I've been noticing that my cameras aren't re-activating the trigger event. This afternoon two cameras picked up a UPS pulling into the driveway. The UPS sat there until the trigger time ended, and didn't re-activate when the UPS truck drove out of the driveway. I have the "End trigger unless...

ok, so I have been playing with BI for a few months. Great software, fits my needs. I am using mostly Hikvision cameras. I saved up a few questions now that I've been through the learning curve: 1. I have a 2TB Purple drive and need to at least double that. Will BI work well if I RAID 0...

Ok, so it is not like I've not setup 400 or so of these cameras now so I feel I know my way around pretty well. Yet here I sit stumped and ready to severely injure some Hik 3032 cameras...... I am installing 24 Hik cameras in both bullets and domes right now at a new site. I have about 16...

Hi all, Pleb question here, currently running two crap Foscams and wanting to move up to some 2 or 3 mpixel Hikvisions. Seeing as most do not come with a power supply, meaning either PoE to a wall wart with injector or to a PoE switch, the ones on AliExpress seem to be 48v, do the 12v cameras...

Hi all. First post, so please be kind. :) Let me start off by saying that we're building a new home out in the woods where any would-be perp could ply his trade quietly without alarming any neighbors, because we don't have any. Since we don't have the basic security of "prying eyes" of the...

I'm planning on setting up an IPCAM system currently it will be small 6 cams, I will eventually expand to 26. My current network at my office is a 192.168.1.* network, would I also use this this same subnet for my cameras? or is it best practice to setup another subnet? If I put all cams on...

Is there a way to turn off cameras so live view is disabled or shows dummy picture and no new recordings are created. The reason I want this functionallity is that I want to have all cameras off when alarm is off. Outdoor cameras on when alarm set to intruder protection and all cameras on when...

Hi, I'm setting up Blue Iris for a friend, he has 4 Hikvision IP cameras. So far I've installed the trial version of the software and got it set up to record on motion detection, and send an email with 4 images in that are spaced 2 seconds apart. The motion detection aspect of it is working...

I have a project where there is currently 40+ IP cameras feeding into a high end (Geuterbruck) NVR. All that is running well. Now all they need is to add 2x 32" screens to show 8-12 cameras per screen just for viewing. I am thinking that we could use commercial screens with HDMI inputs, and...

Hi guys! Even though I have several years of experience looking for a good surveillance system, this is still kind of a newbie question, since I'm not an expert in any aspect. So could I get your ideas what kind of system you would recommend for me? I have a warehouse/garage that is used by a...

I've been running my cameras for over six months. All of my cameras had english menus. After my computer rebooted last week, one of my cameras change to Chinese menus. Why would it change on its own after working for months in english? I updated firmware to 5.2 thinking it would fix the issue...

First off guys I really appreciate the help and expertise, another tip of the cap to Milkisbad... awesome cameras + great service. Background: I do IT work so i'm not totally clueless, just enough to be dangerous :). I got an opportunity to setup a security camera system at a fairly large...

Several years ago we set up several cameras and Blue Iris at our cabin. With weather running about 10 degree Fahrenheit our IR camera on the front deck showed dozens of "things" flying about. Looking out the window, ah no snow, no wind, nothing! But on the monitor there they were...To this day...

Hi all... I recently acquired BI - have successfully connected several newer Zmodo 720P cameras. But I have several older cameras - ZMD-ISV-BFS23NM. Depending on camera configuration, I either get "no signal" or refused connection. Any suggestions on how to connect these older cameras...
