Guys, I have been monitoring wireshark and the re-connect issue has not gone away. Today I started to reset my main camera and only test this one. I captured some data and maybe you see something that is unusual. I noticed the black blocks earlier when I had a lot more cameras on there and had...

One more piece of info: I completed a new install of Windows 10, reinstalled BlueIris and still have this happening. I then installed Wireshark but this is a lot of stuff to take in. I monitored the NIC interface and see a lot of things happening. I would appreciate a few directions on what I...

Great advice guys. I start getting things under control on the network side. What I am baffled with is still the camera side. Status today: Cameras are on a separate network now, only BlueIris is on there with the original NIC. I also added a wireless NIC to the computer that is currently...

I figure I give you and update as I go. I realized this morning that the telephone cable that I had run to the workshop was actually a Cat5. So I repurposed the telephone line and now have no landline anymore in the shop. No loss as everyone uses cell phones anyway. With that line freed up I...

Thanks @samplenhold - much appreciated. I just realized that you are in Spring - greetings from Huffman, TX.

@samplenhold - thanks, that makes a lot of sense and is probably the most secure setup. But it requires me to run a second Cat5 line to the workshop because I still have this one camera at the house that I need to tie in. That is not going to happen. They said, use the biggest empty pipe you can...

@samplenhold - I am not sure if I understand. The router has the DHCP and I thought I need this to arrange the traffic. I also believe that I need this because of the following: House has the modem and the Router. From there I basically have two branches - one in the house and one that goes to...

Guys, I have a problem. It appears that 7 of 11 cameras went bad within a day. They are all different (brand, models) and have been purchased over various time periods. They are all Dahua and HikVision. The oldest is a cheap Dahua, 10 years old and as I got more and more into this I did spend...

ziomek, this worked now! For some reason I always pressed the rest button when it was powered on or just a moment after. This time I followed your process and it worked - thanks. Everything went back to default.

I am seeking your help - my camera apparently is from newegg and therefore deemed not supported by HikVision USA. I had my camera running for a while and accessible in a browser and in Blue Iris. All worked fine. Suddenly I could not access this anymore, btw - i have no port forwarding. Some...

@[3:@fenderman] - I followed your recommendation and got a ProDesk 600 G2. You have been recommending this one a lot. All worked fine but a power surge took out my PSU. I was wondering if you ever had to replace a PSU for them and what you choose?

@fenderman I unchecked the "limit clip age" (it was set at 14 days) and the size limit was at 20GB. What should I set it to? Any recommendation or is just dependent on what I want to keep? 20GB stored one day so I try to set it 140GB and see what happens. Version is: 4.4.5.3 x64

Hi everyone! I am using a HP EliteDesk 800 G2 - Core i7-6700 with Windows 7 and I am quite happy so far. I am running the BI demo and with my 7 cameras I am at 24% CPU. I have a mix of Dahua's and Hik's at various MP's and decided to have 4 constantly recording at higher FPS and the other...

This is another reason why I want a trigger function so that the last video before an alarm can go into a cloud. The old NVR will still record hidden somewhere in a garage. Recording on the NVR work still well with this little thing (nelly 8 channel) but the interaction for ipad and internet has...

Great discussion and help here....ethernet.... how would this work? My driveway probe is wired to the ELK so I get already a security alert and sound played by the ELK. Because the ELK is connected over the ethernet interface (M1XEP) with the ISY I get automation action when the driveway probe...
