    Camera Alarm Output (Dahua TIOC) - what voltage level ?

    It's sometimes difficult to tell from the manufacturer datasheets. It could be that the alarm output is simply a set of relay contacts with no power supplied from the camera (dry contacts). If this is the case, the alarm circuit would have to be externally powered. I'm sure the contacts would be...

    Multiple Servers - Different Colors

    I monitor two different locations using the Blue Iris app on my iPhone. When I get an alert on my phone, it is readily apparent which location it is associated with because the server name is embedded in the alert text.

    Error: CodeProject.AI Server service is not a valid Win32 application

    I fixed the problem by opening the registry editor and navigating to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\CodeProject.AI Server I modified the ImagePath by adding quotes to the string. Specifically, I changed the ImagePath from this C:\Program...

    Error: CodeProject.AI Server service is not a valid Win32 application

    Thanks. I am not sure which path you are referring to. CodeProject.AI.Server.exe was installed at C:\Program Files\CodeProject\AI\Server. I'm not sure that's what you are asking, though.

    Error: CodeProject.AI Server service is not a valid Win32 application

    Any ideas on how to solve this problem? I have installed the CodeProject AI Server on a Windows 10 PC and intend to use it with Blue Iris, but the CodeProject.AI Server service will not start. The Windows system event log showed the error below... The CodeProject.AI Server service failed to...

    Bit Rate

    Well, Spiff. That one takes the cake. I'm still chuckling. There should be an acronym for "bewildered silent blink response" (BSBR), but it would probably never catch on unless you could somehow attach that clip to it. Too good!!

    Camera has power but no signal

    For reference, the RJ45 connectors that gave me trouble were these: Cat6A Extra Large Pass Through RJ45 Connectors | Unshielded I think the problem may have been associated with tolerances in the staggered design. The technical representative at True Cable was aware of the problem and...

    Camera has power but no signal

    I had trouble with some Cat6A RJ45 passthrough connectors from Tru Cable. There was a manufacturing problem with tolerances in the connector that was resulting in intermittent shorting. Tru Cable ended up sending me some standard Cat6 passthrough connectors that worked perfectly. You might want...

    IPCT-NITECOLOR-DM2 (DS-2CD2347G1-L) LED control

    I haven't configured one of the Nightcolor cams, but I don't think Smart Supplement Light is the setting you are looking for. Check to see if you have a setting to enable the light under Maintenance/System Service or something like that. For IR LEDs that's where the Enable IR Light setting is...

    Blue Iris Clip Playback Frame by Frame

    Ok, after playing around with the playback buttons for awhile, I think I now understand the intent of the first dot on either side of the pause bars. I was trying to just click the dot once expecting to advance one frame with each mouse click. I think the intended use of these dots is to click...

    Blue Iris Clip Playback Frame by Frame

    Thanks! My camera has an FPS and iframe of 6. I would expect the clip to advance 1/6 of a second each time I click the dot with a new frame displayed after each click. That isn't what is happening. I must click 5 times before I see a new frame. I'll have to check, but I don't think the time is...

    Blue Iris Clip Playback Frame by Frame

    Yes, I had already found that in the help file. It actually takes about 5 mouse clicks to advance 1 frame. I thought maybe there was a way to advance 1 frame each mouse click. It is especially annoying when you are dealing with the lag of working remotely using Teamviewer. Interestingly, the...

    Blue Iris Clip Playback Frame by Frame

    I am currently running Blue Iris 5.3.7.4. I have been searching for a way to playback a recorded clip frame by frame. It used to be possible to advance or reverse frame by frame with each click of the mouse button. I have figured out that I can advance frame by frame by clicking a little to the...
