    I am on t-mobile, wondering if there is something going on with them after their issues last week.

    push notifications working intermittently

    This is a new system that I set up at my mom's house. I double checked all settings against my old system that worked since BI v2. It all looks the same other than I have multiple profiles on my old system vs one on the new system. The logs show that push notifications are being sent to my...

    Can't add second BI server to android app

    once I got it to stay lit up on the add new server, I could then edit. Kind of a funky way of doing it. Thanks You have to scroll until it is highlighted then you can edit/connect

    Can't add second BI server to android app

    That is what I did. The "add new server" lights up when I tap it, but nothing else. I have been using this for over 2 years on this phone, not sure if something from a previous version is preventing it. I even tried to export the existing server and add the new one to the file and import it...

    Can't add second BI server to android app

    I get the option to "add new server" but it does not do anything. I have updated the app to the latest and still don't get the option to add the details. Am I missing something stupid?

    New install suggestions for low light area

    Ooooh, will have to look into that. thanks Any suggestions for making it work correctly? Will it only record ONVIF events or all normal event triggers including BI?

    New install suggestions for low light area

    I picked up a couple of iPC-T5442TM-AS to start. The first one was installed last night. I might have to replace my Hikvisions at my house now. Below are some pics I grabbed last night with default settings. IR turned off, it is so dark you can't see where to walk at night in that area. IR...

    New BI build

    I prefer the BI timestamp, so there is that ;-) BVR is the extension to use as you can review while it is recording. Other formats have size limits, not sure about the BVR, but you can specify the length of the clip.

    New BI build

    I had thought so as well, but all the pros on here use it . If you want a timestamp in your video, it can be added when you export from BI.

    New BI build

    I rebuilt my 3770k and I am using direct to disk recording and only have 1 old 1.3MP cam on it now. That is at idle. I forgot to remove half the RAM, so it still has 32GB in it. I have 3 SSD in my mom's new system. One for OS and APPS, 1 for new recordings and 1 for clip storage. On my new...

    New BI build

    I had the option of buying 2x i7 9700 for my mom and me or repurpose the 3770 for her smaller need and give mine a big boost. It is my primary desktop so the extra horsepower comes in handy. The price for 2 vs the 1 I built was about the same at $1500. I will also be doing some video editing for...

    New BI build

    the 3770k did handle them without anything else running at around 50% probably. The mobo had old intel graphics and the GPU was a 550ti. Neither could offload anything from the CPU. If I had a couple of cameras triggered it would spike to 100%. That made is useless for anything else, not to...

    New BI build

    I was running on an old i7 3770k for my desktop and BI systems. I finally got around and upgraded due to BI eating up 60%+ CPU on the old one. The new build is Ryzen 9 3900x GTX 1660 Super 6GB MSI MPG X570 mobo 32GB RAM 1TB NVME Gen4 x4 This thing doesn't even notice BI is running, it hit 14%...

    New install suggestions for low light area

    I am considering this to cover the back of the house near a basement door. What do you guys think about the IPC-HDBW4231F-E2-M? I have used minidomes on my house by my front and rear doors. They are less obvious and do a good job, even though mine are older HIK.

    New install suggestions for low light area

    I ordered 2 of the iPC-T5442TM-AS 2.8mm to start. I have a DS-2CD3332-I and 3 older HIK 720p bullets I can use to provide some IR and additional coverage while I figure out what to use and where. I pulled 6 CAT6 cables yesterday to the front and side of her house.

    Which Dahua cameras have car/human detection capabilities? Don't need super high-end LPR cameras though.

    New install suggestions for low light area

    Any thoughts about using the AI for in camera alerts via email/text and BI to record? I get too many false positives with BI.

    New install suggestions for low light area

    After some thinking. My mom is 83 and is not technical so I will need to monitor and manage this from remote. I am thinking the AI built into the cameras may make more sense. I can have the cameras notify me (and her after tweaking) on movement. I will have BlueIris record all clips at her...

    New install suggestions for low light area

    I have narrowed it down to the following. IPC-T2231T-ZS IPC-T5442TM-AS Is the difference between the 2 models that drastic? Will I be disappointed with the 2MP?

    New install suggestions for low light area

    Thanks for the info. I am leaning towards the IPC-T2231T-ZS. The bang for the buck looks good. I may use some outdoor lighting to help with low light issues. The varifocal will help target areas better as well. Although the IPC-T5442TM-AS and IPC-T5442TM-AS-LED are tempting.

    I am looking for cameras for my elderly mom's house. I have mostly older Hikvisions, but want to get her newer starlight dahua cameras. I would prefer turrets over dome or bullet for all of the cameras. One of the cameras will be mounted on a wall with weather exposure, so need to make sure I...

    BI stopped working after OS upgrade and SSD swap

    I finally got around to upgrading the OS on my BI system and put in a larger newer SSD. The migration to the new SSD went fine. After upgrading to Windows 10, BI no longer recognizes its license. I tried to insert the latest license I had for version 4, and it wouldn't take it. Is there a...

    lost my allen wrench for hikvision ds-2cd2732f-is

    A T20 tamper resistant torx did the job :) I only had to look under my desk to find it, wasted several hours looking for the original box.
