    BI Console won't start

    I just rechecked, and the Everyone group still has Full Control to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Perspective Software\Blue Iris as per the BI user guide. And I have both an Admin account and a non-Admin user account created under BI Settings, Users I also temporarily disabled Windows Defender...

    BI Console won't start

    I guess I must be blind because I couldn't find 10 recent threads trying to start BlueIris.exe as a regular user. Can you point me to one of the other 10 threads with the actual solution. Are you saying this is somehow related to the Blue Iris User logon window prompt when you uncheck the...

    BI Console won't start

    I had BI 5.0.6.11 running as a service and was always able to start the non-admin console (BlueIris.exe) as a regular non-Win10-admin user since Dec 2019. Last month, I downloaded and upgraded to BI 5.2.6.5. After the upgrade, the console (BlueIris.exe) will not start as a non-Win10-admin...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    It's unfortunate the 101 wiki is not more clear and you spent extra time troubleshooting like I did. I already asked David to revise the 101 so that the solution to the 3 minute loss of signal issue can be found easier. The wiki only says blocking icmp causes the wifi to disconnect, which as...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    I never noticed this item in the 101 as the symptoms was not included with the tip in the 101. I was troubleshooting the exact same issue with my DB1 for the past month. While the DB1 never actually disconnected from the wifi, it would restart the RTSP stream every 3 minutes, which appears as...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    The SNR on my EAP120 shows: 46dB for the DB1 (which is about 13 feet away) 59dB for a Reolink RLC-410w (which is about 11 feet away, with no drops) 32dB for my phone that I placed near the DB (13 feet away) For the EAP, similar to UI and Meraki, the higher the SNR, the better. The signal...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    I only have one stream running off of the DB1 at any one time. I reflashed the same Hikvision FW onto the DB1 today and did a full reset (push button on DB1) and then adjusted the SSID and then the framerate and quality, but signal still dropping every 3 minutes so the reflash didn't make any...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Mechanical chime and a newly replaced 16vac 30va transformer to troubleshoot. I just tried using VLC and it stops receiving the stream after 3 minutes as well, so it doesn't appear to be a BI issue. It is like my DB1 closes and restarts the RTSP stream every 3 minutes. Might be a hardware...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    using a 16vac 30va transformer, wifi is stable and good signal. My other 3 wifi cams do not have any issues, only the DB1 cam is cycling every 3 minutes like clockwork.

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    What's the point of having a DB cam vs having a normal cam watching the front door instead, if you can't use any of the doorbell features.

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    I just reduced my bitrate down to 1024 in BC, and the bitrate in BI now drops down to 130.96 kB/s. But, BI is still losing signal from DB1 every 3 minutes for 6 seconds for my 9 minute test. My 3 other cameras don't have regular signal loss like my DB1.

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Thats weird, I wonder why my bitrate is double yours. Maybe, because you are receiving two separate streams in BI forcing the bitrate to be cut in half? I don't remember the default setting in batch configuration, but my settings for Main Stream are: Video Type: Video & Audio Bitrate Type...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    My DB1 shows a bitrate of 264 kB/s, which is twice your bitrate of 131.8 kB/s; same FPS/key. I guess you didn't increase the image size to 1536x2048, Full Frame rate using Batch Configuration for the main stream. So, maybe I am getting more dropouts due to the higher bitrate and have to tweak...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    The current EZVIZ app (for Android at least) allows you to bypass the cloud as well. There are 3 tabs at the bottom of the Android EZVIZ app: Cameras, Messages, and Profile. Click on the Profile icon, then select Function Settings. Scroll down to the bottom of the Function Settings, and you...
