    Having issues with Amcrest IP3M-941 Wireless (Blue Iris Main Stream = 0.00 FPS)

    Hi All! I have a single Amcrest IP3M-941 wireless PTZ camera that I use in a location where running ethernet was not practical. I have 23 other Amcrest/Dahua cameras using POE. All of this is running in Blue Iris 5.7.8.1. My issue that the substream shows up fine, but the main stream usually...

    One of my cameras will not open at full res in UI3 (but works fine directly in BI)

    I have 24 cameras running in BI 5.7.8.1. 1 (and only 1!) of these cameras does not like to play nice in UI3. However, it works just fine directly in BI. This camera is a Reolink RLC-410 (1 of 10 cameras in my system). I have it set for mainstream (12FPS) and substream. The substream works...

    Help with Drive Overallocation

    I recently added a 3TB drive to my system and setup a new "Continuous" folder dedicated to just this drive (no other folders use it). I set my storage limit to 2600GB, but it continues to tell me that I'm overallocated. I originally had the limit size to 2700GB (3TB = 2720 usable GB). What am...

    Question about recording "Continuous" vs "Continuous Sub + Triggered"

    I have been using BI for several years and it's great! I typically have all my cameras set to record video "When Triggered" and this has worked fine except for 2 front yard cameras which have missed some events. I have plenty of bandwidth left on my BI server and some large 10TB hard drives...

    Blue Iris Not Deleting "Stored" Videos On Time?

    I've had BI5 running smoothly for years, but have noticed a problem for the last few months that has required my manual intervention to fix each time. My "Stored" alerts are moved to an auxiliary 3TB drive and are supposed to be limited to 21 days. On my actual 3TB drive, however, in the...

    Recording alerts + 24/7 full-time from the same camera

    My BI camera server has 25 cameras installed - ranging from simple Reolink cams to higher end starry-night Amcrest/Dahua cameras. Since setting this server up many years ago, I typically just record on alert and end up with tons of 15-30 seconds clips. After years of fiddling with the...

    How can I get better quality from my Dahua (Loryta) IPC-T5442TM-AS (moving objects)

    I have multiple Loryta IPC-T5442TM-AS cameras (3.6mm) around the exterior of my property. I love the low-light color resolution and they display nice clear video all around my property (day or night). My only issue is that I get really bad streaking/tearing when cars drive by. It's to the...

    Motion Detected - But Recording NOT Triggered?

    I could use some assistance with my Blue Iris config. One of my outdoor cameras will regularly indicate motion (yellow boxes), but won't actually trigger to record anything. If something large moves (like a car), then it will put an orange box around the object and it will trigger to record...

    Looking for a Roof Mounted Camera(s) for Watching the Weather / Sky

    I live in KS - on the top of a hill - with lots of surrounding land. I enjoy watching storms roll in and different parts of my property can be raining while the other side is sunny. I was thinking of mounting a camera on the top of my roof that I can use the view the weather in various...

    Help with Reolink RTSP Substream

    I have 10 Reolink RLC-410 cameras. I know that they don't have the best reputation for IP cameras, but they were what my builder included in their "technology package" and it's what I have wired and configured so far. I've recently learned about the benefits of "substream" RTSP for keeping CPU...

    Trouble with Reolink RLC-410W Wireless Cam and Blue Iris 5

    All, Before we start - I know, I know - Reolinks are garbage. Previous owner left all of his cameras and I'm in no rush to buy new ones just yet. That said, I have several hard-wired Reolink RLC-410 cameras with Blue Iris 5 and I have been very happy with the results. I realize that they...

    Blue Iris Motion Detection Not Working Well

    I am using Blue Iris v5.07.3 x64 with a Reolink RLC-410-5MP camera. I have 7 total cameras (all using the same Reolink), but am having trouble with one particular outdoor camera. My NVR is a i7-6700 with 16GB of RAM (it never goes about 40% CPU usage). I am having a hard time getting my...
