Is there a way to confirm a camera/stream is using the Nvidia GPU/hardware acceleration? I've tried nvidia-smi and nvitop and there's just one entry for Blue Iris, instead of multiple entries for each stream (unlike on Linux when it does show an entry for each stream).

This happens to me about once every 18 months (only with my android phones), but forget the previous fix every time. I believe the most consistent fix is un-checking/re-checking the device in Settings -> "Mobile devices" tab (but restarting the computer in-between un-checking and re-checking).

Pictured below is a Dahua IPC-HDBW5421E-Z and I need clarification on the jacks/ports (can't find anything with details on using them). The red one I thought was a composite mic-in, but when I plugged a mic in and got no sound (Microseven M7WP-MIC). Do I have to continue playing with the...

My phones (Samsung S22 Ultra and OnePlus 6T) suddenly stopped getting mobile notifications when motion is detected on my cameras (pop-up and sound). Here's the troubleshooting steps I've tried so far with no luck: Removed and reinstalled the Blue Iris Android app (3.0.36) Removed and re-added...

I have sub-streams at 640x480 H265 added to Blue Iris and they're all showing as and recording with a squished/taller aspect ratio (see attached). This is happening with both my Hikvision and Dahua cameras. Blue Iris lists/detects them properly as 640x480 in each camera's properties screen. The...

Good point about the bounce back, contrast, light and wasted space. I think I'll move it to the right

Someone stole a chair from the front yard one night and to my surprise the camera didn't record it. It's a Hikvision 8MP (4K) DS-2CD2185FWD-I fixed dome camera. Attached are my current settings for that camera (mainly default stuff) and snapshots of the scene at night, before the theft. I...

I'm running FreeNAS, but there is no recycle bin set up on that share. And Blue Iris is saying there's nothing to do, not saying delete failed, permission error. Blue Iris appears to be simply ignoring clips stored there

Done, but it doesn't remove old stuff from the NAS. I watched the rebuild via the Blue Iris Status and I noticed it only searches through the local storage (C: ) for Alerts and Stored (clips), but not the stuff moved to the NAS (E: ). Also, I see it moved some items to the NAS, but again didn't...

In the "Blue Iris Status" window the entry for Stored (clips on the NAS) says "Delete: nothing to do [0K/3.05T, 2.00T free]". Odd it says 0K when there's 13T there and there's definitely more than 2.00T free (6.18T free). So it looks like Blue Iris is not properly reading the disk space used and...

Yes, it is able to write to the NAS - it has been writing successfully to the NAS for the last 25 months, just hasn't deleted anything (hence ballooning to 13 TB).

I'm running Blue Iris 4.8.6.3 (current version more than meets my needs, don't need to upgrade to version 5 at this point) and have clips set to move to my NAS (SMB/CIFS) after 7 days and then set to delete from the NAS with the "Limit size" at 3125 GB. I checked my clips folder on the NAS and...

Thanks! Re-installing using the latest full installer worked. For safe measure, I un-installed Blue Iris, restarted Windows, Blue Iris was still listed in Programs and Features so I un-installed it again and got a message saying something about it being uninstalled already and if I wanted to...

Blue Iris is suddenly crashing and then restarting every 5 seconds or so. I stopped and started the service, restarted the computer, compact and repaired database and upgrade Blue Iris to the latest (4.8.4.2) but it still loops. The traffic icon in Blue Iris loops between red and green and the...

Yes, the clips are in the new location on the second hard drive (now SMB share... had problems with iSCSI drive), but BI doesn't list them in the Clips side panel. It doesn't matter for now, there's nothing crucial in any clips so far. I'll wait until the threshold is met in New and see if the...
