I've had this app both on Android and IOS. On IOS I found no problems, however on Android I've had constant problems with the cameras not refreshing. In many cases, the app loads and the camera views remain blank. It's not the connection as on the same device, UI3 on the web works perfectly fine...

Pity as it would have saved many hours of work this weekend! I wonder if there is any third party software out there into which you could feed an exported clip and let it do the analysis. It is a shame that BI can't handle it though since all the tech is in there.

Hello, I am wondering whether anybody can help me on this. I should be researching on my own but I have a critical event I need to find from many hours of footage which will take me forever unless I find a good solution quickly. I had a camera for which the original motion detector settings...

Well, one more observation from my side: I now have dedicated a WIFI router for my WIFI cameras - 4 out of 9. Even then, the number of dropouts was very high for all four. I've taken the plunge and wired 2 of the 4 and the number of dropouts drastically decreased - not only for the wired ones...

Hello, I am also struggling with figuring out why i have these exclamation marks on some of my cameras. I actually have the same model of camera and have cross checked everything for each camera (camera-side) and they are exactly the same. Yet one of them shows the warning and the other doesn't...

Thank you all for your help with this one. I think i've progressed another big step with my setup by moving everything into a subnet. I am just amazed at how the streams were bringing my router to its knees. As a summary: I set up an unused router I had available and rewired all my wired...

@looney2ns - thanks your message - just to be clear, as this gets a bit complicated for me : If I physically connect everything to the same "Box" then that Box to my main router, that's ok? Or should i go for a separate subnet? I know it's not ideal but really I do have 3 cameras where I simply...

Thanks for that pointer. Very interesting. I must admit that one thing I omitted from mentioning (only because it was still half an idea formed in my head :)) is that in these COVID times I'm tending to have a lot of Zoom/Teams meetings and was starting to wonder whether this was contributing to...

Thanks for the feedback. Indeed all optimizations feasible are implemented. I do not have an external Graphics card so acceleration is switched on but for Intel. Previously to switching on Substreams, i'd frequently get a CPU leak in that it would slowly rise up to 100%, but this stopped when I...

Thanks for your quick reply. Prior to setting up substreams I was experiencing 50-60% usage but I never had this issue (granted.. I had other issues which perhaps superseded this one!) The CPU is an I7 7200 / 2.5GHz (Kaby Lake) with 32GB Ram Attached is the screenshot as requested.

Hello, I have a setup with 9 cams - mixed brands, mixed resolutions. A few months ago I had an issue with resources, which I have resolved successfully through the use of substreams. This resulted in 15-20 % CPU usage, and it's very stable and responsive, BUT, from time to time, I start...

..and you were right :) So happy with the new setup :) Everything is 100X more responsive. Thanks again!

ok... I get it now ! I just configured substreams and my CPU is averaging 15%.... !!!! thank you very much for all your recommendations on this!

A quick question: This wiki mentions that if quicksync is working, one should see "#" next to megapixels. I think I have it working, but here I see an "I" (presumably for "I"ntel), while cameras with no acceleration is showing "-". Do I have quicksync working?

That's interesting, thanks. In fact, power consumption (or rather the lack thereof) is also in my list of priorities. If I find it throttles CPU and it's showing 90% and it's still useable, while saving power, to me that's better than having a monster running at 35% and consuming 4X the power...
