    iPhone 15 Pro Max problems with BI

    Not sure if it's specific to the pro max or all iPhone 15 models but can confirm with 2 other iphones on separate servers the app is having audio issues and will freeze after playing a couple recorded clips. Other various issues not worthy of mention right now. if anyone else is using iphone...

    What would cause this god awful noise ?

    I recently got the iPhone 15 pro max. I’ve downloaded everything in the app like I normally would but noticed when I play clips it makes this terrible noise at the beginning of every clip. The rest of the audio comes in fine afterwards but I can’t figure out what’s causing it. I went back to...

    Stumped - internet speed nose dives

    I gifted my dad a brand new BI server and 5 cameras for his birthday. When I set everything up it was running speedy and for the first month I could remote into his PC with full speed and tweak things as necessary. Overnight, when I remote into his computer (and when he’s checking cameras...

    Is my network setup ideal?

    I was doing a bit of reading on the forums and I found myself questioning whether or not my Computer (BI Server) should be plugged directly into the ASUS Router. It is currently plugged into a dumb switch that my POE switches are also plugged into. Just curious if anyone has any knowledgeable...

    iOS app suddenly not recording clips

    I noticed right after the last iOS app update (maybe coincidence) that I can't download clips anymore. I hit the video button during the clip, it turns red like normal, and i press it again to end recording. Usually this is where a popup would say the video is saved to my device. It no longer...

    Clicking on camera in all camera group goes to wrong camera

    Couldn’t seem to find an answer for this via search. Randomly when I’m viewing the all camera group in the iOS app, when I click on a camera it will load a totally different camera. In fact, they all seem to be mapped incorrectly now. Already tried restarting the server and the phone...

    What causes multiple clips for same time?

    A weird new issue popped up on all my cameras lately. My clips used to just show the 30 min clips I have setup to record full time. Recently, it started showing multiple entries for that new clip but no size or length and then finally the actual clip containing the new recording. Has anyone...

    Dahua HFW1831 won’t connect to network

    Has this happened to anyone before? I did a factory reset on this cam and now I can’t even see it. IPCONFIGtool doesn’t see it - tried different POE ports on my switch which other cams use no problem. Logged into my router and there isn’t even an IP assigned to it like it doesn’t see it. I...

    Is there a way to "arm" BI while "away"?

    I believe I'm overthinking this issue but i can't figure out an easy way to accomplish this. When I'm home, I don't need alerts pushed to my phone about someone being in the side yard or entering the garage. But when we leave for the weekend or the day, I'd like to be notified of that. Is...

    https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08CVTM9JL/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_QE6M906BG8VGPJFQGQF9 looks like 1/1.8” @ 4MP. is this just a Dahua? Price looks ok. Any feedback appreciated.

    7 second audio delay on playback

    I don’t know if this is because of the latest update but I noticed that via the iOS app if I replay any clip from any camera there is a 7 second delay for the audio to begin in the clip. Live audio on the software and app are perfect. This only effects playback. Anyone else experiencing this ?

    MJPEG BI stream FPS

    I’m using my Roku tv to stream BI’s MJPEG of all cameras. However the FPS of the stream looks like 5 or something very choppy. Does anyone know if I’m overlooking a setting to increase this ?

    Possible to replay the sub stream ?

    Hi folks. I couldn’t find an answer to this via search. If I’m recording dual streams, is it possible to replay the sub stream via the iOS app? larger and larger bvr files means recording a small clip is sometimes impossible as it asks too much of my mobile connection. Being able to record...

    Glitch switching from sub stream to main

    When I’m viewing cameras on my mobile I notice sometimes before it switches to the mainstream it shows a random clip from a saved video or early time in the day (as shown in this video). It doesn’t happen all the time it’s just sporadic. Any idea how to prevent this?

    App to access snapshots on Micro SD card?

    Hello all (merry Christmas!) I use DMSS on my iPhone to view recorded motion alerts on my Dahua cams. But recently I switched to just having it take snapshots instead of videos. I don’t actually see a place to view snapshots on here, just my old video recordings. Do any of you recommend a...

    IPC-HFW5831E-Z5E - Focus reset on reboot

    Can't seem to find an answer via search so i apologize if this has been covered. On my IPC-HFW5831E-Z5E, everytime it reboots (from power outage or weekly reboot) the focus will switch to auto instead of the setting i had it fixed at. This is a problem since its an LPR and all the fuzzy video...

    Discrepancy in size of one hour clips

    Hello all and thanks for any help. I have almost all of my cameras recording one hour clips. Most of them are set to different resolutions and FPS but they all seem to record one hour clips at around 900mb. Example: one camera records 20 FPS at 4MP resolution no audio and the clips are...

    Dahua LPR settings?

    We’re using a Dahua IPC--HFW5831E-Z5E I’m using it as an unofficial LPR in blue iris and was hoping maybe someone has some preferred night time settings to capture plates. I’ve attached a pic of my current settings and the result (which by all means serves the purpose and works) but there’s...

    Worth updating RAM?

    I currently have 16gb of ram that came with my computer (1,033 MHz I think). I’m not too savvy on that stuff but it’s run of the mill memory that came with the computer from dell. I’m wondering if (for my BI server) it makes sense to get a faster speed 16gb ram like this one: Newegg ram as...

    IPC-HFW5442E-S - no option for 60 FPS

    Hello- I purchased these units since specs were advertised everywhere as 60 FPS @ 1080p. However, I dont see any option combination in the mainstream that surpasses 30 FPS @ 1080p. Does anyone know if there is a certain settings combination that i'm missing? thank you!

    New home owner - do I have options?

    Hi everyone. This is my first home and I have been mentally figuring out how to have a clean install here. Unfortunately, my attic is very small and tight. How would you guys do this? Originally I wanted to run the cable from the eaves into the attic and down into a server room but I’m 6’4”...

    Using Laview domes with amcrest NVR

    Is this possible? I can’t get the amcrest NVR to recognize any of my Laview domes. Normally it finds them east but even now I’m trying to manually type in the IP assigned and it won’t recognize it. Thanks for any suggestions Ps it works perfect in blue iris.
