    365 days of saved video/ audio help

    My next question. Through research it appears H.265 indoors, persons within 20ft, that 2mp at 1024 bitrate would be my minimum required specs to identify someone. If thats the case, 4.5 TB per camera per year is all I need. (Based on the kb/s from my bolide camera with these settings) I may...

    365 days of saved video/ audio help

    I am lucky that I have been using BI for six years with 35 cameras because we are an indoor shooting range. Most FFLs have antiquated cameras or nothing.

    Also, I want to use Blue Iris because the “authorities” must have access to the system and be able to playback and check function.

    365 days of saved video/ audio help

    I’m sorry, I reread my original post. I have 35 cameras now. Only 5-6 will need to save that much video. At 2MP I need about 60-70TB of space.

    SMTP Error and Alerts

    Wow, that was it. So, I use Zoho as my email. Zoho disabled the email I used for the alerts. So, I deleted it and recreated it. Now it all works again. Thank you very much for the help!

    Switch from BI4 to BI5, now I have high CPU and Memory usage

    I made the changes you suggested wit Sub Stream. My CPU is currently at 7% and RAM at 4gb of usage. Lets see how it does through the day. Question... Can I turn the Main Stream to 265 to save hard drive space, or do you still recommend 264? Thanks

    Switch from BI4 to BI5, now I have high CPU and Memory usage

    Nope. It has been going up on its own. It was a stable 25-30% cpu and 10-12 gig ram usage before the update.

    Switch from BI4 to BI5, now I have high CPU and Memory usage

    I will be doing the sub stream fix this week. I just wanted to see what may be causing the issue with only the version change. I didn't want to do two changes and still have the same issue.

    Switch from BI4 to BI5, now I have high CPU and Memory usage

    No other changes, just a version change. Thats why I'm stumped at the sudden increase in ram and cpu usage.

    Switch from BI4 to BI5, now I have high CPU and Memory usage

    I turned off Microsoft Defender Policy in the Local Group Policy Editor. I'll start working on the sub stream, that will take me some time. We use 30fps for a specific reason in our business, only 8 of the cameras use it. The rest are 15fps and lower. Any suggestions with taking more advantage...

    Battery Backup

    I put my cameras, router, and computer on battery backups. The computer has the shortest runtime of 35 minutes on battery. I have windows 10 setup to go to sleep at 20 minutes. Will this properly shut down blue iris (stop recording and save) so I don't lose the current video?
