Those are both great ideas. I tried unplugging all of my cameras and adding them one by one plugging them in, but it didn’t resolve anything. I checked hardware acceleration and 265 and all cameras and they’re all shut off. I have definitely had issues with hardware acceleration over the years...

Ok, I tested the HD and SSD and it checked out fine. I actually did replace it last year bc the SSD failed on me after many years. I tried safe mode too. I had some odd hunch that one camera was causing it. Bc one of the feeds was black even though I can enter the Dahua camera gui fine via...

Blue Iris 5.2.xx has been amazing for me. It has worked hiccup free for many years. but this morning blue Iris is in a crashing loop. I have restarted the computer several times and all cameras. But every time you open the app on the computer, the app freezes and windows asked me if I want to...

Oh yes. Maybe I wasn’t clear. That is what I have done already. I removed the CD drive to install the SSD to run the OS. I just taped it in there. Then use the HD cradle for the purple drive. But wanted to add a 3rd drive (another 4TB purple) but I don’t think there is room inside the case for...

Thank you for the help with the alerts folder. I thought that was the folder anytime there was a motion alert……that it saved the 15 or so seconds of video. Which always confused me because sometimes after it played that small section of video, the playback would stop and frustrate me...

I used the info about and calculated TBW on the SSD from the cameras to be just under a year. So this all makes great sense now. I was able to stop using the Stored folder (put 0) and only use the New folder (put 3500 then delete). Are you guys still using an Alerts folder, or should I put...

Always something new to learn. That’s one of the reasons I like the challenge of IP cameras in Blue Iris. This small 240GB SSD has been recording 7x 4MP cams for almost a year. Wonder the TBW on 275MP/s 24/7 a year. What SSD brand and models are you guys using to record on Blue Iris? That fit...

EVERYONE'S comments make great sense. I know better than to write directly to SSD constantly but I thought that is who people were doing it for better alert speed playback from the new folder. I guess everything comes with compromise. I must have misunderstood this. I will try to get the drive...

Unfortunately, my main sytem SSD has failed again. It failed april 2022 and I replaced it. What am I doing wrong? It is a Sandisk 240GB SSD. On a Dell Optiplex. I inserted the drive to another computer and also can't get past the windows screen with a loading circle. I have unplugged it a few...

Thank you @Tinman. This error has been an issue for me the last month, but switching to javascript setting fixed it for me. Appreciate the original poster and everyone's troubleshooting on this one.

I played around with that just now. It does give you access to the entire clip. But when playing it back it will skip from alert to alert and not let me see the entire clip on the time that I want to view. Also, sometimes the clip just runs out and I know there's more but I can't get to the...

I apologize if I am missing the obvious. I have read the help section and manual. Is there a way to filter out (.jpg snapshot images) from the "Clips" playback button? I have our system taking a still photo when triggered. Those save for long term storage. Working well. But when trying to...

Please no

Thank you so much! I will try it out in the morning. And not request anything else from ya for a while :)

Oh that makes total sense now that you explain it. It is working so well, so probably no reason to overcomplicate things. Thanks for your hard work on this UI.
