    Review-Dahua DB-11 Video Door Bell

    Was expecting Andy to ship mine after the 20th, but I was surprised to get an email Monday saying it had shipped from Hong Kong, and that the expected delivery date would be today. It arrived this afternoon (amazing...2 days from HK!!) and my install went rather smoothly. Had issues with...

    An alarm that wakes me up at midnight if there's an intruder and perform some action

    Jose, I’m only a few weeks into HomeSeer (they’ve got a 1/2 off sale going on now) but my integration with BI at the moment is limited to using motion as an alert input to HomeSeer to trigger an action. You can download a trial for free and play with it for a month.

    An alarm that wakes me up at midnight if there's an intruder and perform some action

    I’m using HomeSeer to integrate Blue Iris, DSC alarm system, Philips Hue, Z-Wave switches, Open Sprinkler, and MyQ garage door openers. There’s a learning curve, but you can do a lot such as, if motion detected on Blue Iris between certain hours, turn on certain lights inside, chirp a siren, etc.

    Review-Dahua DB-11 Video Door Bell

    Here’s a question I haven’t seen asked: If all I want is a doorbell cam that can integrate with BI for both audio and video and I don’t care about real time listening or installing another app on my phone (other than for setup) then would this be a good choice? It’s beginning to sound like the...

    If we get a break tomorrow from the crazy winds we’re getting now, I’ll take it down and snap some pics.

    Cabinet Installed for large home install, Plus prewire pics

    When we built our house two years ago, I had the builder run 4 smurf tubes from the basement into the attic above the garage and then into the attic above the second floor. Cost $200. With an unfinished basement, I can pretty much run what I want where I want, although what I’m looking to do...

    Add a fourth difference, the cam I just received can pan/tilt at the same time (diagonal control) whereas the first cam doesn't. Firmware difference perhaps?

    Review-Dahua DH-SD22204T-GN 2mp 4X Mini PTZ

    Last week I purchase one of these through Amazon. Bench tested and looks very nice, although when I took the dome off the black plastic cover over the ball wasn't clipped in completely. A little pressure and it went in place just fine. Got it installed Tuesday and it's working well, so much...

    First Zoom cam with zoom problems in BI

    Interesting. Would’ve thought zoom for a zoom only camera was available on the fly like ptz for a ptz camera. Thanks for the info. I was really stumped.

    First Zoom cam with zoom problems in BI

    I used BI for several years with standard 3mp Dahua cameras, both bullet and dome, without issue. Decided to upgrade at our new house, and now have a IPC-HFW5231E-Z12 overlooking the driveway. My problem is in Blue Iris, when I zoom in, it zooms *all* the way in. I can't stop it partway...

    Greetings from flyover state

    I've been a lurker for a While. Started off about three years ago with 2 Dahua cams and running BI on Windows 7 within a Freenas virtualbox jail at our old house. Had a new house built and am in the process of building a dedicated BI box and updating cameras to the latest starlight models via Andy.
