    CPU suggestion?

    This reminded me to report back! I got most everything up and running on a HP Z2 G5 SFF Workstation Core i7-10700 2.9GHz 32GB RAM following the tutorial i linked in the original post. Miraculously, despite it being well below the specs for 17 4k cameras it seems to handle all of them and the...

    Video stuttering, hardware probably underpowered but want to confirm configuration is fine

    OH!!! that might be it! 3 years ago I was using a mac. maybe the Microsoft rdp for mac isn't affected by it. I'm gonna go with that cause it's making me feel crazy if it was stuttering before and I just don't remember

    knowledge is always in the last place you look:) THANK you. Unfortunately for me I've NEVER had a monitor attached so it's somewhat unnerving I never noticed the issue before. Oh well, onward and upward. Thanks all

    Video stuttering, hardware probably underpowered but want to confirm configuration is fine

    yup, my bad. if you look at my original post, it was anything but light on details. Just an oversight on my part. I DID mention that the stutter seemed to be a 4 second delay, which now seems like a chechov's gun:)

    Yes, I'm sorry, it never occurred to me that the target PC would even be aware it was being remotely accessed. I'm still a little fuzzy on why 5-sec is the default, but happy to be back on track. At least i learned a lot on the way:)

    Video stuttering, hardware probably underpowered but want to confirm configuration is fine

    That option was set to 5-second update, which is def what i was experiencing. I changed it to unrestricted and it seems to have solved my issue. Either I remembered wrong and it never worked or the option reset when I updated Blue Iris. I'm guessing good money is on the former. So what is the...

    I will report back with the status of that option when I can access my configuration.

    Video stuttering, hardware probably underpowered but want to confirm configuration is fine

    I am but I ALWAYS was. My Blue Iris PC doesn't even have a monitor. To be clear, and this is a topic i haven't gotten to in the help file so apologies if i'm not talking about this right, I am RDPing into the windows machine that is locally running blue iris, not remotely connecting to a blue...

    Video stuttering, hardware probably underpowered but want to confirm configuration is fine

    Well....1) no section was actually advised, I was told to "think about what search terms I'd need", 2) because another suggestion was to simply "spend an afternoon with the help file" which really didn't seem like a terrible idea 3) because my phone had an incident at the pool yesterday so I...

    Video stuttering, hardware probably underpowered but want to confirm configuration is fine

    i'm about 20% of the way through the Help file, and I'm curious, does the wisdom of the crowd think it would probably be best for me to just reset my Blue Iris instance to factory default? I'm strongly leaning this way...

    Video stuttering, hardware probably underpowered but want to confirm configuration is fine

    Thanks for checking. I was actually curious about that and hadn't thought to ping TO the cameras yet (did a bunch of testing of the BI PC when setting up the VLAN. glad they are alright. I also agree that the time stamps are most likely ok (they looked ok). Currently reading the the readme...

    Video stuttering, hardware probably underpowered but want to confirm configuration is fine

    Sure. Seems fine pinging from the Blue Iris PC to the cameras but maybe i'm doing it wrong or missing something? Interesting suggestion. I actually removed that overlay cause I was worried it would slow down the stream. I can re-enable it and see if it syncs up with the times. thanks for the...

    Video stuttering, hardware probably underpowered but want to confirm configuration is fine

    That's wonderful to hear! Which page? what search term? I'm not trying to be flippant but more specificity stops me asking dumb questions, faster. Absolutely, I will do it tomorrow. Genuinely can't thank everyone enough for their help!

    Video stuttering, hardware probably underpowered but want to confirm configuration is fine

    crap ok, so what do I do now to reverse my boneheadedness? I have this on my C:/ but during this reset up process i briefly redefined it on the HDD before realizing that was a bad idea and moved it back to the c/sdd drive Yes, but all of this is a remnant of the previous installation. I...

    Video stuttering, hardware probably underpowered but want to confirm configuration is fine

    Boy this thread really escalated while I was AFK. Let me try to address everything I missed: I did a bunch of googling with the terms you said but mostly it seemed to be steering me to remote set up. I did do this though: I'm also fine disabling the Wndows Firewall for testing purposes...
