Nvidia quietly boosts the video encoding capabilities of GeForce GPUs The video encoding hardware built into GeForce GPUs is getting a small boost, according to a quietly updated Nvidia support page (as spotted by Tom's Hardware). Previously, the NVENC encoder built into GeForce GPUs could...

Looks like Colorado, maybe Denver metro area?

Installed an SD Card, formatted it. Setup camera based monitoring so it will record to the SD card, Captured a few events, watched in the IE browser (with plug-ins), no audio, just static Downloaded both the dav and mp4 versions of a clip here for review. Reset cam back to factory defaults and...

@Wildcat_1 Thanks for the reply. Details. 1. I tried IE (with plug-in), FF, and Chrome Edge, all three just give me static, no actual sounds while viewing the Live page and BI web. Again, I get more static when I turn off the Noise Filter, so it does seem to be doing something. 2. I do not. I'll...

I cannot get this cam to provide any sound, just static if I turn the volume way up. Not in the Live playback, nor via Blue Iris. Audio is enabled. I do hear a difference in the amount of static when turning the Noise Filter on and off, but just no actual sounds, just static. Any thoughts?

@misio9 Any update on your focus issues? The focus on these cams has me somewhat concerned. The focus as show by @Wildcat_1 videos has a seems lot of issues past a short distance.

@rockyjones Have you upgraded to 5.4.9.1 or above? Those versions do contain the fix for the crashing I was seeing.

Here is the answer from Ken, at least for my issue. "This MAY have been in the motion detector. Coincidentally, I did find/correct a potential crash issue there for 5.4.9. Please let me know if this continues and provide the new crash details, as well as please narrow this to occur only when...

Again, server grade hardware. ECC memory, redundant power supplies, etc, all power protected via industrial UPSs. I can assure you that if the hardware was having issues I would see it in my monitoring tools.

Now that statement I can agree with. There might be some edge case I'm falling into, but that still means that I've run into a defect in the application in that edge case.

Again, 100% stable for years up until April of this year when BI started to have random crashes. I know my hardware and setups, they are not at fault. Saying "most others don't have this issue" is a fallacy as no one likely uses BI in exactly the same way. I may be using features that others are...

That's the beauty of running Server 2019, I have full control over updates and drivers. Nothing goes onto this system unless I want it to. The last time I updated Intel video drivers was back in December 2020. These issues started in April and have gotten progressively worse with each BI...

I've not had any issues with BI crashing like this ever. My system has been 100% stable until recently and I know there have been no changes to the system as I run on this on server grade hardware and Server 2019. Looks like these issues started around April with BlueIris.exe, version...

Same here. I've tried to find a stable version to no avail. Faulting application name: BlueIris.exe, version: 5.4.7.11, time stamp: 0x60c3cf97 Faulting module name: BlueIris.exe, version: 5.4.7.11, time stamp: 0x60c3cf97 Exception code: 0xc0000005 Fault offset: 0x00000000011393f0 Faulting...

If your CPU is too new to use the ONE driver listed in the wiki that does not have issues, you're out of luck. Just turn off intel quick sync, report the issue to support and maybe at some point in the future this defect might be mitigated or fixed.

@SouthernYankee Windows home server 2011 is basically Windows XP as you probably know. I would not be surprised if the drivers just don't support the GPU offload that well.

Not necessarily. I've been running BI on my Xeon servers for almost ten years. Just like anything else BI related you need to understand what you're purchasing and why. My BI install runs alongside other Windows functions that require ECC memory for long term stability of the data. So its a...

I have three of these for about 2.5 years. No problems and very bright. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01G6K407Q

Andy, any newer firmware updates for this model?

@Dseg42 I too have had trouble with Dahua cams becoming delayed (sometimes over 2-3 mins) in BlueIris. I believe I have solved this but it requires two changes 1) Use H264 and not H265 on the Dahua camera 2) Change the “Receive Buffer” in BI to 1MB or less for the Dahua cams. I have never had...

Hey @rhui_BC, welcome. I run BlueIris on Server 2016, but not as a service. Yes, you do need to have the CPU and drivers to support quick sync, but its works just fine. Just use Windows 10 drivers.

I just received cams from Andy today that I ordered on Monday. No issues.

@wopi82 Just to clarify, does this mean you think that the 102 or the 87 FOV is the correct number?

Thanks for the review @wopi82. One small constructive criticism though when doing your review, can you make sure that the primary camera you're reviewing stays on either the left or right in both the stills and videos? I kept having to look at the headers to determine which camera was which...

All, please keep in mind that just having this MS patch does not fully protect you from these issues. You will need to install the CPU microcode update as well, this will come from your motherboard vendor in the form of a BIOS update. The reports I'm seeing are showing that with the MS patch...

Microsoft released KB4056892 on January 3, 2018 to address the Meltdown and Spectre CPU issues. This fix basically removes speculative execution from the CPU and made some major changes to the OS. Kernel calls just became more expensive for all applications, especially applications that use a...

I think he was trying to tell you you're holding the camera wrong.....

I do live in a safe and quiet neighborhood, but you just don't know what's going on unless you're watching. The following video was shot 1 week after I installed my very first cam. The perp was caught, prosecuted and in now serving time. My son left his door unlocked that night. He never...

Do you really back your cars into the garage?

I got the impression that this forum was for the BI Windows mobile app, but I cannot find it in the apps store. Has it not been created yet?
