Tony, thanks so much. As complicated BI is (to me) I was hesitant to try it. But I soon tired of lugging my old setup and getting it all hooked decided to give it a go. It was rather easy with your concise but accurate info. At first it wouldn't accept my newly created PW. I tried the Admin...

I will but I'm in the process of relocating my edit PC to another room, adding fiber, changing routers and making so many changes to where it was. Thanks

Tried to install IP Camera Viewer and got the message "It will be installed on your device soon". It never gets installed. Never saw that before. I think I'm out of updates as in my CB is too old. Didn't pay attention on Amazon and found it's a model that's new. but several years old. That...

The Chromebook has a small screen but an HDMI output so I would use the 19" monitor with it. The old PC is only a 15". The screen will be about 10' away so the bigger the better.

Thanks. Just tried on my phone and it works well. Wonder if they have it for PC since I found an old laptop with a larger screen than the Chromebook.

Thanks, I'll give this a try

I have an unused Chromebook and a 19" monitor that I would like to place in my living room, just to monitor one camera out of 3. If not BI, maybe an Opensource program I could run on the CB ? I've searched and and found a few references to Chromebook but it's all fragmented (for me)? Would...

To delete clips I use CTL-A to select them all, then Del to delete them, until the last update. Now, half the time when using that same sequence, BI opens one of the cams to a full screen and doesn't delete. I then select any clip or camera and do it again and it works properly. Any ideas...

If they made the Amcrest cam I bought last year, that's enough reason to avoid them. In fact I bought two of the and both were junk and failed in a short time. Both went back to Amazon. A Foscam lasted about 30 days before the wifi stopped. A Pyle arrived unable to see the router SSID. An...

Finally got it back to around 30% CPU Guessing a Microsoft update I picked a Restore Point and rolled it back 5 days and it dropped to about 55%. Kept poking around and found that the hard-wired camera was also connecting via wireless. I simply munged the password to the router and am back where...

Restarted several times. Should be closed to newer version, just updated 3 months ago

Almost constantly, not spikes. Used to always be around 30%. Made no changes at all and no updates. Running 2 Hikvision DS-2CD2032F-IW bullets, one wireless, one hardwired. Both at 15fps Both with low 20 frame pre-trigger It's been working perfectly until yesterday afternoon Again, I've made...

Yep! Added the extractor (I didn't know I had) and it works great!

I think I get it. Gotta be 48VDC to power the cam POE? Explains why they sent me another cable unit with the different sex, for the camera end I guess.

If the camera is POE, why would I need an extractor at the camera? Doesn't the camera draw the 12VDC from the RJ-45 cable? I thought all I would need is an injector? I have the DS-2CD2032F-IW that is supposed to be POE but can't get it to work.
