    Is BlueIris site down

    It's connecting now when looking for updates but it lost my renewal info apparently and immediately put me into evaluation mode. I looked up my renewal key, put that in, and it worked but it's strange because it's now showing my activation date as today instead of last April when I actually...

    IPC-Color4K-T and IPC-Color4K-T180 230227 Firmware

    All true. I was just throwing out suggestions if there was a need for higher quality. I don't know what type of compression a phone uses for their videos. H.264 or H.265? Are they worried about optimizing it for network bandwidth like a surveillance camera would? I don't know. But I hear what...

    IPC-Color4K-T and IPC-Color4K-T180 230227 Firmware

    I have a hunch that if anyone had oodles of storage available and wanted the best footage available, with the least amount of compression artifacts, they're probably using some type of bespoke setup, maybe even analog instead of IP cameras and doing the A/D conversion on something besides the...

    Worlds First Review - Dahua DH-IPC-PFW5849-A180-E2 - Dual Lens 180 Degree Full Color 4K (8MP Stitched) Camera

    Ditto, this camera and all my others stream fine to Android using the web UI (which is good, since that's how I aim the camera during install). I don't know if it matters but on my Android (v9) I'm using Chrome, not the native browser.

    IPC-Color4K-T and IPC-Color4K-T180 230227 Firmware

    Fortunately I haven't had any issues like this. I've got that same 2023-02-27 firmware. I'm just using the adaptive scene. On all my other cameras I have day/night settings and use a script to switch them at sunrise/sunset (my own home-rolled, but basically the same as the sunrise/sunset script...

    Worlds First Review - Dahua DH-IPC-PFW5849-A180-E2 - Dual Lens 180 Degree Full Color 4K (8MP Stitched) Camera

    Yeah, I'm walking the OID tree again to see what else. I only skimmed it before. I added CPU monitoring to my PRTG setup and missed the fact that on the end of that OID, there's an index value of ".0". It's only got the one CPU but the indexes mean it could support stats for multiple CPUs... I...

    Worlds First Review - Dahua DH-IPC-PFW5849-A180-E2 - Dual Lens 180 Degree Full Color 4K (8MP Stitched) Camera

    Replying to myself... I found this: DAHUA-SNMP-MIB: View SNMP OID List / Download MIB It lists the Dahua enterprise there and has a button to download the MIB. I pulled that MIB into my browser and walked it. I'm trying to think if there's anything terribly interesting in there... This one...

    Worlds First Review - Dahua DH-IPC-PFW5849-A180-E2 - Dual Lens 180 Degree Full Color 4K (8MP Stitched) Camera

    I used an SNMP walker and it has the normal OIDs for network devices, so it has that at least. Since I was toying with it yesterday I added a monitor for the network traffic just to see. I haven't done that on any of my other cameras so it's not a good comparison, and also, I have this cam setup...

    Worlds First Review - Dahua DH-IPC-PFW5849-A180-E2 - Dual Lens 180 Degree Full Color 4K (8MP Stitched) Camera

    The answer is yes, it does support the standard SNMP "uptime" OID. I think it's this: ".1.3.6.1.2.1.1.3" aka ".iso.org.dod.internet.mgmt.mib-2.system.sysUpTime" and the value is in ticks of hundredths of a second. I just rebooted the cam and confirmed it's currently showing 10 minutes of uptime...

    Worlds First Review - Dahua DH-IPC-PFW5849-A180-E2 - Dual Lens 180 Degree Full Color 4K (8MP Stitched) Camera

    I'd suggest checking the logs on the camera, but I just looked at mine and although I know for sure I was having PoE issues initially, I don't see any log messages around that time (just a ton of messages about setting time via NTP - I should really see if I can limit that to once or twice a...

    Worlds First Review - Dahua DH-IPC-PFW5849-A180-E2 - Dual Lens 180 Degree Full Color 4K (8MP Stitched) Camera

    I wanted to share my own experience with the camera, and your post was a good intro to that. I got mine last week and managed to set it up over the weekend. The way it's wired up, I have about 75-100' of pretty decent Cat6, outdoor rated, going to a weatherproof box that holds a little power...

    Switch Dahua Day/Night Profile via IPC HTTP API

    FYI, now that I finally got around to looking at a newer version of the API (version 2.89) I noticed a couple of things: 1) "VideoInMode" is not listed in the document... at all. Weird. It still works on my 2.x firmware Dahua cameras, but the API doesn't mention it 2) "VideoInOptions" has a...

    latest Version of DAHUA HTTP API FOR IPC Documentation ??

    Thanks for at least that 2.89 API that was posted. I realized the latest Dahua API document I had was 1.67 from 2015. It worked for my needs (changing profiles, rebooting) but if I did need to pull or set any of the newer things, this will come in handy. I might be interested in the 3.0 API but...

