    One camera not deleting footage

    I've been moving and adjusting the settings so I'm not sure on the 1TB mark. It's normally just set for 2 days. If i look at the NAS, there are no clips on it from just that one camera. All the other camera clips appear to be there. For just this one camera, all clips are staying only on the...

    One camera not deleting footage

    We have a system with 26 cameras. There is a local 3TB drive and a 12TB NAS. I have it set so that NEW footage is record to the local drive. Limits are set to- size: 1000GB, age: 2 days. All of the camera clips are then STORED on the NAS. That has a limit of 9000GB. My issue is that we...

    Horizontal Pixelated Band

    I had these same issues with the Hikvision Panovu 4 lens camera. I don't remember the model but I think it was the DS-2CD6D54FWD-Z. BI Support never got back with me and I could never find a good solution. BI just never got the stream right. Clarity would go in and out, colors would shift...

    Review-Dahua PSDW5631S-B360 panoramic 360 camera.

    Is there an outdoor version of this camera or something like it? Would work great at a roundabout.

    DS-2CD2765G0-IZS Opinions?

    I'm looking to purchase and install some new cameras. DS-2CD2765G0-IZS Hikvisions. Has anyone used them? Opinions? I tried a couple of a new Hikvision Panovu model that was horrible in that they kept failing withing just a couple of weeks and they never worked with Blue Iris. All the...

    Pixelation, Freezing, and Drops on new DS-2CD6D54FWD-IZHS

    Never did hear back from the dev at Blue Iris and the camera is dead. Need to find a replacement camera or 2 separate cameras with wider angles.

    Multi-Lens Camera Recommendation

    Well, now I need to find a new camera. This one is dead. On reboot, no IR, no ping, nothing. Plug a laptop straight into the Injector and no link at all. This is the second to die in a month. I expect a lot more out of a camera this expensive!

    Pixelation, Freezing, and Drops on new DS-2CD6D54FWD-IZHS

    I've sent another email to support. It's been a week. Anyone have any ideas on what else I can do to get some help?

    Multi-Lens Camera Recommendation

    I need the camera to always be recording the areas, not just when a guard needs to look and see.

    Multi-Lens Camera Recommendation

    I sent an email last Wed. I'm hoping he can as its a really nice camera. Just prepping in case it doesn't work.

    Multi-Lens Camera Recommendation

    I'm trying and failing miserably at getting the Hikvision DS-2CD6D54FWD-IZHS working in Blue Iris and I'm afraid it may just not work. I'd like a single multi-lens camera capable of getting 270deg of coverage. It will be complimented with License Plate cameras. This Panovu gives me everything...

    Pixelation, Freezing, and Drops on new DS-2CD6D54FWD-IZHS

    I've updated the firmware and reset the camera. (Oddly, after the firmware update only 2 of the lenses worked until a second reboot, even in the camera's web interface.) I've tried every combination of CBR and VBR I can think of.

    Pixelation, Freezing, and Drops on new DS-2CD6D54FWD-IZHS

    I have found that if I set the profile to Basic then the pixelation goes away. Skipping is still really bad but at least it's something. With the profile set to Basic and the I-Frame interval set to 1 it looks like the skipping goes away as well, but it's obviously an ugly image full of...

    Looks like I'm having the exact same problems as @Sybaris here: Horizontal Pixelated Band

    Pixelation, Freezing, and Drops on new DS-2CD6D54FWD-IZHS

    I believe the pixelation is an i-frame issue. If I set Frame Rate to 24 and adjust the i-frame the pixelation changes. I've tried 24/24, 24/12, 15/15 as well as other combinations. It only seems to happen if the bitrate is over 512, if that makes a difference.

    Pixelation, Freezing, and Drops on new DS-2CD6D54FWD-IZHS

    I've updated the installer and switched from High Profile to Main Profile but no change. The camera does the same thing even if plugged directly into the switch. I've also set up another PC with BI5 in Eval mode to test. At least it allows me to shift around settings quickly.

    Pixelation, Freezing, and Drops on new DS-2CD6D54FWD-IZHS

    Can I update to the last version of V4 if I'm not on a maintenance contract? I recall trying that before on another machine and it updated but requested a new license.

    Pixelation, Freezing, and Drops on new DS-2CD6D54FWD-IZHS

    First off, I'm running Blue Iris 4.8.4.6 x64. I'm a little leery about upgrading to V5 given the problems people have been reporting so I've been holding off. I'm replacing 2 Mobotix cameras, a D14 and a D15 with a new Hikvision Panovu DS-2CD6D54FWD-IZHS. This is a 4-lens camera that shows...

    Very strange signal loss

    I just realized that the cameras having problems are all D16 cameras. The D14 and D15 cameras are fine. I'm running Release 4.8.2.2 x64. Could it be that I need to update BI? The camera make and model selected is Mobotix D14 since that was the current model when these came out. Does the...

    Very strange signal loss

    I have remote gate cameras (a mix of Mobotix D14, D15, and D16 cameras) that periodically show signal loss in Blue Iris. There is a single public IP assigned to a modem, that connects to a PoE switch, that connects to the cameras and the gate. There is no router and the port forwards are done...

    Direct To Disk no Recordings

    It looks like it was the flip left/right that was doing it but only on direct-to-disk. On re-encode it processed normally. Interesting.

    Direct To Disk no Recordings

    I may have narrowed it down to the Model selected in the Video->Configure area. Those cameras set to "(MxPEG OFF)" do not record on direct-to-disk. Those set to "D14,M12/22/25 JPEGs" appear to. I'll keep looking into that. One of the cameras also gets messed up when switched and appears to...

    Direct To Disk no Recordings

    There are 2 cameras up there, each with 2 lenses for a total of 4 cameras inside a dual dome housing that mounts to a pole. It is all painted up and looks very neat and professional. We'll be adding some License Plate cameras (if we can ever get quotes back from electricians) and, given the...

    Direct To Disk no Recordings

    Looks like the D16s do but the D14s and D15s don't. They are so expensive I just expected them to have it. That's what I get for assuming. Is there another camera that could fill their spot? I've looked but Hikvision doesn't seem to, nor does Vivotek (the 2 other brands I'm familiar with).

    Direct To Disk no Recordings

    I'm trying to cut CPU usage and will be adding more cameras so I'm trying to use the Direct-To-Disk option again. My problem is that, on some of the cameras, once I turn it on nothing gets recorded. What should I be checking? Edit: The red box still shows up indicating it is seeing movement...

    Need advice for a new BI server

    We're using version 4 so it's current. Hardware Acceleration must work without Direct to Disk enabled as it had a large affect when I enabled it on CPU cycles. The overview cameras are 1MP@15fps. Those we want to upgrade to 2MP@15fps. The license cameras and facial cameras are 2-3MP@30fps...

    Need advice for a new BI server

    It's been a while since I went through the optimization but I've done everything except switch to direct-to-disk. I remember trying that but can't remember the issues it created. I think there were gaps in the video or they couldn't be played or something. I'll set it on 3 cameras that aren't...

    Need advice for a new BI server

    We have a BI server using a Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E3-1245 v5. There are 12 HD cameras connected to it (6 Mobotix D14/D15s, 2 Mobotix Q's, and a smattering of Vivotek 1MP and 2MP cameras) and running maxed out. With the interface up it's pegged at 100% and watching recordings are choppy. With...
