I bought a Dahua PTZ camera a few months ago and have been unable to get the PTZ functionality to work within Blue Iris or the webUI3. If I log into the camera directly using its IP address, I can use the PTZ controls... but it does not work in Blue Iris on my computer or the app.

What settings do I need to set to ensure this works?

1. Did you use Find/Inspect to configure the camera from BI?
2. Under the PTZ/Control tab, is the Enable/Pan/Tilt/Zoom enabled?
3. Are you using the PTZ controls below the camera display or interactive controls on the display?
4. Which PTZ model?

ON the Hikvision I had to enable ONVIF and add a user to the ONVIF access before PTZ would work.

In camera properties go to the PTZ/Control tab. Try Dahua New V4 in network IP