    Worlds First Review - Dahua DH-IPC-PFW5849-A180-E2 - Dual Lens 180 Degree Full Color 4K (8MP Stitched) Camera

    I've been following this thread with interest. I'm on the verge of ordering one of the Dahua models, but the funky aspect ratio might bother me. I feel like the firmware could just stretch it out horizontally to get rid of the anamorphic squishing that's happening. If I did get one, I was...

    Reolink 410

    I realize I'm replying to a SUPER old post, but I had a need to do this very thing. I have an old Reolink 423 that flakes out every time Blue Iris restarts the service. The camera itself is fine, but if Blue Iris restarts, that camera will not show anything. If I reboot the camera, boom, all is...

    5.5.6.17 May 1 2022 - PTZ Control Feauture

    Ditto for me... I didn't even see that was a new feature. I have the same model as you, SD49225T-HN. It's working great - Zooms in from 1.0 to 25x in these increments, generally: 1.0, 1.7, 2.8, 4.7, 7.9, 13.4, 22.7, 25 If starting out at a different zoom level it generally increments in the...

    Amcrest IP4M-1026EW

    Yes, it worked on my IP4M-1026EW as well. It's actually wired, but I do still see the wifi options in the settings as expected.

    Amcrest IP4M-1026EW

    I was just going through my older Amcrest cameras and trying to figure out the firmware and Chrome status... In some cases I was able to find and flash the compatible Dahua firmware with success. But I have a couple of IP4M-1026E cameras I hit a dead end, because those don't have a Dahua...

    CPU high, losing cams on 5.2.5.4

    I've noticed before that a fresh reinstall helps. Which made me look at some registry entries used by the software to see what was different. In some cases (and this was a few years ago so I don't remember the details) there must have been some version in-between that set some configuration...

    CPU high, losing cams on 5.2.5.4

    I just saw that 5.2.5.6 is available. It seems Ken has been busy the past few days, squashing bugs. I don't know if there's any more info on what bugs are being addressed in each build, beyond the generic "bug fixes" mention. For example, I noticed that in 5.2.5.4, which I'm running right...

    CPU high, losing cams on 5.2.5.4

    For what it's worth, I've tinkered with updating to the latest versions, knowing full well I may need to roll back if problems arise. In my case, I also use the "run as service" and I noticed that it configures the service recovery options to always restart the service if it crashes. So when...

    Is there an easy way to dump all the Blue Iris camera(s) settings to a file for easy review?

    You could always do a series of command line queries for each camera and grab the "interval" value if all you want to see is the bitrate. Example: reg query "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Perspective Software\Blue Iris\Cameras\Backyard" /v interval Just replace that "Backyard" in my example with...

    Is there an easy way to dump all the Blue Iris camera(s) settings to a file for easy review?

    You can run regedit and export the reg entry for each camera to a separate file and then compare those. I've done that before when troubleshooting why a camera didn't work, but if I created a new one to the same cam, it would work. Comparing the reg entries let me see that somehow the old...

    5.0.2 - August 12, 2019 - ALPR support using Plate Recognizer

    I'm also just now trying out the Plate Recognizer feature. I have the same problem where the motion that triggers the recording has the car coming into the frame but the plate isn't visible yet. Those are the images being sent via the API, which of course result in no plate being recognized. If...

    Cameras Go Offline Randomly, Changing On Each Restart

    After rolling back the Intel and Nvidia drivers to the version I had previously, I still experienced the "no signal" issue at various points throughout the day. I remembered one other change I made before this all happened, and that was related to my timelapse cameras. I have 4 and they're...

    Cameras Go Offline Randomly, Changing On Each Restart

    Lesson learned there. I've already begun taking a "wait and see" approach when it comes to updating Blue Iris itself, generally giving it a few weeks and checking here for any feedback. I should've done the same for the GPU drivers. I added the Quadro P2000 because the system was struggling...

    Cameras Go Offline Randomly, Changing On Each Restart

    I'm having somewhat similar issues with my Blue Iris 5.x install (5.0.1.0 to be exact). It runs as a service but I do sometimes connect via RDP and run the app as well to monitor the feeds. I don't normally use the web interface. From time to time, maybe after 24-30 hours of uptime, about half...

    Video removed - FedEx drives over neighbor's dog, no brakes, doesn't stop

    Haven't seen the video, don't want to. But in defense of the driver, sounds like a couple dogs running around as she's driving off, and although I haven't seen the video, maybe there was a blind spot where the dog in front kept playing a dangerous game of chicken with something much larger than...

    Switch Dahua Day/Night Profile via IPC HTTP API

    In case this helps anyone, I ended up rolling my own day/night script in Windows that looks up the sunrise/sunset times using the API available at "api.sunrise-sunset.org" and creating/updating a pair of scheduled tasks at the appropriate time of day. The commands I use to switch profiles vary...

    Dahua day/night switch utility - DahuaSunriseSunset

    By the way, at least if you're just changing day/night (not sure about focus/zoom), the only permissions the user apparently needs is "AV Parameter". So if you want to create a user just for this service (and I recommend it), that's the only one it needs to have.
