    firmware updates and panning questions with the IPC-T5442T-ZE

    I got a IPC-T5442T-ZE to try out and am having a couple of issues. First, I thought firmware updates would be on the dahua site (DahuaWiki). I don't see 5442 in the list. Do I need to look under a different name? The other issue is that going through the camera directly to set it up, I can't...

    can't connect through blue iris android app to router's vpn

    I saw your guys' messages, connected to the vpn, went to the blue iris app and with a blank wan address tried connecting. It connected instantly. Then I tried putting in invalid addresses and ports in the wan box and it still worked, so it appears the wan box is ignored when connecting through...

    can't connect through blue iris android app to router's vpn

    I set up a vpn on my router. I copied the client.ovpn to my android device. I installed OpenVPN on my android device, which is currently running and connected to my router. But, when I turn off wifi on my android device I can not connect to blue iris. My lan address in the blue iris app has...

    i5-3470 or i5-3570 worth trying with blue iris?

    That one was gone when I looked, but I did end up finding a Dell OptiPlex 3010 Core i5-3470 @ 3.2 GHz 8GB 500GB Windows 8 for $125. I grabbed that one. I figure worst case, it's an upgrade over my desktop I have now, so even if it doesn't handle blue iris well enough, I've got a better...

    i5-3470 or i5-3570 worth trying with blue iris?

    Ha. Yeah, I'm using a laptop right now. I know, how embarrassing. I've been using it for around 9 months. But, I'm taking a step in the right direction now ... Anyway, I have read through that post you linked. I get the gist of it. It recommends at least i5-6400 as far as i5s. I...

    i5-3470 or i5-3570 worth trying with blue iris?

    In light of some recent issues I've had with my current computer running blue iris, I've been considering upgrading. I'm not trying to cheap out here, but if I don't need to spend more, I don't want to. If I have to, I will, but I figured I'd check with you guys first on what I'm considering...

    blue iris suddenly a memory hog and at 100% cpu usage

    I'm testing out a different graphics driver right now. So far, after about 20 minutes, it's acting like it did before these problems started. But, for 2 days it looked like the problem was gone before. So, I'll be back if the problem comes back, or after a few days of it running. Either way...

    blue iris suddenly a memory hog and at 100% cpu usage

    I am happy to give details. I have spent a lot of time trying to figure out why blue iris quit working properly. That's why I'm here. I have four of the same camera - Hikvision 2042. The fifth one is a Dahua ... I'm not certain of the model, and am not in a place where I can check at the...

    blue iris suddenly a memory hog and at 100% cpu usage

    I did the upgrade to Windows 10. I then used the media creation tool to install a clean version of windows 10. I then installed blue iris. I have had for the last 9 months or so, 5 cameras setup in blue iris. While I was adding the 5th one, the cpu hit 100%. I guess I'm back to downgrading...

    blue iris suddenly a memory hog and at 100% cpu usage

    1. In blue iris, I have "no" selected, or whatever the exact wording is. I was referring to my graphics driver options. There was no option for hardware acceleration. But, yes, I have it turned off in the Blue Iris settings. 2. A clean install is possible ... I'm not familiar with the MS...

    blue iris suddenly a memory hog and at 100% cpu usage

    So I've searched and read many posts about this memory leak issue. The most common solutions/proposed solutions are ... 1. Turn off hardware acceleration. That's not even an option on my computer, so nothing to turn off. 2. Roll back the graphics driver. Driver version was - 10.18.10.3345 had...
