    Best Blue Iris setting for less false alerts due to windy cloud shadows?

    I'll add my name to the list of "just dealing with it". I am now continuously recording but have hundreds of false alarms from palm tree shadows. I have tried using the crossing zones and tweaked/tested for hours. Problem with palm fronds is they have giant swings that can travel from frame...

    Continuous Record Loses 10 minutes

    Hey all: I have two cameras that record continuously and have found that they both lose 10 minutes from midnight to 12:10am. I have them Cut/Record for 12 hours and file size is 25G. Any thoughts?

    I changed my storage of clips from C: to H:

    You'll need to move or copy them from your folder on C to H. Most likely they are in the NEW folder on C. I'm assuming you have the same now in H

    Motion detection query

    Try changing "show rectangles" instead of "highlight motion" and have someone walk through the frame. You should see green rectangles showing motion. When the rectangle turns red, it will record. If the rectangles don't turn red, tweak the settings for Make, Size & Contrast as needed.

    Motion detection query

    Make sure your zone you want to record is green. Your settings for contrast and size should set it off. Set "show rectangles" and see if rectangles turn red. Slow computer will studded video but shouldn't affect motion ability with one camera.

    Anyone solve palm tree shadows?

    Agree regarding being a burden and rendering the alert process useless. That's a big plus for the BI software and now can't really use the feature.

    Anyone solve palm tree shadows?

    yea, I guess I was just spoiled before when cancel shadows (Gaussian) worked well. So be it for now I guess until a future update?

    Anyone solve palm tree shadows?

    Have the cameras set to continuously record now because I'm afraid will miss something. Not good

    Anyone solve palm tree shadows?

    I have two palm trees on my divider between the street and sidewalk that throw wicked shadows that move across the sidewalk at different angles throughout the day. I need to record anyone walking on the sidewalk in front of my property and the alerts are mostly shadows. BI used to work well with...

    Seems to have settled to around 60% now after being in the 90s for hours. I'll update if it reoccurs. Thanks!

    Adding to a cpu issue for this version. I have 2 of my cams on continuous record and cpu was previously around 50%. Cpu after updates is now around 90%-95%
