    Amcrest SmartHome Video Doorbell Camera AD110

    I just went on a car trip. I "wasted" the prep time finishing up the setup on my Amcrest AD110 video doorbell. I set up the free cloud account and added the camera to Blue Iris. We were having lunch 600 miles away from home when my Pixel 2 XL "rang" with someone at the door. With a few glitches...

    Amcrest SmartHome Video Doorbell Camera AD110

    There's a setting in the camera setup for the Chime type, Mechanical, Digital or None. Try using one of the first two. I just got my AD110 to work wiring the power from the transformer directly to the doorbell. Note that unlike with the other brands you don't need a power resistor when you...

    Amcrest SmartHome Video Doorbell Camera AD110

    I just received the Amcrest doorbell camera purchased on sale on Amazon. Has anyone else figured out how the power works? My guess is that the "chime module" included is an inductive coil to put a load on the push button circuit so the camera can draw some power while wired in series with the...

    BI locks up Windows 10 after 4.6.9.3 upgrade even after revert

    I've got it at 51% CPU now. I still think something is wrong because the system show BI was using 26% CPU when BI shows 100%. Is BI not using more than 1 CPU core? Being that I am nuts, I'm fully willing to buy a new motherboard, 8th Generation CPU and RAM for the BI if needed. Some...

    BI locks up Windows 10 after 4.6.9.3 upgrade even after revert

    My uncompleted "killer" desktop has a i7-4770K CPU that I see can do 4096x2304@24Hz I'll move that to the BI DVR server and get an 8th Generation Z370 for the killer. I just hope I can move the Windows 10 Pro install. Maybe this will give the motivation to finish these projects.

    BI locks up Windows 10 after 4.6.9.3 upgrade even after revert

    I have a BI license , not the demo version. Where do I choose Direct to disk? This BI server has an SSD for the C: drive. I guess I need a CPU and motherboard. The way I procrastinate I can move up my killer i7 system that I haven't finished. What "generation" CPU do I need to have a handful...

    BI locks up Windows 10 after 4.6.9.3 upgrade even after revert

    Real time scanning has been off. I disabled cameras and detmined that the 3MP Hikvision alone used 30& CPU. I guess I have selected feed options that are CPU intense. I have disabled motion capture on all but one camera. With 4 cameras active CPU is at 99%. It wasn't that bad before when I...

    BI locks up Windows 10 after 4.6.9.3 upgrade even after revert

    I upgraded BI to 4.6.9.5. It's working - mostly - but the CPU is still pinned at 100% even after I disabled half the cameras and turned off motion detection on all but one camera. BI is definitely bogging down the whole system. It was working fine, with CPU at 20-60% before the 4.6.9.3...

    BI locks up Windows 10 after 4.6.9.3 upgrade even after revert

    Creating a new thread from the problem I first mentioned here: Update 4.6.9.3 and can no longer send 'push notifications' ? BI is still hanging the system and crashing even after I reverted as far as to 4.6.2.1. The CPU is pinning at 100% before Windows reports that's it not responding. The UI...

    Update 4.6.9.3 and can no longer send 'push notifications' ?

    I had to revert to v4.6.2.1 but it's still slow and hoopy. "Blue Iris Video Security ...is not responding" I was thinking that a Windows Update messed it up, but the one I got on 02/21/2018 is the Microsoft HIDClass 9.9.108.0 driver update. I tried twice to do a System Restore but it fails...

    Update 4.6.9.3 and can no longer send 'push notifications' ?

    I know. That's not so easy. I see that previous versions are linked here. I'll get to that.

    Update 4.6.9.3 and can no longer send 'push notifications' ?

    I allowed the automatic upgrade. It totally hosed my Windows 10 Pro server. The UI freezes and locks up with the spinning hoop and "Blue Iris is not responding..." I can't even close BI. ARGH
