Thanks for the reply. That's super odd. It's got to be something specific to Blue Iris, right? In almost any other setup, QS is the preferred options for video processing (encoding/transcoding). With my Plex media server it was day and night difference in favor of QS. I guess I can just turn...

Hi, I've been running BI for several years with only few issues. Recently, I was curious about how to verify quicksync was working. Everything I have read where you can verify it's working indicate that maybe it isn't; however, I can't find any reason why it wouldn't be. I have a 12th Gen i5...

Thanks! That actually makes sense. I'm not currently setup in that config, I've sort of just been seeing that the IP address was on the device that the DHCP handed out, and then changing that ip address to static; however, it sure would help me keep everything better organized if I changed...

Thanks Tony, can you elaborate on what you mean by: BTW, if need be, you can log into the router at its LAN/gateway IP and change that DHCP pool to your liking, setting a range for ample DHCP devices and leaving a range suitable for your static devices.

I have a cheap chinese camera, that I've had installed for a while. I was troubleshooting some issues and decided to reset to factory. It's been a while, so I don't recall what I may have had to go through initially when I set it up; however, resetting to factory defaulted to a different subnet...

@wittaj , thank you for the reply. When you say "system restore" do you mean within BI or windows? I don't have system restore turned on in windows, but I'm not aware of that option in BI. When you ask for me to post screenshots of storage settings, what settings specifically would you like to...

I just noticed that blue iris wasn't recording any clips (all my cameras are set to continuous). I looked in the logs and see an error that says "clip: disk full" and also "add to BIDB failed". Under clip storage status, it shows I have over 2 tb available. I deleted my db so it could rebuild...

I have a hikvision clone camera I'm using with blueiris. The camera has worked well for a couple years. Recently, I migrated to a new blueiris server and shortly after the move, I've started having problems with the camera (the POE source also changed at the same time as the server). The camera...

Make and Model: It's a hikvision clone Cameras are hardwired Cameras are using a 24 port Unifi enterprise switch I don't believe I could be exceeding the power of my switch. The switch has 400w POE power and I only have 6 devices connected to it. Sorry if I sound like an idiot, but where do I...

Thanks @wittaj , I tried that, and 1/2 a day later it said "no signal". I just went back into camera settings, hit "find/inspect" and now it's back. So weird. No idea what's happening and why. Is there a more detailed log somewhere where I might be able to identify more details as to what's...

Hello, I have quite a few cameras from various manufacturers connected to blue iris. one of my cameras continuously goes offline within blue iris only (meaning, I can still access it from the mfr app, just not in blue iris. What's weird, is if I go into camera settings within blue iris, go to...

After doing some additional reading, I'm thinking maybe this happened when I setup sub-streams. That was one of the steps I took to reduce CPU usage. Would this have had that kind of impact? If so, what is the correct step to take to resolve? I've played with deepstack a little and that seemed...

Good morning. I am using the latest version of BI. I have about 9 cameras in my system. Recently, I started watching different tutorials on adjusting settings to minimize the CPU/Memory impact. So I've changed a LOT of things. Somewhere along the lines I must have changed something that...

@aristobrat You are a freakin' lifesaver man! I owe you a beer. It was exactly as you said, and it appears to be back to normal. I have other questions about my system, but I won't clutter this thread just in case it helps someone else. Thank you much my man!

CPU is an i5 3570k 3.4 GHz...I can't recall the generation, but it's definitely older. Most of my cameras are Hikvision, however, the camera in particular that I suspect is the problem is a Hikvision clone. I was following a guide to reduce CPU load, and don't recall what step I was on...but...

Yes, I disabled the service and then when I try to start BI, I get a "service failed to start" error. I don't know if once you have enabled BI as a windows service...if the service has to be running in order for BI to start...

Hi, I was making some changes to my system because I had one camera that wouldn't allow more than .4 mb resolution on the main stream. In the process...I was also reading some forums on making some changes to reduce the load on my cpu. Somewhere along the line BI just crashed and now I can't...

Thanks again bp2008. I have disabled UPnP on the router. I only enabled it to add the port forward automatically in hopes of that having a different result when I was troubleshooting. Thanks for the suggestion though. Regarding the dynamic dns issue....it's really strange. I have cleared...

Ok, progress. I tried installing blue iris on another computer on my network. And forwarded a different port to that computer. Everything worked fine and as expected. Strange. I then decided to completely uninstall BlueIris on my server and reinstall it....low and behold it worked right away...

Thank you please see attached screenshots. I have continued to try everything I can to get it to work. On the screenshot of the port forward, I have both port forward rules in there (the one the software put in via UPnP when it was enabled, and the one I manually put in); however, I have tried...

Thank you bp2008.....what screenshots would you suggest, each of the screens in the webserver wizard, and then the screenshot of the port forwarded in my router? Thanks again.

Hi folks. I'm new to Blue Iris and currently just running the eval copy. I only have one camera and the software is setup and functioning wonderfully. Now, I've moved on to trying to setup the webserver. I have a lot of experience with port forwarding as I run a media server and need to access...
