Greetings. I setup an EmpireTech camera in my garage and used the camera AI detection for People, Vehicles and non-motorized vehicles, but I'm getting alerts on a window shadow on the floor when the sun moves out from behind a cloud. I have Get ONVIF Events checked for input, but that's it...

I'm getting frustrated right now. I've been switching between enabling Blue Iris ONIF/Camera Events and in the camera enabling Motion Detection, Scene Changing and Smart Motion Detection and that doesn't seem to trigger alerts when the garage door opens or closes, so then I disable ONIF/Camera...

I'm now in the process of making the cameras useful. Do you setup tripwires or intrusion spaces in the cameras, using the Smart Plan, and configure Triggers in Blue Iris to use the ONVIF/camera events source, or do you use configure Motion Sensor in Blue Iris, or can you have both as sources...

I'm becoming a fan of Dahua products. Much of this stuff is a science project now due to the variety of models. Moving into looking at NVRs now, do you need to homerun each IP camera directly to the NVR, or can you connect the IP cameras to a PoE switch and then one connection from the switch...

I'm planning out what cameras to use on my property. I've got all four sides of the home surveilled using various cameras. I've got a front entrance and driveway entrance that would be legitimate entrances for daytime or nighttime visitors. I've also got a couple of entrances in the back of...

I got my 4th camera as a turret with variable focal length so that I can determine what I might want for a few other places and decide if a fixed focal length would work, or a variable focal length. Is there anything that tells you what focal length the camera is currently set at? For...

Greetings, I have a small legacy dome camera mounted to the underside of the corner soffit of my front porch in need of upgrading. I was planning on a Dahua 3.8mm dome camera to see more of an overview. An active deterrence camera there doesn't make sense to me, as that is where strangers for...

The Northern Neck is a peninsula that rests between the Rappahannock and Potomac Rivers on the Western Shore of the Chesapeake Bay and is the northernmost of three peninsulas that together form Virginia's “tidewater region". That concludes your Geography lesson for today. In any event, we move...
