Just got one of these, added it to a collection of Lorex and Hikvision. It went surprisingly well and most things work. Curious if others have it, and have any tips to share. I am confused (and have seen both recommendations) on setup, Generic/ONVIF or Reolink, both seem to work. I saw one recommend...

Using CodeProject 2.2.4 beta, YOLOv5 6.2 1.6.1, BI 5.7.9.12 on W10x64 Pro. I recently added a new camera, and as a side effect have been paying some much needed attention to my setup. I set the new camera up (a Reolink RLC-823A 16x) to do the motion detection itself, previously it was all BI. Not su...

So I am completely baffled. i THINK that setting iframe to 1 helped. It seemed to, but I experimented tonight and could not reproduce it on cameras without that setting. I THOUGHT that setting that to one would impact compression substantially, and make for larger files. The file size did not change...

As I understand it (and I almost certainly do not fully) the H.26x compressions depend on a periodic complete frame, then just send deltas. The periodic ghost looks a bit like a similar interval. I'll try using 1 vs 12 and see what happens, but I think one change is going to be vastly more data in b...

PS. Running Release 5.4.8.0 x64.

I think the answer is "not there" but just in case I missed it... I record continuously and keep about 30 days worth. I have triggers set up to identify certain types of motion, e.g. people or cars approaching the house. Works fairly well. Sometimes however I will find something occurred i...

I have an ongoing issue and could use a pointer. I record continuously at 4fps (limited in the camera settings) from 4k cameras both Hikvision and Lorex. The Blue Iris settings are Generic/ONVIFD, RTSP H.264/H.265/MJPG/MPEG4 and generally how it defaults. The issue is the same for Lorex and Hikvisio...

I am far from an expert but I have had some luck with using zones and triggering only on motion between them, e.g. put a set across my driveway and require motion from A to B to C to trigger as they approach the house. Obviously this can miss real motion that does not cooperate with the scheme I mon...

For clarity if not obvious: Port forwarding and uPnP and firewall rules all relate to allowing access to the cameras and/or blue iris from outside your home network. For access only from inside, none of this is needed (or desirable). Properly setting up outside-to-inside access is not all that hard ...

I'll do an experiment at home here and switch my four cameras from 265 to 264 and see what the GPU reports. I'll post back with the results. And what I'm doing in testing (admittedly not exactly real world) is showing all cameras on the UI, the scrubbing back and forth quickly on the clip to drive ...
