    disable desktop frames possible?

    yes, but the frame was in the background. I was rather asking if it is possible to disable this function entirely

    disable desktop frames possible?

    When dragging a camera window out of BI the window becomes a separate window outside of BI and potentially hidden behind all other windows. Is there a way to disable this behavior? My dad dragged out a camera making it a separate window and trying to fix it made it worse. It would be sufficient...

    Is there a way to tell which of the motion detection areas has triggered?

    I set up Motion Detection on a Hikvision DS-2CD2142FWD-I camera. Is there a way to tell which of the 8 motion detection areas has triggered the recording? (Yes MD results in a lot of recordings I am aware of that)

    Switch recommendation

    I had a Mokerlink Switch 10 port POE with 2 GBIT uplink that died on me. It simply does not come alive anymore. I already opened it up and the power board supplies power to the second board where all LAN related components are - so I guess unfixable for me.... I then replaced it with my Netgear...

    green triangle beneath camera and main stream status but nothing in BI status and no information what it means

    it is sporadic so I have trouble getting a screenshot... Here is the main window, this cam has no IR so black only currently: I also saw the same green triangle but bigger on the right side of the blue bar on the bottom but have not managed to get that on screenshot: Edit: hold on... there...

    green triangle beneath camera and main stream status but nothing in BI status and no information what it means

    In BI sometimes I see a green triangle next to a camera. What does this green triangle mean? BI itself has the BI Status where (as I understand) all messages from all cameras are gathered (I see a signal restore where I switched off a camera, so the status collects messages). But with this...

    Why is BI displaying a lower frame rate than the camera puts out?

    I do not remember why I set it at this shutter speed, probably because the image was too dark at night. The camera cannot do some automatic shutter speed.

    Why is BI displaying a lower frame rate than the camera puts out?

    It is a Hikvision DS-2CD2142FWD-I and is capable of doing 30fps.

    Does Line Crossing detection need an iframe to trigger? Does it need an iframe if running directly on the camera?

    Yes, the camera has this ability and it does work. If there is an event detected it is sent to Surveillance Station doing the recording. So the detection is not done in SS (which would definitly require an iframe) but it is done in the camera (which is the question if the camera needs an iframe...

    Does Line Crossing detection need an iframe to trigger? Does it need an iframe if running directly on the camera?

    I am not sure, I found nothing about the Hik protocol in the cam settings in Surveillance Station, but the event detection algorithm source can be done by camera or by surveillance station. I guess the camera still is doing the detection, but that does not answer the question :(

    BI: What means Setup -1 for 'h264'..... Does it mean HW acceleration is active?

    In the BI Status for the cameras I understand that HW VA not compatible means the current Hardware acceleration is not compatible, so I must set a different one. From here: https://ipcamtalk.com/threads/what-does-hw-va-not-compatible-mean.18866/ What does the following line mean: "HW decode"...

    Why is BI displaying a lower frame rate than the camera puts out?

    The exposure settings are in Image-Display Settings-Exposure settings, correct? If so, there is only: Iris Mode: Manual Exposure Time: 1/12 Network setup: From the PC I have BI on, to a Netgear 1GBit switch to a Netgear 1GBit Switch to the camera. Would this information be sufficient?

    Why is BI displaying a lower frame rate than the camera puts out?

    That is the case, I only use H264.

    Why is BI displaying a lower frame rate than the camera puts out?

    I set up a IP camera in Blue Iris. For testing I set the cam to Constant Bit Rate, best quality and 30 fps. BI is reporting a main stream frame rate of around 10 fps. Why is BI displaying a lower frame rate than the camera puts out? The Max Rate in BI is set to 30 fps for this camera.
