bmj 0 Posted September 23, 2017 Hi All I installed CCTV cameras behind my glass windows, during the day it works fine but in the night nothing visible, even if i come close the camera it shows my shadow only. please note that I don't have option for installation cameras outside. please suggest some thing. Thanks BMJ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hi, Thanks for the tip, is it possible to do from the DVR or camera? its a Chinese product and I am not sure if it has much options to play around.

Orange Security 0 Posted September 25, 2017 If you can not install anything outside, maybe your best bet is to disable the IR on the camera and just live with night time images without IR? Maybe there is some light from street lamps or similar? If you can not disable the IR LEDs, then maybe use some electrical tape to cover. It's not an ideal solution having to look through a window.
