    Is there a way to completely reset?

    Hi all, is there a way to completely reset the db/start over outside of BI? In the process of dealing with storage issues (upgrading single 4tb drive to 2x 10 tb drives) and swapping out some cameras I’ve managed to get BI to become unresponsive so, as I have a backup of the old video (ie the...

    Remote Management question

    Hi all, So, I have BI5 up and running and doing a decent job but I have a couple questions before I look into a second license for remote management: 1) Do the users need to still have administrative rights? 2) Is the video delay lower than when viewing through UI3? Normally on UI3 I'm...

    Question about BI4 vs BI5

    Hi all, I currently have an older system running on an AMD and overloading it that I plan to setup on an i7 system that should work out better. I've had this system up and running for a fairly long time now (about 4 years) and it's running BI 4.x. So I have two options right now - move my...

    Lag + other issue on Web UI3 question

    Hi all, We are monitoring the cameras on our network via the web interface at our front desk - not all of them, just 4. We are running into two issues I'm not sure where the culprit is... 1) Lagging video - it plays smoothly but it's at about a 1.5 -2.5 second delay from what is actually...

    Quick question about https...

    Hi all, I'm running a fairly old (4.2.5.x) version of BI where I needed to use stunnel to provide HTTPS access to the BI web interface, does the current version (4.7.x) support https out of the box or will I still need to use stunnel? I'm getting ready to update, but wanted to make sure I knew...

    Storage question - moving from new to stored

    Hi all, I was wondering - those that use DtD recording (so date/time is not overlaid on the video) when you have your new footage shifted to stored, do you have it marked for conversion to place the date/time stamp on it or just move it to your stored without conversion/export? I just wish I...

    Remote Access

    Hi all, I'm wondering what people here suggest for remote access? My BI server is in a remote, very cold room. For just watching the video, or reviewing footage, the web interface is OK, but if I need to export the footage for evidence, I'm currently needing to go into that room which I would...

    Analog capture / video IP server

    Hi all, I'm needing an analog capture option for BI. Yes, I know it would be nice/better if I could just replace the cameras with IP cameras, but it's not an immediate option so I need to be able to record from these cameras in BI. The OS platform will either be Windows 7 or Windows 10 (we...
