I am looking to install additional IR but want to make the wiring as hidden as possible. How have you don it? My leading thought is to run it under the eve and paint the wire to make it blend as much as possible. How have you done it? do you run it all back to a central location? you can see...

Any thoughts before I pull the trigger on this NVR - http://neotech.ge/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/DS-7100NI-SN-P_.pdf

wow, that's crazy. I did buy mostly turrets because of your recommendations, I guess they should have all been turrets. I think I will figure out an IR story, I just don't want that one time when I really need the footage to be such bad quality that I can't see anything.

good idea. maybe i'll never put the intercom in...

so you are saying the first camera has much better IR? I would think the IR quality between the cameras is similar?

both cameras are default settings, any suggestions on how to fix the second camera? first camera - CMIP1142W-28 second camera - CMIP3142w-28 Grrrrrr. Happy to try stuff...

Yeah bars in the recommendations I will go with one of my extra cameras and skip audio for now until I figure out what intercom system to build. I will research intercom systems in the meantime. The area he want to monitor is about 50' x 50' so one of my extra 2.8mm will do the job. The...

sorry I have mislead you guys. I didn't need feedback on the camera specifically, I mentioned recommendation on the camera only because I don't know of a camera that does two-way audio so I'd want recommendations on that. Since you are recommending audio separate from the camera didn't need...

Let's assume I can build whatever is necessary to get the right cables out there. I am really looking for feedback on the NVR, camera and intercom system you mentioned above.

Like I mentioned above there will be 1 camera but would like to handle growth up to 4 cameras. No gate. Just obstructed view. Any intercom suggestions?

He said he is willing to spend up to $500 but I am thinking it will be much cheaper than that. BTW - if you have suggestions for a monitor that would be awesome. he wants something relatively small, I am guessing 8". Even an ipad mini that can just always display the camera.

Hi all, My dad just asked me to setup a camera for him. He will need something that is dead simple so I wouldn't want to use blue iris. Plug and play so probably an NVR. He wants one camera now but I want to have growth for up to 4 cameras. he would like two way audio also (I haven't messed...

I am currently using win10 with BI hardware acceleration on a i7-6700k and I would like to switch to Windows server 2012 and beyond. Does anyone know if the hardware acceleration is supported on Windows server? (I assume yes but before I wipe my machine i'd like to confirm)

I was thinking the same thing. do you have recommendations for LED and IR?

I have been tweaking my settings to get the best night time visibility but I seem to be missing the mark as I keep having random issues once I get something that looks good at night. Would folks mind sharing their settings, what works for them? What settings seem to have the biggest influence...

Thanks everyone for your help! Resetting the camera back to original settings seems to have fixed it. Weird that the feed showed correctly directly from the camera, I figured that would have made a blue iris issue since that's the only place that it showed up but I guess not. now I need to...

that's what I meant about the camera feed doesn't show it. it's coming from BI, the camera feed doesn't have the issue.

why is this happening? I just started happening recently as I mucked with the settings. I am sure it's something I have done as the camera feed doesn't show it but I am not sure what setting is doing it?

do let us know!

damn, those look good!. Hmm, might have to get one and try it!

thanks Fenderman! I'll take a look at them!

Oh snap, I had no idea. when I asked Frankie (LTS) he said he didn't have it which I thought mention hivision didn't. I'll look at hikvision then. I'll also lok at dahua.

I am thinking about getting a 8mm or 12mm camera. Anyone have a recommendation? I have been getting hikvision but they seem to only have up to 4mm lens.

Bricked a camera this weekend and he was up until 1AM last night his time sending me instructions on how to get it unbricked. Thanks Frankie - glad I don't need to send the camera in now!

I have messed up a setting in blue iris where jpg is shown in the web view instead of bvr. Any suggestions on how to get bvr back? sorry for such a dumb question but I have spent several hours trying to remember where I set it last time.

I am quickly losing my interest in using the IR blasters on the Hivision cameras. does anyone use stand-alone IR blasters? if so what do you get? where do you typically place them? I guess you have to run power to them (that seems like a hassle)? I am thinking about just getting motion...

SOLVED: Video quality issues - can't record at >15fps @ 720p I have 2x 3MP hikvision cameras and can't seem to get them to record at 30fps @ 1080p in BI or even live view on he camera itself. Before I go through the hassle of isolating the network - Has anyone been able to record @ 30fps @...
