    blue iris suddenly a memory hog and at 100% cpu usage

    I just checked my camera settings in BI after the update and can confirm it DID change the max rate fps on two of my cams. One to 41fps and one to 39fps.

    Considering Dahua

    I have a Zyxel Managed 8 Port switch (GS1900-10HP) and with my limited knowledge was able to get it running fairly easily. I figured out with the help of everyone here that I needed to set my default gateway and to change the POE type and its been running flawlessly. I ended up going managed...

    Considering Dahua

    @CJ555, I'm new to this game myself and recently set up five Dahua Starlights and a doorbell cam. I have very little networking knowledge and am not handy in the least bit. I was able run all my own cable (including terminating, adding weatherproof connections, etc.), mount and set up all...

    Does anyone have trouble with bugs flying around camera during the Day?

    I have a total of five cams up and only have this issue with one camera. The camera over my driveway attracts bugs like crazy, particularly in the daytime! There are flies, mosquitos, bees, you name it; they all hang around this one particular cam. Anyone else has this issue and any ideas...

    My experience with the Zmodo Ding Doorbell Cam

    I picked up this cam in a package that came with a WiFi extender and two door sensors on Black Friday for under $50. For the price, I wasn't expecting much. I got it installed yesterday and so far it's not half bad. I'm guessing the night time image quality is decent because of the IR from my...

    Need help with zones

    That's the video I used to set up zone crossing in the first place because of all the alerts I was getting due to shadows during the day. I have it working fairly well on all my other cameras. It also works as I want in all other areas of this camera, other than walking in to the frame from...

    Need help with zones

    So I've tried several different zone setups for zone crossing on this particular camera. For whatever reason I cannot get the camera to trigger when entering from the direction of the orange arrow. I've made sure the zone crossing settings are correct (two way from all zones) and tried several...

    Should my switch be able to handle these cams?

    That did it! Thanks for the help, you responded quicker than Zyxel customer service in live chat.

    Should my switch be able to handle these cams?

    According to Dahua website specs on HDW5231 power consumption should be <8.5 Watts. Switch specs state max PoE power budget is 77 Watts. So even at 8.5 Watts per camera that's only 42.5 Watts. What am I missing? :idk:

    Should my switch be able to handle these cams?

    I have a Zyxel GS1900-10HP POE switch. I bought it under the impression it would be able to handle 5 Dahua HDW5231-RZ. I finally got my fifth camera hooked up and noticed one of the others went down. So I checked the log in and saw this - Port GigabitEthernet8: Power was denied because of...

    Definitely not alerting upon motion trigger. But alerts when triggered manually. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

    Single Camera Won't Send Any Notifications

    I just manually triggered the cameras and alerts came through, both email and SMS. I'll have to see if they'll function when triggered by motion now. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

    Single Camera Won't Send Any Notifications

    I didn't. But that shouldn't matter. BI should be sending all the alerts I choose. I'll give it a shot for troubleshooting purposes but I need the SMS alerts to function properly (or figure out what I'm doing wrong, but unlikely because all I have done from default in alerts is enable them)...

    Single Camera Won't Send Any Notifications

    Yes, I started with just SMS messages. I wasn't getting any so I added push notifications so see if they'd work and when those didn't either I tried adding email. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

    Here are screenshots of my alert settings for all three cameras. They look identical to me with the exception of the one not sending notifications also having the email alert box checked. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

    Single Camera Won't Send Any Notifications

    I set up three of my five cameras on Thursday. All three cams are on the same profile. Two have been sending proper notifications but one of the cameras will not send any sort of notifications to me when it is triggered. I've tried push notifications to the app, text message, and email. It...

    IR Hotspot

    Finally got a few of my cameras up. I noticed the one at my back door has a pretty intense IR hotspot. I went in to settings and attempted to manually adjust the IR without much luck in reducing it. Any other things I can try to reduce the hotspot? Camera is a HDW5231. Sent from my SM-N950U...

    VPN Problems via ASUS Router

    That's actually a workaround I'm willing to deal with. Glad I got this figured out, thanks a ton guys. Couldn't have done it otherwise.

    VPN Problems via ASUS Router

    :smash: That seems to have been the issue. Just got in via VPN. How I can I block the cams from accessing the internet and still be able to access via VPN?

    Printer was DHCP. Assigned it the IP of the cam and can connect to it fine on the VPN.
