So whats up with Blueiris, i installed 4.2.8.5 and i wanted to add my PTZ cam the sunba model to it.
This all works, i have a image, but the controls do not work.
The solution for setting it at PTZ control - Network IP- and then Xmeye does not excist anymore.
How can set the right one ? there is no sunba in the list as well.
So basically i can't ptz anymore (except from the part that it is still broken Pan/tilt)
Anyone else got this problem ?

Thanks allot !
Strange because i had it first at Xmeye at the ptz settings.
When i pressed detect it did not found the right setting.
Now it works again
and can give the Seller acces to the computer so he can do his test to see what is wrong with the cam in there opinion.

Anyone see any new firmware on this yet? One thing I'd like to do is adjust the brightness/contrast (can only do it in IE, not CMS), and have it stick. Currently, as soon as I close the pop up, it reverts back to default.
BTW, have you checked the price on these lately? $249!!!

Seems like a big price increase since early January when I paid $167.90 total (shipping included)! If you scroll down the product's AliExpress web page you can still see the old under $200 prices listed.

Edit: The following does not do the whole job. The settings for "Infrared On" change the image for both day and night images. The settings for "Infrared Off" do nothing.
Ok, finally figured this out. If you want to change brightness/contrast/saturation/Hue/Sharpness on this thing (and you get different settings for infrared Off and Infrared On!!!), here's what you do:
Open the Sunba in Internet Explorer (you can't do this in CMS)
On the right side, Select "Other"
From there, select "Color" (the "Color" immediately below "Other") (a window will pop up)
Make your changes for day (or night) to make it to your liking (depending on whether it's day or night
)
Do NOT close the pop up window (if you close the pop up window, your changes are lost)
Select "Reboot" (on the right side)
As soon as you lose the camera in Blue Iris (because it's rebooting), close Internet Explorer
The settings will be saved (YAY!). The new settings stay saved when you open that pop up again.
Do the same thing for night (or day if you've done night first)

Well, that was a big fat zero... It shows different settings for "IR off" and "IR on" but... the only settings that make changes to the actual image are on the "IR off" side. So here we still are with the need for different settings for each period as each really does need different settings. Contrast at 65 for the day is fantastic but way too noisy for my taste for night time. Contrast at 45 eliminates a lot of the noise at night, but is way too dark for day time...
(Maybe tomorrow I can play with saturation and get daytime better as it makes no difference to the night view). Funny thing, when you hit the reboot button and the camera comes back, the IR lights don't work until you do a cold boot on the camera...

Appreciate your efforts and postings. This camera does seem to have it's share of quirks. It still is a nice camera for it's size. Too bad about the price increase, I'm wouldn't pay the current price for one right now. I see they have an even smaller camera than this mini dome, but it appears to be made of plastic (I think it says polymer for the housing). Price is just under $150 for the 4X 1080P version (2.8mm to 12mm).

Despite the quirks, it's a real nice camera. Especially with the 360° pan, 20x zoom, and setup for an external microphone (Huisun just came out with their 10x having the audio jack for an external microphone). At the original price point, I would go for it over the Huisun any day (I own both). At the new price point, the Huisun is the clear winner (IMHO)...

I've sent another email to Sunba with my latest findings. Hopefully we can get some of these quirks fixed.

I purchased the XB model for $167.90 (with free shipping) in January. Now it is $249 with free shipping. The XC is over $300 when you include the shipping (not free with this model). I'm still not sure what the difference is between these 2 models though. Their website product web pages are very confusing.

Got a reply from Sunba about what I feel is the need to be able to adjust the day images and night images differently. Unfortunately, they quoted my post (#230) word for word as a fix, but missed my post (#231) where I updated that it didn't quite work out. I just edited post #230 to reflect that. At least we know 100% for sure now that they are aware of this thread, eh? That can only be good as they have feedback here on issues that need to be addressed to really make this camera good!
