Help w/ Arecont cameras and BI - ONVIF Port

Post by mcvoss »

Hello,

I have a couple Arecont 10mp cameras w/ 100' IR's They work great in Milestone but not so well in BI. Blue Iris doesn't recognize substreams and only puts the cameras at 2.1 MP. The cameras are 10225PMTIR. I have their last firware loaded but they have since disoconued the cameas. BI doesn't recognize all of the features and I'm guessing it's becasue of the Discovery/ONVIF port is incorrect. BI sets it at 8999. Any suggestions or is it a lost cause, hope not.

Any ideas on different ports to try?

They are ONVIF complient - ONVIF Profile S, PSIA Conformance

I really don't want to buy 2 new cameras.

Thanks,

MIchael

Could you not try changing the port on the cam itself to see if BI can then properly detect the cam?

I've had a look at the installation manual, and it doesn't mention Onvif ports or settings, however this Arecont Support page does. I was going to suggest using ODM to find the settings, but it's all in that Support info.

This Support page shows how to connect to rtsp streams.

Good luck :idea:
