    Why does camera FPS in blueiris increases past camera's FPS?

    Odd as it was bought from Amazon.es not AliExpress etc, have to send it back I guess, I have some new ones coming from Andy who is recommended on here.

    Frame rate on mobile

    thanks, i have learnt a bit more on bit rate, and have bit rate capped, but, my camera is set to 7fps (changed last night), and yet bi still reports 25fps, so i can only assume now there is some fault on the camera as i have been told a few times now that bi max frame rate does nothing and the...

    Why does camera FPS in blueiris increases past camera's FPS?

    yes, i appreciate that, and your taking the time to reply, but i just don't get why my camera is set to (now) 7fps and bit rate max 1024 on quality 4 etc but bi shows 25fps, so as this is a forum on ipcms (not just bi) I was now suggesting maybe a fault on the cameras, and, as others seem to...

    Why does camera FPS in blueiris increases past camera's FPS?

    I have similar issue, my dahua camera is set to 7fps, in blue iris it is registering 25, always, cannot work out what is going on, been at it all day, I have but rate fixed real life, fps at 7, etc etc, bi always reports 25, if I get it to stick to 7 in bi for a minute my recordings are 1.5mb...

    Frame rate on mobile

    but surely if i capped bit rate at 1280 (not sure what that equates to in fps) how could it send bi 25fps, its just odd, as i had it all setup, it ran one night and 1 hr of video was 44mb, last night (no settings changed on camera or BI) 1hr of footage was 130mb, same environment, same camera...

    Frame rate on mobile

    even more strange then as the camera was 100% set to 8fps main stream and 5fps sub stream, I was running lots of tests the other night to find the best trade off in quality/file size etc and set on 8fps, vbr, bitrate capped to 1280, etc, but was sending 25fps this morning despite camera showing...

    Frame rate on mobile

    seems on further investigation this is not watching a video, if i set the camera in bi to 10 fps, it is ok for about 15 seconds, then goes back to 25fps regardless, always, 20 times over it did this. so i went to camera settings, i had that set to h265 no smart codex, vbr, 8fps (which had all...

    Frame rate on mobile

    i found the bug in BI! So, you set frame rate to 10fps, all ok. But, if you had an older video of a higher frame rate (25fps) and watch that video it resets the video fps on that camera to that video frame rate (25 fps). So, I set my fps to 10, i double checked it was saved, said 10fps, i...

    Frame rate on mobile

    Here is an odd thing I just noticed. See the screenshots. On the mobile app you can see it is reporting a frame rate of near 25, but if you look at camera set up it is set to 5 on mobile and 8 on desktop, and in bi it is called to 10. Why does the mobile report wrongly? Any ideas? Thanks Darren

    Good mini pc for running BI

    oh, i read on here in a few places that high res cameras like the 8mb star light not as good as the 2mb at night due to letting in less light, maybe altering the resolution down on a higher mb camera still doesn't let in more light. I did a lot of testing last night on getting a good trade off...

    sorry, the file could not be found

    i think this thread: Will this desktop suffice for Blue Iris (BI) is pretty similar issue, so in the camera settings i have gone back to h265, smart codec off and in bi turned off all hardware acceleration, seems to be recording ok.

    sorry, the file could not be found

    so the fault lies somewhere in the camera video setting, if i have it set to intel it does not record video (only alert videos record that then wont play as they dont correlate to the continuous recording), if i turn it off intel and onto default it works and it records video. I have (as...

    sorry, the file could not be found

    and spoke to soon, it just did it, screen shots following now, only thing I did change (I think before this test) was changing camera to h264 and changed decoding to intel (again to get rid of the yellow exclamation mark) as before when i changed that i didnt change to the h264, so i changed to...

    Good mini pc for running BI

    ok, was just trying to find something nice, small and quiet to hide it away (i.e behind a tv so could switch to hdmi 2 for instance to view cameras), but, take your point on the overheating. I have them set to 10fps mostly and resolution at 2560x1440 (unless nighttime light is poor then will...

    sorry, the file could not be found

    and what is odd, is, the first video on the alert clip tab shows 16 secs long, on the green All clip tab 22 seconds (this vid plays), the 2nd video on the alerts clip tab shows 24 secs, but on the "All" green play clips tab shows 00 secs (guess thats why that wont play, but why 00 seconds, dont...

    sorry, the file could not be found

    well the above does not seem to be the answer, with no setting changes i just had 2 motion detections 2 minutes apart, one vid shows as 16 secs long and plays just fine, the 2nd video about 2 mins later shows as 24 secs long and when trying to view just says "sorry....." :-(

    sorry, the file could not be found

    Thanks for coming back to me @fenderman but before posting screenshots I "think" i might have figured it (think being the operative word). Basically when I first setup the system I had h265 setup on camera, and, in BI i had it set to decode Nvidia cuda (all working ok), then i noticed the...

    sorry, the file could not be found

    not sure if related or whats going on, but on the right looking at clips if i have the All showing (green arrow) the vidoes seem to be 00sec, and, each time a trigger it is creating a new one (even tho i have no combine or cut set), if i click alert clips there are videos there with time against...

    Hi, hope someone can help, not sure what i have done in BI :-( I did have it all working with one profile, as in i had the triggers/alerts, could see the video clips etc. I then setup 3 profiles, home, away, night, i copied video properties to each profile. i changes profile 1 to not...
