If you click on the icon that shows the status page of the cams, storage etc on the Logs tab there should be an option to save the log files away monthly. If this isn’t ticked then a restart of BI clears the logs and they are gone forever.

Have you recently updated BI? I do recall an update where people said they lost their protected clips as an update had untagged them and they were then lost as part storage management. Personally I never use this feature, if a clip is that important I manually both export and copy the BVR file(s) ov...

I always advocate leaving at least 10% or if you really need the extra space 5% of the total disk space free. Writing to a drive and leaving only 10gb free is a recipe for problems. In terms of overallocation, if BI is writing to an existing clip file it will continue writing even if it means it ove...

I think we have discussed this before. My view is that if you run your cameras on a different LAN with no internet connection, it doesn't matter which mothership the cameras attempt to connect to. I agree. A lot of cam manufacturers are charging a lot more for compliant cams, I’d rather pocket the ...

As I’ve mentioned before, in my opinion the management of the licensing model is all screwed up. It would would take little to no effort to have all the major stable releases available on the BI website so that users are able to download their required version instead of trying to locate a version o...
