    Blue Iris - record direct to computer drive or NAS drive - or both

    Ok, I'll preface this with the fact that I do not yet have a NAS drive and have only started researching them. It appears it's a choice between Synology or QNAP and then either a two or four-bay unit. I have only practised with Blue Iris with one camera, getting ready to move into a new house...

    Reasons for recording H.265 rather than H.264

    Hi. I'm using QNAP's QVR Pro, which limits the user to viewing 14 days worth of footage. If storage space is not a concern with that limit, is there any reason to use H.265 over H.264? From my research, it looks like H.265 may produce a better quality picture in general, but I'm not sure if that...

    QNAP & Generic IP Cameras

    Hello all. My house came with an 8-camera 4k IP cam system. The cheap NVR they came with is no more and I recently acquired a QNAP TS-253A with their Surveillance Station server installed. I am trying to get the cameras added to Surveillance Station, but I it doesn't look like they are...

    Trouble Connecting Hikvision cameras to Qnap NVR

    Im setting up my friends NVR, got all the cameras connected and recording. I just left all the cameras the default names (ex Camera 1, Camera 2) until my friend was around to tell me what he wanted them labeled as. We renamed them to what they are and then none of them would reconnect back to...

    Camera and vendor recommendation

    Hi Y'all, First post, I've been lurking for a bit though. I'm moving into a new property soon and I'm looking to get myself some IP cameras. I've set my sights on Dahua or Hikvision but I'm leaning slightly towards to Dahua because of the price. I'm based in the UK, it's difficult to find these...

    Using QNAP NAS as an NVR under BI control

    I have eight IP cameras (6 GW Security and 2 ReoLink) and really love the motion trigger capabilities of BI. The NVR that came with the GW cameras is very flaky and since I already have a QNAP NAS I'd like to use it as an BI driven NVR replacement. My network is Gigabit and with all cameras...
