    No Amcrest Driver for Ip5m-b1186ew in Blue Iris 5.5.3.7

    FWIW, i just loaded a couple of these. BI would see them but not display video. Dropped the camera's resolution in the cam's web interface down a notch, and now it's working. go figure ¯\(ツ)/¯

    older dual 2450 xeon rack server or newer tower w/ i7 CPU for new BI server?

    Sorry, not following. It's Blue Iris connecting directly to a single camera, not seeing anything about substream options in camera settings or BI settings.

    older dual 2450 xeon rack server or newer tower w/ i7 CPU for new BI server?

    Ah, got it. Thanks. I should be running about 225 MP/s. though my Samsung/Wisenet cameras are stuck at 1 FPS, so my actual MP/s is closer to 150. off topic, but any idea why a samsung/wisenet camera direct view would be 5 fps, but BI only shows 1 fps?

    Samsung QND-7030R direct view 10 fps, Blue Iris displays 1fps

    Samsung QND-7030R, direct view is 10 fps, but Blue Iris displays 1fps and delayed a second or two. Any ideas? i7-4770, 16GB, EVO SSD, Win10.

    older dual 2450 xeon rack server or newer tower w/ i7 CPU for new BI server?

    Hi @mat200, No, the Xeons do not have QSV. They are E5-2450L CPU's. I was wondering if all those those cores (16 cores total on a dual core system) would be better than 4 QSV enabled cores on an i7-4770-based workstation.

    older dual 2450 xeon rack server or newer tower w/ i7 CPU for new BI server?

    Good morning! Looking at replacing an aging BI server running a quad core non-HT Xeon CPU (RAID-5 & 32 GB RAM). Wondering if an older dual 2450 Xeon rack server (also RAID and 32 GB) or newer tower w/ i7 CPU, 32 GB, O/S on SSD and storage on a platter drive) would be a better system to manage...

    FPS issue on some cameras, others are fine

    Happy day after! As a test I changed one of the cameras to a new IP address so nothing else is getting thrown in the mix, added to BI from scratch, made sure H.264 is default, still seems to be pulling JPEG. Am I missing something obvious? Hope you all had a great holiday, Mike

    FPS issue on some cameras, others are fine

    I noticed that, too. My GM still has Blue Iris on his system - doesn't care for the web server version - and some of his cameras are still setup to grab the MJPEG. Would that setting pull the whole camera down to the abysmal FPS rates I'm seeing?

    Opinions on Ubiquiti (Unifi) Cameras?

    because my samsungs are running 1-2 FPS, and Ubiquiti's network hardware has impressed me. Do you have a camera brand/model to recommend?

    Opinions on Ubiquiti (Unifi) Cameras?

    sorry, tagged this comment so you'd see it . . . Tom, what kind of frame rates are you seeing with Blue Iris and the UVC G3 cameras? I'm running in issues with several Samsung L60xx series cams running 1-2 FPS while 15 year-old Sony PTZ models cheerfully run at 15 FPS in Blue Iris on the same...

    FPS issue on some cameras, others are fine

    more info . . . ran a test on our main server with two E5-2450 Xeon 8 core CPUs, frame rate is still around 1-2 FPS Time to go hit a glass of Christmas Scotch and think this one over . . . Cheers :rofl:

    FPS issue on some cameras, others are fine

    Update: After a bit of trial and error, I found that "Generic" and RTSP H.264 . . . " gets me 2 FPS, so I'm over the 1 FPS wall I seemed to have earlier, but it still seems to me that getting to 4-5 FPS per camera should be doable on this machine with capable CPU and plenty of memory. Two...

    FPS issue on some cameras, others are fine

    Greetings! Running BI on old server (Xeon X3430, 32 GB ram, O/S on RAID-6, storage on 4TB WD Purple), having some issues with FPS Server is running 25-30% CPU utilization, 10-15% memory in use Server has no other workloads in the office, it's strictly for BI use. Sony SNC-RX550N - FPS is...
