    Hello,
    Before I added this post, I searched the forums and the internet for a few days and found no clue.
    Namely
    I have monitoring around the house and the buildings next door in two analog and digital systems via WIFI
    If it matters then:
    Analogs - recorder and BCS cameras connected with a twisted pair
    Digital - Goclever Omega EYE2 transmission via WIFI
    I can't add the movie because I'm new here, but just enter "201707290300" on YOUTUBE
    A few days ago, literally a few seconds after 3 o'clock (the time difference results from different times set in the recorder and the camera) on two cameras located 20cm next to each other (one analogue, the other digital) there were strange image disturbances after about 2 minutes, the situation repeated, behind the fence and in the shed there were traces of uninvited guests, so I exclude the possibility of nature activities - the rest of the material does not raise any objections. They were theoretically able to approach the cameras themselves, unnoticed by the narrow blind spot. Nothing strange appeared on the rest of the cameras.
    Anyone have any idea what this could be caused by? I would like to secure monitoring for the future against such a situation.
    greetings

    IMHO, someone shone a powerful flashlight on the camera and improved the effect with a water gun or a similar "doggie" ...

    Maybe it is an attempt to blind you, for example, with a laser pointer? But why play in Hollywood, when you could approach the cameras and neutralize / cover them?
    Anyone else has access to preview the recorder material? Partner of "Różowa Pantera"?
    Are the neighbor's kids not at the stage of their fascination with action cinema by chance?

    You can protect yourself in many ways: increase the number of cameras, add perimeter protection - e.g. curtains, external PIRs under the camera, fences and barbed wire, a dog, an army of guards, sign up for the PIS. It is possible to become paranoid. Security must be adapted to what is protected. Cameras are most useful for large areas and round-the-clock observation. Around the house, they serve to satisfy curiosity, because we see the event after the fact. I would suggest an alarm system - an ordinary reed switch in the shed door will perform better than many cameras.

    I also thought about it, I also thought about using some kind of smoke candle, but firstly the cameras are practically at 90 degrees to each other and one is placed to the side vertical edge of the roof and the other is underneath it on the horizontal soffit (and if they were to be mounted on on one plane of the camera so that they "see each other" from a distance of these 20cm - I do not know if I wrote it clearly, it is because they seem to overlap)) so blinding two cameras without leaving any traces on the lens covers is in my opinion impossible, and after this situation the picture is normal. The smoke mainly excludes the clear image from the camera directed at the garden less than two meters away. On Saturday night, I tried steam from the ionizer simulating fog, and smoke from burning wet grass and the effects are completely different.
    Added after 45 [minutes]:
    Only I have access to the cameras, the wifi network on which the cameras work, the recorder and the computer to operate do not have permanent access to the Internet. There is only one allowed IP in the recorder. Even the manufacturer does not have access passwords to IP cameras, the only option is access through a dedicated application. Of course, the cameras are not the basic security feature, but only an addition to scare the thief away and to preview the course of possible events, such as what can be seen in the class and quality of the equipment. I have very effective security for important rooms. I am only interested in the possible reason for this type of image and the possible possibility of securing the cameras without becoming paranoid. I treat it more as a loose topic as part of a curiosity because I did not find a similar effect on the monitoring image on the Internet.

    No illuminators, no lasers.

    There is a cobweb in front of the camera illuminator (these are the stripes)
    Additionally, what you can see, flying - it is dust / water vapor particles (if there is fog at night).

    How many of them are there + these cobwebs - the camera switches to day mode for a moment - i.e. closes the IR filter - i.e. the camera does not see IR light (sees the darkness). The processor then sees darkness, switches to night mode again (removing the IR filter) and the camera sees the light from its illuminator reflected by cobwebs and flying dust again.

    In my opinion, wrong camera setting (what are the settings of this camera as for the day / night mode?)
    Additionally - clean these cobwebs in front of the camera - they will stop reflecting IR light.

    At the end - if the camera has no settings - which would explain the fact that it is a cheap "Gowno" from a company that has nothing to do with monitoring. Apart from removing the spider webs - you won't do anything else (unless you install a halogen lamp with a motion sensor)

    Unfortunately, the above does not explain the traces of someone's presence. The cobwebs are only in the field of view of the analog camera which has the image all the time (well, even the image behind the cobwebs for this camera there is a clear problem only on the right side of the image). IR light does not turn off. I do not even mention the light on the digital camera because it occurs even under ideal conditions, watching time-lapse when switching to night mode. It's only about the "fog". There was no fog, as I wrote on any other camera, there was no such effect, even the one 2 meters away. Apart from these two minute events, there were no image problems all night long. The recorder recorded motion detection photos from these moments, in the last dozen or so days there were no alarms from this camera, despite the fact that the spider's web had been in the same place at least 7 days earlier. As I wrote several times, there are obvious traces of someone's presence, I do not think that anyone can pass under a camera that sees the entire passage, so the only clue are these two fragments. I also wrote what cameras are and what functions of existence they have, so this is not a place for advice on your equipment, because it is not intended to recognize faces at night from 20 meters. I presented the topic as a curiosity for discussion, too many facts preclude the action of nature, unless I have some shamans :) I sleep soundly with the thought that I have no video of visitors in my area, I am only very curious about the reason for such an image, taking into account the factors I have mentioned. Let's respect each other, this is a topic for reflection, not for top-down opinion on the basis of the most common causes of such problems. greetings

    But I did not write that the IR light is turned off by the camera, but I said and the ICR filter.
    As for the fog, there doesn't need to be any fog, high humidity is enough ...
    Believe me ... It's not a UFO, it's not a ghost, it's not someone.
    This is the technique itself and your camera's flaw.
    I could come to you, take you to listen to the skipping converter ...
    Believe in your own imaginary.

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around strange image disturbances occurring in BCS and Goclever Omega EYE2 cameras at specific times, particularly around 3 AM. The user reports that both an analog BCS camera and a digital Goclever Omega EYE2 camera, positioned close to each other, exhibited these disturbances simultaneously. Various theories are proposed, including the possibility of external interference such as powerful flashlights or laser pointers. However, some responses suggest that the disturbances may be due to environmental factors like dust, humidity, or cobwebs affecting the camera's infrared (IR) functionality. The user emphasizes that the disturbances coincide with traces of potential intruders, indicating a need for further investigation into the camera settings and environmental conditions affecting image quality.
