Thanks I will test that out!

My older version Amcrest PTZ cameras are very accurate in terms of the Amcrest software controlling their movement. Once I click the mouse it instantly moves and once i unlick it instantly stops. However, on my newer cameras , this one specifically Modelip2m-863ew-ai-v2 the reactions are...

Do you happen to know how to set the substream/mainstream for a lorex camera? I see the values are dependent of the brand.

Yessss!!!! Thank you! I was trying to put the camera IP, didnt think to try the NVR IP. Your awesome, much appreciated! NOTE- To add the additional cameras I had to select the different Stream Profile from the Dropdown.

I switched my generic brand IP cameras to a Lorex system. The Cameras plug directly into the Lorex NVR now, instead of the POE switch I previously used. When plugged into the POE switch, blue iris detects the cameras but when plugged into the Lorex nvr blue iris doesn seem to pick them up when I...

Nevermind, seem to have fixed it. Swapped to an SSD and also changed and updated storage locations.

Im working on setting up a VPN on my netgear router now. This will only utilize the vpn on devices connected directly to the netgear router I am assuming. Does this mean I also have to use a vpn on my ISP provided router? Maybe I should just connect all ethernet devices directly to my netgear...

Whenever I try to play back footage Blue Iris freezes. Is is also only playing back some of the cameras but not all.

Those are just the wifi cams. The rest are POE, 3 PTZ and about 7 Fixed cams

Ok so maybe I will just change the config over to an access point. I only have a couple of wyze wifi cams for similar uses as yourself. Im just dreading the unexpected side effects like having to reconnect my damn ring camera, doorbell etc.

What is the difference in terms of functionality/internet performance between using the netgear router as a router vs an access point?

Ok I am trying to figure out how to change the IP's on the cameras

Sorry, the local devices connect through ethernet all start 192.168.1.XXX The wyze cams are such like 10.0.0.XXX

ok not as neat as yours but to the best of my ability this is how it goes

Ok sounds pretty straightforward. Will all of my wifi connected devices have to be reconnected? Will they be assigned new IP's? Thanks

Hmm ok I will check the netgear website to see if they have instructions to do that. I am assuming any wifi devices will need to be reconnected?

I am not entirely sure. I used the automated setup a couple of years ago when I got the router. The camera ip's that are connected to that network are not in the same range as the ones on my local network.

Yes I added substream to some of them since the others I need to be able to see higher quality during live viewing. Thanks!

I use a secondary (netgear) router for wifi. It took me a while to get my Wyze cams to work on my nvr software because I did not realize my pc had to be on the same network as the wyze cams. My PC is hardwired with ethernet. I can only view the wyze cam feeds if I connect my computer using wifi...

Thank you! Got the usage down to 35%

Great thanks. I also need some help with my wyze cams but I will create a new thread in the proper area for that.

It seems once I started to change all cams to direct to disk, the cpu usage dropped drastically. Down to 25% now... EDIT 35% now

Yes I have done that for each camera but there seems to be a separate option for hardware accelerated decode.

Can I select the hardware accelerated decode per camera individually instead of from the overall camera settings? Reason being is that my wyze cams had dropped when i changed the overall hardware accelerated decode.

Thanks for the quick reply, checking that now!

I have just purchased a dedicated pc just for blueiris and recording. I have only added 3 cameras so far and everything is lagging and it says 99% CPU usage. I believe my pc should be more than capable of handling the tasks.
