    Motion detection in camera vs in BI

    I have some older (10+ yo) Axis camera that can do motion detection, but I have been using BI's built in motion detection to date. 1. I'm wondering if the built-in Axis detection algorthim is better than BI's - anyone know? 2. My CPU often runs 70% (I have 3 cameras). Is this mostly due to...

    Hi all, I've noticed something strange in Blue Iris which I can't quite figure out. I define a zone for one of my cameras using a live preview image where I paint or clear the bits of the picture I want covered or uncovered by the zone. When I then go to view a clip and enable the 'Test run...

    Noticed false alarm clips tend to always be the same length (the minimum) — strategies?

    I noticed after going through my clips day in and day out that almost every clip that has the shortest possible video time or so (= pre-trigger time + post-trigger timeout “break”) is useless. A false alarm from some bug, or some leaf, or something. I don’t mind recording these, but it gets old...
