Any ideas on the older alerts disappearing from the timeline and alerts clip list? You think it could also be related to using harware acceleration?

No sorry that is confusing. I meant Hardware Acceleration.

I had wondered this. Im using 2 Skyhawk 4tb drives as a dynamic volume. They pass the healthchecks on crystaldiskinfo but do have some hours of them. How to tell?

Well you have convinced me to try that for sure. The Xeon doesn't have iGPU so using the card was needed for HA. I'll activate substreams and turn off HA and see if it helps.

Blue Iris is not set to autoupdate.

I am using it for HA. I am not running substreams at the moment, just limiting frame rate in the view to 5 FPS. Apart from that yes i have gone through the wiki. I have not downloaded codeproject. For me just alerts via IVS is enough. Its the latest stable version (not on computer right now)...

I have been using Blue Iris for a few weeks now. Im am running on a Dell 5820 with Xeon and Nvidia P2000. Only other application on the machine is Home Assistant on a Hyper V VM. Licensed version of Windows 10 Pro. I have had 5 instances now of a random non-responsive computer. Recordings stop...

I just noticed that 2 of my cameras stopped recording 2 days ago. BI UI shows "No signal" but the cameras are working fine - I can navigate to their interface no problem. Might be coincidence but it happens to be both of my Dahua 5442 cams. I have another Dahua 2431 which continues to work fine...

The jagged edges on my Dahua 5442 and 2431 cams when viewing the live feed drives me a bit nuts. I have changed the video scaling setting on the console settings to bilinear and it looks sooo much better when viewing there. Despite some reports, in my case it appeared to have no real impact on...

Of course. On this cam I have an intrusion box. So if the hedge is not touching the box then it shouldn't be affecting anything should it.

I changed the minimum size which did help but am still getting false positives. Much better though. There is a hedge close to the camera which moves in the wind sometimes. I had it set to human but could this be the issue? Unfortunately can't move the FOV to exclude it and being close to the...

If you run as a windows service can you still navigate to the UI from a local computer? or do you have to open the console on the server before you can navigate to the UI?

It's a 2.8mm and I am attempting to detect people out to about 45 feet so maybe that is asking too much but I will try your recommendations.

I finally got around to testing this further. I have setup two cameras which are located next to each other in high motion environments (windy, trees, water). The cameras are 5442 and 2431 respectively. The 5442 seems to be working well set up the way wittaj described. The 2431 is working too...

Thank you!! I have set the camera up as described but not BI. Will try tonight.

I have been trying this over the weekend and cannot seem to get the tripwire alerts to show up in the BI timeline on UI3. Is there any settings that need to be configured on the BI or camera end?

Thanks!!!

Yes both are off. It is a 2.8mm camera. It does seem as you describe - just a weird effect on certain things like light reflected of a rippled water surface and along certain borders - its not like a typical low res image. Never seen it before but this is my highest resolution camera. So this...

I noticed the other day that when viewing my 4 cameras (2 of these are dahua) through the Xprotect Smart Client screen that the HDW5442TM-ASE image looked a bit strange. When i double click to expand the window for that camera to full page view it changes to a great looking image. This does not...

I use Milestone Xprotect to record 24/7 with 4 cameras. In the past I have been using motion detection but always get the inevitable false positives due to high motion scenes (water, trees). My usual procedure was to log into the smart client periodically, scale out on the timeline for the last...

Hi everyone. Wondering if I can get a bit of help here. I have set up an older Dahua NVR (4832) with the latest version of firmware and have installed SmartPSS on a windows PC and DMSS on my phone. I am currently using Milestone Xprotect on another Windows based PC and planning on moving over to...

Awesome info thanks!

I'm quite confused here. I recently picked up a Dahua NVR4832. It is EOL but will suit my needs. Up until now I have been using Milestone Xprotect and would like to explore the option of going over to NVR now that I am moving to Dahua cameras. Basically I just want to be able to remote view...

I ended up ordering a hdw5442tm-ase in 2.8mm. I have to see what all the fuss is about. It will be mounted right next to the hdw2431 for now so will be interesting to compare. I did look at the 4k cameras but I wanted an eyeball camera and they don't seem to make those yet. Plus there is quite a...

Good to know. Is your stream H265 or H264?

Good to know thanks. I am looking at fixed lens to try to save a bit of money. Is the newer HDW5442 only available as motorised lens ("z" version)? If so what is the general opinion on HFW vs HDW for outdoor use. I will be mounting this particular one on a pole and have supplemental IR lights...

Hi everyone. I'd appreciate some advice please. I know the 1/1.8" CMOS in the 5442 Dahuas are favoured on the forum. From what I understand, this is primarily for their night time clarity. I am considering getting a HDW5442TM-ASE. I am after a camera that overlooks the rear of my property. 2.8mm...

Interesting. Thanks again. The 5442h does look like a nice camera but yes, does seem to be more quite a bit more expensive and not as easily available. I do like the sound of that long range audio but I guess hard to say if it would suffer from wind noise just as badly as the 2431. The 5442 I...

Thanks Steve. What are the real world benefits of dual mics? I didn't know they existed in ip cameras. Would potentially help with wind noise? I have considered stepping up to the 5442.

Hi. Just wondering if anyone can comment on general quality differences in the image of these two cameras. I have one HDW2431 and it seems good for the money. It is an outdoor Installation and I am using Milestone Xprotect. The only minor issue I have found is wind noise in the mic and audio is...
