Out of nowhere my CPU usage is now hovering around 30% which is not bad. I even added a camera and now have 6 running. No idea how it dropped, but I know the direct to disk helped, and moving it to local storage instead of an external HD. One issue I am still seeing out of one of my 4MP Hikvision is the motion pixelation. Three other identical cameras aren't having any issue. All four are setup the exact same way yet this one has the motion blur/pixelation problem. Any ideas on how to resolve that? I do have noise reduction turned on all four @ 50 because of how terrible they looked at night while off.
