The picture is fine when IR lights are off but when the room goes dark the screen for these cameras go all white. This is a series of pictures showing as the lights are going out what happens with the cameras image. Any suggestions? I purchased these from ebay and I don't seem to be getting much help from the seller, seems they don't understand English very well either (or computers).
