    is it necassary to use Surveillance HDD vs the standard desktop drive?

    dont use regular drives, i was getting roughly a year out of them before they died (standard seagate consumer drives, went through 3 of them). moved on to reds last feb, so far so good. im using BI and recording 24/7 so they are constantly writing. +1 on the greens, nothing but issues with...

    qos

    still playing with this, vlan's have proven more complicated than i though to set up in pfsense. i went back to anaylizing my packets, and the cameras generate a little over 3300 packets a second. one of the camera periodically throws off a tcp error as well. either the sheer number of...

    How to add a siren to Blue Iris

    im in the process of doing of rigging door sensors to trigger BI with a raspberry pi. seems fairly straight forward (provided your ok with python and linux), but still waiting on a few resistors to show up in the mail before i can finish the project. BI allows for IO from an arduino connected...

    actually i am running pfsense, internet speed shouldnt be an issue as this is all lan traffic. i only have a 1 up 15 down mbit connection. internet modem --> pfsense box --> cisco sg200-26 --> main pc (with BI and shared drives) all my htpcs and cameras plug in directly to the cisco...

    qos

    the connection definitely not saturated, but i have a shared drive that I use for my HTPCs on the same computer as BI. The HTPCs have issues streaming off the computer when BI is running. My solution use to be to use intel nic teaming, which fixed the problem, but the latest big win10 update...

    Triggering BI camera to record with HTTP commands, works with VERA

    answered my own question, i needed to uncheck secure login to allow the plain text login from the url. would be nice to keep secure login for non lan connections but i don't see that option.

    Recommendations for pulling CAT6e wires in an existing home.. DIY or hire someone?

    Re: Recommendations for pulling CAT6e wires in an existing home.. DIY or hire someone totally agree, even when you think you've ran plenty, you need more! I try and make sure its easy to pull more later, and in the hard spots will pull a rope in with the cable so next time its super easy to...

    12V power through Cat5e?

    i use those too, running 75' with 12v and data using them for a camera (no ir on it though, so the draw is probably lower). have shorter runs that are powering ir cameras too.

    Need help finding hardwired system

    for blueiris? no, its per computer. i think you can run up to 99 cameras on a single license.

    Need help finding hardwired system

    blueiris would be a good pick. the hikvision cameras have their own software too but I don't have any experience with that.

    Compatible USB BNC capture card

    its been a while since i ran it, but i think i was around 3-4fps with all 4 channels running at 740x480. the less channels you use or if you use lower resolution, the higher the fps you can get out of it. its old tech, but it it works well like most axis gear. a couple have use this with...

    Compatible USB BNC capture card

    You could use an analog to ip converter. I used an axis 2400+ but have since transition to all ip. I was actually just going to list it on eBay of you decide to go that route.

    DDNS - DynDNS vs No-IP

    i was tired of the no-ip monthly nags to confirm for my free account, moved over to afraid and haven't had to confirm ever once it was setup in my router. if your already running blueiris, it also supports a free ddns forwarder.

    Secure access to a Dahua PTZ without a VPN

    change the camera to be on a non standard port and then use a really long password. if your always accessing from the same network/device, you could screen the ips that are allowed to access the camera.

    Replacing stock cooling with aftermarket cooling

    yea, its been a few years since i have looked at them. i always wanted to do a full system as that's where i saw the real advantage (eliminate all the fans by having both the gpu and cpu water cooled), but the price on the gpu water blocks always put me off.

    Replacing stock cooling with aftermarket cooling

    im running a Noctua NH-U14S, expensive, but performs well, near silent and none of the worries associated with water cooling. the lower end sealed water units in general don't seem to perform well in reviews (in terms of noise or outperforming air units)

    SD Cards Longevity question

    Ive had good luck with sandisk ultra and extreme cards. i have had a sandisk regular one fail on me, and a PNY. both failures were likely due to high volumes of writes from being in a dashcam. the pny didnt last very long at all though. both gave me warranty replacements though with no...

    high cpu usage

    depends on your encoding settings for BI when your not using d2d. Could be bigger, could be smaller. Hard drives are so cheap now adays its not really an issue anyway. Regardless of of file size, your loosing quality on the video file by re-encoding. Again, depending on your settings this...

    Do I really need a WD Purple HDD?

    the system can still go flaky even though its not the os drive that goes. easy enough to fix, but took me a few hard drive failures to figure out the pattern of how they failed!

    Do I really need a WD Purple HDD?

    I record 24/7 so my scenario is a little different. Given a consume drive was failing me roughly every 18 months I went to wd reds and so far so good. They would just fail either, they would make the computer go unstable forna while before they completely failed and it was always a hassle to...

    Rasberry Pi - running BI anyone?

    have you tried putting your phone onto your local network and using the local ip for your BI machine? not sure how parallels handels network interfaces but there may be something there as well. i know in virtualbox you can set your VM to pull a new ip so that your VM and base OS don't share...

    Cant Connect UNIFI POE Cam(s) to BI

    I haven't tried, but BI should be able to pull jpgs directly from the camera.

    network usage

    thanks, but intel released new drivers, so im back to bridging the connection for now, seems to be wokring like normal again. it should of worked the other way too, not sure why blueiris is creating that issue.
