Hello Everyone,

I am tinkering with a camera system for my home & shop. My goal is to have a PC based NVR, running Blue Iris, that I can view on my big screen TV. I picked up some SYWSTODA cameras that claim to support ONVIF. The documentation does not match the cameras. I have managed to get them to play with the CMS NVR software that I downloaded from the vendor.

However, the options the set up the camera do not exist as shown in the docs. If I browse to it I get its internal web server offering a link to the software.

I have never worked with the Blue Iris or these particular cameras before and find myself a little stumped.

Is anyone here familiar with these cameras or something similar?

Suggestions?
 
Have you used "Find and Inspect" when configuring the camera(s)? Just enter the IP address and login credentials for the camera and click "Find and Inspect". If they are, indeed, ONVIF compliant BI will pick the best configuration. If BI can't see them, try using "INVIF Manager", free app, to see if that can see them. If neither sees them, you were scammed.
