    Dahua NVR -- where to set pre-recording seconds for IVS rule

    I'm thinking we're talking past each other a bit, so saying differently what I thought I tried to say :) : First I'm talking only about IVS events, and I've set BI's record/pre-trigger-playback-time to 5 seconds. When I click the event in smartPSS, playback starts at the trigger time. When I...

    Dahua NVR -- where to set pre-recording seconds for IVS rule

    Too many details I can't comprehend this early in the morning! From a strictly user standpoint: With the NVR, when I click on an event, the playback starts at the event time. With BI, the playback starts a few seconds before the event time, and it sure looks like it's the mainstream being...

    Dahua NVR -- where to set pre-recording seconds for IVS rule

    Isn't the main stream also being recorded 24x7 with BI?

    Dahua NVR -- where to set pre-recording seconds for IVS rule

    I'm not able to answer because I record full time. I'm such a BI non-expert that I don't even know if BI lets you not record full time. With the NVR I'm a bit mixed up. I thought if you're not recording full time, the pre-record buffer DOES work. Dahua made an early decision to use the Linux...

    Dahua NVR -- where to set pre-recording seconds for IVS rule

    A not very helpful response I realize, this is one thing that works correctly in BI. I'm not trying to sell BI because there are some things that work better with the NVR. When you pick one, you're blessed with it's particular good features, and stuck with its particular shortcomings.

    Pandemic threat? Anyone else concerned?

    Today's version is 5 nurses, no cancer. I'm more and more convinced that 90+% of what we read in the "news" media and social media is plain old excrement. 5 nurses who work on the same floor at Massachusetts hospital have brain tumors

    Anyone created a custom model to identify coyotes?

    I have foxes and coyotes coming through on a fairly regular basis. At least half of the time, neither my wife or I can decide which one we're looking at. I'd be really, really impressed if a machine could differentiate between fox, coyote, wolf, and some dog breeds with good accuracy.

    Funny / Satire

    Between when my cancer was discovered and the gene test results came back it was assumed I'd be going on chemo and I came within a week of having the port installed. It frankly scared me, mainly because of the part where a tube is inserted into the jugular. I was extremely relieved to find out...

    Pandemic threat? Anyone else concerned?

    This claim has been going around on social media for a few days. I'm not meaning to make light of it, but it looks like it could be another one of those phony and/or exaggerated stories. Remember how the phony story about hospitals overloaded with ivermectin overdoses came and went? Another...

    Money & Economics

    I'm thinking that sales and use taxes are a non-issue when discussing tariffs because they apply to both USA and imported items.

    US Elections (& Politics) :)

    I think dual citizens should not be allowed in federal elected positions. They by definition have a split loyalty, and if they want to be a leader of the USA, they should give up the other citizenships. If they're not willing to, they are copromised, not fully loyal to the country they claim...

    Using ethernet splitter for two cameras

    Interesting! I have assumed that each output could drive 15 watts. In common carelessness, another picture on the same page says 10w + 8w. I thought Andy's spec for what I assume is the identical device would add clarity, but it doesn't.

    US Elections (& Politics) :)

    He may be right that America is headed toward a dictatorship, but is he too dumb to realize Canada is further along? Oh, Yale University professor. That explains it. I imagine he took the job for more money and/or he's more comfortable with Canada's already established dictatorship, and saw...

    We have an almost identical table that serves as the snow gauge. When it gets up to about a foot I stand up a yardstick in it. Right now the depth for us is 0".

    Need help starting AI

    In UI3, the clip thumbnail will say "RuleEngine/LineCrossing" if a camera tripwire caused the event. You're hitting on one of the big disadvantages of using BI over an NVR, in that the NVR real-time display and playback shows the trip lines, and indicates when they're triggered. Many years...
