Very interesting and helpful, thank you! I will check tonight.

Hello everyone - you all were super helpful for my last issue about a month ago and my system is working quite well now. Thanks! I've searched around but my problem seems to be slightly different than others. My issue is that I'm able to successfully setup email and send a test email that comes...

Ah, I'll need to check this when I'm back to my PC. Thanks for the heads up! Excellent! Thank you I was able to do this yesterday and upgrade to BI 5. Truthfully I had some issues where it was crashing immediately but it looks like that was because I did not make the step of turning off BI as a...

Makes sense. I will do this, I should have room for a 3.5" HDD in the case and I have a few I can choose from not in use. I've just installed version 5 BI and it's in eval mode of course, but I cannot upgrade for $30 unless I'm just missing the location for the link? It says I have to buy the...

Excellent, thank you I will check into that very soon. I did reconfig each of the cams last night and let everything run overnight, and also researched a little more into my windows log error and it was possibly (but not certainly) a display driver issue, so I re-installed that and actually...

I'm going to give that a shot; upgrading to version 5. I trust I can export version 4 legacy setting to a .reg file and import into version 5?

Thanks. I've read through that and will make changes to my fps and I frame interval tonight when I have more time (since I have to do those through browser one by one). One thing I'm confused about is my Blue Iris does not have the options for Main and Sub stream configuration through blue iris...

I actually do not know what the I-frame is or means. I have the cameras themselves set to 20 but have no idea how or why. What do you mean syncing them up between main and sub streams?

HWMonitor is showing a max of 39% today but I also made some changes to my configs like dropping down frame rates to 5 fps, And somehow every camera had direct to disc wrong and it was doing encoding (which was in error on my part, as I intended DTD of course). The 39% memory usage was with my...

Hello everyone. I'm having an issue with my current PC running BI (dedicated to BI only) and running my cams, the computer will be completely frozen sometimes after half a day, sometimes after a week, and anything in between. I'm wondering if it may be that I have too many cams on this G4560...

I've searched for this answer but couldn't find anything. I'm currently using tinyCam PRO (which is great!) to remotely view my Dahua IP cams. I like the feature where I can see all the cameras streaming at once, but I have 8 cams so when not on wifi (at work) this can suck up quite a bit of...

Thanks everyone for the help. I purchased an OpenVPN router and got it working just fine! It's actually much easier to use than I thought. The one thing that bugs me though is that my camera feed when over a strong LTE signal the feeds are really juttery and inconsistent. I don't think it's a...

I was about to go ahead and purchase this but realized that black friday is just around the corner. Here's some deals that popped up. Can any of these run an OpenVPN server? Google search results seem unlcear... are any significantly better that would be worth paying a few extra bucks? like the...

Excellent, thank you everyone! :)

Thank you. So in terms of just a regular residential camera security system, I likely don't need to worry about encrypting outgoing traffic likely, right?
