    Your quick Fender! Light is green. Do you mean Profiles in the options? If yes, they are all defaults.

    Not recording

    For some reason on this past Sunday, BI no longer records. All cameras are working and triggering. I have not touched BI in a month or so. I leave it unattended for the most part, just happened to glance at it today and noticed. I did an update and now I am current but it's still no recording...

    Dedicated License Plate Cam project

    Just received and installed the Wright's lens. Nice improvement over the 12mm. Very easy upgrade. Hardest part is the focus, that being holding the camera in two halves while focusing and looking at the screen. Even that was easy. Took less then thirty minutes to complete. Well worth the $17 IMHO.

    Dedicated License Plate Cam project

    I ordered one lens from Wright but it's on B/O. No idea when it will arrive. Figured I try it for $17 and see how it goes. I will also move it to closer location to see how it works. I never thought about using these cameras for this task but this one is my extra and why not give it a shot...

    User Interface freezes & BI High Memory Usage

    For the better use of words to describe what I am seeing for the last few months. Daily, I am seeing my main user interface freezes but the clips are still being captured to the right. It appears that BI is still working but I can't interface with the individual cameras. I can however interface...

    Blue Iris Tools - Weather Overlay, Watchdog & more!

    I reinstalled the tools and for some reason, the email setup does not want to work. I tried various smtp gmail setups: smtp.gmail.com ports: 25,465,587 and smtp.gmail.com with ports 465 or 587. Confirmed user name and password were correct. Any suggestions?

    Review - TOP-201 Super Mini 720P HD IP-Cam (The Cheapest IP Cam So Far !!)

    Good morning Dave, Try Netscan (it's free) to scan your network. The camera might have a different default iP. I have found returns or defective cams seem to have this issue. Good luck!

    Lenovo ThinkServer TS140 CPU 100%

    It dawned on me that I was only making the changes in Blue Iris. When I made the similar changes that you recommended in each camera's setting, the CPU usage dropped to 48-52 (idle) and 55-58 (capturing on 3 or more cameras at the same time) WOW.... You made a HUGE difference on my CPU usage...

    Lenovo ThinkServer TS140 CPU 100%

    Here is a screen. Blue Iris is minimized, thus the CPU usage is down to 75% range. I only saw this error once... I powered cycled the box and I have not seen it again.

    Lenovo ThinkServer TS140 CPU 100%

    Greeting all, I have been limping along for the last year running Bi on my TS140 with my CPU almost always being maxed out. I added three of my four new 1MB 720P Hosafe cameras and my computer is now almost always maxed out unless I minimize Bi then the CPU drops to 90%. My Hikvision cams are...

    Review - TOP-201 Super Mini 720P HD IP-Cam (The Cheapest IP Cam So Far !!)

    The TOP-201 didn't see the IR light. They work marginal at best in low light. Very little detail. I'm still very impressed by the little camera!

    Review - TOP-201 Super Mini 720P HD IP-Cam (The Cheapest IP Cam So Far !!)

    I have one as well for watching my newly rescued dogs. Never thought I would care but it's a nice way to watch how they interact without me present. I was hoping the TOP-201 would work with my IR illuminator but no luck. It's great when their is light tho. I was thinking of trying one of the IR...

    IP Door Bell with Video & Two Way Audio

    As I have been researching, I'm trying to find out more about the Dahua Villa Outdoor System. Unfortunately Dahua's website does not provide (or at least what I could find) much information about the Villa system. Does anyone have experience with it and how it works in novice terms? It appears...

    IP Door Bell with Video & Two Way Audio

    Wish it would interact with BlueIris. Reading reviews on Amazon, seems it may have slight trigger issue. Overall it appears to a decent product.

    IP Door Bell with Video & Two Way Audio

    I am a novice and I don't even know if what I want exists for home use. Would I need an VOIP phone or can I talk through any of my computer/tablet/smart phone which are on my home network? I can even go without the camera if it would lower the price. From I have seen online so far, are expensive...
