go to Information and see what is your file system version, the if it is MC500L then try ONVIF(OXML) under ptz/control
else delete the camera and then add and use the find /inspect ..
I also have a MC200J2 and i dont have any problems with cameras that use this web interface.

I check all of the settings. Deleted it and re added it. Got the same results. The only difference I can see is the camera software is a different version.
Also can I cannot connect to the camera in firefox. Only in IE.

Yes it only work on IE,
I dont have html5 but the rest of the numbers match.
No Luck with the IPG Either. I reached out the manufacturer. Hopefully they will have some answers. I will post what I find out from them.
ok good luck.. i bought mine from aliexpress but i dont have any good experience with the seller's response.
Alternatively, u can email BI for support if it's not expired yet.
I could just keep doing what I have been for the last month. Buying and returning cameras that are supposed to work and don't. So far I have returned 7 of them and this might be the 8th one. The funny part is there is only one brand that has done what it says it will. It is also the only one that gives me full color at night. I have actually thought about just buying more of those and ditching the PTZ just because it has been such a headache. I will reach out to BI First and see what they say.
If u want reliable .. go for the dahua ptz .. if u wan to roll the dice with these cheap cheapies then then what you pay is what you get
I realize that buying cheap cameras is not the best way to do this. But my budget is not 3.5K to 4K on a camera system. So cheap is my only option. I wish my budget was higher so I could buy the really good stuff. Currently I have 4 cameras setup and working quite well. I need 3 more to get the coverage I want.If u want reliable .. go for the dahua ptz .. if u wan to roll the dice with these cheap cheapies then then what you pay is what you get
I don't get what I pay for. I get things that don't even work as advertised. I am buying cheap camera's knowing full well that they will not work as well as the ones like Dahua or the more expensive brands. But I would expect them to at least do what they say they do.
I think we all are victims of false advertising these days. Not just with cameras but with just about anything we buy.
I have never set up a camera system before and the total lack of accurate information on the internet is frustrating. With the amount of time I have wasted with disinformation (false advertising) I should have just hired someone to install a canned system. But I have too much time and money invested already to scrap it now. Plus without spending several thousand dollars on a installed system I would probably get the same cheap camera with a huge markup and install bill.
What mid level brand do you recommend. I am looking to spend about 150.00 each on POE PTZ Camera.
The ones I have had the best luck with so far are Amcrest. But the POE PTZ they have is way outside of my budget.
From what I am seeing in these replies everyone that has the older version of this camera has it working. There must be something the manufacturer changed that broke it. Or I have a defective camera.
Same.. i buy these cheapies with the full knowledge that they will not work as well as the ones like Dahua.

I have a neighbor that has a camera pointed into my back yard and I want to have one that follows him when he walks around near my property. Or even on his. The is a long drawn out story but suffice it to say he is a real "NICE GUY".
He has 2 camera on his house and they are both pointed at my property. One at my driveway and the other into my back yard. I tried to do something about it but apparently it is legal as long as he is not looking into my windows. His wife has verbally attacked my 21 year old daughter about 20 times in the last 3 years. Threatened her with a gun on my property once too. He got nasty with my 18yr old son and my son just stared at him and laughed.
I may have to just use this one and save up for the upgrade. I need to capture all of this stuff so I can show it to the police if I need too. The police told him more than once to back off before something "bad" happened. They are the ones that recommended I put a camera system in.
From what I read following someone automatically can be dome with BI AI and a PTZ Camera. But I need to get the PTZ part working first. The other option I have considered is only using 1 PTZ and getting the inexpensive ones for the back yard.
Any one have any luck with SV3C Cameras.

SV3C is low end consumer grade junk. Ibought two, varifocl bullets, and one went to recycling and the other is destined for the same fate. No way to control frame, bit or iframe rates makes them useless, especially at night.
