I have had a Dahua 4A425 for some time now, but have never setup up the auto tracking on it. I'm having a hard time finding any resources that detail the setup I would like. Hoping someone here will have some insight. I would like the camera to be on a constant pan from one side of my property...

Hi guys, was looking for some library (python) to control a Dahua PTZ camera with a joystick. But apparently there aren't any, so i wrote my own. Tell me what you think Code GitHub - wvthoog/Dahua-Joystick-PTZ-Control Blog Dahua Joystick PTZ Control - Wim van 't Hoog Regards, Wim

I have been frustrated with finding the right setting to get my PTZ camera to hold, or "loiter", at a preset position triggered by my trigger cam, but I found it. In the PTZ camera's settings, in the PTZ/Control tab, "Resume cycle/schedule after inactivity (sec)" , is what appears to control...

It's been a while since I've been in the loop, and I'm in the market for some new Dahua cameras for my home. Specifically, I'm looking for recommendations on the best PTZ, fixed, and bullet cameras. I plan to install at least one PTZ camera on the side of my house to keep an eye on the driveway...

Anyone have a Dahua SMD PTZ in Milestone and triggering presents which allow Autotracking? when I create them on the camera they show when imported to Milestone however I've yet to see the the Auto Tracking side of things kick off?

So I'm looking for a really good low light/night PTZ with at least 30X zoom. It appears that DS-2DF6A436X-AEL(T5) may be the ticket with 4MP, 1/1.8 sensor, f1.2 lens, 0.001 Lux rating? It's at the limit of my budget $1500-2000, and the housing has a diameter of 231mm which is the biggest I would...

Hello everyone, I would like to add a few cameras to my surveillance setup, and I am looking for advice. Three cameras to be added. I only look for two brands, which I already own and I am satisfied with: Dahua and Hikvision. All cameras should be PoE, infrastructure is already in place (CAT7...

I've setup a Dahua PTZ to live stream using a client's YouTube account. All worked well EXCEPT ... the livestream is stuck automatically as a 360 degree view! In other words completely useless to me and my client who specifically want to live stream a PTZ with pre-set tours at different times...

Hi, Has anyone got any experience in human tracking PTZ camera. My goal is to have a human tracking PTZ camera hook up to my Blue Iris PC. The camera is blocked accessing the internet. I interested in this model: SD2A500HB-GN-A-PV-S2 - Dahua Technology Just wonder if this camera requires a...

Hi folks! I want to connect an Uniview dual ptz camera (IPC9312LFW) to a dahua xvr (XVR5116HS). When I add the camera on the xvr I only get the stream from one of the two channels, but I can’t get both. In the zahi config the camera is added as onvif and lists only one channel. The camera works...

Just cleaning out my collection of ip cameras. I'm the original owner. This PTZ camera has worked flawlessly since Day 1. No scratches, dents or flaws anywhere as this was well-cared for. Asking $150 via PayPal with FREE shipping to anywhere in Canada and the lower 48 states in the USA. PM...

Can someone verify what the latest firmware is for this camera that supports human and car tracking? Has anyone created a custom firmware? Has anyone tried a firmware from a different Dahua camera and have it work better and not brick it? I like the camera in general but its tracking needs...

Bought this when it first came out from Andy @ EmpireTech for $325 USD. Installed under 2nd floor eave & just took down last week to replace it with a Dahua IPC-Color4K-T180 cam. I would have kept both if I had my way, but had to keep the wife happy. PTZ is in excellent condition (see pic)...

Hi, I have a 2mp Dahua PTZ, that has been brilliant since 2019. However, recently, the past 2 or so months I have noticed a strange constant pixelation / noise at the bottom of the screen. It is there constantly. Whether there is movement in the scene or a still scene, change of light, shadows...

We bought a commercial space that has a lot of ring flood light cams and flood lights all of which detect motion and send a notification. There are also some nice new PTZ cams around the perimeter. Is there anyway to have the PTZ turn toward the zone where the motion was detected from the ring...

How do the PTZ cameras maintain such crisp focus while zooming? They don't use parfocal lens right? So are they continuously updating the focus motor as they zoom?

Hi there, I've got a Lorex N845A6 with a couple wired and wireless cameras connected. Everything is working great but but am trying to figure out how to remotely control a 2K PTZ camera (Lorex model: W462AQC). It's for the Twitch stream for my daughter's goat house and its a small space and...

As the name suggests, TP-Link is stepping up their game in terms of what their cameras are capable of. Their specifications do not compete with Hikvision and Dahua but the ideas are something I could see being mainstream in the future. Comment what you think. TP-Link are trying to become a new...

I have been searching the intets and this forum for some knowledge of how to configure the Intrusion or Tripwire PTZ auto tracking. I have come up with a few settings, however it is not working as expected. IE it will not auto track. I have set up a PTZ Function for Main Position. I have set...

So this huge storm hit last night. -4 degrees and with wind chill -25. I have 2 cameras. Loryta SD49225XA-HNR and SD49425XB-HNR. The 4 meg one started to make a whining noise and would not rotate. I decided to unplug them all. Kind of sounded like the motor was trying to turn the camera but...

I have 8 cameras installed and 4 of them are PTZ cruisers ( the imou ones ). The problem is I am unable to move the cameras UP and DOWN neither from the NVR, SmartPSS, or the DMSS app. Just the up and down dont work they do move left and right without issue. The only way I am able to move the...

Does anyone have a functioning, outdoor, Onvif, ptz, lightbulb camera? There are so many for sale, but I don't want to go through the trial and return process looking for some that work. I understand the quality will not be first rate, but being able to cover a few select areas would we...

I have an outdoor PTZ camera (Dahua SD50225UN-HNI) with 3 different presets. The focus is currently set to manual, as auto-focus has a difficult time deciding what to focus on. Manual focus works okay for 2 presets that are at approximately the same distance, but it is completely out of focus...

Good day all, Is anyone using a hikvision PTZ with A Geovision NVR? I have added the new Hikvision DS-2DE4A225IW-DE to the NVR, and have the image, recording, alerts, etc going, but I am not sure how to configure the PTZ portion. PTZ digital works - but only within the currently displayed...

Hi, I'm currently planning to purchase a NVR for my 7 Hikvision IP cameras and I'm curious if there are any NVRs available with the following features? It has an advanced (with reliable filtering) human/vehicle tracking feature and it can control the PTZ cameras (through simple ONVIF commands)...

I’m using a HikVision and DS-2CD2183G0-I on Blue Iris but can’t get any PTZ controls to work. Here are my settings. Any ideas? Thanks.

Looking to replace a current camera I have but with the amount of IP cameras out there I'm kind of stuck knowing what's actually good or not. Originally I was just going to buy a 5MP non-brand camera but after reading here, I guess the sensors on most of them are not that great? Must haves...

I have an Pelco outdoor camera housing that is heated/vented that had a Panasonic BB-HCM381A indoor camera working fine in it for about 10 years before it quit. I'm looking to replace the Panasonic with a new INDOOR PTZ camera, preferably with POE. I don't need an all-in-one outdoor PTZ camera...

I know Im asking for a lot here. But looking for a solid PTZ camera under $500 that has a spotlight on it, IR, tracking humans (dogs optional) that can also rotate 360 degrees. That is fully compatible with Blue Iris 5 and has a wide angle if possible
