Re: CPU overload

Sub streams are the way to go with BI now that the bugs are out. I run an i7-4790, 22 cameras at 15fps, no hardware acceleration, averaging 16-18% CPU usage.

Re: No updates for a week and a half!

I run 20 cameras on an gen one i7 and my CPU usage ran near 90% with my fps set at from 10 to 15. After configuring the sub streams it now runs around 25% CPU. Actually you are in good sh...

Re: Is Priority Support Working?

I give Ken credit for the work he is doing being a small operator. I love the software and for the price, I have gotten my moneys worth several times over the past couple of years. With the newer sub steam option CPU usage is not an issue anymore.
