    firmware updates and panning questions with the IPC-T5442T-ZE

    I got a IPC-T5442T-ZE to try out and am having a couple of issues. First, I thought firmware updates would be on the dahua site (DahuaWiki). I don't see 5442 in the list. Do I need to look under a different name? The other issue is that going through the camera directly to set it up, I can't...

    can't connect through blue iris android app to router's vpn

    I saw your guys' messages, connected to the vpn, went to the blue iris app and with a blank wan address tried connecting. It connected instantly. Then I tried putting in invalid addresses and ports in the wan box and it still worked, so it appears the wan box is ignored when connecting through...

    i5-3470 or i5-3570 worth trying with blue iris?

    That one was gone when I looked, but I did end up finding a Dell OptiPlex 3010 Core i5-3470 @ 3.2 GHz 8GB 500GB Windows 8 for $125. I grabbed that one. I figure worst case, it's an upgrade over my desktop I have now, so even if it doesn't handle blue iris well enough, I've got a better...

    i5-3470 or i5-3570 worth trying with blue iris?

    Ha. Yeah, I'm using a laptop right now. I know, how embarrassing. I've been using it for around 9 months. But, I'm taking a step in the right direction now ... Anyway, I have read through that post you linked. I get the gist of it. It recommends at least i5-6400 as far as i5s. I...

    i5-3470 or i5-3570 worth trying with blue iris?

    In light of some recent issues I've had with my current computer running blue iris, I've been considering upgrading. I'm not trying to cheap out here, but if I don't need to spend more, I don't want to. If I have to, I will, but I figured I'd check with you guys first on what I'm considering...

    blue iris suddenly a memory hog and at 100% cpu usage

    I'm testing out a different graphics driver right now. So far, after about 20 minutes, it's acting like it did before these problems started. But, for 2 days it looked like the problem was gone before. So, I'll be back if the problem comes back, or after a few days of it running. Either way...

    blue iris suddenly a memory hog and at 100% cpu usage

    I am happy to give details. I have spent a lot of time trying to figure out why blue iris quit working properly. That's why I'm here. I have four of the same camera - Hikvision 2042. The fifth one is a Dahua ... I'm not certain of the model, and am not in a place where I can check at the...

    blue iris suddenly a memory hog and at 100% cpu usage

    I did the upgrade to Windows 10. I then used the media creation tool to install a clean version of windows 10. I then installed blue iris. I have had for the last 9 months or so, 5 cameras setup in blue iris. While I was adding the 5th one, the cpu hit 100%. I guess I'm back to downgrading...

    blue iris suddenly a memory hog and at 100% cpu usage

    1. In blue iris, I have "no" selected, or whatever the exact wording is. I was referring to my graphics driver options. There was no option for hardware acceleration. But, yes, I have it turned off in the Blue Iris settings. 2. A clean install is possible ... I'm not familiar with the MS...

    blue iris suddenly a memory hog and at 100% cpu usage

    So I've searched and read many posts about this memory leak issue. The most common solutions/proposed solutions are ... 1. Turn off hardware acceleration. That's not even an option on my computer, so nothing to turn off. 2. Roll back the graphics driver. Driver version was - 10.18.10.3345 had...

    I've been using blue iris for around a year, and suddenly after restarting my computer that runs blue iris the other day, and doing the update it said was available, blue iris is running at 100% cpu and causing my computer to completely lock up. This is while idle, no cameras recording...

    How to ignore section on motion detection

    Thank you, hltljohn! Those are the exact steps. I searched through the help file last night, and I don't know why I didn't get it, maybe I should have read through it again after some sleep. Anyway, I appreciate your help. I'm sure this will help people who end up here in the future too...

    How to ignore section on motion detection

    I'm having an issue with a tree whose leaves recently came back blowing constantly in view of one of my cameras. The camera, for what it's worth, is a hikvision 2042. I know I set the sensitivity for recording in Blue Iris, but I don't see a place in Blue Iris to mask out areas. I messed with...

    Deleting clips in blue iris clip list not deleting files in new folder

    I was having an issue before about clips being appended together into large files. I got that figured out, so now each recorded clip is saved as their own individual file to the "new" folder. But now when I delete clips from the blue iris clip list in the gui the files in the "new" folder...

    Clips not saving individually, but as one huge file

    I think I answered my own question by reading a post I made about this same issue from almost 3 years ago. Weird. I don't see how to delete a post, but I think the answer is to go to Camera Properties->Record-> and uncheck Combine or Record ...

    Clips not saving individually, but as one huge file

    I bought the full version of blue iris about a month ago after doing the trial. I pretty much have the settings at default. I have 4 cameras right now recording through blue iris, so I get on average a couple of hundred clips a day. I can quickly go through these clips and see if there's...

    Hikvision iVMS-4200 client will not record

    I've been trying to figure out how to record using the iVMS-4200 version 2.20. The cameras show an alarm when there is motion, but nothing records. I can not figure out how to get it to record. I'm running the iVMS-4200 on a computer. I want it to record to the hard drive on the same...

    Camera on wrong subnet

    I got it straightened out. I had to go to my computer that has a static ip. I changed the IP to 192.168.1.x from 192.168.0.x and then changed the gateway from 255.255.255.0 to 255.255.0.0. I then accessed the new camera through the internet browser and changed the ip of the camera to...

    Camera on wrong subnet

    I have installed the Hikvision app, the SADP app. It shows the previously installed cameras all connected and "active" and it also show the new one on the wrong subnet as "inactive". (this is all under the "Device Management" tab). So, I click on the option to "Activate" the new camera ... I...
