1/1.2" 8MP Varifocal
Oh, yeah, G6 Pro is absolutely fanatastic at full day light conditions. But when light level drops lower than some threshold (cloudy winter day for example) its performace starts to fall behind latest Dahua cameras. At least that's how it worked for me last winter :)... -

1/1.2" 8MP Varifocal
Oh, wow, G6 Pro defintely shows some improvements. Although for real comparison it would be better to put both of them as close as possible to each other. Also, self-adaptive mode is not the best way to configure T54IR, especially at night time. -

Dahua WizColor 5x59-PRO and SmartLight 5x59-IL new series
You forgot: no POE, solar power only! -

It looks like better ONVIF support is coming to UniFi Protect
Ideally, it would be nice to have full support for ONVIF Profile M, including processing of bounding box of detected objects from stream metadata. -

well, I said "trying" :) It would be naive to expect that latest Protect version can fix the camera problems :( -

OTOH, this is also their weakness, regular people are not going to spend time tweaking those controls. To me, it looks like both, Dahua and Ubuquiti are trying to use "AI" to automate those tweaks and both are failing doing this, so far... I hope someday, someone going to figure it out... but... -

It's about using AI for coding, in many cases results are similar to using AI to improve camera image quaility :p -

PSA: Ubiquiti Network compromised again | Critical UniFi OS bug lets hackers gain root without authentication
Not exactly , it's mainly about Direct Remote Connection (what is basically port forwarding to console WebUI :facepalm:), but disabling Remote Access completely is not a bad idea. Only VPN, preferably Wireguard or some Wireguard based Unifi tools such as teleport or site magic. -

The exploits only work if you allow access to your console from outside world. NEVER DO THAT! -

But what are we going to buy when Andy runs out of T54IR's ??? -

1/1.2" 8MP Varifocal
The problem is: "normal" people are buying this crap because all they care is number of megapixels and good looking static images, preferably in color. They don't think about ID of moving objects... or, rather they don't want to think about ID and stuff like that(NR, gain, shutter speed)... -
M
1/1.2" 8MP Varifocal
Well, the ghosting you are seeing is the direct result of heavy 3D NR... and they have to use it to improve quality of static image. It's not just about amount of light, but also about amount of noise. It looks like the sensor is pretty noisy in low light/IR conditions, so they have to... -

With a faster shutter speed, the sensor will receive even less light, resulting in a much darker image. As you can see even in your video, the sensor struggles with moving objects; the static background only looks decent because of the heavy use of 3D NR. From what I understand, the G6 Pro uses... -

Yeah, go ahead and buy Ubiquiti like Arjun suggested. -

The only problem is that their cameras, even top of the line, is just garbage, comparing to Dahua https://ipcamtalk.com/threads/a-healthy-competitor-g6-pro-turret.84296/ -

T54PRO is a new camera, it's not as good as 5442-S3, but still much better than anything else what is not EOL-ed. -
M
1/1.2" 8MP Varifocal
But it's definetly much worse than T54PRO at this moment... and I don't think G6 Pro ever going to work better. Its sensor is even worse than T54PRO at low light conditions. -

1/1.2" 8MP Varifocal
So, you are advising people to buy even worse Ubiquiti garbage for the price 2-3 times higher, just because it's not from Dahua? :) -

Is Blue Iris worth pursuing for my situation, or am I pushing it beyond its practical comfort zone?
Tbh, I would just setup a small test PC having just BI running on it with the same configuration, to check how it works, before making any conclusions... IMHO, the fewer layers and moving parts you have, the better... -

Solar Wifi Camera
Yes, and a big solar panel or two, but minus inverter, just a charge controller ... Sometimes I'm thinking about building something like that myself, but at the end of the day just having network cables with POE is much simpler and better in general.- Molbo

To me, it feels like there is some kind of hidden issue in your system I'm running Blue Iris with 36 cameras, all from Andy, all are using ONVIF events, some are using BI motion detection+AI. Cameras are spread around 20 acres property with Ubiquiti switches hanging on the trees + bunch of POE... -

It looks like better ONVIF support is coming to UniFi Protect
Protect supports line crossing for Unifi cameras. I haven't tried it myself, but apparently latest version of Protect only supports ONVIF events for Motion Detection, and not Line Crossing, etc. It looks like someone from this forum should look into this, the "normal" Unifi users are not good in...
