That's why I have my cameras on static IPs. I have a set range for my cameras so I know where to start looking. For example 192.168.0.0xx and my Blue Iris Server sits at a static IP as well. Everything else in the house with the exception of my printer is DHCP. It just makes things way...

OK, I decided to go continuous after getting frustrated with recordings being stopped or missing this with motion detection. I've got a decent size Blue Iris system with 21 Cams all 4mp and above except for 2 of them. All are set to continuous sub + trigger. I do use sub streams and capture...

My camera arrived. Now, bear in mind, mine is the wired POE version. It works great with my 20 cam (now 21 cam) Blue Iris setup. The image is great and the phone app seems to work well too. It comes with a detached doorbell wall wart that works off bluetooth. It synced up w/o any effort. I...

I just ordered a reolink. I'll let you know what I think when it gets here.

That's what I want to hear. I use subs. Now....I have a couple cameras I don't need 24/7 recording. Can those individual cameras still do triggered? Thanks for your help so far btw

OK! My 20 camera system would trash it if I continuously recorded all 20 cams LOL So when I switch to continuous which mode should I choose? Continuous, Continuous + triggered, Continuous + alerts? I also use deep stack btw.

That's why I was thinking USB 3.0 which "should" be like 6Gbs

I have a Blue Iris system running on a Dell PC. I currently have 500gb internal SSD and a 4tb SATA HD. I have 20 cameras (primarily 4 and 5 mb Dahua). I'm using motion triggers to capture events. But I would like to go continuous. I realize I have a pretty large pool of cameras. I looked at...

Is there a way to customize the the "user" access level a little more. Specifically take away the ability to delete or manipulate clips all together. Basically I want the user to be able to view only from the web interface.

I'm a long time Blue Iris user. I've never had any real issues with running or using the program. But here in the last year I've run into a real PITA occurrence. It's not the fault of Blue Iris, but the end result makes Blue Iris unreliable. Randomly my machine will go into a "blue screen"...

I believe you're exactly right. My camera would go offline and still give me notifications. See my earlier post. I put my camera online and deleted it from the app. The camera has been online with Blue Iris for about 4days.

Oddly I have the NSC-DB1 running for 4 days now. Moved a WiFi extender within 8ft of the doorbell. I put doorbell cam online. Registered it through the app. Then promptly deleted the camera from the App. The camera has been very stable thus far (going on 4 days). I even turned the wifi...

Hey, I've been running a 15 camera BI setup going on 2 yrs w/o issues. I have expanded my system to 20 cameras. They are all Dahua 4mp cameras (HDW4433C-A) and one Hikvision 4mp all at 10fps. My CPU usage is running OK with 15 cameras and BI doing the motion detection. But my needs for more...

Unless you have a really large or odd shaped room, there is no need for over lapping coverage. Mine picks me up instantly coming out of our bedroom. The sensor is mounted on the wall in my family room that's 14x27 and inline with the hallway (by design). It has no problem looking across the...

Probably generic software instructions that comes with all of their cameras, both PTZ and NON-PTZ.

I just added another disk had have the files move there after 30 days. They go to a folder on the new drive (3gig) and sit there for 6months or until space is needed. Leave the DB on the install drive.

Resolved. Disabled the wifi on my laptop and patched into the switch. Then I rebooted my laptop. Then I used the config tool and the camera allowed the ip change. Don't ask me what the difference was between wired and wireless for my laptop. No difference in the address block or gateway...

I have 2, fresh from China, Dahua DH-IPC-HDW4421C cameras. I find them in the Dahua config tool w/o issue. But I can not modify their IP address. They show up in the tool as 192.168.1.108. I try to change them to my network (10.0.0.x) and all I get is "failed to modify ip". I ordered 2 of...

Sincerity Trade Co. I just placed the order lastnight so it will take a while for the slow boat from China to arrive.

I did. Ordered 2 from Aliexpress. First time ordering from them. We'll see

Is there any difference between the two cameras? (IPC-HDW4421C and IPC-HDW4421S)? Other than the visual difference in the IR and lens arrangement. I've looked at the spec sheets and they look identical. But there is a significant price difference between the 2 on Ebay and Aliexpress. What am...

Yeah after thinking about it, it would be easier and cheaper to just add a 2tb internal drive.

I wouldn't over complicate things. Just go to a yard sale, on eBay or craigslist and get you a cheap 15in flat screen monitor. You could prob find one for 20 bucks. They're not heavy. And other than the cables dangling they are quite portable.

I use a wireless HDMI transmitter on my TV. IR blaster to change the tv HDMI input. I use it to take the tv signal from a bedroom tv to a TV in my detached workshop. I guess don't see why you couldn't use it on a PC to do the same.

I want to get my recordings off my main computer HD. I'm looking at a 4tb drive. (I have 3 cameras. My plan is to have 8-10 cameras when I'm done). Anyway, I'm trying to decide if a second internal 4tb HD is better than say a WD MyBook 4tb NAS. Hard drives are cheap. But I like the ability to...

I could not see the IR lit (that faint pinkish glow) when I put the camera in a dark room. I've set up lots of cameras on my network. It's just a plain old home network (10.0.0.X). No firewalls on the PC. I gave it nearly a half hour. It never came on that I could tell. No activity lights...

Plugged camera into my switch, the POE light comes on but no other lights on the switch. Camera is a no show on the network. I've scanned with hikvisions tool and AngryIP scanner. I've tried different cables, switch ports and the AC adapter. Nothing. I've put lots of stuff on networks. I've...

Low and behold...the camera was DOA!!! Just my luck. Thank goodness I decided to test the camera out before I hung it up.

ah HA! I got it. I don't see this going well if i ever have to uninstall the camera while on a ladder! Way harder than it should ever be.

OK, first time poster. I've been lurking here for a while though. But I am having a helluva time with a camera installation. I simply can not figure out how to remove the trim ring on the Hikvision DS-2CD2335-I turret camera. I've read the instructions. I've googled it. YouTube...
