Would really appreciate some ideas please.
The plan was/is to have a display by the front door showing an IP cam that is on the outside of my porch.
I fitted a Dahua intercom display which I believed was what I needed and which required a POE connection. The problem is that the firmware in it doesn’t just show the camera and if I want to see the cam there’s about 3 different button presses as it’s really a door entry system, and it only displays the cam for 5 minutes before turning off.
The issue is that I have bedded the cable into the wall and repaired all the plaster etc so simply changing it with an hdmi cable and power cable for a monitor connected to the NVR isn’t really an easy solution.
I’ve looked online and there are some Poe displays with inbuilt cameras which seem to be used in retail for checkouts etc. I also saw a monitor with POE but that seems to need an HDMI as well.
I appreciate what I am trying to do may be impossible but before I start again I just wondered if anyone had any ideas please
Thank you very much
