    Wifi range extender (poe)?

    @tangent The router I think was ~$120, maybe a little less. I'm not sure I need anything more than an access point and so maybe I should compare cost. If you are familiar with them, is ~$120 more or less than you'd expect to pay for a decent AP? I'm guessing more, considering it is a router and...

    Wifi range extender (poe)?

    Thanks guys. Fenderman - guess I should have looked into that a bit more. I saw it advertised when I bought the router but figured it was some gimmicky thing. I'll check out the links, appreciate it!

    Wifi range extender (poe)?

    Hey there - This isn't at all related to BI or my security camera system. I'm not planning on adding any wifi cameras. Currently I'm using this TP-Link RE210 wifi range extender in my house which has worked alright, but I'm wondering if I can't do better now that I have the ability to run my...

    Anti Virus Recommendations? (not Norton)

    Don't really want to get involved with the political side of this thread - please don't assume that means I'm against you guys & NRA... I just wanted to chime in and say that I've been using Bitdefender for the last few years and have been very happy with it. You can usually find a decent deal...

    Build my computer for me :)

    Weird... can you hide menu items? I see "Wiki" between Members and What's New? I'm also using the light theme, maybe it is an issue with the dark theme? (edit) confirmed - no Wiki link with the dark theme enabled.

    CPU usage creeping up slowly

    Just a quick FYI that I was indeed suffering from this Intel Driver problem. In the evening I'd be at around 85-90% usage. I stopped auto updates of drivers and installed 4664 and so far I'm on a day+ with ~20% cpu usage.

    CPU usage creeping up slowly

    Just this morning I checked on my BI system before heading to work and I noticed my cpu usage was pretty high (~90%). I did some poking around and noticed that one or two of my three cameras was reporting only 2-3 fps. A quick reset of these cameras got the fps back up around 19 (expected) and...

    Would appreciate a quick primer for Dahua settings please

    I'm curious - in the Dahua settings the two types of cameras I have were both automatically set to reboot/reset on a daily basis. Is this needed? Do most disable this? Thanks

    Continuous recording while also showing alerts?

    @srg775 Did you move your folders around? Could it be that your db is pointing at an old location for 'New" and that your recently changed it? If so, you can copy your images and video to the new 'New' folder and it should work. Also, you might try watching these videos - shed a lot of light on...

    Continuous recording while also showing alerts?

    Fenderman was right, not surprisingly :) - on your record tab, try 'Create alert list images when triggered'. I also use 'JPEG snapshot each - only when triggered' and 'Include JPEGs on 'All clips' & timelines' as well. Try that first one and go walk in front of your camera.

    Continuous recording while also showing alerts?

    @srg775 probably need to see what is setup in the 'Configure...' button. Also, Alerts tab?

    4.6.9 - January 31, 2018 H.265 hardware decoding added

    Out of curiosity, how are you viewing your CPU usage? I just setup a 'new' system for BI (i5 6400, 8gb ram) and if I am remoted into the system with the BI admin interface open my CPU usages hovers around 50%. However, if I'm not remoted in, not in the admin console and viewing the system usage...

    Asus RT-AC68 router OpenVPN setup

    That's interesting - I pretty much feel the complete opposite. I came from a tp-link router which, while decent, seemed a little flaky at times. The ac-68u was a breeze to setup and it's been rock solid for a few months now. I know about Merlin but have yet to go down that path as the standard...

    Would appreciate a quick primer for Dahua settings please

    Ok, continuing to search and find bits of info... hopefully someone can confirm this. If you choose a manual, customized exposure range Shutter 0 ~ 10 (ms) should equal 1/100 or faster?

    Would appreciate a quick primer for Dahua settings please

    Hi there - rather than make a new thread I figured my question would go perfectly in here. I've searched the forums some and even read some Dahua documentation, but I'm not finding what I'm looking for... Or i'm not finding it in terms my dummy brain can process right now. The problem I have is...
