so far so good for the past 6 hours doing this! We'll see once 24 hours pass and I check what happens with the camera when I'm in bed... but oh man if this is what fixes it... wonderful!

thanks! I'll try this option too! getting frustrating lately having to right click > restart camera all the time.

Unfortunately, I just installed the dummy displayport (my optiplex doesn't have hdmi so had to purchase a displayport dummy adapter) and also did the graphics settings and it's still doing the random ghosting/artifacting so now I have no idea. Maybe this weekend I'll create and crimp and test a...

Whoa, that's way worse than mine! I did just try to do another BI update and see. Camera was working fine at 11:30AM PST today... an hour later, artifact trails behind my wife walking in front of the camera. Essentially no rhyme or reason to when it happens.

Hmm interesting, never knew Windows added individual app settings that you can set the Graphics to be High Performance in the Settings > Display > Graphics Setting. I had set the Advanced Power Settings to High Performance way back when I set this specific computer up. Okay, I added...

It is headless. I have RDP on my main desktop to it all the time. What's strange is so like just looking at some of the recordings from this morning of a contractor i had over, there's no ghosting or artifacting even though I haven't checked it since last night so a good ~11 to 12 hours, which...

Unfortunately, the only options for the camera settings are H.264H or H.265, no regular H.264. Is that normal/unusual? And yup, currently on 5.2.6.5

Hello! I've noticed recently that my main Dahua camera after about about 4-5 hours of normal recording will all of a sudden start to show ghosting/artifacting. I can right click on the camera and choose "restart camera" and everything will be fine again until again about 4-5 hours. The settings...

Hello all! Have an install question that hopefully I can get some help with. I've had this turret camera (NSC-2X2-DM 2MP WDR EXIR Turret IP Security Camera 2.8mm - Nelly's Security) above my door for a couple years, but since purchasing a Nest Hello doorbell, I feel that covers the front walkway...

Ah yes! That was one of the other changes I made in my Computer Power Options! I knew I forgot to jot down what else I changed to get it to work. I'll edit my other post in case other people might spring upon this thread to help them.

so no idea which ones of the things I changed which did it, but at the moment, the past couple days have had no freezes. Here's what I did in case it might help someone else: Made sure I actually went to the Intel HD 4600 website to get the latest graphics driver and installed instead of the...

Unchecked it and two videos recorded this morning still had the 7 second freeze, ugh..

So after some testing.. i found out at least for me... the freeze always happens after the preconfigured record time after motion is detected.. so initially I had it to record 4 seconds before motion is detected. So the video was actually freezing after 4 seconds. I changed the setting to 10...

Unselected, videos still doing the 7 second freeze.. arrrghh

<SOLVED> Steps I took that fixed my problem, most likely the 3rd bullet that actually fixed it though. Made sure I actually went to the Intel HD 4600 website to get the latest graphics driver and installed instead of the intel driver update utility as that one kept saying I had the latest...

Seriously!! I'm so stuck on where to proceed now..

Hmm... guessing I should swap this 2.8 to front garage and then maybe order the Dahua Starlight Varifocal everyone is raving about on the other thread for my front door? Here's another photo of the camera in corridor mode. Definitely better area coverage. I think my front door steps are really...

So finally put up the camera: NSC-2X2-DM 2MP WDR EXIR Turret IP Security Camera 2.8mm - Nelly's Security I put it in the top right slanted corner for testing. I'm not sure I like it there as discussed in the thread. Light on right side and also too high. Seeing the photos, would a 4mm camera be...

Yeah will definitely toss it on one of my spare 2x4s before I actually mount it. Problem though is figuring out which style of camera to order first too based on where I'm going to put it haha. Chicken and egg.... That left side of the walkway/door is the garage so that's where I was planning on...

I actually just asked my in-laws (home construction) how hard it'd be to move that light to above my doorway, they said they'd get back to me... Guessing I could just terminate the wiring from the switch inside on the wall behind the door to that light, then re run it in the drywall above my...

hmm, man, my porch light location is really making this difficult then. Yeah, that might not be aesthetically pleasing to have a turret/dome sticking out right there under the light/above doorbell.. Think I gotta keep thinking on this/gathering opinions before I figure out what camera to get now.

Oh man, sorry for not enough photos! Added more to the original post! Can't believe I didn't think about the light being in the FOV and messing the video up. Thanks! Because I get Amazon packages delivered right there on doorstep, I should probably still want to be able to get person walking...

Hello! About to put in my first order for one camera and will build up from there. Recently was able to score an Optiplex on Ebay for a good price so will be going the Blue Iris route. Will be ordering this for my front door camer: NSC-2X2-DM 2MP WDR EXIR Turret IP Security Camera 2.8mm -...

wow quick reply! thanks for the info! Hmm.. if I have to buy a new chip, maybe I'll just stick with the NVR I listed for now and think about building a better PC for BI later. New HVAC/car/roof in one year makes me have to budget my "fun" purchases now with the wife, ha :\ Since the main reason...

Hey everyone! I've been wanting to get some security cameras for the house for awhile now, and finally really starting to dig in and do some research. From everything I've read, seems like people love the Hikvisions and order from AliExpress. For some reason, I just can't get myself to purchase...
