Video freeze and FTP Send Error

[orbital.xp]

Hello everyone !

I am a new BI user, and I have an Y-cam 2nd generation (720p), used to record video on motion to my computer (Intel Core i5, 4Go Ram)

BI seems to work very well, but I'm experiencing two issues :

- Sometimes, when recording or not, the video is freezing during some time (2-3 seconds) in BI. Then, the videos comes back. I've set my camera to exchange data at 720p with 30FPS, and BI has the same configuration.

- I use FTP to transfer my videos files on a web-server. But sometimes, I get a "FTP Send Error : 5b4" during FTP upload. This problem is not present at each FTP file upload (and the small test file uploaded during the FTP test of BI is successful). But when this happen, all the videos files are stucked, due to only one file that canot be transfered to the server. When deleting the video file from BI, the FTP transfer continue with the other video files without problem... up to the following FTP Send Error...

Thank you for your help,

Samuel.

Try lowering your FPS in the camera to 15. You don't really need 30 and that's a lot of bandwidth. Make sure BI is set for the same FPS or a couple of frames faster.
Sorry, can't help with the FTP.

MrCourtney,

Thank you for your answer. I will try to do this.

For the FTP problem, I'm suspecting a timeout error generated by my web-server during transfer of big files.. The problem of BI is that we don't have any detail about the generated error : "FTP Send Error 5b4".

Any other comment or suggestion is welcome !
