All of my cameras are Amcrest HD I have 21 of them and last week they started dropping like flies with no reason. It's not the network or cams they all work fine and I even tested iSPY and NetCam Studio and they work fine with them (using the SAME server as BI is installed (BI services turned off while testing). I have made no changes to the settings a few come on and then off from time to time. CPU is at 61% ram 10 out of 16GB Windows 10 64 bit and a i7-7700 CPU and everything has been working just fine for the last 8 months. I have deleted and re-setup a few of them with no help, they won't connect. I do a Fine/Inspect with the RTSP and BI finds the cameras and loads the profiles so BI can see and talk to the camera, I normally have the Amcrest settings, but I'm trying everything.. even tested some Foscam profiles. Could have been a windows update so I installed the most recent version of BI 4.7.1.1 and I reinstalled the working Intel Video drivers with the MediaSDK for the memory leak issue and still no dice. Aside from blowing up BI and reinstalling I don't know what else to try. These same none-working cams work FINE with the native application, MPEG stream AND with other cam software, I can ALSO open these non-op cams directly from the BI server using the web browser and URL streams so there isn't any connection issues, I have also rebooted the server multiple times and the cameras (just to be safe). The only thing BI says is "No Signal" Soooo frustrated right meow!
** Update I tried using the MPEG Stream as the source on one of the cams and it works. Obviously not the best solution but this says BI can see the cam, so why isn't it using the decoding stream
