    Qcam IP3M952E Video Glitch

    So since my last post the camera hasn't had any glitching despite the fact it has been in an area with sudden changes from dark to light and sudden movement from time to time. The only time it glitched was 1) when I first plugged it in and 2) when I turned off the light and it switched to...

    Qcam IP3M952E Video Glitch

    Alas, I was able to force a glitch by turning lights on and off. It is definitely not happening as often as before but I still wouldn't want to hang this camera in a location where I wanted dependable video. I don't believe this has anything to do with cable runs/connectors since the video...

    Qcam IP3M952E Video Glitch

    It may have been wishful thinking on my part. I had the camera running for awhile without issues but it was right next to my BI computer. I have moved it to a further location (still inside) and immediately saw it glitch out. I'll let it run overnight to see if it continues to happen.

    4770k Heat / Fan RPM

    As quickly as the ramp up appeared it is now gone. I suspect the original reason for it occurring was the switch to integrated graphics which demanded more of the CPU and thus the CPU Fan. I disabled it in bios but from my recollection it doesn't appear to have taken effect until after a...

    4770k Heat / Fan RPM

    I will try dusting :) It is homebuilt with Intel stock cooler / paste. The thing is before I turned the integrated graphics on the CPU fan would ramp up but not in the manner it does now where it is constantly altering it's speed. It is that variability and it's associated noise that is kind...

    4770k Heat / Fan RPM

    I had something strange happen today. Like others I tried to use the Intel hardware acceleration feature but ran into high CPU utilization, high temps and significantly increased CPU fan RPMs. (yes - I removed my discrete graphics card prior to attempting this). So I put my Nividia GTX 750...

    Qcam IP3M952E Video Glitch

    Just a quick note. I provided Ken access to my QCAM and it appears he modified something in the 4.2.9.1 release to fix whatever incompatibility was going on. He now has a distinct selection for this QCAM model and while the settings look like what I had previously using other cams I am no...

    Qcam IP3M952E Video Glitch

    Chabon thanks for confirming I'm not the only one with the issue. I wish I saved the packaging so I could send it back. I've tried other techniques such as choosing lower frame rates / resolutions etc.. and while they provide some relief the problem isn't gone entirely. I've been in touch...

    Qcam IP3M952E Video Glitch

    The options are very limited. There is bitrate, fps and resolution. Nothing regarding encoding and nothing regarding iframes. This camera is really marketed towards the out of the box NVRs that QCAM (Amcrest) sell. I don't think would care if it didn't work with BlueIris which is a pity...

    Qcam IP3M952E Video Glitch

    Sadly the camera interface doesn't offer the iframe setting. If logging in via browser it requires the use of an NPClientDVR plugin which is virtually the same as the fat SmartClient application. You can change the bitrate but not much more. The amount of glitching is picking up again this...

    Qcam IP3M952E Video Glitch

    Thanks, it may have been wishful thinking that my other changed helped things :) I did see an additional recording of corrupt data earlier today which was a whole lot better than the every few minutes I was getting overnight. I wonder if cold air is playing a role but then again I'd expect to...

    Qcam IP3M952E Video Glitch

    Thank you for the prompt response. I switched the network settings to Dahua Mainstream RTSP as suggested in your note and so far so good (I did not try 1 or 2). I had to make two tweaks in case anyone else is interested. The first was to set the Discovery Port to 9000 (which was QCAM default)...

    Qcam IP3M952E Video Glitch

    I'm running BlueIris with a mixture of IP Cameras, 2 POE, 2 wifi and 1 webcam. Everything is working fine except for the Qcam IP3M952E which is 98% operational. Every now and then the Qcam "glitches" with a thin horizontal band of multi color artifacts spanning the entire image from left to...
