    Indoor Cameras

    Hi all, Neighbor got robbed recently and he knows I'm a camera fanatic. He asked for advice on cameras, but he is primarily looking for indoor cameras since he has a bunch of outside cameras already (he only needs 1 or 2 more outdoor cameras covering trails to his house). I'm a bit worried...

    Suggestions for indoor wifi cameras with Blue Iris for occasional use when traveling

    That’s a good point…I don’t have one there and that’s why I’m having a hard time choosing. May go back to 841 now lol

    Alarm.com Cameras

    Hi, All the Ethernet cables go directly into the nvr. He has an 8 channel NVR. My question is, he only wants to add 1-3 cameras….can he use a Poe splitter to do this even those it’s only 8 channel NVR? Will the nvr allow it to pick up more than 8 cameras? Thanks!

    Would you go with 841 over 1041 if you had the choice these days?

    Suggestions for indoor wifi cameras with Blue Iris for occasional use when traveling

    Why the 2mp over 4mp? Is it because break ins occur mostly at night with lights off so day time we don’t care that much about?

    PTZ5A4M-25X Ultra Smart 4MP 1/1.8" CMOS Starlight 25x Optical Zoom POE+ IP PTZ Camera Support Auto Tracking 3.0 and IVS is an OWL???

    For the longest time I thought there was an owl in my neighborhood. Until recently did I discover this "whooooo" noises is driven by my PTZ camera moving to a different preset. Its mounted to my house and the attic amplifies the noises.... Is this normal? Is there any way to dampen this noise -...

    Alarm.com Cameras

    Ethernet. So that would mean they are IP? I think I’m answering my own questions. I wonder if alarms has any proprietary blockers from connecting with blue iris …most likely not

    Alarm.com Cameras

    I see, I will need to check. It has an interface on a dvr and can be accessed through a phone app. It’s my neighbors system and I’m trying to help him update his software and add new cameras. How would I go about checking if I can access through a web browser? I assume plug them into some...

    Alarm.com Cameras

    Hi, does anyone know if alarms.com cameras will work with blue iris software? I want to add new cameras but don't want to be tied to their systems. So if i can use their cameras and setup blue iris that would be ideal instead of replacing all the cameras installed by alarms.com.

    Why the Lag?

    gotcha, i just checked those settings and they already at default like yours. heres some more settings. My computer runs at like 1% cpu so not sure why this issue. I do have a clone but not sure why that would impact it.

    Why the Lag?

    Hi, Would anyone have an idea of why I am experiencing lag on my T5442T-ZE? I've done all the blue iris optimizations. See my video setup below too. IPC-T5442T-ZE

    Storage - How much free space?

    What are you thoughts, wittaj? I also found these settings....does the scaling look right?

    Storage - How much free space?

    No, that's not checked. I can't see anything in my settings that seems odd - see attached screenshots. I looked at my task manager to see there is also a blue iris service that runs at around 5-10% cpu.

    Storage - How much free space?

    Yea, 3 weeks would be perfect...maybe should have bought 10TB. Do you turn off your substreams in the camera gui?

    Storage - How much free space?

    Ok, I’ve been able to allocate an additional 700 GB to my new folder and lowered my alerts to 2 GB. With this storage I can record 2-3 weeks continuously on mainstreams and probably 6-7 weeks on substreams. So I decided to switch my 9 cameras( all of them are 4mp) to record continuously in...

    BIG Owl on my Trail

    I live in RPV! I thought the scenery looked a lot like home…what neighborhood are you in? Also, do you have your triggers on motion sensor? Do you get a lot of false triggers? Thanks.

    Storage - How much free space?

    Thanks, Tony. I read that link and Ive formatted my disk now and also created subfolders for each camera. I previously had have 6TB dedicated to the new folder and 500GB to alerts. I think 500GB is too much for alerts. How much do you typically allocate for alerts? My alerts folder currently has...

    Storage - How much free space?

    How much free space are you leaving? I have about 15% free space (1TB). Is that too much? I also don't understand how blue iris distinguishes between "allocated free space" and "extra free space"? See below.

    Image Format Size? Anamorphic?

    Yea haha....i just got bored. I also updated both CodeProject AI and Blue Iris to the latest versions like a madman. Everything still works suprisingly.....although Blue Iris running as a service is using higher CPU than before. Running as a service it's now at around 10-15% CPU, whereas...

    What do you set the size in blue iris?

    Image Format Size? Anamorphic?

    Hi All, What do you set your image format size to? Should this match my cameras resolution in their GUI? I unchecked forced anamorphic, and then the camera resets with the 848 X 480 image format, which isnt the resolution. I have 4MP dahua cameras by the way and run substreams. Thanks,
