Zoom Settings
I have a IPC-HFW5241E-Z12E for a license plate reader. I set the zoom under Camera->Conditions->Zoom and Focus. There is no save button so I go back to the Conditions tab and click save. That seems to work as when I refresh the web portal, I still get a sharp image. But then a few days later... -

Object Detection - Which Condition Triggered It?
In "Object detection" I have two different conditions, one is B>C and one C>B. I need to know which one was detected, B>C or C>B. Is there a way I can find out? I checked the JSON interface but didn't find anything. But maybe I just missed it. Or is there some other way to find out which... -

Image Quality Issues
@bigredfish please let me know how I should capture the image. From all I see, neither BI nor the web portal for the cam allows me to look at the image in native resolution. Maybe I am missing something. So what I do is double clicking on the stream in BI which blows it up to full screen. I do... -

Well, it's a jpg so it's compressed. But when I look at the images I sent on this forum, they pretty accurately represent what I see on my screen. -

Image Quality Issues
No markings and frankly I am not sure it's solid wood. The underside has the same wood pattern as the top, which makes me think it could possibly be solid wood but who knows unless you cut into it which I am reluctant to do. We didn't purchase it. I do know the floor is 3/4" solid teak... -

Image Quality Issues
It's starting to look bad. I am planning to sand it down and do a new coat. That white, round patch is a small area I sanded down just to see what it looks like after the lacquer is gone. I probably should have done it on the underside rather than on the table... And since you mentioned teak... -

Image Quality Issues
I did try setting iframe at every 15th frame. At 15 frames per iframe you can see the image changing every 1s whereas with 30 frames you can see the image changing every 2s. So I know it's working. But there is no change in image quality. I can see that the bandwidth reported in BI changed from... -

Image Quality Issues
I changed it to H.264H but it makes no difference. I did improve the over sharpness by going to Setting -> Camera -> Image -> Image and put the sharpness down to 10 (was 50). There is still a white bar around the TV but otherwise it looks a lot better, though also more "blurry". In any case, I... -

Yes, I think it's the IPC-HDBW5442R-ASE. It's 2.8mm. I made the recommended changes but there isn't really any improvement. See the attachments. Note that I temporarily disabled the sub stream just to make sure I don't look at a sub stream. The camera isn't really for security but just to see... -

I got an IPC-D54IR-ASE S3. Attached is a screenshot of about 1/4 size (1/2 length, 1/2 width) from BlueIris displaying the came using the full area of a 4k monitor. I understand the camera is 2688x1520 and we look at a quarter of the size so something like 1300x700. However, I am still a bit... -

Avoid Motion Trigger when Lights Go On/Off
I have set up some alerts when there is motion. I also have some automated lights, i.e. they can go off/on while nobody is in the camera's view. This sudden light change makes the camera think there is motion and it triggers and alert. Is there a way to configure BI so it doesn't trigger an... -

Web Request & Recording, etc.
When there is an alert one can issue a web request to notify other applications of the alert. I would like to do something similar for when recording start, recording end, etc. I can get the status via the JSON interface but that means I have to constantly poll BI for the status. Is there a way... -

JSON - Can't Change Profile
Turns out the value for profile needs to be a number rather than a string. Now it works. {"cmd":"camconfig","session":"15d8489728767d9525700ab22f136e94","camera":"Cam166","profile":4} -

IP banned & Too Many Login Attempts
I am trying out the JSON interface and therefore do a lot of (failed) login attempts. BlueIris initially told me that I had too many login attempts and now I get an IP banned. How can I (temporarily) unblock this while I develop some code? -

On Alert Actions Inserts User Admin
I defined a web request action when there is an alert. It looks like this: [IP]/JSON?request=runevent&id=[ID] Never mind the parameters. It's just an example. The issue I am having is that BI seems to insert a default user name (admin) and probably some password. However, the GET request... -

Automatically Reset Alert
Ok, so it seems the alarm was actually always reset. I am saying this because it records for 10s and then the recording stops. And using @TonyR URL, I can make the recording stop before the 10s. The reason I thought the alarm is not reset is because the orange flash on the right side of the... -

Automatically Reset Alert
I want to use some of my cameras as motion sensor for home automation purposes. I can get them to detect motion and perform an action on the home automation system. However, the alert is not clearing until I manually clear it. I would like it to clear after say 10s so that when there is motion... -

Keeps Crashing Once a Day
Thank you! It looks like reducing the allocated space helps. At least I didn't have any crash since I made the change some 30h ago. It's quite a bit of wasted HDD space, though. So now my BI dedicated "18 TB" (really a 16 TBytes drive) HDD only has about 12.7 TBytes available with 2.93 TBytes...- rfj

My BI v 5.3.2.11 x64 about a couple weeks ago started to crash and average of once a day. There is no particular time or even that I can see that is related to it. I checked the Windows Event Viewer but there is nothing in there related to BI. There were some windows update, i.e. KB5034466...- rfj

Change Normally Open to Normally Closed
I have a new IPC-D54IR-ASE-S3 = HDBW5442R-ASE-S3 and was wondering if it's possible to change the alarm output from NO (Normally Open) to NC (Normally Closed). There is such an option for the alarm input, see attachment. However, I don't see anything for the alarm output. -

Cameras & DSC Security System
So I tried this on my new Dahua camera. When there is NO motion, the resistance on the alarm out is infinite. When the camera detects motion, then the resistance goes down to 2 Ohms. I am actually able to wire this directly into the DSC alarm panel via a 5.6kOhm resistor (as with all other...- rfj

Finding Dahua Dome, PoE, 1/1.8", 4MP, 2.8mm
Thanks! For outside I have turrets and bullets. I wife likes to clean and a camera with no openings like a dome is easier to clean. With turrets dust can get between the camera head and the mounting. And I think the dome looks less intrusive than a turret. But maybe other people feel different... -
