I have had BI for about 2 years. All cams were wireless Wansview cameras (which I like and never had issues with). Running all 9 cams wireless, I had to drop resolution. I finally got around to hardwiring all the cams and now need to proceed to my next step. I am fairly new to Automation and...

Just an update. All my cameras were wireless. I wired in one camera and the reliability of all of them has increased tremendously.

Some added info... I have the BI service running as a local admin. I got the script to kick off, however..... In the watchdog tab, I can set the timeout period for 120 seconds and put to fire the script off after 2 timeouts. The script will fire in 120 seconds. The log never shows and increase...

It is very sporadic. I have some devices that crash immediately upon opening, repeat 4 times and it fires up....

Looks as if the video freezes without notification of connection loss. I switched to channel 2 of my cams, which is a much reduced bitrate and everything seems to be stable. I am still not sure why the web interface for the cams stay up and running at higher resolutions and BI craps out, but...

I am trying to run the watchdog in BI to do the following: after 5 timeouts (set to 60 seconds per timeout) - Restart camera after 10 timeouts - Reboot camera, if possible after 15 timeouts, execute script to reboot server. I have everything set up, what I believe to be correct, but upon...

Oh, and I turned on keep alives for the main instance of each camera, not all of them. I have duplicates (or triplicates) of each cam. The keep alives should only need to go to the main instance, this way I am not flooding the camera multiple times. That's my logic anyway.

Not quite sure... yet ;-). I believe the rtsp keep alives identify when loss of signal occurs. I had a few cams freeze (in BI only) and would have never known without the timestamp. I turned it back on to see what I get. In any event, rebooting my server resolves the issue 100% of the time. If...

I have attempted, on 12 android devices, to keep it running all night on my nightstand. I also have tablets mounted at each door entry for monitoring. In every case i have enabled dev options to keep from sleeping while charging. About 98% of the time, the app crashed to the desktop by morning...

Just wanted to post some information about an 18 month issue I've had which seems resolved. I have 9 Wansview cams, 3 models, the k1, q1 ptz, and outdoor (k3 i think). I know some have do not like them, but they have great quality and reliability for the price. i have them all wireless (again, i...

i most definitely concur

I think i know what you're getting at, but your engrish seems a little broken today! just re-read your response, takes some interpretation ;-)

Is there any way to set zones so two zones need to be active to trigger? For example I have a horizontal line at 2ft and 5ft., when someone walks it triggers, but light or shadows on only one zone does not trigger it. It seems if i put AB either zone triggers. If I put "A+B", it behaves like...

To add, it appears as if it is now overwriting older files when it gets to that 30gb threshold. However, it is writing to a 1tb drive.

My install of BI was recording to the system drive, which I only had 30gb of the SSD available. The bottom of the console would read, for example, clips: 4,000 files 28gb/30gb. I added a secondary internal drive, routed the DB, log, clips, etc (everything in the C:\Blueiris folder to...
