    All, I like to "think" I am pretty adept with BI... but this one has me stumped. So with motion detection you can have different zones, right? Okay - I have a PTZ camera on the corner of my house that is typically trained on my driveway. I also have a very wide-angle on my garage that sees...

    I have a camera in Blue Iris set up to record on motion. (Driveway view, 2.8mm) It triggers much of the time, but I have noticed a few occasions where it will trigger once but not retrigger, even though the motion is still going on within the hot zone. (So it looks like people are disappearing)...

    Use 12v to trigger Blueiris from Motion Sensor?

    I have a motion sensor receiver that can output a 5 second 12v signal when triggered. Is there anyway of converting that 12v signal to somehow trigger blueiris? There's also a speaker output..maybe that could work too?

    So I've been doing lots of research on the fps dropping in BI when it gets triggered. My cameras would go down to anywhere from 10-0 fps. This would last about 10 seconds and I had no idea why. Spent lots of time in perfmon, and I had recently used a "CPU Unparker" for my gaming rig. What it...
