Would love someone to send me a link to something they recommend. $400-500 price range is fine.
Try using Amcrest Surveillance Pro(ASP) to change iFrame. I've used it to change to H.265 on an ASH21 not connected to BI.How do you change the iFrame on the Amcrest ASH43? It doesnt have a web interface

Go to Device Cfg on ASP home page.
Then to Camera>Encode>Video.

I suppose you are using mainstream to record and substream for BI motion. If so, I think you actually have eight wifi cameras or streams.
If BI supports H.265, it might be good to use it for the eight streams. It could significantly reduce the wifi bandwidth and possibly help your wifi camera problem. Reducing fps as much as possible may also help.
If you have AC receptacles somewhere near the ASH43 cams, you could try Power Line adapters to use ethernet instead of wifi.
Edit: Above URL changed to the correct link.
Choosing Hardware for Blue Iris | IP Cam TalkCAn anyone send me a link of a computer to use as a DVR that meets all the best specs?
Try using BI find/inspect button to configure those cameras, generally going with what that finds works well.That worked to change iFrame (called I-Interval in ASP)!
For General Stream type (which I assume is the Main Stream), it offers H.264 or H.265 for the main stream and H.264 or H264B for sub. Which are best to use with BI?
Here is another issue: If you look the 2 screenshots I am attaching, both are for the ASH43. Look at the selection options for the main stream and substream. Why are they offering different versions of options for the same model camera?
What are the correct options I should be using for main and sub streams?
The Dell's you linked will accept 1- 3.5" standard hard drive and 1 NVME-m.2 drive or a 2.5" SSD.
( I'm pretty Sure) the newer they get the less likely it is that they'll even have a full size drive bay.
The wifi distance between the amcrest cams and an access point could be a factor. Asus Mesh: we set that up at my Brothers house, and it was tricky to get one AP to let go of it's weak signal and auto connect to the stronger signal.
We were having to do it manually. Are all the mesh units named something different so you can tell which AP the cams are connecting to?
If the cam data is hopping across the Air 2 or 3 times, that could explain choppy video
and like the guys said, a mobile processor with that many cams could a bottle neck. Is the mobile device a laptop? is it using ethernet or Wifi to connect to the network?
The laptop running BI5 is hardwired to the primary router.
The CPU is never getting above 50%. So how can that be a bottleneck?
Is 8 GIG RAM enough in a desktop? I thought 16 GB was sort of a minimum?
That HP 800, which drive would you store BI5 on and which drive to use for Clips? Does it support the WD 8 TB Purple drive?
