Re: Best way to Pool Drives

7/12/2023 Note: As pointed out, I made an embarrassing mistake on the Raid type. I've corrected this post as not to confuse. Raid 0 - Stripe Raid 1 - Mirror Raid 10 - Stripe and mirror - Better option, but twice as pricey. Raid 3 or 5 - Best option. Less costly than Raid 10.. although the enclosure...

elgato Stream Deck XL

A note about the ' elgato Stream Deck '. The Stream Deck was updated to changed profiles according to the program that has focus. Much like the Contour Shuttle. You choose which program(s) will change profiles. All other programs will share the default profile. Each button has it's own color lcd scr...

Re: elgato Stream Deck XL

I've seen these and they look interesting. My impression was that they were mostly useful for streamers; can you give me an idea of what it would be useful for in terms of Blue Iris? ... I would use it for programs, like... VLC, DaVinci Resolve, Various Video editors, and, Blue Iris. For Blue Iris,...

Re: elgato Stream Deck XL

Found the solution.

I needed to start the 'Stream Deck' program 'As Administrator'.
Simplest way is to set the .exe to 'Run as Admin' in the Program folder. That way, any shortcut will also run as Admin.

The Stream Deck is... awesome! It will be a nice addition to my Shuttle Pro.

Re: Turn Android phone into security camera ?

In the past, I've used DroidCam. There are a lot of other similar apps.

elgato Stream Deck XL

Anyone have elgato Stream Deck XL, and has gotten it to work with Blue Iris? Can you post an export of a profile with BI? Got it this morning. It's awesome. Tested it with VLC, Google Chrome. But, it does not seem to work with BI. I've tried disabling Firewall, Virus protection. Tested by setting up...

Re: BI 5 Feature suggestion thread

That sounds complex and might be a good candidate for that open source side-package that does some machine learning. I've been interested in that integration but haven't had a chance to play with it yet. It is the motion of the shadows that has always killed me. BI isn't smart enough yet to disting...

Re: Continuous Recording but only move Alerts to Stored?

So there is no way to only keep Triggered video after a specific amount of time and I have to keep continuous footage for whatever days I set in the "Stored" tab? For Continuous Recordings, Alerts are 'pointers' to the alerts in the continuous bvr files, and not separate video files. Yes,...

Re: Analyze video for motion after it has been recorded

Another method that I use, is to CLONE the Camera, and setup the clone specifically for the issue. In this case, your Neighbor. - Set Zone A for your neighbors house & area. - Set the motion sensor settings to detect , Alerts... Now you have a Camera (Clone) that will detect motion sensor settin...

Re: Analyze video for motion after it has been recorded

There are many tutorials, and information here on doing this. Here is my 2 cents. It is next to impossible to get alerts on objects in the far background. You would need to set the motion sensor so sensitive that a leaf fluttering & bird flying by in the foreground would trigger! Is there a way ...
