Hi - I need to export a video to mp4 for further analysis. Are there any recommended settings to get the absolute best detail of every frame? It's a short clip (~3 seconds) and I basically want the full resolution images of each frame with absolutely no loss in fidelity from what was recorded...

Is there any compelling reason to switch off of deepstack today? I tried CPAI and had a handful of minor issues and couldn't discern how it was any better so I reverted to DS. I'm sure eventually I'll have to switch, but is there any compelling reason to feature/performance wise today?

I use UI3 on mobile and I bookmark it to an icon on my home screen. Works great. One feature nest has is that I can do the same and deeplink to a specific camera. This way I can go straight to a given camera quickly from my home screen. Is there a URL scheme to deep link to a specific camera...

Is there a way to only make the UI3 noise/zoom for people without taking vehicles out of the AI settings? In other words, I want to keep vehicles in my timeline, but I only want UI to get my attention for people. I know this is possible with pushover and other alerts, but I'm specifically asking...

Has anyone else experienced this?

I was tuning a camera this evening and I noticed that the feed directly on the camera looked much brighter (better) than the feed from UI3 or BI console. I searched around and it seems similar to some of the issues people have been talking about in regards to full/limited range, but I haven't...

IR might. I'll play with a few versions of the above. And it is a challenging light situation. It occurs to me now that maybe I should just pair these cams with visible motion lighting to grab a clean image. It's trivial to hang lights off this building as it's a garage and being in an alley no...

Here's the walk from @wittaj 's numbers. Unfortunately, a blob. 1/120 didn't make much of a difference. I'm always CBR 8192

Getting there. I feel like I had settings near this a few nights ago and it was just a black blob of a human. I'll go do a quick walk and post it.

I think you make a good point about zooming in more. It creates a deadspot between the two cameras, but perhaps thats better practically. I'm still trying to shake my "bright 180 degrees!" newb tendencies :). I'm getting to the point where I might start literally putting overview and zoom...

Sorry I deleted my last image because I noticed the settings didn't save. Sorry for confusion. Here's the actual image from your suggestion. Dropping gain hurt the hardest. Added the zoomed out shot for reference again too.

So I've had a few nights running some of these new settings and I wanted to share an alert I had a bit ago. This alley has some decent street lighting and my neighbors have some motion lighting that hits anyone who walks by (you'll see it turn on at very end of clip). I have two cameras covering...

Thanks all for the tips. I got around to doing a motion test and it was garbage. Went back to the drawing board based on these tips and now I've got WDR off and shutter speeds in the 8-16ms range across all my cameras now by paying more attention to gain, bright/contrast. My images are obviously...

Thanks for the tips. I got a decent static image with a 25ms shutter, 50 gain, and 50 WDR. I'm worried that I jacked WDR too high for motion, but I'll run it for a few nights to see if it's acceptable before I get out there to hang better lights. One mitigating factor is that in order to show up...

What are the downsides to backlight? I ask because that made a massive improvement to static image, but I know that might be at the expensive of actually identifying moving objects,

I just installed this 5442 (thanks Andy!) this afternoon. I was hoping I would get more light from the two porch lights in the backyard in order to identify people better in the yard and the garage at the back of the yard. I was hoping to even be able to run it in color like many of my other...

Hi, looking for some tips on a plan I'm working on to cover an alley. I have a garage in an alley and my goals are to both cover the immediate area near my garage and also get good plate/face Identification of the traffic in the area. I see these as different goals because the foreground near my...
