    Blue Iris UI3

    I have the same problem. My Stats for nerds shows Video Bit Rate in the low Kbps. Any word from BI support?

    Hikvision 2335 parameter error when trying to change image settings

    Install iVMS-4200. Use "Remote Configuration" and change settings there.

    Blue Iris UI3

    Woohoo! Solved. In my thirty years with computers I didn't think of that. LOL. I just assumed it was a fixed dropdown. If I set the Specify frame size to the native resolution of my monitor (2560 x 1440) then is pixel perfect. However, I do notice a lot higher CPU usage once pass the highest...

    Blue Iris UI3

    Okay, I found Stats for nerds. Right-click viewing area brings up menu. First image is of all cameras and second one is a Hikvision 4K camera.

    Blue Iris UI3

    Any adjustments I made to Streaming 0/1/2 then "Configure" button had no effect. Oddly, I cannot set Bitrate (kbps) above "512". Your post #2502 helped. Every changes I made there like changing the Default max FPS took immediate effect. Checking the Specify frame size and changing the various...

    Blue Iris UI3

    How do I get sharp video when viewing 'All cameras' live video in UI3? It looks jagged and frame rate is low like 5 fps. If I select an individual camera, it zooms in full screen, then quality looks great.

    I need to verify the individual with his/her insurance card live. I was thinking of they walk up to the camera and present insurance card standing 1-2 feet back. What solutions do you have in mind for this?

    Thanks for quick reply. I was afraid of that. I have a NC328-XDZ with zoom and focus controls that I think will work. I will give that a try.

    Unclear text

    I have some Hikvision DS-2CD2332-I and DS-2CD2142FWD-I cameras that I am satisfied with the clarity of viewing objects at a distance (like landscapes, cars, houses, in a room, people, etc.). However, if I try to aim it at an insurance card, the text are barely readable. I tried tweaking settings...

    Use IP Camera for HD Video Calls?

    Want to do HD quality video phone calling/conference using an IP camera. Doable? I had the Nucleus Anywhere. Good product specifically made for video phone and intercom. It was easy to use but has unacceptable audio and low resolution video. To rule out the network, I did the testing on a wired...

    How can I put Hikvision firmware on rebranded NVR?

    Tried yours, did not work again. I am thinking... Is it my setup, copy of TFTP, or OEM NVR blocking updates/not working? I posted in this thread NOT getting final "Device [192.0.0.64] system update completed!" confirmation. Could this be the problem? See attached screenshots.

    How can I put Hikvision firmware on rebranded NVR?

    Tried it. Didn't work. I'm giving up looking for a firmware update and will use the device as-is. Thanks!
