    Turned off motion detection, expected BI CPU drop? +sighthound Q's

    Just a quick followup for anyone else looking at blueiris and sighthound integration. I wound up having to set 20 second pre-record buffers on any cams in BI that were being triggered by Sighthound... otherwise the lag would cause the system to miss the initial motion. I have 16GB ram so this...

    Remove hidden cameras from ui2 (remote view)

    Thank you fenderman. That worked perfectly with the mobile app. Anyone have something similar for ui2 (remote web view program by bp2008)? I know a lot of people are using "duped" cameras so I'm assuming there has got to be a way to not show them all in the web UI. Thanks! W

    Remove hidden cameras from ui2 (remote view)

    Hello, How do you stop showing a camera marked as "hidden" in ui2 (the remote interface from bp2008)? When I run the actual BI app locally, I have unselected "show hidden cameras"... so that looks great. However, when I view BI remotely (through ui2 web interface or android app) it shows ALL...

    Turned off motion detection, expected BI CPU drop? +sighthound Q's

    Some followup on triggering blueirirs via sighthound I had to use this python file to trigger BI via sighthound: GitHub - magapp/blueiriscmd: Python cmd tool that talk with Blue Iris Camera surveillance software I was unable to use simple "restful" http commands because the BI login system will...

    Turned off motion detection, expected BI CPU drop? +sighthound Q's

    Yes, was viewing via remote desktop. Going direct killed about 2% CPU. WOW, turning on intel HD acceleration with h.264 dropped it to 20% total usage. Tried again with VidPostProc, and it dropped it to 8-10%!!!! Thank you! Wow, I've been missing out on the BI good life for a LONG time...

    Turned off motion detection, expected BI CPU drop? +sighthound Q's

    Hello and thank you. Yes I agree, seems like high CPU usage with no motion detection or triggers. BI is licensed version. Cameras and BI are matched at 15fps. Direct to disk is enabled.

    Turned off motion detection, expected BI CPU drop? +sighthound Q's

    Hi, For my Blue Iris setup, I've turned off all motion detection triggering etc, no clips are being recorded. I have 5 4MP hikivision cams. CPU usage went from 50% to 40%. I was expecting a MUCH bigger drop. Is this to be expected? Are there other areas I could turn off to lower CPU further...

    Can someone simplify utilizing a VPN with Hikvisions NVR and my home network?

    Nayr, you're totally right yet totally wrong. (1) The link you provided... what is that proving? That some hiks get rooted? To what extent? (2) Can the potential to get hacked be mitigated by using a secure password, a random port, and staying up to date on firmware? (3) You're asking...

    Can someone simplify utilizing a VPN with Hikvisions NVR and my home network?

    Thanks Nayr. So there's no way to autoconnect to an openvpn on phones/tablets? If there's no way to autoconnect, then any alert you get is a PITA because it might be a cam in backyard that rarely gets false positives.... but now you've got to login to openvpn first and the whole "ease of...

    Can someone simplify utilizing a VPN with Hikvisions NVR and my home network?

    How safe is this with, for example a Hik NVR that you are actively updating firmware with via Nellys? EDIT: Assuming it's not all that safe, are there any wife friendly methods of auto connnecting iPhone/iPad/Andoids to an openVPN?

    New setup and lots of camera questions

    Hi IP cam gurus. Been lurking and have some questions: (1) Are there any outdoor cams that mimic the nest/dropcam in that you can do 2 way audio via BI or sighthound or ??? The best I can find is the Hikvision DS-2CD2432F-IW but it's an indoor cam. I have read that, if hung under an awning...
