No these aren't Chinese cameras, US versions. I did finally get the browser\web interface to work, the problem being that the Webcomponent.exe needed to be installed, after that the browse button worked. I was able to update the firmware on the 2 cameras that were not up to date which were also...

I have 2 of these cameras in a friends system using BI. The passwords continuously reset. Not sure if someone is access them or what. I have changed the password several times to strong passwords and these 2 out of 6 cameras always reset after a week or so. At least I have found a rest tool that...

TY I will go through of the wiki too. I have several of these systems that I manage. So I'm not new to BI, but there is a lot to learn Thanks again

Yes the cameras and PC are wired to the switch and then to the router. TY

Thank you I'm working on it. TY TY

Thank you they are now!! CPU dropped tp 8-10 percent. now trying to enable Quick Sync TY Ty

I'm having an issue with a new system/install. Dell i7-10700, 12Gb Ram, 512 SSD m.2, 4Tb purple drive, 5 HikVision DS-2CD2343G0-I 2.8MM cameras, full version Blue iris 5.5.1.5 x64, The issue is the CPU runs about 60-70 %, and all cameras are like slow motion and about a 1-2 minute lag, I have...

Darn, wishing I saw this before I bought the Amcrest. But I have it set up now and is working fine TY

TY for the reply, I have ordered the Amcrest from the IPCamTalk store

Ty. I usually use Hikvision cameras, but I have a request for a WiFi camera that will sit on a mantle. What would you recommend?

Does anyone know for sure that they will work with Blue Iris. Thanks in advance

This ended up being that the foam ring around the camera lens had shrunken away from the dome lens, letting in the IR light. I fixed this by cutting off the foam ring and shimming it up by gluing a piece of foam pipe insulation under it to space it out against the dome lens again. It works...

I have a few systems that are set up using Hikvision cameras in Blue Iris. Several cameras (DS-2CD2132F-I) and similar models that look terrible at night. Looks like the IR is bouncing around in the dome and reflecting bad. They Look real foggy looking. Am I missing something in the settings?

After setting BI to run as a service, reduced live preview frame rate, and video scaling, it now is running in the 50-60 % range Thank you everyone.

1. yes it is i5-4440 typo 2. not sure what you mean here 3. 2.2 4. yes McAfee 5. not its on a hard disc with an external HDD as storage

Yes I have pretty much done all that except the start as a service, live preview frame rate, video scaling, text and graphic overlays, encoder preset, and limit decoding. I have remote access to this PC so I will try those to reduce it TY

I am managing a machine that has blue iris 4.8.4.3 x64 running with 7x 4mp wbox and hikvision cameras. the system is an intel i5 4440 8gb ram an intel HD graphics 4600 onboard video card. Windows 8.1 The cpu runs at 95-100% most all the time. I have limited the cameras to 15fps and also set...

UPnP was on on the router and cameras, but the only port forward that was used was to the sever for blue iris

The cameras were not port forwarded, The sever that runs the Blue Iris software is port forwarded so the mobile Blue Iris software can access the cameras. At least that's how I'm understanding it

How can I tell if my Hikvision cameras are Chinese version or not?

Is there a way to get the cameras to be viewable from the internet without port forwarding.

Thanks for all the suggestions, I will disable the UNPN in the router and cameras. will Blue Iris still show cameras on mobile devices with port forwarding off? I'll try it both ways to see TY

I have several Hikvision cameras set up in a home running on Blue Iris software the cameras periodically stop showing up in Blue Iris because the admin password does not work any longer. So I'm assuming they are being hacked. What should I do to prevent this

This fixed my issue, the OP

Updated the driver from 21.20.16.4534 to 21.20.16.4542. Let's see what happens TY fenderman

Oh OK TY

I have been using Blue Iris for several years on this system. It seems that after up grading from 3.0 to 4.0 is where the trouble started. BU will stop responding, the cameras will be stopped all at a certain time and stay that way till you close BU and reopen it. It still records and stores...

Ok cool, TY I did read the help section, but didn't understand it much. I was understanding that when set to triggered + continuous, combined with the cut video when triggered, that the recordings would cut and start a new recording when triggered? When set to continuous will I still get...

Thanks fenderman
