    True Network Video Recorder

    If we use the scenario above, not counting a potential additional switch right at the router, I would have one switch in the attic to run 2 outdoor cameras and 1 indoor camera and another switch in my outbuilding to run 2 outdoor cameras. I would then connect the last indoor either directly to...

    True Network Video Recorder

    I think probably 8 cameras. I spoke again to the supplier and I'm still in the dark. It sounded lime he said yes I can use switches to minimize say a building to building run but unless I misunderstood him, the camera cabling had to originate from the NVR and I had to branch off that run. That...

    True Network Video Recorder

    Fenderman, Could you point me in the direction of the equipment? The supplier that I'm currently working with is saying no dice but I have a hard time believing the equipment fir this stuff is that archaic. I simply cannot run dedicated runs from NVR to each camera in most of my installs. I...

    Remote Viewing ?

    I use DYNDNS. I have a paid subscription because I connect to multiple sites. If you're just talking a few, you can use their free account.

    True Network Video Recorder

    My network only became unstable when I installed Blue Iris. I never had any problems using Surveillance Pro, it could also be only pulling the substream which requires less bandwidth and processing power from the camera...

    If you have more than 1 profile/schedule, you need to edit the settings for each.

    True Network Video Recorder

    Thanks. I'm running BI right now. One of my installs (far from me unfortunately) running BI and 4 Foscam cameras (all wireless) is very unstable. All of the cameras are visible and functional using Surveillance Pro but when I add all 4 cameras to BI, one or 2 cameras drop of (No Signal). I can't...

    True Network Video Recorder

    First, let me stress that I am far from an expert on these products. i'm looking for a true network device. Not a NVR that requires you to cable back to the device. I would like to connect the NVR to a network and have it communicate with cameras that are on the network via their IP addresses...

    BI Schedules and Profiles

    Ok. I think I"m getting it. I may have messed things up a bit in reading the help screen. It says By default, every minute of every day will use profile 1 (green). So I went back and reset Profile 1 to "default" and set it to all green. I set up DayOnly and NightOnly and put green for those...

    BI Schedules and Profiles

    Thanks a million. I knew it was definitely user error. Just to summarize my setup, I have 9 cameras (all Foscam-nothing special); 3 are local (same network a PC that has BI) and 6 are remote (accessed via DYNDNS). For the local cameras, I just want recording/motion trigger and alerts at night...

    BI Schedules and Profiles

    Hi folks. I think I'm missing something in attempting to get BI to work the way I want it to work. I established 2 Profiles: 1) 24/7 and 2) Night Only. I have some cameras that I only want to record and alert during the night only. I go into each of these cameras' settings and select Night...
