    Dome with IR that doesn't have glare issues?

    Came across this one from Axis Youtube channel. It's said to not to buy Domes because of IR issues at night, this looks to be a promising change. Seems like a similar IR arrangement to some dome PTZ cameras. I'm looking forward to when Dahua/Hikvision have some reasonably priced domes with...

I can see how to do this manually with the button on the Blue Iris display screen. Is there a way to do this automatically based on light levels or scheduled...

    How to disable IR on Hikvision DS-2CD2042WD-I ?

    I just bought one of these cameras and am having difficulty getting any usable image out of night mode with IR.
