    SD49425XB-HNR - No Auto Tracking?

    I have two of them, and I bought both of them from Andy. One of them is the Dahua branded one, the other one is a 'Loryta' model. I just checked the older Dahua branded one, and it doesn't have it either. Ironically enough, the Amazon page for the 'Loryta' camera has a step by step configuration...

    SD49425XB-HNR - No Auto Tracking?

    I am trying to configure Auto Tracking for my SD49425XB-HNR, but the "Alarm Track" box isn't even showing up. Is there something I'm missing? Tried multiple browsers, including IE. The rules are properly applied, as I configured a PTZ rule where it goes from one preset to another once motion is...

    Help with log errors

    I have been getting some interesting stuff in my log recently. The HW encode informational sporadically pops up, and the "AddToBIDB failed" errors show up occasionally with groups of different cameras, but I don't notice any degradation or loss of clips. Take AuxParking for example. The error...

    License Plate Camera for Blue Iris

    Seconded. I have two of these (same directional configuration as what you are planning), and they have been running strong for a while now.

    Unable to access camera after network change

    Disregard. Took a laptop to the switch and added a static route in Windows to allow the primary network to access the camera.

    Unable to access camera after network change

    I was spending most of the day configuring a dual NIC setup, and putting my cameras on an isolated subnet. For some reason, one of my SD49425XB-HNR's had network access control on, restricting access to my main network. I only realized this after changing the IP of the camera to the new subnet...

    My primary PC has a 4790k. I was using it from 2014-2019 for BI with about the same load as you, and it was fine. I actually had more overhead on it because I had BI running in a VM (super inefficient- bridged the extra NIC I had to the VM and isolated it to mitigate remote access...

    Yes, it's going to be running all the time. In a back room. With the door closed. Darn thing is LOUD. @crw030 , I will do that when I have some extra downtime this weekend. Thanks for the great idea. I'm running Windows 10 Pro. Not doing the substreams yet. That'll be on the docket for further...

    Ah, I didn't even think about that. I will play around with it once I get some other important configuration squared away. Managed to get the other 4MP cameras working correctly. The math was right on the money, 2708 MP/s, with no signs of hitting the wall. At this level of workload, I am...

    Well, I'm not very good at technical writeups (You win that one by a mile, @bp2008 !) , but I'll share my findings so far with my 3970x build and answer any questions to the best of my knowledge. Bottom Line: The Threadripper 3970x eats a beefy BI setup for breakfast. I am meeting my exact...

    3990X & Blueirs thoughts ?

    I noticed in the past when using the single RTX 2060, the CUDA graph on the task manager view would only be around 30-40% when the Video Decode graph would be maxed out. How do those play with each other, as far as maxing out the CUDA acceleration goes? I'm admittedly not very sharp on the...

    Below is the last benchmark I did for the Sabrent Rocket 2TB. She's pretty quick.

    @crw030 - Thank you for the great write-up! The sub-stream feature will definitely free up a lot of CPU overhead to run other stuff on this build. In my case, the extra horsepower isn't all for naught, as I need it for the overhead that RDP creates. My 9900k system actually did pretty well when...

    3990X & Blueirs thoughts ?

    Very nice. I'm kind of doing the same with my memory, but on a smaller scale. I got the 4x16GB kit, which allows for quad channel, but still gives me the option of expansion in the future. Don't think I'll ever need that much memory though. Depends on what else I'm using the PC for aside from...

    Small update- -Got the new board in and got everything put together. Ran into some initial headaches with having to flash the BIOS to recognize my memory, and the primary BIOS being corrupted out of the gate. The feature where you can plug in a USB in the dedicated port in the back and push the...

    The first one I got was completely parallel with the IO panel and with the mobo backplate. This one looks like a subtle taco from both sides. With the sheer amount of packages UPS is throwing in their trucks right now, I can only imagine what kind of hits this thing took, especially if it fell...

    Update 2- Amazon, in their infinite wisdom, decided to ship the replacement mobo in only the mobo box, with nothing securing the flap. They literally just slapped a UPS label on the outside of the box with an untaped flap and sent it on its way. It is evident that the board fell out of the box...

    Update- Took the mobo out of the box and it had a capacitor leaking. I can't win. New one is going to be here Thursday,

    Case is all configured with the fans and initial cable management routing on the back. Working on the mobo today outside of the case. All components are in except for the PSU and GPU support brackets, which will be here tomorrow and Wednesday, respectively. Should have it fired up and doing OS...

    I'm totally with you on the 3970x being a good choice. For me, the juice wasn't worth the squeeze for the 3990x when you do a dollar per core ratio, and it would have totally blown my budget. I spent a while looking at what RAM to get, and what would work with my mobo via the QVL. I ended up...

    Outdoor Ethernet cable, that’s also good for indoor as well

    I have both ISP and OSP cable. I only use the outside plant cable when I absolutely have to. Icky pic is both a blessing and a curse. If that cable has it, and you're going to be terminating a lot of it, you might want to invest in some of the icky pic remover.

    Dual NIC setup on your Blue Iris Machine

    Thanks for the clarification. I wasn't sure if some cameras have some kind of sneaky backdoor, like an alternate MAC or IP or something that it can use to get out. I don't trust anything. My router has a dumbed-down version of an ACL in the form of a parental control blacklist. I tested it out...

    Dual NIC setup on your Blue Iris Machine

    Would explicitly blocking outbound WAN access to the specific cameras via ACL on a router's built-in FW accomplish the same thing?

    I'll put my line splitter and clamp meter on it once I get it up and running. I'm stuffing 10 spinners, an RTX 2060 and a GTX 1660 in there. The Outervision PSU calculator is estimating about 900w load running 90% TDP for my system.

    @tech101 - That's a lot of RAM! What motherboard supports that capacity? I'm going with the Aorus Master, 64GB DDR4-3600mhz CL16 in 16GB DIMMs. Going to give the TR-specific Noctua cooler a shot. Adding two of the chromax variant fans to the cooler for push/pull. Slightly higher RPM's as well. I...

    I have a... peculiar setup. I built the 9900k PC last year, but it trips the breaker in the room I wanted to put it in due to all the other devices and appliances running. Because of the old wiring, I can't upgrade to a 20a circuit unless all the wiring is replaced. I have the PC in another room...

    Any updates on the build? I'm doing a TR 3970x build right now that will be done in a few weeks. My current 9900k system is getting crushed, so it'll be interesting to see what improvements the TR and higher memory bandwidth bring to the table.

    5.2.4 - March 31, 2020 - AMD/DirectX and D3D11 decoding now supported

    Thanks fenderman. I have auto update disabled, but I had the brilliant idea of just downloading it without coming here to read the comments first. Won't make that mistake twice!

    5.2.4 - March 31, 2020 - AMD/DirectX and D3D11 decoding now supported

    Ever since 5.2.4.0, BI will sporadically crash, then when it restarts from the BI Tools Watchdog, all of my cams that are direct-to-disk have hardware accelerated decode switched to "off". The non direct-to-disk cams are unaffected. Happens every few days. I'll wake up to find BI restarting and...

    Hardware acceleration cuts out intermittently

    I think I found the culprit, but I cannot understand the logical explanation as to the cause. Any advice would be appreciated. When I didn't know any better, I bought a few Reolink RLC-410's, which would cut out on me all the time and just be a royal pain in my side. When I upgraded my...
