Hi All

hope someone can help

I have been testing BI on my PC for about 6 weeks and it works great, the pc is under powered so i now have a new pc and i am setting up bi

I have copied all the settings from the old pc to the new one and the video keeps stop-starting and i get continuous errors:

4 28/08/2019 21:53:56 Cam1 Signal: restored
1 28/08/2019 21:54:26 Cam1 Signal: network retry
1 28/08/2019 21:54:56 Cam1 Signal: network retry
4 28/08/2019 21:55:00 Cam1 Signal: restored
1 28/08/2019 21:55:30 Cam1 Signal: network retry

I am still running bi on the old machine and it is running perfectly, but on the new one i have this issue so its a problem with the machine setup and not the camera or cabling

Both machines have windows 10 pro latest updates and same av software and both are on Ethernet only at 1000Mb connected to the same switch

Anyone got any ideas?
 
I get a similar problem and out of about 40 cameras it's only with 4 that are the same brand, Panasonic. Setting their IP to static in the camera itself cured it for a while but then it came back again. It only started when I went to BI5. Thankfully mine seem to be only down for a couple of seconds 2 / 3 times a day.
 
Thanks, I’m getting this on a dahua camera using bi5. The camera has a static ip address. As I’ve already said it still works perfectly on the old machine but not the new one so I’m trying to find out what is causing the issue
 
I am suddenly having a similar issue but nothing has changed except for updates to BI, Windows, and NVIDIA. Guessing one of those are the suspect. I've changed so many settings to no avail. Specifically does it more on my newer cameras, 3MP+.

Check the hardware acceleration setting in bi, needs to be default, or failing that try the other options for this. Worst case scenario try rolling back the updates
 
Thanks. I'll keep playing with it. Seems every now and then I have to do this but this time it's worse. In the past it's cleared up, not this time, going on two weeks.

Ok good luck. When I had the problem it was 100% of the time, camera was up and down every minute, since I made the change I mentioned it’s been up all the time
 
Resolved - the new pc didnt like hardware acceleration as intel, needed to be default - hope this helps someone else
Mambo - you saved me - turned out my HW Accel was set to Intel+VPP - changed to Nvidea and the errors went away.

I'm hoping that was why my NVR is freezing every couple of days, but I don't think that's the case (was looking at logs to try to see if I could figure out the freeze).
