Thanks. This is what I was after: cpu utilization of BI process rises up to 100% It looks like group policy is the best way to block updates for specific hardware.

Tried the steps below but it has happened yet again. I could disable Windows Update altogether but would rather not do this. Stop automatic driver updates on Windows 10 It always updates to the latest intel driver and then CPU usage is back to 100% ...

There is a kernel update for the spectre issue. The graphics card driver was updated also but I think completely unrelated.

Mine just did the same thing. Windows updated the intel driver to 22.20.16.4836 dated 10/17/17. CPU Usage 100% after a very short startup time. I thought it was the BI update as well. Rolling back to 21.20.16.4664 .... Here are the simple steps to disable this feature. Stop automatic driver...

Turning off VPP freed mine up a lot.

What are some things that would make Blue Iris even better? 1. Alerts by object type (cars, people, other). 2. Built in support for sub streams. If viewing a single cam, you might want 1080p detail, and it's efficient to record 1080p direct to disk. However it's very inefficient to scale down...

Another suggestion for a project. It would be really interesting to know the specifics on where traffic is heading through the EdgeRouter. For example, assign all cameras a valid default gateway and see which ones attempt to transmit to Chinese IP addresses. This would be easy to do with a...

Great documentation. The first should be called "the missing OpenVPN setup guide for EdgeRouter" PPTP is least secure but also the easiest. I settled for PPTP because I was having lots of issues getting L2TP to work more than once due to the connection sticking open. I have also had trouble in...

Dang :) I would swear those weren't there when I searched. Maybe I clicked on 6th gen instead of 7th gen. Free shipping and the 10% off on Dell.com, plus tax. Still almost $70 cheaper than eBay. I need to check a little more carefully :) I will probably forget in 3 years when it's time to do it...

The change in band was probably a big part of it. Comcast/Google Fiber/AT&T all have been supplying 2.4ghz equipment for quite a while now for every new install, plus the increased number of people probably using streaming services on wifi instead of hard wired. But my interference issues didn't...

The Google Fiber network box had some annoying symptoms that masked themselves as Blue Iris issues. It would frequently interfere with Blue Iris when viewing remotely, ie. freezing up or unable to reconnect. The wifi was less-than-stellar also, so even when I was home, I couldn't reliably view...

Best I could find for an i7-7700 with Windows 10 Pro and USB-C. Is there something cheaper?

Changed my mind. Dell 7050 small form factor has a similar power requirement. It made the HP at $500 look like less of a good deal when I had to add Windows 10 Pro upgrade and another video card anyway. New spec: Dell 7050 Small form factor optiplex Hard drive: 3.5" desktop 8TB WD Purple...

Time to upgrade the Blue Iris rig. There are 3 reasons for the upgrade. Higher max capacity with 3.5" hard drive Ability to add an extra graphics card and more displays Looking to support additional cameras with faster CPU Best Buy happened to have a good sale going on. Figured I will see if...

Android on wifi or LTE - Widget will refresh only if you have gone into the app and then exit. Does not background refresh. Android on wifi - videos at least play somewhat, but slowly, like half speed. Web browser or directly on server - works much better.

Max bitrate is 512 kbps. Upload speed is 2.0 mbps. My connection is completely idle.......

Does anyone else have constant connectivity problems with the app? 1) If using the Android wallpaper camera widget, the widget does not refresh 2) Sometimes fails to connect entirely. Rebooting the Blue Iris server seems to help 3) If connected, very choppy playback, or just quits working...

One month in and still working great. No issues with it connected to the Hikvision + Blue Iris. I ordered another one to install at my front porch for keeping track of packages and stuff. They are NOT outdoor rated. I plan to add silicone. Unfortunately the worst of winter is over, so I won't be...

Just installed the driver from this link. With this driver and 13 cameras running (8 of them H.264) it is staying under 50% CPU usage at 1080p. Previously it was maxing out the CPU with 720p at times. Previous (Dell or Windows Update supplied - not sure which) / new (Intel setup wouldn't auto...

I ordered 3 Chinese cameras off eBay just to see how bad they really are. Here's the first. KKMOON Chinese fisheye camera ($65). Main points of interest: 1. Confirmed works with Hikvision NVR (and Blue Iris) 2. Limited web interface. Requires desktop software to change default IP...

This is an old post. He might have thrown it away by now. But since I was searching for setup info and couldn't find any, I added my findings ...

In case anyone is searching for KKMOON streaming urls, here's a way to find out. Example - (assuming default ip 192.168.1.10, and admin / blank password) rtsp://192.168.1.10/user=admin&password=&channel=1&stream=1.sdp?real_stream--rtp-caching=100

The machine locked up last night. First time that has happened. I am going to leave the RDP connection up this time and see if it happens again. When it was running as a service, I guess it wasn't using any acceleration? Hope this whole thing isn't a driver fiasco. I have a fresh drive I could...

I checked a second time and confirmed the remote connection was closed. Live viewer is limited to 1 FPS in the options. I removed the limit and CPU usage increased.

I normally run it headless with remote desktop. Windows 10 pro as supplied on the drive by Dell (plus whatever updates I installed for the Intel driver when I put it into service in relation to troubleshooting this issue). I just tried it with a monitor directly on the console and the cpu usage...

1. Disabling VPP lowered usage from 55% to 45%. 2. Running Blue Iris as a desktop application instead of Windows service lowered it further to 35% usage. Also, not nearly as many CPU spikes now. That's a pretty good improvement. Is that about on target for 9 cams 1280x720 @ 20 FPS with none...

Full version, 4.4.9.9. I do see video tearing once in a while. I changed the iframe interval to 20 on all of them to see if that helps. I set it to Yes (No VPP) for each camera, and the main settings page. Restarted Blue Iris service. Seems like that helped a little. 45% usage now. I guess...

i5-6500t. You can see a decrease in the graph below where I disabled a couple of cameras that produce m-jpeg streams. The remaining cameras are hikvision 3 and 4 mp, have motion sensing enabled in Blue Iris, 20 FPS @ 1280x720. Yes hardware decoding + VPP, each camera, and Intel h/w decoding...

My understanding after combing through the help file on the same issue is that Blue Iris combines the group of cameras into one frame before sending to the remote viewer. I think HikVision calls this "channel 0 encoding." It's more efficient than sending 10 individual streams to the remote...

I'm also a former iSpy user. Had lots of issues with it. I have been enjoying Blue Iris but wish I had gone with an i7 quad core instead of the i5. My current system is nearly maxed out with 9 HD cameras running at 720p.
