    High CPU usage lately even when stoplight off

    Thanks Fender, I searched it but my issue is CPU usage increasing, not memory.

    High CPU usage lately even when stoplight off

    Hi, I was able to get my system to 14-17% consistently but the past day or two I've noticed it is 50-60% with 25-30% GPU (task manager says video decode). RAM usages used to be 3.2GB now its 4-4.1GB. I haven't changed anything and can't figure out why it's doing this. I even turned the...

    Blue Iris and IFTTT or Stringify

    Hi, is there a way for Blue Iris to receive inputs from IFTTT or Stringify so I can change profiles based on other home automations events? For example, I can have Stringify monitor new emails sorted by label in gmail. Because of this, I could have my Alarm.com send an email notification when...

    BI and Facial Recognition?

    Following. I love the idea of smarter recognition but would ideally like for it to be done locally.

    Geofence Radius in app not selectable

    Thanks. I can see how a regular user (my wife) could manipulate my profiles by changing around the geofencing location, but why should she have access to change the stop light or even manually set a profile? The app should report whether it’s in the geofence or not or just send the location to...

    Geofence Radius in app not selectable

    Hi, I have the BI app on my iphone X. When I'm logged in using an admin account, I can activate the geofence radius. But if I log in using an account that isn't an administrator, I can't select the radius. I don't always want to be logged in as an administrator on the app nor do I want my...

    Recommended POE switch for 9 cameras?

    Hi, I'm in the process of acquiring hardware for my setup. I have 9 POE 2K cameras. I notice a lot of the 16 port POE switches are only 8 POE ports. Is there one that meets my needs that I haven't seen on amazon? Should I get Managed or Unmanaged? Thank you! Happy Holidays!

    Which processor for my cam setup and BI?

    Thanks! I saw that and that's how I clued in on those two processors. However, I wanted some real world reports of what kind of reserve to expect based on CPU usage as a guide.

    Which processor for my cam setup and BI?

    I currently have 9 generic hikvision 4MP cams that I want to get set up on a BI computer instead/in addition to the NVR I currently have. If I want to change two of them to 8MP cams in the future, will an i5-7400 system be able to handle the current and future configurations? Thanks! I'm also...

    Using BI in combination with NVR?

    I currently have 9 4MP cams. If I want to change two of them to 8MP cams in the future, will an i5-7400 system be able to handle the current and future configurations? Thanks! I'm also considering an i7-7700 system to future proof but if the i5-7400 is plenty then maybe that'll do.

    Always-on recording with trigger notations

    Hi, I'm still researching a replacement/supplement to my NVR that has the dumbest triggers. I currently have it recording 24/7 because it misses so much stuff or pretty much records everything anyway. With BI, can I keep the 24/7 recording and still have triggers for notifications/clips? Or...

    Using BI in combination with NVR?

    Thanks! I've seen the IP settings in the NVR. However, I've never had to connect to the cams directly. I suppose I could since they are connected to the NVR and the NVR is on the network. Not really familiar with how IP cams worked. Initially, I thought they were only accessible via the NVR...

    Using BI in combination with NVR?

    That is a great idea. So I would connect all the cams to a switch which also connects to the BI PC. But how to I connect it to the NVR? The NVR has its own POE switch built in.

    Using BI in combination with NVR?

    Hi, I'm trying to search how to get better notifications and event triggering. My NVR (generic Hikvision) is pretty dumb. I have generic Hikvision POE cams 4MP I think. 9 of them. I've set up my NVR to give me email notifications but they are pretty useless. Video review is pretty useless...
