    CPU going to 100% overnight

    so what data do you suppose HIK vision would be getting from those millions of cameras? I have 2 BI machines because they are in different locations with drastically different monitor configurations, and one is set to record continuously and one is upon motion. believe it or not the additional...

    CPU going to 100% overnight

    thanks southern Yankee, I can do that or just keep the faster Nvidia board in since I think it may be doing a better job of offloading from the CPU..(I know how to set for Max power and never sleep) you mentioned above that these cameras may be phoning home, you mean like back to HIKvision? (I...

    CPU going to 100% overnight

    okay, now we are getting somewhere… First of all I admit my mistake by having the individual cameras set for no decode instead of default.. Changed that and now Intel decode is working (only when a monitor is connected to that GC however) Nvidia decode is still not working with GTS 450...

    CPU going to 100% overnight

    thank you all for your varied advice, it's all good stuff, I will get to the networking/security issues next, but for right now I want to focus on the original CPU problem and fine-tuning of the system in that regard. for testing purposes I have disabled Windows defender real-time protection and...

    CPU going to 100% overnight

    as it turns out, the BI machine in question was only negotiating 100 Mb connection, looks like it was maybe a bad cable, running at 1 GB now.. Not sure if that explains my problem but thanks for bringing it up.

    CPU going to 100% overnight

    thanks samplenhold, The network numbers you mentioned above would suggest that I'm on 100 Mb network and you are a 1 Gb network, no? But as far as I know all the switches and routers are 1 Gb. all the cameras and the 2 BI machines are on a 24 port 1 GB switch then also connected to that switch...

    CPU going to 100% overnight

    as a side note, after reading the optimization document, I checked the video scaling, and it was set for fast. Just goofing around, I set it for bicubic and it immediately drove the CPU to 100% but after changing back to fast CPU was stuck at 100% until I restarted BI...

    CPU going to 100% overnight

    looking to get the vast experience of the crowd since I am somewhat of a neophyte. I have a BI system that's been working fine for a number of years and as of two weeks or so ago it started pegging the CPU overnight and staying there until I restarted Bi. I have a lot of Hi-Rez cameras...

    BI 4.8.4.6 Crashes 4.8.4.2 runs..

    Southern Yankee, I think you may have hit on it, all I did was assign four cameras to each of three drives (no cascading files from one drive to the next) and had BI delete from each folder as drive fills and it has been running for a couple of days now with no issues. It's not totally...

    BI 4.8.4.6 Crashes 4.8.4.2 runs..

    Yes sorry 8GB & 4GB I will try limiting the 8MP cameras to 1 hour and the 4MP cameras to 2 hours, keeping files ~1GB. I will also stop the cascading between drives. If I export the current setting to a.reg file, will it save this kind of size/drive settings? It might take a few tries, and it...

    BI 4.8.4.6 Crashes 4.8.4.2 runs..

    Southern Yankee, I do have the files cascading: New > move to Stored stored > move to Aux 1 Aux 1 > Delete I have cameras being limited to eight hours of video which translates to: eight mega pixel cameras = roughly 8 MB files four megapixel cameras = roughly 4 MB files I can try your one...

    BI 4.8.4.6 Crashes 4.8.4.2 runs..

    Thanks for your help Fenderman, no, C: has the OS, BI and database on it, clip recording is done on 3, 8TB drives, all identical Seagate. I am restricting the allocation size to 95% of drives capacity as reported in Windows Explorer.

    BI 4.8.4.6 Crashes 4.8.4.2 runs..

    Thanks for the response StevenP, but I have to walk back a few things I said above. It looks like it's not a difference in the software version that's causing the problem, but the fact that system 2 is recording continuously (which is the one I'm having a problem with) that's causing the...

    BI 4.8.4.6 Crashes 4.8.4.2 runs..

    I have 2 BI systems both looking at the same cameras, system 1 is rock solid and runs for months on end, system 2 is considerably more finicky, where BI crashes after a short period of time. The period of time seemingly matters which version of BI I am running. (as well as other settings like HW...

    Find cameras BI knows about

    no hidden cams, I am doing it becuase it is a much more efficient use of monitor real estate, no interface borders, cams use all available real estate and UI gets shoved off screen. Plus since you can have multiple monitors, some landscape and some portrait, the UI wont fit the array. one other...
