    Need Help Finding A Powerful Tower PC For Blue Iris

    What about SSD. Is it worth the extra money or is it not so beneficial? I'm also finding a lot of PCs with both. A small SSD and a large HDD. Is there any benefit to this setup or is it better to choose one type of drive?

    Need Help Finding A Powerful Tower PC For Blue Iris

    I have no PC knowledge and would like to buy a already built PC to run Blue Iris on. I have 4 1080p cams that I run at 30fps and my current PC CPU is in the high 90s. I want to add 6 more cameras with the same settings. Is there a reasonably priced PC that can run 10 cameras at 1080p 30fps?

    I received the BV-Tech 6 Port PoE+ Switch today and it does power the camera. Also at $40 it is the cheapest and only option found so far. Thanks @bp2008.

    Andy got back with me and said he checked the lenses before he shipped. He said it is most likely condensation. Maybe it is. I will give it some time and see what happens.

    I Live In America Should My Camera Be NTSC

    What about fps. I read somewhere on here that your fps should be divisible by your native resolution or something like that. NTSC 60/PAL 50. My current cameras were on 30fps because it can be divided into 60. I know I could have choose 20, 15, etc but I choose 30. Now with PAL should I not go...

    Internet Explorer. I don't know what plug-in. When I log into the camera and go to live there is no video. The screen is black and in the center of the black screen it tells me to click for plug-in but I still don't get video. If I use the Dahua camera finder I can see an image there.
