    Oh. Shouldn’t it have been confirmed and not cancelled?

    Hell Yeah! Direct Deepstack Integration - 5.4.0 - March 31, 2021

    Guess what guys, I realised I already have an old TP-LINK TL-SG1008D 8 port gigabit switch that an IT consultant gave me way back. It doesn’t have PoE so I hadn’t used it. To prove all gigabit switches auto negotiate the speed, I plugged my 100Mbit PoE switches into this one and hey presto...

    OK sebastiantombs, thanks for the reply. It would seem to me to be very do-able - you write the data from each camera port into a registers at 100Mbit and then read them sequentially at 1000Mbit for the upstream port. I wonder if some switches are clever enough to do that by detecting the...

    Oh dear, sebastiantombs and Edcfish, will I ever get to the bottom of this one? Firstly, please believe me when I say that it’s easy to understand that the data from all the camera ports in a switch must add arithmetically not to lose data in the upstream port. However, RevJoe’s advice to...

    Very useful feedback IAmATeaf to have 65% as a maximum target level. Many thanks for that. I still struggle, though, to understand the 1gbs advice from RevJoe and you. Are you saying that if you use a 1gbs switch connected to only to several 100gbs cameras (limiting the PC uplink speed to...

    Dear RevJoe, thanks again for the explanation, even though I may still be missing a key point. Following on from your suggestion and before sending my previous message I did look at the spec for several managed switches and as you have now clarified, I didn’t find rate conversion (100Mbit to...

    To jump back briefly to my system configuration with its saturated ethernet port, thank you RevJoe for prompting me to think more carefully about what I have and what I need. So I sketched out my system (including what I want) as you suggested. It's attached. The physical location of things...

    Thanks for the feedback guys. My network knowledge is extremely shallow to say the least but I imagine that solving my overloaded ethernet port by replacing my 100Mbit 16 port PoE+ switch with another one that has a 1 gigabit uplink would be far more expensive than offloading some of the...

    Thanks again for the feedback wittaj. I didn’t find a speed selection for my Intel Gigabit 4P i350-t adapter card and I imagine it would automatically operate at 1 Gigabit to match its partner. But my simple switches are 100Mbit/s in and out and I now see that one of the ports, although...

    Found the performance tab in task manager. Regardless of the 100% heading, looks like I can have 100Mbit/s on each ethernet port?. Just updated BI to latest and notice the memory shot up to nearly 100% and now PC has crashed. Restarted, same problem. Got rid of 5.4.5.0

    Hi wittaj, picture of DS setting for this camera. Either 1 or 2 additional motion captures sent to DS depending on camera. Picture of Task Manager via Remote Desktop, BI running as a service with local console active but no motion. I didn't capture it during the storm but I was surprised to...

    I've now added DeepStack to my 14 cameras. It's doing a fabulous job of removing all the false triggers - especially last night's stormy weather blowing everything that's growing, flickering shadows when the sun came out and all the reflections from the rain from the cams with built-in...

    Why no trigger event for this blatant motion?

    You’re supposed to only put planes down on their side. At school (a vast number of years ago) the woodwork teacher used the cane if we left them like that. Didn’t take me long to learn...

    How to setup Dahua IVS with BlueIris?

    Yes, my older Dahuas do that. Turn the sensitivity to “0” and threshold to “100”. These settings are remembered.

    5.4.4.0 update - new triggered+continuous record setting

    You’re right wittaj, a tremendous saving. However, according to Murphy’s Law (in the UK it’s often sod’s law), most of us record 24/7 because the very clip we want at top res happens to be the one that was missed. My 8TB is overwritten every 7 or 8 days, so an alternative that delivered say a...

    The ideal position for that front door camera

    Despite being a “mini” product, you may feel it’s far too big for the front door, but I’m still pleased with mine and use it to check for parcels left on the doorstep. Even though it’s 4MP, the low light optical sensitivity in colour is simply brilliant...

    5.4.1 - April 3, 2021 - Support for DeepStack facial recognition

    Despite not being up to date on DeepStack facial recognition, I think the fundamental flaw has already been pointed out - you choose a high resolution camera for a particular situation to identify a person based on its DORI performance and then use its substream having a 10x lower resolution for...

    Hikvision ColorVu + 4K (DS-2CD2087G2-L)

    Hi spammenotinoz, if your bitrate is still way too low even on the top setting, I’m sure ljw2k won’t mind me passing on to you the helpful info he sent to me that the way to fix it is to do a factory reset on the camera. So it’s a racing certainty it’s nothing to do with the firmware version...

    Hikvision ColorVu + 4K (DS-2CD2087G2-L)

    Extremely low bitrate - that was me. The iframe interval was also stuck at 100, ignoring the set value. It was caused by FW V5.5.160 build 201103. When I updated the FW to V5.5.160 build 210107 the camera now behaves normally. Now when on CBR, the bitrate reflects its setting. On VBR, the...

    Memory creeping on Intel Graphics 530

    I've had a memory creep today - first time ever. (not using graphics 530). Despite fenderman advising against, I update BI’s SW as soon as a newer version is released. I wonder if it's as a result of 5.4.3.1? CPU still very low though. Rebooted and now memory OK at the moment. Edit:- Come...

    Easy for me to check if there's a limit using a new generation DS-2CD2087G2-LU Hikvision. BI status window:- Camera:- But, four points:- 1. Saving in the camera is not enough. The camera "appears" OK but also needs a reboot or BI status shows garbage (maybe a FW bug in the camera) 2...

    Goodness gracious wittaj, I’m sorry to have prompted you into verbal diarrhoea! I see only now that our conversation on this point began because of my interpretation of you saying that fps and iframes should match. To me that’s ambiguous and I thought you meant that there should be as many...

    wittaj, in this instance, I'm afraid your mind is closed to the facts. As you say, understanding the key frame interval is important so let me prove it in two simple ways: 1. Read the Blue Iris help file 2. A practical method. Set one of your cameras once again to 15 fps and an iframe...

    Hello wittaj I‘ve only now discovered there’s a “deepstack” function and just roughly browsing this thread. I am always interested in reading your posts when I come across them but so far as I know, you have here a significant misconception. You are saying that the “key” in the BI Status...

    3" PT Hikvision DS-2DE3A400BW-DE(F1)(S5)

    I've just bought one of these to use at my front door. It's a replacement for an ancient Dahua turret - of the generation having a very poor focus when in B&W. So far I think I'll be please with it: 4MP, 1/1.8" giving a claimed unbelievably good low light performance of 0.0005 lux in colour...

    Change PTZ Presets based upon BI Motion Zones?

    wittaj, many thanks for trying so hard to assist. Override Motion Zones are already unchecked for both preset positions in the PTZ - the identical motion trigger settings are fine for both presets. One more go. There are two trigger sources for the PTZ:- 1. object detection in spotter...
