The cameras are all on a ipcampower switch. THis feeds a core ubiquiti switch that goes to a IDF switch where the BI server is. it never passes through the FW and is all hardwired. I ran a ping test for a couple hours using the ping tool from colasoft and had no packet drops. In fairness I do...

very sporadically. it has actually behaved itself for the last few weeks. I just cannot find a pattern.

Well the buffer on the offending camera was half the other two. The offending was at 6mb and other two were at 15mb. So I raised it to match the others. If this does not work, I will drop the camera and add it back in just a next step. Lets see.......

Lowered camera to 15FPS. Delay happened again. Have a little more detail on how the symptom develops. What I am about to describe is how it is recorded. The first time is the playback timeline value, the second is the camera value. at 13:35:47 the camera timer value freezes. at 13:36:15...

I lowered the FPS last night but as state, so I will wait and see. Unfortunately this does not happen immediately so each change could be days in between. I will keep an eye out on a daily basis for variance building. As of this morning, everything normal. Thanks for the comments and...

I could it just does not track to the issue. A bad crimp would caused packet drops. Data is destroyed in these cases. This is being buffered somewhere. does anyone know if BI creates a process per camera to record? Thinking way out of the box here

Its not a time stamp issue. I can track a person around the house. Did an experiment and had my wife walk around. So lets say there are 3 cams in line with some overlap on the linear path. Cam 1 picks up somebody walking, as the person progresses you would expect to leave the view of cam 1...

cameras are on PoE switch. gig link to core switch. Server on core.

I eluded in another post of some delay issues that I am having and did not want to add this to that thread. But as I was working on the problem listed on that post, I have more data on my second issue. I have a 12 camera setup as follows. A single camera will display and record with a 90s...

I am not sure the source of this issue but I thought I would start here. System has been installed for just under a year. 2 weeks ago, boot drive on PC started to randomly fail. As it was an old machine and still running BI4, figured I would pick up upgraded box and launch with BI5. New (...

ok been playing and now on item one above (quality on monitor) and I now understand Fenderman's second instruction about the PZT control. It is on the client not the server. Duh. I had the screen in full screen so did not see the controls. I can adjust up to 4k. So when I cycle full...

OK that would make sense. Now let me ask a follow-on question. I have a 15TB NAS box for other purposes. Not that I am going to but if I leave NEW at 3600gb so most of the clips are local and move overage to my NAS to reach a longer storage time is there any detriment other than if I pull some...

Thanks Southern Yankee - Just replied to Fenderman with most of the above. The clip storage is showing for D:/ 103G of 3.63T used and New, Stored is 97.3G used of 2.92T. Now I just recently changed the values so lets see. Are changes dynamic/automatic or do I need to restart the Service?

Thanks Fenderman - 1: I found the "limit bitrate" in the webserver/advanced/encoder options and removed limit bitrate but I am a little confused on the second part. The only PZT controls I am aware of is in the individual camera settings. The tab left of PZT/Controls is Schedule but I do not...

Hello all, a couple of weeks ago finally installed a 13 camera Dahua system I picked up from Andy with a BI server made from a spare Win 10 i7 box I had around. Most everything is great. The system is settled in at around 50% CPU load . The system is up and running, recording, etc. Now I am...
