Re: Database seems corrupted

With my i7-8700k (16GB RAM) and 16+TB of recordings, deleting and rebuilding the db takes under 30 minutes. That has a 1TB SSD and the rest are rusty platters. Your db rebuild was slow. Anybody else have times for db rebuilds from zero ?

I have had the same unchanged setup for past few years, but only in last few days have I been seeing this error on quite a few of my cameras. "It's built in to recent versions." So, is this a "potential issue" that has "always been there" but only now visible since thi...

Shift+Ctrl m...

Windows location API BI5 v5.9.0

Interesting info from the help file: 5.9.0 - April 24, 2024 Integration with the Windows Location API. A new Settings/Location page has been added to manage this integration. Additional location settings moved from the Schedule tab. Maybe not for me at home though: If your PC has a GPS sensor and th...

Re: use Blue Iris to call functions on camera on timed schedule

If you can find a command that works from a browser, then this could work. I think an in depth read of the manual for the camera may give the answers. If not, a query to the supplier.

Re: Anyone know if the newer Swann cams work with Blue Iris? SWNHD-1200DE

It doesn't look like it, but that thread from the dark side seemed to explain it well. Just make sure you can send it back ! Then experiment and post back here to detail your success story for the people that may follow you 8-)

Re: Run as a windows service makes PC unresponsive?

Doesn't quite seem right, but I'm wondering if your anti-virus solution is doing this. Can you disable it and test ? It's going to be something weird, and not setting AV exclusions fits that, but then it should affect it when not running as a service too. :!: Have a look if Reliability History gives...
