What is the model of the camera? Some can get wired to the rs485 of the dvr and the dvr can access it's OSD.

Sample pictures from one I had in my office to test it out before I installed it.

I have Dahua 1080P IP outdoor PTZ's for sale. I have the low lux no infrared version and I have the infrared version.

The non IR version is 1500.00 and the IR version is 1600.00. Please ad shipping depending how far you are from NY.

I accept paypal and I can set up an ebay auction so you have buyer protection. These are band new in box, never

used once. Email me if you would like to purchase one or more. Warrior1700cc@verizon.net

I would check your bnc connections, make sure your camera has proper power, and try another pair if you have.

Not only install active x, but add the URL of the dvr into 'trusted sites' in internet options, security.

Are there loop outs on the dvr for each channel? Is there a phone number for the manufacturer that you can speak to someone? Are there any other techs

on the board here that have any ideas?

Have you tried rebooting the dvr? Completely powering it down, wait 5 minutes, than power it up?

you originally said the wire with power in it. So you cut the wire with video going to the dvr and the power wire for the camera. I'll say it again, did you

fix the power issue? I think your making the mistake that the dvr channel is bad because the camera that you connected to the dvr is not displaying a picture

because it no longer has power since you cut the wire through it while it had power. If you truly believe channel one is fried, did you take the camera in

channel two that is currently displaying a camera and plug it into channel one?

For 100 more, the dahua system is worth it. Do not forget about powering the cameras though, I did not see that on your list.

Either replace the fuse in the power supply, or if it's a thermal fuse, try resetting the power supply. If your using a plug in transformer, replace the

transformer. If you cut the power wire, what makes you think the channel is bad on the dvr though?

How do you like that 1080P camera?

Netgear also makes some small wireless battery operated cameras that record onto their servers, but you

pay a monthly service charge to view and record them.

Does it come right after it cools off?

Is this a cctv forum or a sex forum?

So does anyone know why Vector's camera blacks out the over exposed pixels? In my opinion it looks terrible. There's surely no design/engineering reason behind this?

As for Shockwave's camera, I guess it's overheated and begun to fail. Does it come right after it cools off?

That is an option within the camera. We had alot of sunlight coming into the building and the iris was closing

too much if we didn't use that masking feature. It only appears while heavy amounts of sunlight. For the most part of the day, the image does not have those black spots. I do agree they look horrible and I'd rather go with WDR cameras, but those were what my boss had given me to install.

720P is $69.99/PC

Why don't you post a link to this wifi ptx thats 720p for 69.99

It amazes me that they advertise those cheap foscams as ptz's but their only pt's!

The one I ordered has 3x optical which is about equal to a 9mm lens. I really dont need much zoom, I'm more concerned with being outdoor and connecting via wifi. If the pan and tilt is slow that is also ok with me. All I want to do is to be able to pan and tilt onto where I park my car on a public street and than record it from a remote location onto an external hard drive I have set aside.

Welcome to the world of the internet. I myself whenever I enter a store to purchase something, I pull out

my Iphone and click on safari and see who has the cheapest price. Everyone including yourself works hard

for their money and should have the right to try to save some of it. If they want to install a cctv system

by themselves and ask us for help, so be it. The world is a huge place and what are the chances someone

in my neighborhood would have called me to install their system if this forum did not exist?

Shame the performance is such a letdown

On the Agassio?

I am sorry to burst the bubble here but the GS854P are not outdoor cameras. Gadspot says they are, and so do a lot of people selling them on the net. But it is a big fat lie. All the vandal proof domes that look like the snail type and have 36ir, are not weather proof. They have rubber for a so-called seal, but the factories that make them say they are only for indoor use. Sellers in the US are just marking them as IP66 when really they are not. Don't waste your money.

I have a ton of the snail type cameras out in the field and they have survived thunderstorms and even more. How

do you explain that?

I bought one from agassio/foscam so I'll try it out next week and give a review. The price is very

reasonable and other reviews were not so bad.

I'm just guessing right now, but probably an auto tracking, auto zoom, megapixel IP ptz would probably cost

more money than several fixed IP megapixels. And I wouldn't trust just one camera to cover my entire

property, just my .02.

Have you tried any of my suggestions or you only want to know what's causing it?

You have a ground loop. Either change power supply, plug into a different source, or install a ground loop

isolator.

In that sample video, are the IR's even on????

Not all effios are, but 700tvl cameras are equivalent to 960h. He did not say in his first which cameras he had so I was only suggesting.
