    Blue Iris isn't recording anything after months of flawless performance.

    Ok, quick update. I ran home for lunch and decided to play with my install for a few minutes. I shut down the service and moved all my BI storage folders (db/Storage/New/Alerts) into a backup folder and created a fresh set. Booted back up the service and everything appears to be working again...

    Blue Iris isn't recording anything after months of flawless performance.

    Thanks for the reply, this makes sense. Unfortunately I'm not sure what version I was running prior to making the switch to the latest update before my license expired. Can you share what version you are running? I might give that one a try and see if I can get this resolved! lol

    Blue Iris isn't recording anything after months of flawless performance.

    Good point. I did update to a recent build just before my license was about to expire. What is the most stable build that is recommended now?

    Blue Iris isn't recording anything after months of flawless performance.

    Thanks. I'm hoping it doesn't come down to this. The ONLY thing running on this machine is Blue Iris and Deepstack. It was originally a bare bones Windows 10 install. I have windows updates turned off and only VNC into the machine every few weeks or so. Everything else is done through the web UI.

    Blue Iris isn't recording anything after months of flawless performance.

    Yep, I've run deepstack for almost a year and haven't had any major issues. I think I've had to rebuild a database once or twice after a power outage but nothing more than that. That's why I was so surprised when I woke up this morning to see everything had just come to a halt.

    Blue Iris isn't recording anything after months of flawless performance.

    Thanks, I'll try this when I get home. What makes me think this is specifically something tied to BI, is that I don't see the orange box motion triggers around my video feeds when something is in frame. It's as if Blue Iris isn't even looking for any motion. My timeline and clips are completely...

    Blue Iris isn't recording anything after months of flawless performance.

    It appears that BI stopped making any recordings yesterday around 8:30pm. I have a 6 camera setup and have never had any issues until today. I immediately ran a DB repair and rebooted the PC but it didn't seem to help at all. I'm running version: 5.7.7.18 x64. And all storage drive appears to be...

    Andy - Any luck uploading the new firmware? I just placed my Amazon order a couple days ago and am waiting for it to arrive. Hopefully this hurricane doesn't slow things down too much!

    A few more captures (Car break in's and shitty loitering truck)

    That's really impressive, although I'm guessing you have a couple pointed in the same direction, one with a wide angle and another zoomed in? I can't imagine picking up these images on the wide angle shot?

    A few more captures (Car break in's and shitty loitering truck)

    Which camera captured this plate from that distance, was that the 5442? I'm impressed with that level of zoom....not to mention you really have them dialed in well @ night. Very nice!

    What doorbell camera in 2022?

    I'll throw the Amcrest AD410 in the mix. I've owned one since the beginning of the year. It's strictly a WIFI doorbell, but does integrate nicely with Blue Iris and no monthly fee associated with it.

    New Day! New Problem!

    That did it! I'll be honest, I never would have thought that HA would have caused all this mess....I initially just increased the buffer but still noticed inconsistencies so I decided to turn off HA and haven't had a single glitch. Thanks again! Much appreciated!

    New Day! New Problem!

    Microsoft Defender is turned off and this machine is dedicated to Blue Iris so nothing else except DeepStack is running on it. The issue is it's not a consistent problem and it's been hard to catch. Just thought maybe someone had some insights or a similar issue they were able to solve in the...

    New Day! New Problem!

    Well now that I purchased Blue Iris and can officially write direct to disk, a lot of the choppiness that I was experiencing has gone away....However I still get these weird glitches when recording and playing back. I can't figure out what is causing it. I'm running three camera's (two IP...

    Server Status FPS

    Thanks! I appreciate everyone's feedback and I was able to dial down the FPS on the client side. Although as suspected it didn't make much impact on the 'choppiness' of the playback and recordings. The more I think about it, the demo version can't be utilizing Direct to Disk recording even...

    Server Status FPS

    Thanks I appreciate the explanation...Is this a setting in UI3 or BI? I adjusted the streaming profile I use (1080p VBR) to Frame Rate of 15 but it still shows 30 FPS being deliver in the Server Status window. I'm trying to narrow down why my recording are so choppy before I make the leap and...

    Server Status FPS

    I'm still trying to wrap my head around Blue Iris.....Help me understand the Server Status window on UI3.....Specifically the FPS meter. I have all my cameras set to 15fps main/sub as well as keyframes. Yet during playback watch the FPS jump to 30? I don't understand where it's getting this...

    Blue Iris - Occupied? What am I doing wrong?

    Disclosure: I'm VERY to Blue Iris and have been reading a ton of threads trying to fine-tune my setup...While I getting close, I still have time where BI sends me an 'occupied' alert instead and what I think is a pretty easily identified object (in this case a car, see clip below). My setup is...

    Amcrest 5MP POE Security Camera System

    Thanks for all the great feedback everyone. Now you got me leaning towards getting a couple 5442's instead of the Amcrest Kit. So since I'm rethinking my entire setup, is there a better (affordable) NVR that I should look at or will the AmCrest NV4108E work?
