It's actually extremely dark, I'll try to grab a clip tomorrow

Right, but if my night gain is set to 60-80 and this range causes flickering with the same shutter speed, why would I expect things to get better when it gets.. darker?

My bigger concern on this is that I can see the behavior if I flip over to night mode as well. I assume this means using the high gain may be causing my plate clarity issues. Anyone have a recommended firmware revision I should use?

Don't know if this is going too far off topic for this thread but i'm seeing some serious oscillation/flickering right around sunset. Definitely related to high gain greater than 50. Anyone else seeing this?

I need it tilted down say 10 degrees and to the left 30 degrees. The bracket on the light I have only supports up/down or left/right. Assuming I mount the bracket horizontal or vertical. In reality the height of the board where it is attached limits any diagonal mounting.

Final thought of today, I have an ID10T error, if you know what that is you get bonus points. Anyways, I turned my shutter speed up to 1/100 last night, zoomed out, and played with my camera IR and off-axis IR. My off-axis is aimed too low. It's hitting the middle of my lawn and maybe just...

Thank you for this.. I understand the photography side as well and this explains some of the odd behavior I've seen..

1 - I'll open a bit 2 - Yep on that already 3 - Others have pushed me away from that, people should be going 20 mph on my road especially since this spot is about 200 feet from the cul-de-sac end requiring a u-turn, but you people definitely hit it at 30+ every now and then. 4 - Yea, trying to...

Just had another car pass. Plate isn't reflecting enough light back. Could my off axis light be the issue? Should the light come from nearer the camera? Like I said before my light is on the corner of my house nearest the street, but this was too steep an angle for LPR so the camera itself is in...

@wittaj Getting there, this was picked up with 83% confidence and was accurate on plate recognizer. That's a rear shot. You can see it's still a bit blurry and not super bright. This was with the following:

@Bitslizer its ~150-160 ft. The other issue is I've got the BI18 significantly off axis rather than near my camera. ~40 feet away.

It's the one cam I run at 30 fps. I could just keep the footage more disposable unless there's an alert, but I'd prefer to have the LPR just be a series of 10 second clips of motion rather than hours of nothing. I live at the end of a dead end, not extremely busy

Ok perfect

Ok definitely seeing some serious progress. Knocked the sharpness and gamma down. Hard to get a good read on "good" because I'm hand holding a plate, but it's looking better for sure. Need some live action to test this thing. On an unrelated note. This is the only camera I don't have doing...

Awesome, yea this camera build date December 2020

Those are incredible, I'm definitely at a longer range for sure. I'm not seeing the IR making a major difference unless I boost exposure/gain

Just looked at that I was slightly lower than 8192 but CBR and 30 FPS with 30 Iframe interval. just bumped to 8192

What about gain? How high can I push that?

@wittaj thanks, that was a slightly cropped image. Here's a fullsize. I'm going to give it a try at 1/1000, 60 iris, and 40 sharpness now..

I finally caved and bought the BI18 and installed it yesterday. I tweaked my settings a bit and I can tell the light has made a huge difference, but not sure what to adjust to fix the noise. I confirmed hand carrying and jogging by I get the same noise, no way I'll catch a 20+ mph car if my slow...

Nice!! My wife loves our thumbnail/video clip over telegram. Next step casting the live feed right before the clip gets sent to telegram

I need to look back at the api but I think you need to have the bot send messages to a specific group Id. If you have the ID set as yourself or the bot that won't work.

I've got a group setup with the bot I created. My wife and I are in the group and get the messages

Ok thanks. In my case I believe it is a separate file. I have one camera recording 24/7 a clone of this recording only on motion trigger to a different file. The telegram alerts are a first pass, something happened that was qualified by deep stacks. Then we'd review our continuous recording if...

I record 24/7; however, I have a cloned camera setup to push a video clip of alerts. This records when alerted. Alerts set when camera triggered and also re-triggers Make is 0.1 (I've got Deepstacks filtering out garbage motion) Pre-trigger is 6.0 Break - End trigger within 4.0; Maximum...

I saw the new di20 from tendelux limited reviews...

What was the final solution here @Bitslizer I don't want to pay for the $300+ axton either

Great thanks, might be good enough :)

Does anyone know the minimum focus distance for these cameras? I'm looking to repurpose for a different project and curious if objects at say 4-5" are in focus.

I did you and up checking the box to resize the jpgs that are exported and then realized the drop down is also a text field that can be edited to suit your aspect ratio and chosen size. I think this fixed the issue as telegram API says the thumb can't exceed a certain size. Beyond that alert...
