    Hikvision DS-7608NI-I2-8P+disabling channels

    Evening, A friend of mine has just purchased a Hikvision DS-7608NI (8P), but is only using 5 of the channels. Ideally he would like to have the live vision only show the active / in use channels when it is in auto-switch. Does anyone know if this is possible to disable the channels not being...

    Need 8 camera NVR to record 45+ days constant

    I'm sure of some of the more knowledgeable folks here will chime in. I have an 8 cam setup, all running on BlueIris, all running mostly HikVision 2132's. They are not on the highest settings, but certainly good quality if reviewing, which is really the whole purpose. I have it writing to a...

    Keeping older Alerts

    I've just been wondering the exact same thing re the alerts on the timeline. After my setup, I've got it to set and keep footage for 25 days. Anything prior to the 12th of March at the moment the alert symbol is gone.

    Live preview issue

    I've dropped the bitrate by more than half, so I will monitor and see how it goes! Thanks for the advice.

    Live preview issue

    The buffer is set to 20mb. I made this change which seemed to improve the problem slightly, but still there. Max bitrate is 16384. Video format is set to Blue Iris DVR, with direct to disc enabled. No hardware acceleration used (no onboard video card). Is Blue Iris version 4.3.0.8x64. One...

    Live preview issue

    I've noticed a small problem on my setup at home. I currently have 6 x Hikvision 2132's, 1 x 2732 and 1 x 4565. All the cameras are set to a time server. For some reason on the live preview (note the setting on Cameras / Video during remote desktop is unrestricted), 7 of the cameras are timed...

    Meth head crashes his car into my caravan/wall and drags person 60 feet+

    The term chucking gave it away. Thankfully it was not into your house and no one hurt or killed. Sent from my SM-G925I using Tapatalk

    Meth head crashes his car into my caravan/wall and drags person 60 feet+

    Fence looks expensive too! From the video it looks like some of the people were chucking bricks at the car. Oh dear.

    What sort of mobile phone do you have? I installed a small app which connects to my vpn server. Then your phone is issued an internal private ip, same as if you were connected on home wifi Sent from my SM-G925I using Tapatalk

    Can't access my cam from WAN ?

    I have just recently turned off port forwarding and setup a VPN server on my router. To be honest it was actually easier than port forwarding. Depending on the router, there are step by step instructions on the web. My router even had a handy feature to export the config settings direct to my...

    Any feedback on the DS-2CD4565F

    Thanks for the suggestions, I've setup the day/night schedule and seems 100% better. Hiky, unfortunately the weather is terrible at the moment. Slight breeze, around 33 deg not a cloud in the sky ! I think its going to be above 30 deg all week.... :D

    Any feedback on the DS-2CD4565F

    Well I pulled the trigger on the DS-2CD4565F-IZ. One thing I have noticed is a lot of motion blur on the image (both in BI and live view via Firefox). Cars and people walking tend to be the same. Attached screenshot of video/audio settings. On image settings (display tab) I have the...

    Any cheap tricks to run cable in attic through soffts like a 18' tent pole or ?

    We use yellow tongue down here in Australia. Not sure if you guys have it over there. Its a long thing plastic 'tongue' which is found on flooring sheets (inbetween joins). There is always some of it in the bins at buildings sites or you can buy direct from Bunnings for a few dollars.

    HikVision cameras (non grey) to update firmware or not??

    No, all seems to be working OK. I found some other threads which spelt out nothing but trouble with updates (grey imports) but likewise issues with overseas WR units, so I think I'll bed the issue of updating firmware.

    HikVision cameras (non grey) to update firmware or not??

    Evening all, I've spent the last couple of nights reading a lot on the form re grey market imports and firmware issues. My setup is mostly 2132's, 1 x 2732 and my new 4565F-IZ. The 4565F-IZ is running 5.3.0 build 150612. The rest are all on 5.2.0 build 150122. The device type / serial...

    Any feedback on the DS-2CD4565F

    Apologies for the typo. Yes its the DS-2CD4565F I am looking at getting. Would it be fair to expect a better picture quality from the 3mp 2132 to the 6mp 4565? Its more for when reviewing footage, if I need to zoom (digital) say a max 30% of the image to get a licence plate or similar, would...

    zooming

    I use the mouse scroll in Blue Iris which allows digital zoom. My cams are 3mp. The quality goes down significantly when you zoom. I would be interested if the quality stayed say on a 6mp cam Sent from my SM-G925I using Tapatalk

    Blue Iris Hardare Requirements

    My graphics card is only low end - a Nvidia Geforce GTX 750 Ti. I only have limited knowledge and fairly new to this area. My limited understanding was that B.I was mostly CPU driven and not relying on the graphics card. However someone with more experience may be able to assist in that area!

    Blue Iris Hardare Requirements

    Hello Ffwd. I'm only new here, but happy to share my setup specs. Originally I installed BlueIris on my media centre (running 24/7). It was an AMD 9590, running Win7 with 16gb of ram from memory. 6 x HikVision 2132's connected, with B.I doing motion detection. The CPU would hover around the...
