I've been researching this issue for nearly a week and I haven't made any significant progress on fixing this issue. I have several Amcrest IP4M-1051b PTZ cameras around the house including an old IPM-HX1B. The cameras stream and record just fine in Blue Iris. However, I'm getting absolutely...
Interesting. The whole point of this camera was the 30fps. I know everyone say it's not necessary. Honestly I just like looking at video in 30fps. If lowering the FPS makes the night video more stable then I'm all for it. I did drop it to 25fps. What's funny is that I'm a youtuber and actually...
There are a few models but it's a mixture of these:
1x - Amcrest IP8M-T2499EW-28MM
1x - Amcrest IP8M-2696EW-AI (the camera I'm referring to)
4x - Amcrest IP8M-2496EB
1x - WyzeCam v2
1x - Amcrest IPM-HX1B
The highest resolution in the sub-stream dropdown menu is 480p.
It is very likely that my...
I suppose the better question is whether or not I'm actually saving any storage space by doing it this way. I'm still doing some calculations with the file sizes to see if it's even worth it.
Yes that's what Im trying to do. This is how I have it set up currently. The camera (4k amcrest/dahua) doesn't have a 1080p sub-stream option in the camera itself. The highest sub-stream quality is 704 x 480.

After removing the sub-stream it appears to be working properly. I was able to downscale to 1080p with a quality of 50% and it's fine.
Apparently the continuous recordings from the cloned camera were recording from the sub-stream for some strange reason. That explains the 480p quality no...
The video quality in the camera is set to 3840x2160. Is there no way to re-encode at a lower different resolution AND a higher resolution? I want both.
First I'll explain my issue when I'll explain what I'm trying to accomplish overall. I love this software and I assume I'm doing something wrong.
MY ISSUE
My issue is that when I attempt to change the "Video file format and compression" settings I get low quality video (looks like ~480p) no...
