I downloaded the Chrome extension and selected :IE 10 Standards Mode. Everything works for viewing and programming for me. To control MY camera in BI 5 : Network IP =ONVIF Enable ONVIF in the cameras setup. Settings/Network/Access Platform/ONVIF/On/save Good luck

I have same system i5-3470 with 8GB RAM. 16 cameras 81 MP/sec. Runs at 10-12% CPU. Go over the Optimizing in Wiki like wittaj suggested. It's the setup NOT the gear. You'll love it

Apologies for the noob cell pics. I read the Admin section and read it again. The instructions in the manual are for the initial setup and have no effect after the fact.( The incorrect settings stick like a barnacle) I UNCHECKED the ' RUN AS A WINDOW SERVICE' , rebooted, and THEN followed the...

Strange situation going on for months. System restarts twice a day following the shift from Night profile to daytime profile and back again, on the BI server. Not sure if the service goes down too. Wondered why so close to the same time and determined it was following the civic twilight/sunrise...

5.4.6.3 is working great for me

I'm really happy with the Continuous+Alerts recording. It is such a huge savings on disk space that I'm still waiting to see how many days 12TB can hold. The Dual Stream and C+A allows my i5-3470 to run 12 cameras 80MP/s at 10-12% CPU! Very impressed with the software. Kudos to the designer(s)...

In the ONVIF app when you select Sub-stream and view it in Live the sub URL should show in the bottom of the screen.

ONVIF Device manager is a good and free program. It will illustrate the correct URL to use in the BI parameters. Toggle between streams and the URL will be listed during the live view screen.

Sorry, the Sub stream needs to be enabled

Make sure Sub S is enabled in camera parameters

He’s remote controlled

True. Multi camera view will be limited to 3 FPS. My system is only an i5 3470. Any higher FPS on the sub works my CPU over. If something is of interest I just click and full stream in its glorious majesty is revealed. On an underpowered system ever bit helps sometimes.

CPU usage is high. You're not benefitting from the substream to lower the CPU usage. Go into each camera GUI and lower the resolution and frame rate of the substream. I have had no issues with setting mine ,as an example, as such: 4MP camera- Main stream (2688*1520) @30fps i-Frame@30 (it's...

Figured it out. ONVIF required a User name and password to be created, that was the password required for BI and ONVIF Device Manager to allow a connection.

Having issues trying to get BI to add the camera. I can log in to the camera through http: on my PC and have updated the password and IP address. The ONVIF has been enabled and the camera can be added through the Camera Discovery, however, I am at a loss as to what to use in the Main Stream box...

I have 3 Pelco PTZ's hooked up through a Dahua DVR that streams to my BI. Everything works fine, but when compared to my 2MP cams its like having sand in your eyes. BI will allow all functions but AUX relays to function on those cams.

I'm looking at the same camera to purchase, too. Did you acquire one, and are you happy with the night performance? It would be appreciated if you posted some day and night clips please. Thanks

Out of the blue (pun) my BI system first froze ( one camera dropped). I attempted a restart as the cursor had no effect on any part of the GUI, and subsequently the BI would flash on and immediately drop out. Several attempts to load failed so I reinstalled the program only to witness the same...

Settings in the cameras GUI are set for 4k? Try using ONVIF device manager to verify stream output and channel.

Yeah. Good idea. tried now and went fresh, with no clones etc. The substream address seems right as i can feed the sub as the main and the record quality is reduced. Odd it doesn't maximize to full HD like the rest.

Running 5.2.7.12 with 6 IP and 6 Analog cams. Super low CPU usage of 6-10% using the second stream option. 5 of the 6 cams will enlarge and switch to full MP mode when selected. One cam will not follow suit. It will enlarge and remain as a low res live image. I have 2 of these cheap cams and...

My CPU needs a heater now! 4 of the 6 cameras running on substream and CPU at 16%. Brilliant addition to an already great system.

I still use feeds from my DVR and record with BlueIris. I have 3 Analog PTZ's and an LPR that work seamlessly with the 5 regular IP cams all running through the BI. No need to throw the old analog out yet,. I would never hesitate to purchase BI software . You just must have a decent and...

I've recently gotten 2 of my Analog PTZ's running through a DVR and controlled by BI. A few things i have encountered and set up for best results are the following: Smooth panning requires Live Preview Rate @ 30 FPS In PTZ/Control the panning speed can be adjusted. My best results are at 5-6...

5250 has changed everything to a much lower and stable norm. Thanks for all your help.

So... I have the latest update. Is there a limit to how many clones of 1 specific camera? Should there be any increase at all in CPU usage once clones are added? I can clone sub 4.1MP camera and there is hardly an increase in CPU. When the Dahua 4.1 is cloned it really ramps up. 1 clone is ok...

Add New Camera/copy from another camera... All recording functions disabled. Designated clone master de-selected Shows zero bitrate in the status

CPU is up to 100% from 30% after cloning 2 cameras to use for PTZ preset activation. All recording functions seem to be turned off but the usage is very high. Any ideas?

SOLVED!! Using ONVIF device Manager I logged into the DVR and PTZ channel and found that the DVR was using Port 8080. Selecting that Port 8080 in the setup tabs and trying various manufacturers in the drop down menu I selected Dahua V4 and Shazaam! Full functionality of the Spectra II. Hopefully...

Did you ever figure it out? I have a similar problem.
