Same to you, @nejakejnick

Hi @Ben Coray Any time Jpeg streams are fast but H.264 streams are slow, the likely culprit is internet security software of some kind (most likely on the devices you open UI3 on) intercepting your web traffic to scan for viruses. Try excluding your Blue Iris address from all such software...

This is great because I don't have to check manually for a BI update every day now!!

I am not really sure. I know Hikvision cameras have a decent ability to upload snapshots to FTP on an interval, but I don't think Dahua does. I have always just used Blue Iris to upload snapshots to FTP.

With all the emphasis everyone is putting on "AI" features these days, they should just set up cameras to call the police the moment someone walks into the scene with their pants this low.

There's also the issue that Blue Iris is so loaded with features that "pausing" doesn't have just one meaning in Blue Iris. So just adding a "Paused" label might not be enough. Since forever ago, "pausing" a camera meant turning off its motion detection for a period of time (right-click a...

I believe someone in another thread suggested putting a big "Paused" label in front of each camera. Of course, the Blue Iris developer doesn't read forums, so any suggestions like this would need to be emailed to Blue Iris support.

I agree, something should change, because it is too easy to hit by accident and by the time you've noticed the effect, it is long-gone from your mind.

Hi @ptzguy On the rightmost edge of the toolbar above the cameras, there is a pause button. You likely clicked it by accident. You are not the first, nor the last to encounter this!! Brian

Nice. It really is amazing how far IP cameras have come in just the last few years!

What @SouthernYankee and @pmcross is trying to say is you need to open Windows' Service control panel, find Blue Iris in the list of services, and change it to run as a user that has read and write permission on your NAS. No need to change any file systems.

Try stopping the blue iris service, then run the update file.

You would think it was daylight out there. Almost. IPC-HFW4239T-ASE (Auto exposure) IPC-HFW4239T-ASE (tuned for long exposure) IPC-HFW1831E (tuned for long exposure)

The wifi built in to cameras is often pretty trashy, only supporting 802.11G or N on 2.4 GHz, and having a poor chipset and antenna, so you can expect it to take a lot of airtime to transmit its video stream to the access point. Then, of course, if you are viewing with a device also on wifi...

I imagine they racked up a lot of criminal charges during the pursuit too.
