Brain cramp on my end and actually answers the main question by itself. My bad. The frustration level is looking for anything to explain the glitchy performance at this point. Nah. Don't bother. It would be an irrelevant exercise at best as relates to my situation. But thanks anyway. That's...

Care to post a video? And was Direct-to-Disk or anything else non-functional in such an old demo? That's sorta what the thread is about..., functionality of Eval Versions.

All of that covered, dude. And I'm comparing these results to my i7/4790 as clearly mentioned. Amcrest T2599 also included this time around. Same crappy stream in BI even at H.264, but not quite as pronounced. This is where I'm most disappointed since you also may recall that H.265 utilization...

Thanks for the reply. But actually, Direct-to-Disk was indeed non-functional in earlier versions according to several references I discovered after posting. That said, I'm asking now due to a single 4K camera in solo pulling over 30% CPU / 8% GPU on a newly set up Win10 Pro i5-9500 test rig...

I seem to recall Direct-to-Disk and maybe another key function or two not being available in the BI demo version in the past. Can anyone definitively say whether or not this i s still the case -- if it actually ever was?

Duh. If it were a snake... Sorry. :facepalm:

Bad/broken link.

I know all that. The intent is to provide Blue Iris with some marginal assistance for processing what is getting thrown at it in my particular use case. The normal company line has been that it can basically run great on junk given an 8 gig RAM stick, sub-streams, and d-to-d. 30 cameras on a...

Thanks, but been there, read all that in several threads..., a couple of times. And as mentioned previously, I have a general handle on the iCore CPU/GPU evolution..., at least to the extent that it would relate to my use of Blue Iris. I also know how the i7 4790 performs both with and without...

Hi again. If you'll indulge me a brief revival of the thread with a different angle on he same basic topic of trying to achieve any level of usable 4K/H.265 performance out of Blue Iris, I'd appreciate any additional input. I'll preface this by stating up front that the same cameras (Amcrest...

Hi, folks. First, thanks to @jaydeel for his excellent presentation, continuing guidance and patience of a saint throughout this thread. Additional thanks to all the other contributors as well. Like many, I ended up here as a result of my otherwise perfectly functioning MMS alerts through...

In case anyone may be interested, here's one way to do it. Sure seems like there would be a simple way to effectively do the same thing directly from the associated menu or menus. It's ridiculous to not have a way to clear these settings. Credit to MikeBwca on another forum for his effort...

I've been experimenting with the Event Scheduler trying to enhance night time performance on a couple of cameras. How are these settings cleared for a fresh start? I've been digging around and searching for awhile on this and coming up empty. I finally resorted to just deleting the camera and...

That's the thing, I did use Google maps, copy/pasted and let BI populate the entry boxes accordingly. It just slipped by among several other considerations I was also trying to sort out at the same time. As a bonus the existing entries fixed themselves. They need modified anyway, but it was...

Bingo. Blue Iris appears to show the opposite, but I'm actually W anyway and should have realized the '+' and '-' are prefixes for the respective coordinates. Dumb ass. So do you know how to clear event function settings to get back to camera defaults? That's next on the list. LOL Thanks a...

I'm well beyond all that. I could use your coordinates with the same resulting error in determining the Sunrise/Sunset offset. Regardless, Sunrise would still associate with a PM entry and Sunset with an AM entry when activating the Relative feature. The entry is being incorrectly applied in my...

Thanks for the response. I know how it's supposed to work. And the 9:12 just happens to be random in the example as I was experimenting with the settings at the time of the screenshot yesterday. The problem is AM and PM are reversed in BI as relate to Sunrise and Sunset as shown. A PM time...

I'm coming up empty searching on his one. The screen shot(s) pretty much speak for themselves. And man did it give me a run for the money trying to figure out how to schedule an individual 'Relative to Sunrise/Sunset' camera event until I realized what I was fighting. Sheesh. And on top of the...

I understand that as relates to the processor evolution itself. But does it tangibly translate to actual Blue Iris performance at the level I'm concerned with? If so, please elaborate.

'Preciate the links and everyone's input. I sorta know the general evolution of the processor families. Blue Iris doesn't seem to fall into leading edge development considerations for any of them until AI becomes a major element -- and what QuickSync can actually do in conserving CPU horsepower...

Yeah, I know. A pretty loaded question. And of course, 'it depends'. LOL I'm currently running a dedicated Optiplex 7020 SFF i7 4790, 16GB RAM, 256GB SSD, 4TB spinner, 20 odd cameras from 1080 to 4K, use Desktop mode almost 24/7, basic residential surveillance/observation application, no...

Ditto Ditto Ditto. My Verizon alerts were working perfectly until a few weeks ago when I began experiencing significant latency on a fairly consistent basis. Kept hoping it may clear up but finally said screw it and began looking for alternatives for my MMS alerts..., which were only several a...

Device account on port 2020 http://192.168.1.33:2020/onvif/device_service BTW, I've been meaning to post again here for awhile after discovering the firmware will only allow two simultaneous connections. I'm running it in Blue Iris, on a Dahua NVR, VLC, TinyCam, and the app. Had intermittent...

I don't know how relevant this analysis may be, but kickin' the tires of the C-110 with ONVIF Device Manager shows it being equipped with version 20.06 which looks to be circa 2020 or thereabouts. If so, there's some BI motion/trigger/etc integration capability there -- probably with a fair...

Curiosity got the best of me and I ended up buying a C110 to try as a dedicated monitor for the flu temp on my add-on wood burning furnace. Not quite ready for prime time using digital zoom from 6 feet away but will still serve the purpose. I may try more of an overhead view at less distance and...

You may find this interesting and a possible solution to image improvement at closer than typical range -- provided the Tapos use the common M12 lenses and can be popped apart fairly easily without destroying the housing and bezel. I have a Wyze Cam awaiting the mod just to see how practical it...

Thanks for the informative thread on these cams. Been sorta eying one to play with for awhile. Just noticed a 'C110P2' deal on Amazon -- a two pack for $37. That's nuts...

I've been wrestling with a similar export issue on Android TV devices with a 'you don't have an app that can do this' error when trying to export cameras.xml to local storage. No options. Nothing. Just a brick wall. I gave up trying to use a Firestick with tinyCam quite some time ago and can't...

Someone didn't know their trees very well. Depends on the species.

I have a couple Amcrest XVRs and cameras hanging off my BI network and occasionally cruise the Amcrest crowd, particularly those who are also BI users. I was initially intrigued by the Smart Home stuff simply as an ancillary platform until it became fairly obvious it's pretty much a boondoggle...
