I got an echo show 5 and UI3 works on it. Any idea how to keep UI3 displayed rather than time out to home screen? (not the UI3 timeout)- rdxny

New to CCTV - Can you give me an honest opinion on my plan please ?
the 5442 s3 series are great cameras. The first one, either that or the turret version. is great. Note that the second one you linked to, the180 degree color 4k, does not have IR so you need a bunch of natural light unless you wish to have white lights on all night. If you do want a 180...- rdxny

Review- EmpireTech IPC-T54IR-ZE-S3 4mp Varifocal Turret
My pulsing mostly disappeared with: H.264H, General, 15 FPS, CBR, 10,249 Bit Rate, I frame of 15 and highest resolution for the main stream, and same for sub with bit rate of 1024 with "d1" resolution. -

Review- EmpireTech IPC-T54IR-ZE-S3 4mp Varifocal Turret
I tried the same settings, except I raised the Substream to 1024, all else the same. Both the Main and Substream have been steady all day, with clouds/sun, and cloudy. We shall see... I'm optimistic. -

Review- EmpireTech IPC-T54IR-ZE-S3 4mp Varifocal Turret
Raising the bit rate, etc does help lower (if not eliminate) the pulsing in the Main Stream, but most of the pulsing I see is in the Substream that is displayed in the BI layouts. And I don't see how one could effectively raise the bit rate enough in Substream to get rid of the pulsing without... -

Dahua AI
With the addition of "animals" to the latest firmware in the 5442 s3 series, I quit CodeProject for now and am relying on the cam's IVS and it has performed very well. In the camera's web setup, just enable IVS and draw your tripwires and intrusion areas. In BI's Video Tab, under Configure, be... -

Review- EmpireTech IPC-T54IR-ZE-S3 4mp Varifocal Turret
I see the same "Breathing", or "Pulsing", on some of my 5442 (s3) cams. Never at night, and it seems to be worse on scenes that have large flat areas like the driveway surface, or lawn. So like water, lots of tiny changes of a relatively large, flat area. And changing bit rate definitely... -

Which Echo Show are you using to see Blue Iris? Will they all handle it or do you need the one with Fire TV in it? Might be nice to have a small echo available to see BI output.- rdxny

IPC-T54IR-AS vs 5442-AS Housing/Mounting Differences
The varifocal is also an s3. (T54IR-ZE-S3) I have several of both that and the fixed lens versions. I find the new mount easier to mount, as you can attach the plate first (without camera dangling and cables dangling), then just snap it in and secure the screw to tighten it. (assuming you... -

IVS trouble, sideways Color4K-T
I have the same experience using a 4kt in corridor mode... BI motion with cpai works fine, but I was trying to move to all IVS in camera, and IVS wouldn't trigger with a person in corridor mode. -

Good deal Annke 180 degree dual 1/1.8 for $220?
I have both the ncd800 and the fcd600. I had the ncd800 for a few years, it works fine, but has no IR, so the night image is only fair unless you have a lot of natural light. I didn't like the added white light on all night. So i just bought the fcd600 (for $80 at Walmart) and like it a LOT...- rdxny

Review- EmpireTech IPC-T54IR-ZE-S3 4mp Varifocal Turret
I can't answer the questions about the file sizes, but the new beta with "Smart AI" only has the same choices of "general" and "AI Codec" as you saw in the non "Smart IR" beta. -

Review- EmpireTech IPC-T54IR-ZE-S3 4mp Varifocal Turret
In limited testing with a few s3 5442 cams running the "animal beta" , I'm getting similar triggering using only IVS (setting both tripwires and intrusion... figuring more is better) from BI Motion combined with CPAI (IPCam-combined, 2.6.5 CPAI). Both seem to trigger very well on Cars, People... -

Review- EmpireTech IPC-T54IR-ZE-S3 4mp Varifocal Turret
good question, since I'm not running cpai on these cams. I did not have any false triggers, but it's only one night. Others who run only IVS can chime in. Whether adding animals also adds to the likelihood of spiders, etc, we shall see. -

Review- EmpireTech IPC-T54IR-ZE-S3 4mp Varifocal Turret
I loaded the new firmware on four s3 version 5442 cams and no issues updating. I turned off motion and CPAI in BI, and just let the camera's IVS rules work. At first, it triggered too easily on some squirrels, so I had to set the minimum size option to something larger than a squirrel. That... -

Review- EmpireTech IPC-T54IR-ZE-S3 4mp Varifocal Turret
the tool is cranky... you have to be sure the password reflects the current one on the camera, so if it is still on the default 192.168.1.108, its admin/admin. Then if you initialize (on the same network as the camera is set to), and you change the password, you have to be sure to change to... -

Dahua Firmware upgrade process

After Updating CodeProject AI, BI's Motion Detection and Email Alert Not Working
No, only if you wish to use them. I use "IPcam-combined" because it looks for deer, who like to eat my landscaping. But if you have it checked, and a custom model doesn't show, that's where you might have issues with alerts. I think if unchecked then your problem lies elsewhere. -

After Updating CodeProject AI, BI's Motion Detection and Email Alert Not Working
In the main BI settings, under AI, do you have "use custom models" checked? If so, are they any listed in the box? If not, restart the Blue Iris service (windows services), assuming you have BI set to run as a service. I find anytime I update either BI or CPAI, I need to restart the BI service...
