    Swapped computers, HUGE kudos to BI for making it seamless..

    This forum has been hugely valuable in getting my system up and running and keeping it going. :) It has been a fun hobby.

    Swapped computers, HUGE kudos to BI for making it seamless..

    I just swapped from an old i5 machine to an i7-6700k machine with a Gforce 1080 video card. I wanted to beef up the hardware for my 12 camera system so I can add some AI goodness. The BlueIris export/import ability literally made this a 5 minute process. Disabled the license on the old...

    BlueIris memory leak?

    My fresh install has been running at 38% ram consumption for over a week now. I'll post the driver versions when I get home.

    Windows 10 runs out of RAM

    Sure, its certainly _something_ I did on the machine that got it into that state. However, despite 20 years of software development experience I was unable to diagnose the cause of the memory leak other than "there's memory leaking". I probably could have figured it out if I had persisted...

    Windows 10 runs out of RAM

    Yet when things go wrong with Windows the solution is always, "reinstall a fresh copy". Try as I might there was no good way to diagnose the source of the leak despite hours spend researching and many tools. Windows and BI are both running on an SSD; recordings go to a WD Purple drive. I...

    BlueIris memory leak?

    I'm using Intel only for acceleration. I just wiped the PC and put in a fresh copy of Windows. We will see if that solves the problem.

    Windows 10 runs out of RAM

    Sadly everything on the PC seems faster now that I've wiped it and started fresh. Of course for windows I guess this is just par for the course. I use linux at work day in and out and haven't restarted my machine in ages; haven't re-installed the OS since I got the PC a few years ago.

    Windows 10 runs out of RAM

    I finally got around to using the media creation tool to wipe the machine I'm using and re-install BlueIris. Kudos to BlueIris for the awesome export/import. It was easy to get things back up and running on the newly wiped computer. I only have to reconfigure the volumes because Windows...

    Windows 10 runs out of RAM

    I used the media creation tool since the PC has no CD/DVD drive in it. I agree something had to have changed to cause the problem. :) I only wish I knew what that was so I could avoid the issue in the future.

    Windows 10 runs out of RAM

    Yes, I did activate all the hardware acceleration I could. I will give that a shot as well. It would be nice to be able to root cause the problem so I know what caused it, other than the usual, "Windows bloated itself up with crap and slowed down.". :)

    Windows 10 runs out of RAM

    This was a clean install of Windows 10 back when I first set this machine up a couple years back; I wiped the machine completely and started fresh when I re-purposed for Blue Iris. However, its worth a shot.

    Is NVIDIA hardware acceleration more reliable than Intel?

    Yeah, none of the known drivers worked from the wiki. I did see someone else having issues related to Windows installing generic drivers in place of things like the SATA and chipset drivers, so I have already replaced those with their appropriate equivalents. However 8 hours of runtime has...

    Windows 10 runs out of RAM

    Suppose its worth a shot as an intermediate step. Hah, if it wasn't for Blue Iris I would not be using Windows at all any more. I absolutely DESPISE how a fresh OS install always fixes things like this. I'm still thinking I'd like a new PC for BI since I do want to get a Tensorflow model...

    Windows 10 runs out of RAM

    Its probably time to toss this PC in the trash. Time to re-purpose my Intel i7 desktop for Blue Iris so I have a good excuse to build a new desktop for daily use.

    Windows 10 runs out of RAM

    Its definitely not Blue Iris; performance monitor shows it consistently using ~3.7GB of ram. I'm starting to suspect its not the video drivers and its some other driver or Windows issue. This machine ran Blue Iris for almost a year without a reboot up until recently.

    Is NVIDIA hardware acceleration more reliable than Intel?

    I'm having TERRIBLE troubles with memory leaks due to the Intel drivers. My BI system is down to 1-2 days uptime before the system memory consumption goes to 100% and the machine locks up (its not BI's process; its completely unattributable to any process, so I assume its the intel drivers)...

    Windows 10 runs out of RAM

    FYI the following two firmwares are bunk; still getting terrible memory leaks which cripple the system in 1-2 days: 4th Generation (Haswell) / 5th Generation (Broadwell) Driver Version 15.40.41.5058 is known to be NOT good: <Download Intel® Graphics Driver for Windows* [15.40]> Driver Version...

    BlueIris memory leak?

    BTW, I have been having severe memory leak issues on my Haswell CPU; I've tried both of the versions specified below and end up with a severe memory leak which gobbles up 16GB ram within 1-2 days: 4th Generation (Haswell) / 5th Generation (Broadwell) Driver Version 15.40.41.5058 is known to be...

    Windows 10 runs out of RAM

    Hmm, looks like the latest known stable Intel drivers are even worse; went from 40% to 67% CPU usage overnight. I guess I'll have to keep on trying other versions. :) I've been considering a new BI build; I wonder if using the NVIDIA decoders would be more reliable... Oh, and I considered...

    Windows 10 runs out of RAM

    Chrome was open when I took the screenshot because I was in the midst of searching for "solving Windows 10 memory leaks". :) Otherwise its just BI running. I have read the post listed above; it mentions downgrading versions of the video drivers to certain well known states. Looks like the...

    I'll give that a try thanks.

    Windows 10 runs out of RAM

    Looks like the problem is back. BlueIris is only using 4GB,and the rest don't add up to the fact that most of the system memory is in use. Rammap seems to indicate its the non-paged pool, which from what I can determine means leaked memory; can't find a way to attribute this thus far...

    IPC-HDW5231R-ZE from Amazon

    Haha, at this point with 5 cameras out front I think my neighbors are going to start to wonder (even more). Although I do notice one neighbor always parks his car in front my house. I'll bet I know why. I think before I add more cameras its finally time to sit down and figure out Tensorflow...

    IPC-HDW5231R-ZE from Amazon

    I recently bought an IPC-HDW5231R-ZE from Amazon; I presume its sold by Andy as its from the EmpireTech store. Was I surprised when I navigated to the camera's IP from Chrome on my phone and the previews and everything work! Guess the firmware has been updated on these cameras! In any case...

    Just trying to open his beer...

    I caught a strange one the other week; a car pulled up front and a guy stumbled out the passenger side. He bent over and smacked something against the curb at all of the seams. Turns out he was trying to open his beer by hitting it on the concrete seams, which he eventually succeeded at and...

    Windows 10 runs out of RAM

    It appears that by continually observing memory usage with Performance Monitor I'm no longer encountering this leak... Of course. Haha.

    Haswell isn't listed. I'll have to experiment and see if I can roll this back.
