    Dahua Cameras hacked

    I think I am so misinformed it's pathetic I have used port forwarding alone with local PC with PC not on. I think you are alluding to letting BI being always on doing the work BI has for each camera its WAN address and ports used on router I was always afraid that without port forwarding and...

    DH-IPC-HDW2831T-AS-S2 vs DH-IPC-HDW2831TP-AS-S2 and Firmware

    Hey, guys As the post thread lists, what are the differences in the Two Dahua 8mp tourette cameras except one says 2831t vs 2831tp? IS it OEM, the Box it came in (TP version) has Dahua written all over it? For the life of me I wanted to locate the firmware since the date stamp on the box was...

    Dahua Cameras in BI 5 only seen on LAN not WAN

    I do not have the skillset to do anything else but port forwarding using the Dahua camera in BI plugging in the WAN address. If I plugged in the 192.168.1....... LAN I would not be available to see these cams remotely on a remote location with another BI setup only WAN seems to allow me to...

    Random, I mean random spikes on CPU usage

    Everything works well, except when i do a timelapse or a straight continuous record. It records at the substream rez even if I untick or tick on record page record dual streams if possible. The only way to record high rez is unticking substream entirely Not a biggie but tis there a workaround?

    Random, I mean random spikes on CPU usage

    Use the remote connect feature of Blue Iris to connect to another Blue Iris remote Location. Wouldn't that mean keeping TWO instances at two locations On for this to work?

    Random, I mean random spikes on CPU usage

    I have 3 physical locations running blue iris at each of these locations The IP addresses (WAN) are different at all locations but to add cameras I use the WAN from those locations and vice versa I honestly never knew of any method other than port forwarding If i use for example 192.168.1.243...

    Random, I mean random spikes on CPU usage

    When setting up a batch of cameras at a new location ( like a new house I bought) I use the WAN address in each of the cam setups with 4 ports that I port forward ( like enclosed photo)
