    More issues connecting over phone app.

    Been using BI for ages -- haven't really had any issues with accessing using my phone. I've changed nothing on my server , and for whatever reason, I just can't connect to the server... a few points: 1) I'm using a vpn to access BI. The VPN is working properly, I can remote into the server...

    any issues with BI on a 10980XE?

    Other than inefficiencies, should be no issues, right? I'm currently running BI on a 6950x, even though not a supported processor I had no problem upgrading to windows 11. But as of the last update, I can no longer get updates. Instead of hacking around it, I have an old gaming / content pc...

    help with BI phone app

    I've been running BI server for several years now, with an app on my phone that has been working flawlessly. For some reason.. and for the life of me I can't imagine what I did ... the app stopped working. I've tried connecting from within the same network (same network segment, connecting to...

    recomondations for a trail cam?

    looking for something with solar and 4g. This is for a piece of property I picked up -- undeveloped, no power, so looking for something I guess that hunters use? I can get out there a few times a month, so maybe something that'll last a week or two with solar., Not ring.

    recommendation on decent cam wit sound?

    I'm using 15 Dahua in my BI build - (these: Dahua Cameras ) They're great, but don't have integrated mic. I know I can put on an external mic, but I'm thinking of adding one or two cameras that have a build in mic just to get sound --- I built this house, so we have plenty of cat6a run...

    is there a "best practices" guide for camera setup in BI?

    I just built a new setup, running 15 brand new dhaua cameras, with a somewhat dated system (which I'll upgrade at some point) -- I don't want to sacrifice quality, but are there any settings I should be mindful of, that don't really impact quality, but can significantly impact cpu usage (for...

    weird issue -BI stops recoring every nigh, for a few hours... never exactly the same time though

    I recently revived an older BI server that was in storage -- was workign fine for years. On windows 10, the hardware, while old, is more than capable -- an intel 6950x, 64gig ram, paired with a 1080ti. I'm running 9 dhaua cameras, with 4x 18tb barracudas. I updated BI to the latest, found the...

    code project -- 75% utilization of my gpu ? normal?

    I'm running a 9900ks / nvidia titan Xp (basically a touch better than a 1080ti). GPUz reports that the gpu is running pretty consistently at 75% -- not a huge deal, temps are manageable (I've done a custom water cooling loop on the cpu and gpu, in the low 40s). But is this normal? seems high...

    deepstack GPU installation guide?

    I'm just getting my feet wet on installing deepstack, and using the GPU install. wading through getting cuDNN installed, etc ... that alone is a little murky. Before I dissect the instructions on Nvidia's site, is there a more digestable guide to getting deepstack GPU version up and running?

    Has anyone run BI on a QNAP TVS-472XT?

    Obviously would have to be in a VM --- I'm currently running in a stand alone PC, wondering if anyone has any positive experiences doing this. Just upgraded mine to a 9900t, 2x m.2 2tb cahce drives, 4x 10tb barraccudas, and 32gb ram. I understand the general consensus has been for a while that...

    currently building a new house-- it's on the shore/beach, and is pretty visible... finished framining the third story, and want to add in some cameras to watch over the site while I'm/construction guys aren't there.

    building a new house on the water -- around 7,000 square foot, three stories. Here's the footprint, I'm thinking around 6 cameras or so from andy on the first floor should do it, where I put the arrows, then maybe a camera on the second or third story on the front/back/side of the house to get...

    recording most recent clips to cloud?

    I have plenty of local storage, but trying to store at least 4-5 past days to the cloud. I have dropbox business, but it just really isn't working -- it doesn't know what to do with files that are constantly changing... seems like it never gets past checking the BI folder (even though I'm only...

    recording JUST substream?

    My current setup has 18 cameras recording 24/7, at 4k resolution. Needless to say, this is a lot of disk space -- which isn't a problem locally-- but I'm also mirroring some of the most recent video to online cloud storage. But it's still a ton of files, to the point where the cloud app is...

    BI/ Dhaua IPC-HFW81230E-ZE going out of focus

    I'm currently running a BI 5.0 system with 14 Dhaua IPC-HFW81230E-ZE purchased from Andy. All are working fine, except one of them keeps going out of focus-- this happens every day, when it switches from day to night, it goes out of focus and stays out of focus until I switch it back. I've...

    BI on an x99 platform -- which processor .. more cores/lower clock or fewer cores/higher clock?

    I'm currently running BI on an older x99 platform (I know this is not an ideal platform for BI since it doesn't have quicksync -- It's a system I already had and cost me nothing). I'm currently running a 6850k (other specs -- 64gig ddr 4 ram, samgg 980pro nvme boot/3x 10tb wd red drives). I'm...

    POE switch that runs off.. incoming POE?

    I just ran a POE wire from house to our dock... dug it by hand (way too rocky for a machine), buried the wire, hooked up the camera.. and realized I want two cameras down there. I don't want to re-run another wire. and I have no power down there either. Are there any switches that take a POE...

    Dahua IPC-HFW81230E-ZE won't focus...

    purchased a IPC-HFW81230e-ZE from Andy, thing will not focus -- it goes out of focus at night, I tried going directly to the camera web ip address and manually focus it, but by the next day, it's out of focus again. I tried upgrading to latest firmware, now it just stays our of focus.. any ideas?

    help optimize my system..

    just upgraded to BI 5, and overall CPU usage seems high -- I'm consistently running around 35-40%... any thoughts on my config? (note, I understand this build is probably slight overkill for BI, just stuff I had laying around): Hardware: i9-900k/32g ddr4 samsung 970pro 1tb boot drive, 3x wd...

    Anyone running bi in a vm?

    I'm running an underutilized dell server at home for domain in various rolls. I setup a hyper v vm running windows 10 and setup bi with 10 4k cameras, set for 10fps at full resolution. The server chip does not have quick sync. Even so, the vm is o fly running at around 20% (8 core virtual cpu...

    Using single POE cable to power mic and camera

    Been lucking this forum a while looking for an easy way to do this … I have few dhaua from andy, and wanted to add a mic without having to add a power outlet for the DC in on the mic (camera is nowhere near power). a POE line should have sufficient voltage to run both the camera and a mic, but...
