This is soo sad but honestly true. Ugh. My guess is that you are correct. How useful is it to track the wife or kids around various cameras in the house? I guess it would be cool to track guests or strangers around, but as you said, in a home environment with limited cams its probably a...

Does anyone have an AcuPick enabled NVR & Camera that can provide some unbiased feedback on just how useful this AI feature actually is and if they feel it was worth the upgrade? Specifically I am wondering how well the accuracy is and if it requires face-level cameras to accurately work or...

Thanks guys, I changed from ONVIF to Dahua New v4 in PTZ settings and that resolved the issue. Thanks again!

Is anyone else having problems with the 3D Positioning feature in Blue Iris? Any recommended troubleshooting steps to try? I have the SD5A425XA-HNR from Andy @ EmpireTech and everything works great, when I am using the NVR I can drag a red box around the POI and it will center in on that box...

I have the Dahua SD5A425XA-HNR 4MP 25x Starlight IR PTZ that I bought from Andy @ EmpireTech about 2 years ago, specifically for the Auto PTZ feature and I must say that it works VERY well. I'm not using spotter cams (although I should give that a try one day) but again just wanted to...

My old i7-6700 finally started to crap out after 7 years of running 24/7 so after some research I decided to get the Intel NUC 12 Enthusiast Edition from B&H Photo & Video which has the i7-12700H and threw in 64GB Ram along with a Gen4 NVMe all for around 2K shipped overnight. It's...

Thanks, so in the Clips & Archiving screen should I leave the folder path blank since its set on the main FTP settings page?

I have FTP backups configured in BI Settings to my NAS and have a base folder set as "/BlueIris/Stored/" which passes the test successfully. Now when I go to Clips & Archiving and set up the New folder to queue for backup, do I need to enter "/BlueIris/Stored/" again or would that resort in...

Thanks for the heads up and this makes sense why it's not widely talked about here, just needs some more time for the feature to mature before giving it a shot. Any ideas on how to prevent 5-10 alerts when someone is passing by 5-10 cameras to take the trash out and all of them are giving push...

Currently, have BI + DeepStack running and for the most part, it works great but it's annoying when a family member walks outside to take the trash out thus walking by 6 different cameras and setting the alerts off like crazy. I'd like to receive alerts only when an unknown face is detected but...

Lets be honest here, this is exactly what everyone wants to see!

I have the NVR5432-16P-I that I bought from Andy with 16 cameras like the IPC-T5442TM-AS and SD5A425XA-HNR along with some older ONVIF cameras. I am trying to enable SMB for one of my older cameras (IP-5IR4002VFZ-W) and I can see its properly detecting motion with the yellow box around the...

I have the IPC-T5442TM-AS cameras and the NVR5432-16P-I recorder, I'd love to test SMD 3.0

Update: Figured out the problem so posting here in case someone else runs into the same issue. For the NVR schedule, I only had MD&Alarm + IVS selected (Thinking MD&Alarm = Motion Detection & Alarm) and that wasn't recording anything. When I switched to the "Motion + Alarm + IVS" selection...

Those screenshots were in Chrome. I download SmartPSS and also configured the schedule and rebooted the NVR, still its either record 24x7 or don't record at all. Screenshot: https://i.gyazo.com/6ce1fc300577582e835ca71f7ff24b1d.jpg

Hey guys I recently switched from a 16 Camera Blue Iris setup to the Dahua NVR5432-16P-I from Andy and I'm trying to set it to record motion/alarm/IVS events only but with "General" selected in the recording schedule it records every 24x7 and if I turn that off leaving MD&Alarm+IVS it appears...

If your looking for just a basic NVR expect to pay around $250. If your looking for something with some advanced AI to filter false alerts..etc expect to pay up to $1200 (not including HD). Really depends on your budget and goals. Of course with a lower budget there will be sacrifices...

Two great PTZ cameras to consider, both with auto-tracking.... SD49225XA-HNR (Under $400) SD5A425XA-HNR (Under $700)

The latest update 5.3.1.0 caused all 16 of my cameras to suddenly say RTSP not authorized however reverting back to 5.3.0.3 immediately fixed everything. I'm 100% positive the user/pass was correct and streams were available both internally and externally as expected and absolutely no settings...

Not to derail your thread but I see very limited feedback and reviews on the DHI-NVR5216-16P-I and since I'm looking to buy one from Andy this week I thought this might be my opportunity to ask... Do you use this NVR for home or commercial use? If for home use, do you feel its overkill with...

Are there any noticeable improvements to motion detection when pairing a smart AI NVR with a smart AI camera? For example, currently looking at the NVR5432-16P-I ($1,050) with the IPC-T5442TM-AS ($155 each) camera and SD5A425XA-HNR auto-tracking ptz ($690 each) in hopes that spending more...

Appreciate the tip @StratRider Since it sucks when people don't update a thread once they find a resolution I'll do my part and say that in my particular case I had my PTZ cameras directly connected to the NVR so I simply took the ethernet cable and moved it over to an open POE switch on my...

I see in the wiki and several other spots that Intel QuickSync is the best hardware decoder to reduce CPU usage on larger setups. I'm running BI on an i7-6900K which doesn't support QuickSync however I have a GTX 1070 video card on the machine so I was wondering if there were any benefits to...

I have 16 POE IP cameras going into my NVR (Different brand) and all those cameras get an IP from the NVR that is not on the same subnet as my network so I can not access the cameras "directly" however I am able to connect BlueIris to all my cameras by connecting to the output stream from the...

I currently have a 16 4mp IP POE camera system running through an NVR from Enssecurity.com (Model # ED9632H5NV-16P), two of them are 20x PTZ cameras. Everything works great except I have about 50 palm trees that extensively cover the property and cause extreme shading issues and false alerts...

Hey Guys, I have a 16 camera system running through an NVR from Enssecurity.com (Model # ED9632H5NV-16P) and I have everything working with BlueIris for the past year or so just fine but can never figure out how to get the PTZ commands to work so that I can control my two PTZ devices through...

Im a bit confused on why you need the PushSafer app because BI sends push alerts directly to your device and does it instantly. Delay time is under half a second for me.

Hey guys for the past 6+ months I'm unable to view my UI3 through Chrome but works just fine on Safari or Firefox. Tested this on 3 different computers, all do the exact same thing. Is there something in Chrome causing this? It just sits there trying to load the page for 30+ min, never gives...

Well shoot me in the foot. After spending hours playing around with settings, researching drivers...etc I failed to notice the red pause icon in the top right of the screen that says "Pause Live" and as soon as I clicked that, everything worked great again, no freezing lol. Maybe this is a...

Hey guys, avid Blue Iris user here for the past 2 years or so. Currently running the latest update (5.0.5.8 x64) and suddenly I notice that the live view for all cameras (I have 17 IP cameras) is suddenly freezing after about 1 second. If i go to a specific camera, the picture updates then it...
