I am having same problem,, works fine with other apps, I am running BI 5.7.0.5 and it is decoding a dozen IP cameras just fine. In fact I have two systems doing the identical thing with two different cameras?? I have deleted the camera and re-created it with all the defaults, no joy

Found it, same place as clips. DUH

So running V5.7.0.5, and saw something interesting on a camera right clicked it and selected snapshot, but now cannot figure out where that file is.? I looked in settings/storage but don't see a place to enter a location for snapshots.. Anybody know where that might be? It would be the default...

running 5.7.0.5 2-22-23 When In layout mode if I drag a camera from one desktop frame to another it does not move until I adjust the size of the desktop frame then it magically moves to the target frame. Is there a setting I need to change so that it dynamically updates?

Here is popup After fiddling a bit if I select default for both main and sub streams in BI and put in /Streaming/Channels/101 for main and /Streaming/Channels/103 for sub (i have 3rd stream enabled in cam) It seems to work, it's just bothering me that I don't get the correct drop-down in BI...

I have BI system with numerous HIK cameras working fine. Trying to add new one and don't seem to be able to select main and sub streams in configuration. If I find/inspect and Go with defaults BI can connect to the camera but cannot select Main and sub streams as in attached file new cam.png If...

Camera is visible via web browser. But when I try to add in BI with fine inspect or manually specifing I get error

Hey, that folder rename worked nice :-), Thanks so much!

I am good with that, but on Windows 10 it seems like it automaticly converted IE into edge. Is there a way to download an IE installable that Windows won't update? I'm not quite sure how this is working with Microsoft

Hi, I have multiple DS-2CD2042 cameras and now cannot access them with any browser, I get browser not supported. Running 5.5.82_190220_0 3/17/2023 I have a number of DS-2CD2085 as well and I can access those with Edge/opera. I have tried setting Edge in IE mode but no dice, same error. I...

Thanks for this, I never thought of that but I do have spotter cams in the field of view for the PTZ cam I want to add. I am currently using HIK bullet cams, would you reccomend a particular brand for the PTZ I want to add? Reolink look cheap dont know if they are any good?

Do any of the HIK (or any other mfgr) PTZ cams have the ability to set up a patrol with presets but if it detects motion/person/auto then flip over to motion tracking until end of motion then go back to patrolling? I did a quick search but didnt see anything.

Thanks Flintstone 61, I did mess around with the allocated space (up and down) and it didn't seem to make any difference. I'm now trying what I mentioned above which is moving the clips from each storage Drive to a temporary drive, then reformatting the storage Drive (with 1024) and moving the...

OK thanks for this. I have a spare drive of same size as storage drives. based on what you say, I was thinking on moving the clips from each drive to the spare, then formatting storage drive with 1024 cluster, then move the clips back to storage drives. Will this work or do I need to just format...

Hi folks, I have one concern and one question. The concern is that on the BI interface the little graphic that shows the chart on it above the clip previews is showing red, and when I click on it I get a clip storage overview that looks like attached. As you can see Drive E: does not look...

I wiped the drive and now it seems to be recording all cameras correctly. I will just have to wait till it fills up. I had to replace a drive on this system a while back and I copied all the clips on it to the new drive. Not sure its the E: drive I replaced but i/m guessing it was.

OK here is something weird I just noticed, 99.9% of the files are from 1 camera.. Maybe I need to wipe the directory?

Actually there isnt anything else except stored directory.

Isn't Overallocated Shortage an Oxymoron? Anyway I have it on drive E: Stored.. Setup is I have 12 cameras, 3 8th storage drives that are identical. 4 cameras point to each drive and each drive deletes after its limit. System has been working fine for some time and nothing has changed. tried...

Problem solved, Was indeed a drive that was going bad, kinda working and kinda not. It would go to 100% utilization and stay there for long periods of time. I figured it couldn't write the clips correctly and they were just been stockpiled in memory and filling it up till BI crashed. Thanks...

I now suspect a defective drive. That it cant delete files or delete correctly and that its backing up into system memory. see attached log file second line, says "2525 Locked" for this drive, what ever that is?? next stop is to stop cameras recording to that drive only and see what happens. Its...

Well I thought that the BI disk allocation/delete function was supposed to do that automatically?

E: is the one working overtime

New development: I removed the GTX960 and just ran 1 monitor off the Intel GC and the BI crashed. So doesent sound like GC/drivers is the problem? I noticed something else. I have 3 8TB drives in the system of which the cameras are equally divided amongst. I have each drive delete after its...

No. and that is what I am messing with now. The sister system uses the onboard Intel GC. The failing system uses a GTX960 with 2 monitors connected, normally 1 monitor is powered on but sometimes no monitor is powered on and sometimes 2 monitors are powered on. Im running 445.75 driver and just...

The sister system is decoding and recording (on motion) the same cameras as the problem child system is decoding/recording

I have read a couple of the other posts talking about big memory consumption but I don't see any resolution to the problem. The problem for me is BI crashes after between a few hours and a few days. Windows 10 pro does not crash. So my setup is BI 5.5.13 (and other versions do the same thing)...

Oh, you mean Joe Biden

Okay, excuse my ignorance but what is Andy's handle on this forum? Or more specifically how do I follow his posts?

Okay sounds good, I love a bargain and I'm addicted to cameras!
