    Is this possible in Blue Iris?

    If I had 3 fixed cameras watching an area and I had 1 PTZ camera, is it possible within BI that when one of the stationary cameras detected motion it would trigger the PTZ to automatically go to a preset location and zoom to give a second angle and then return to default position after...

    Is it only me or is everyone else constantly reconnecting to see streams?

    Ever since I installed this app 5 or 6 updates ago I've always had to sometimes back out and reconnect to the server or to camera live or alert clips 4 or 5 times. It happens at home on a very fast network or on the road with good signal strength. You load the app and the alert section in the...

    The new updated android app has been pushed to the play store

    I had a hard time getting geofencing to work initially but my issue was I didn't give the app all the permissions it needed for it to run. Geofence now works for me buts my phone doesn't always update promptly when I come or leave the geofence. It seems to update most of the time when leaving...

    The new updated android app has been pushed to the play store

    I thought custom sounds were fixed when setting a custom sound but the Geofence notification sounds are not sticking. AND WHY am I seeing a note at the bottom stating hundreds of deleted categories. I do not see that in any other app.

    What is normal cpu usage?

    I figured I would update this as I finally found that the RasPi cameras using VLC to stream was causing the issue. I still cannot understand why the CPU loading would only happen in BI and not when viewing the stream on a VLC client. I received my new HP Elite Desk SFF and was getting the...

    The new updated android app has been pushed to the play store

    I would like to correct myself, I thought my notifications were working because I was able to change the sound after a notification came in but when a new notification comes in, the app wrongly creates a new notification category instead of using the same one. By doing this each new...

    The new updated android app has been pushed to the play store

    This latest version finally fixed the constant reloading of clips for me. The app still has some bugs to address and polishing but its pretty stable for me now.

    What is normal cpu usage?

    It has one M.2 port and I can get a 1TB for $134CAN, and if needed I can always upgrade the SSD or connect an external drive. I won't be recording continuous only the triggered content. I think I should be good. How many Mbit/sec should this unit be able to handle?

    What is normal cpu usage?

    I can get a HP EliteDesk 800 G2 Tiny Mini PC Core i5 6500T 8GB RAM 240GB SSD WiFi Windows10 Professional for $200CAN, thats like $150US. I know the T is not favorable but its reasonably priced. It is the T model CPU, how many Mb/sec can this potentially be able to process? At most I might...

    What is normal cpu usage?

    I reformatted and its not working and it looks like my rig isnt going to work with win10. I will probably try reinstall win7 because that is reported working. My last purchase if im honest its more an upgrade for my for me. I'm still going to keep an eye open for a cheap standalone like you...

    What is normal cpu usage?

    So right now I'm on a completely fresh install of windows10, with only the HD3000 running (the nVidia 1060 card is not in the computer) and the CPU is doing the exact same thing except this time if I enable intel acceleration I lose the camera feeds.

    What is normal cpu usage?

    my cameras are setup as headless IP cameras streaming RTSP using h.264. I opened both streams in VLC and I verified that the streams were encoded using h.264 in VLC

    What is normal cpu usage?

    I'm going to try re-installing win10 tonight in hopes of fixing this issue. Wish me luck :) I'm going to start by removing the nVidia 1060 card and once its up and running on the HD3000 and with BI I'll add it in after and see if there are any issues as I go. If I can get this working...

    What is normal cpu usage?

    What's weird is the CPU load hovers around 65% and then dips down to the low 40s and goes back up to ~65% and it seems to be a constant up and down cycle. You would expect the CPU load to be somewhat fluctuate randomly but it shows a definite pattern. I emailed BI support, maybe they have an...

    What is normal cpu usage?

    Yes sir I did. I ran a stress test on my CPU , RAM and a speed test on my SSD. Everything was normal. My CPU jumped to 3.7Ghz under load and I was running 78degrees C. I did check my power options as you recommended and it was on high performance and the 3 settings you mentioned to look at...

    What is normal cpu usage?

    I ran both streams in VLC with BI shut down and the CPU load was 6%, added a 3rd RasPi camera and it went to 9%. I have come to find out quicksync for the HD3000 gpu is not supported and isn't working in windows10. In the task manager it doesn't even show in the list under the performance...

    What is normal cpu usage?

    @bp2008 Excellent idea, I'll check that out tonight when I get home. I replaced the heatsink and fan on the cpu a year or so ago. I was running 10degrees higher than normal I guess its normal after 7 years 24/7 use the thermal paste was drying out. I replaced it and ran a 4 hour stress test...

    What is normal cpu usage?

    what I meant was I think the CPU issue I'm having is related to BI or something in my computer, not the cameras.

    What is normal cpu usage?

    Just for fun I raised the bitrate on both streams to 2MB/sec each (4MB/sec total) and that rose the CPU load from 66% to 79%. I also lowered the stream 100kB/sec and CPU load went to down to 64%. I will still try GStreamer to see if it makes a difference. I might be wrong but I don't think...

    What is normal cpu usage?

    I pulled the card no change. I tried selecting nvidia hardware acceleration no change. I tried disabling the page file, I read somewhere that was giving someone else a problem. It didn't work for me. I uninstalled BI thinking that maybe because I installed in on my D drive might be an issue...
