    "Sorry, The file could not be found" when trying to view clips/alerts

    Got it, I cannot access any of those recording made during that period. My recordings that were affected were being made to 4TB internal 3.5 drive connected via SATA.

    "Sorry, The file could not be found" when trying to view clips/alerts

    I encountered a similar issue after upgrading to 5.0.8.2. It went away after upgrading to 5.0.9.0, rebooting the computer and rebuilding the database. Not all of those may be needed but it is what I did. All of the recordings from the time I upgraded to 5.0.8.2 until the update to 5.0.9.0 are...

    Trigger Area Question

    IN Camera Properties on the Trigger tab, configuring motion detection. It appears the blue square does not cover the whole image. Why might it be doings this ?

    5.0.3 - New Edge Vector Motion Algorithm

    Just to experiment with the edge vector. I had a couple spider web strands in front of one camera and was getting about 50 alerts a night due to the web moving. I tried edge vector and it jumped up to over 600 alerts last night. Just because of the level of snark here, the camera is about 250...

    Blue Iris Update Page

    Is it just me or does the Blue Iris update page just forward you to the main page now? My bookmark and the link on the download page do not resolve but it appears the toolbar does. Home - Blue Iris Software

    Blue Iris Continuous Recording Producing huge files

    Something I have noticed over the years is that my Blue Iris recordings are larger when there is a lot of movement. Windy days with the tree branch shadows moving around have much larger files compared to normal days. I am using direct 2 disc and the blue iris dvr format. ON one hand I...

    New build for 4K cameras. i9-9900K?

    IMHO I would not use RAID5. RAID5 is great for READING but sucks at WRITING and for storing video, you will be doing a LOT of writing. Even with a Super Powered RAID card, writing 600-1200MP/s to a RAID5 is going to hurt. That is assuming you are using a dedicated Tier 1 RAID card, if you are...

    I unauthorized my BI4 system Exported the registry settings Installed a new Win10 Install Installed BI 5 Imported Registry settings. Everything seems to be working so far. I had to change a drive letter and I lost the database of alerts but kept all of the old videos. So far it appears to be...

    New Machine for BI5

    I was mainly asking about Hardware encoding as I had no experience with it, I can handle the other items, sorry for not emphasizing it. For what its worth, I moved this system over to Win10 and I have the Intel builtin GPU and an Nvidia 1650 that I got on sale. After installing BI5 and...

    New Machine for BI5

    My current BI machine is running Server 2008R2 and has worked fine for a while. With BI5 coming out, I am going to build a new box with Win10. I would like to try the hardware acceleration which I have not really been able to use. What is the current status? Does it work with Cuda? Should I put...

    4.8.5 - BIG NEWS No movement trigger and New AI integration/update

    I have gotten some false positives, not many, about 7 out of 800 so far. This is the latest one. Thinks the front seat of the car is a human. Unless someone is hiding in the back seat...

    4.8.5 - BIG NEWS No movement trigger and New AI integration/update

    Most of them do not have the blue highlighting but some do have the highlighting in contact with the human. I am confused though as the demo is showing the system detect a human with just hands coming through a door. Can the system detect a human with just a portion of a body or not? edit to...

    4.8.5 - BIG NEWS No movement trigger and New AI integration/update

    Even though I am not crazy about the cloud functionality, I wanted to give it a fair test. I used images from four different Hikvision cameras taken through Blue Iris and sent about 100 images from each camera through the system. A false positive is an image that came back as containing a human...

    4.8.5 - BIG NEWS No movement trigger and New AI integration/update

    So Blue Iris still has to detect something and become triggered. The image taken after the trigger is emailed to a Cloud system and they then process it and text me if it is human or not. I got excited at first but now not so much.

    Blue Iris UI3

    FWIW, in the Bitdefender GUI, under protection and online threat prevention, I added the URL of my Blue Iris server to the exceptions list and so far it appears to have reduced the problem. I can now view H264 stream at 720P but the everythign "seems slower". Under stats for nerds I am seeing a...

    Blue Iris UI3

    Another one for the Bitdefender just upgraded to 2019 and now high def streaming in firefox no longer works. If I change the quality to jpeg it will work. Just to be clear I made the about:config changes a long time ago and I was happily using 720P until the last few days.

    Zones and Alerts

    After reading through the help file, I am still a little confused about what I am seeing with my zone experimentation. On one camera I setup two zones, just split the view vertically right down the middle with Zone A on the left and Zone B on the right. On the alerts tab, zones a and B are...

    Hikvision Firmware Question

    I have learned quite a bit reading this forum. One example is that some of the Hikvision cameras I purchased on Amazon had a non-chinese serial number on the box but when turn it on and go to the web interface the serial number has the CCCH in the middle of it. My main reason for upgrading...

    Confused about all of these cameras. Which should I buy?

    I don't really have any issues with Hikvison domes under my eaves. I left the desiccant pack in each camera which takes care of any moisture issues that may occur. I spray the glass and clean with windex every few months or so. Dropping a screw was an issue when I installed them but I almost...

    4.6.0 - August 29, 2017

    I agree. Read this in your best Thurston Howell voice; When Lovey and I went up to the cabin in the spring after the snow melted. We found that our 100lb propane tank was missing. We went to our Blue Iris computer and went back over the January/February Alerts and quickly found the date/time...

    Necessary specs when doing continuous recording

    Yes motion detection on all of the cameras as well as recording 24x7. Most of the cameras are Hikvision 2132/2142 so they are 1920 or 2048 resolution and around 20 to 30 fps. I have a couple of other camera models mixed in here and there so there are a couple at 1280 by 720. I personally have...
