipe and cable do avoid vibrations. I do plan on putting a small switch down at the front driveway for "expansion" = More cameras.

    Buried Cat5 to front of driveway

    Yeah I'm having to repave my concrete driveway. They want 9$/sft for high PSI concrete with rebar. They cheaped out on the first concrete and its falling apart (was done before I owned the house) Look at that pic and now imagine how much its going to cost me.

    Buried Cat5 to front of driveway

    We are doing a landscaping project and the plan calls for a sprinkler zone down to the front of the house where I want to place LPR camera. Distance is about 180 ft -- see pic. Was thinking it would be nice to run cat5 in the trench where they are putting the sprinkler pipe which would make...

    Review- 5MP IR Fixed focal Dome Lite Network Camera

    https://www.dahuasecurity.com/products/productDetail/108467?from=rss they updated this model and moved the IR to outside of the dome. I think all else is the same. Plan on getting the new version and will compare with the old version.

    Weathercam FTP image resolution

    Weathercam FTP image resolution

    So moving the time stamp over didnt work. I am fairly certain this is a resolution issue. It is the same thing that happens in UI3 when you enlarge an image to fullscreen. For a sec the image is low res and the time stamp is large... then the high res image kicks in and the time stamp gets...

    Weathercam FTP image resolution

    The time stamp is camera overlay, not BI. I will try dragging it over to see what happens. That's a good idea.

    Weathercam FTP image resolution

    Not sure exactly where to post this, because I'm not sure where the problem lies. I have a 4K color cam as a weather cam that is pushing images to Ambient Weather by FTP. Ambient creates an mpg from the images which is kind of cool. There is a problem with the FTP images where the image...
