    Cisco POE switch setup help?

    What do you use for a Router? Need replacement advice

    Ubiquiti is awesome. I used and edgerouter for about a year and it is rock solid, but a lot of command line involved. a few months ago i switched to the unifi line (USG/AP/switch/cloud key) and it is just as good but has prettier interfaces and gui for most functions. i love it. The other...

    Blue Iris UI3

    mac, safari, b10. i have noticed that when i zoom in on live view past 2.5-3x, the screen will sometimes go black. zooming back out sometimes makes it go back to normal. sometimes, i get an orange message box 'your CPU is not fast enough...'.

    Blue Iris UI3

    Mac, Safari, b10. Scrubbing through clips seems MUCH snappier! And it does not blur. Very nice job!!!!

    Blue Iris UI3

    is anyone else having issue with scrubbing playback of clips? both safari and chrome exhibit the same issue. blurry image during scrubbing. playback is fine, just holding down the timeline handle causes blurry images, making itimposible to scrub through and see the image. when you let go of...

    Blue Iris UI3

    mac, safari. web server settings: quality % is at 50% and kbps is at 1500. in streaming view mode and jpeg mode, scrubbing through recorded clips is not as clean as UI2 or stock BI. UI3 goes blurry/out of focus with the spinning thing when i scrub/drag the timeline. when i release the...

    Blue Iris UI3

    after running a few hours (mac/safari), UI3 seems stuck. "the video stream stuck open, you should reload" in red. "video streaming connection is stuck open. you should reload" in red. it will not load. i've tried new tabs, closing, etc.

    unchecking the limit bandwidth does seem to make UI2 and UI3 quality equal. bravo!

    Blue Iris UI3

    I'm on a mac using safari, latest everything. seems to work perfectly out of the box with the exception of some PQ issues that someone noted on page 1. it is ever so slightly softer and looks a little grainy on the 9 camera overview page. I may need to play with my web server encoder...

    Backdoor found in Hikvision cameras

    Thanks, I thought so, but good to have experienced confirmation. I also use L2TP VPN for remote access and to not have any open/forwarded/visible ports. All this works great. I'm a networking novice, but I don't know how in the world normal people are supposed to be expected to set this stuff up.

    Backdoor found in Hikvision cameras

    Geez. I found this thread via a thread about the hikvision cube clone (which i just bought a month ago). I have Ubiquiti Unifi gear. the BI PC is on VLAN2 with no access to my main LAN. My IP camera group on VLAN2 is blocked from access WAN and my main LAN (cannot ping out to WAN or to...

    Will the Solar Eclipse fry my camera?!

    I'm in the totality also, but none of my cameras are pointed high enough to see the sun mid-day. I'm really interested to see the view of normal earth stuff during this. The yard going dark, animals, etc. i'll be sure to save my footage from the eclipse time.

    network time utility - help with windows 10 firewall

    I setup a router firewall rule to block outbound traffic from my cameras. cameras are in 192.168.2.150-192.168.2.190. This seems to be working properly. my BI/nettime server is 192.168.2.100 (where i installed the nettime app as a service, with 'allow other computers to sync to this computer'...

    'Combine or cut' does so before time limit

    BVR, direct-to-disc continuous recording, motion sensor on, 6 hik/dahua cams, i7, 4gb. combine or cut set to 4 hours. it seems like this should save a new clip every 4 hours and, with a 4 hour interval, synchronizes the cut to midnight, 4am, 8 am, and so on. However, i'm getting clips cut at...

    recent issue...poor wan streaming w/ios app

    thanks. the encoder profiles are at default, the first setting. tried the others, no different. in the mean time, i finally setup a VPN on my router and it works fine. i probably should have done this a long time ago. i'll monitor the updates to see if my other issue gets fixed (the last 2...

    I'm still having cellular iOS app problems on 4.5. intermittent login failures (but can eventually connect after 3-4 tries), 10+ second delay in loading live cameras, camera images in live view are often rainbow test patterns, clicking on an individual camera works after a 10+ second delay...

    Remote access static ip

    yes, it takes forever (10+ seconds) on mine as well on 4.5.x. 4.4.x was zippy. i reloaded 4.4, works like it always did. upgraded to 4.5 and it sometimes gives me a login error, eventually logs in, gives rainbows on camera previews, but will usually eventually works. something changed.

    The PC is about 3 years old. This weekend I reinstalled win 10 on a 1TB drive that I had. I installed the problematic 3TB as a D drive, formatted it, and set up blue iris to store all data files on D. It worked fine for about a day and until a reboot, then the D drive (3 TB problem one)...
