motion detection

Hey guys, I'm doing a trial of blue iris (will most likely end up buying once i get this motion stuff working), and I've run into some issues with the motion detection and recording. Long story short, I have a couple hikvision cams running blue iris on my windows 7 media center. I downloaded...

We have a camera set up to record wildlife at night. I have the motion detection triggering without problems but I need the triggered recordings to be at least 90 seconds long (some animals come into shot and hardly move at all. Blue Iris then stops recording. For the life of me I can't see...

Hi All, Hoping someone can give me some pointers here while I trial the Blue Iris software. Apologies for the long post but just wanted to make sure I cover everything! I currently use a Hikvision NVR for all my CCTV needs with 1 bullet and 2 dome camera's. My NVR is the DS-7604NI-E1 / 4P...

Hello everyone. I have a small backyard that should not be accessible. I'd like to put a camera that warns me if someone (or something) is in the 20 ft x 20 ft area. Unfortunately I can't install an alarm system and I'd like to have a live feed of the area during the day so I thought maybe I...

Hi everyone, I've installed a NVR and 7 poe cameras on it. I want to setup motion notifications to push to my clients HIK connect app but can't seem to work it out. I've drawn my motion windows, enabled push notifications on the app and setup a schedule on the app. I feel I've not correctly...

Hello Friends, So i have all the cameras recording 24 hours in BI, Now, i used to have on this bar: Some lines to what ever specific times that the motion was trigger! How do i get those motion lines back? My cameras are set to record 24 hours, and then starts the next 24 hours, but if i...

Hey guys, did anybody else encounter problems with the motion detection feature in the IPC-HFW1320S-W? I use motion detection for record and works well for a few days. After a couple of days the sensitivity is set back to 60 for Region1 and no area is selected. So no motion is recorded anymore...

I have one HIKVISION DS-2CD234WD-I 4MP EXIR Turret Camera. Setup on Blue Iris running on an I5 with 8 gigs of ram and 4TB hard drive. I am having a real problem with motion detection. I got 28 alerts today, but my wife walked passed the camera 3 or 4 times and it never alarmed all the...

I have a camera in Blue Iris set up to record on motion. (Driveway view, 2.8mm) It triggers much of the time, but I have noticed a few occasions where it will trigger once but not retrigger, even though the motion is still going on within the hot zone. (So it looks like people are disappearing)...

Hi I have just had a Hikvision system installed... and I am struggling to setup the alerts they way I want them. The instructions confuse me more than they help. Please help me! On my Windows Computer, I am running IVMS-4200 v2.3.4.16 I am also running the latest version of IVMS-4200 (lite)...

Hi, I'm looking at a couple of cameras...some have just basic motion detection. Others have IVS(Intelligent Video Surveillance) - Specifically Tripwire, Intrusion, Line Cross, Abandoned Object Detection, Missing Object Detection. There are others too out there like facial detection...not sure...

Hi ipcamtalk, I've just spent a couple of hours poking around this site and now feel that I at least have some bearings in the wilderness of DIY security cameras and systems. Whew. So glad to have found youl! My immediate interest is in setting up a simple and inexpensive 2 or 3 camera...

Hey guys, I've bought an Hikvision NVR DS-7116NI-SN/P, with firmware V2.3.6 build 131120. After many hours, I've succeeded to configure the EMail, and EMail test is going great and sending me emails. I've tried to configure motion alarms by EMails, and to attach an HDD and failed with both of...

Hi, I finally decided to go with Blue Iris and would like your suggestions on the good but not overly expensive cameras that will fit the following requirements: - good video recording quality (day and night) - trigger a motion alert and send notification via iPhone app - trigger a noise alert...

I have a question regarding how Blue Iris handle motion detection. For example, I now use a 8ch NVR (N6200-8E) a cheap china disk based NVR. It records the h.264 streams that it grabs directly without transcoding from the Cameras. The NVR itself does not use any motion detection but instead uses...

I have installed the Swann NVR8 7300 and receive hundreds of motion notifications every day in my email. I have the sensitivity turned down to 50 (lowest) and have only a small section of each camera view blocked out for sensing motion. Swann has told me to set up a new email for the...

Hopefully looking for some guidance and advice to an annoying problem that i've been unable to solve. Every other photo that is emailed to me as a result of my motion detection being triggered is received corrupted as per the attached. Does anyone else have this problem and/or advicehow to solve...

After updating to the most recent version on one of my Blue Iris boxes I noticed a new issue. The Camera is displaying the time and Blue Iris is detecting the numerals changing as motion. I have not yet come up with a workaround to meet my needs and was looking for any input. I am using the...

I am looking for some good, RELIABLE cameras, as follows: Outdoor (hopefully 2-3 MP) WiFi (hopefully 802.11b/g/n), Night Vision & Motion Detection Monitoring & Playback on PC, with Blue Iris Power: 12V DC Plugin Transformer (Not PoE) I now have 5 Zmodo ZP-IBI13-W & ZP-IBH-13W...

I cannot get a new Dahua NVR4108 to send email, except using Google's smtp service. That smtp service replaces all images with mid-grey pixels, a subtle way of saying "use another service." I have tried using several paid-for smtp email services. I get 'Test Error', when I press the test button...

I have a Foscam 9831P in my basement. At night there is simply no light down there but BI (4.2.3.1 x64) keeps alerting on motion. I have attached a screen shot of my Motion/Trigger settings. The camera is set to night vision at all times. Any assistance would be appreciated.

Hello, How do you set-up your motion detection to ignore tree limbs blowing in the breeze or when shadows on the ground move from sunlight shining through trees? I've tried changing the sensitivity and contrast and nothing seems to work. Thanks, DT

First post. Thanks! A bit thick headed. For PTZ. Need help understanding smart tracking versus auto tracking. It appears "auto" tracking can monitor a pre-defined region, at rest, or a scanned region while on patrol, and if motion is detected, the camera will zoom into the object causing...

Problem: I have been trying to figure out why my camera's (I've had a Hik 2032 and now a Dahua in this location in 1080P Mode) will not pick up motion when someone comes up from the left (Camera POV) of the camera's FOV until the person hits the middle of my walk way. I have a Hot spot there...
