Re: Covert camera suggestions?

Thanks for the info. Those Revotech cameras seem to have pretty good image quality. I'll have to take this one apart and see exactly what's inside and if I can find a replacement to just fix/rebuild this one. If memory serves, it's 940nm version, but as it's not functioning now and I've never really...

Covert camera suggestions?

I have a POE/IP 5MP 'covert' camera 'made by' GW Security that is hidden inside of a PIR sensor type enclosure, that has worked well, but after five years in use, it's given up the ghost. This particular camera does not seem to be available any more, but of course Amazon has a number of cameras I co...

Re: BI Deleted all clips

It was configured so new clips go to 'New' (BlueIris\Video) with a size limit of 200GB, at which point they got moved to 'Stored' (BlueIris\Stored) with a size limit of 1400GB, no time restrictions/setting, only size. This has been configured like this for at least four years without a hiccup until ...

Re: Does BI Support exist??

Last Wednesday, I pasted the license details as copied by clicking the 'e-mail support' button into a forward of the e-mail chain and sent it off, and still not even a peep from them :x

Re: BI Deleted all clips

Basically, when I discovered it, I restarted the service and that seemed to stop it. hasn't done it since. I poked around the logs best I could but nothing stood out to me. If New and Stored are in the same drive then don’t bother moving clips around, just use either New or Stored set to the availab...

BI Deleted all clips

In the beginning of January, one evening, I suddenly noticed that my BI instance was showing that I had no clips in the Web UI, although it was still reporting 98%+ disk usage as was typical. When I logged into the machine running BI, I found that the Blue Iris volume only had a couple hundred GB in...

Does BI Support exist??

I have paid for extended support since the support on my initial purchases (two BI installs) ended, and on Jan5, I e-mailed support and have e-mailed several times since, but have gotten no reply.... Does anyone have a phone number for them, since there doesn't seem to be a contact number on their s...

Re: Looking for tips on Hyper-V setup.

LOL. OMG! Noooooo! He's joking. If you do venture to the 'dark site', go gently and be wary... you'll find out! There are plenty of post here to help with performance. Look in the 'Onboarding' and 'Tips and Tricks' sections in this forum. That's no joke lol! If you say ANYTHING he doesn't agree wit...

Sub Stream and Main Stream going out of sync

I've been running BI for some time now and have periodically had issues with the main stream and sub stream going out of sync. I thought I had it fixed as I hadn't had any issues in a while, but it's cropped up again, worse than ever. An example is the FedEx driver dropped off some boxes today, and ...

Re: BI CPU Usage descrepancy

I adjusted that down to 0.33 and the usage reported by BI is pretty much in line with task manage. But what's the point to such a setting? Wouldn't it make more sense for BI to either report its CPU usage or the systems overall CPU usage, not 'skew' it in some fashon?
