    manual snapshot or manual record Greyed out

    I think I remember you saying, that even though with Direct To Disc, to keep HW Acceleration enabled to help "lower" CPU usage, since with "live view" there is still decoding going on. Therefore I figured regardless of being h264/h265 to keep HW Acceleration enabled. I don't like seeing the...

    Thanks for the prompt reply. Must have been me. I miss understood your post that either 1) my cpu didn’t do HA or I had a setting wrong lol! 2) I’d rather have larger file sizes than having a status icon with the yellow exclamation point. 4) thanks I will reinstall again :)

    Clip Storage Allocation showing '?' on LOCAL disks

    Didn’t know about the update the second it was released. Had not clicked check for updates in the 15 days I had the demo. I had your tools installed but apparently didn’t have “update backup started” so can’t revert back. Going to try just extracting the files from the update and overriding...

    Multiple Cat5 Outside Cables how to run inside help

    One of the thoughts with 1) is running it alongside the ac duct that is literally above the networking stuff. However the question follows: Run 8+ networking cables down? Through one hole? Wouldn’t the hole have to be 2-3 inches big? I would then be going through at least 6-8 fire beams the...
