    Test Run Video Through Motion Detector

    Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong? I get a clip generated by sun/shadows activating the motion detector on a cam. I have the rectangles turned on and so I see the location in the image where the motion is taking place. I replay the clip, and select "Test Run Video Through Motion...

    IPC-HFW5231E-Z vs Z12 - Iris Adjustment Option

    Need Advice for Increasing Megapixels & Changing Lens

    I have a Foscam FI9805 1.3MP pointed at the Cul De Sac in the front of our house. I like the FOV and it works pretty well with Blue Iris catching cars coming into the area and people walking around. We have had some break-ins in the area and I would like the camera to be able to take a clear...
