Hi again,

i have a second issue with BI at continuous recording.
I configured BI to record continuously all cameras.
All cameras are the same model and records in color.
Only one of them records in B/W because of usually closed door, so without light, only infrared.
Infrared records only in black and white, that's OK, but after 5 seconds of recording BI shows an exclamation mark at the cam.
Is it possible to disable this because it sucks to see som error signs where there are no errors.
Strange fact:
The other cameras don't show exclamations at night, when they get into IR mode, too.
All camreas have the exactly identical profile settings, they are cloned from the first camera.
Why only that one camera shows the exclamation?

My thougts are as following:
I think it's because of the recorded image doesn't change at all because there is completely no move at all in that room.
Now I think, such behavior is recognized as loss of signal.
But this collides with the fact, that at night, the other cams switch to IR mode, too.
Their recorded videos don't change at all, too, but the don't show an "warning".
Another fact is, that the camera injects an OSD inside the video with date and time.
It's not created by BI, it inside the stream, injected by the camera.
So, the changing "seconds" should be rocognized as "movement"m but not enough to send an alert.
But enough to see, that the camera is still alive.

Inside the watchdog setting i disabled the option:

What am I missing?

Thank you in advance.

That is more of a caution than error.

If the FPS is dropping or the KEY is below 0.5 it throws that to let you know.

Some cheaper cams do that to favor a bright image and nothing you can do about it.

But it throws that caution because a key below 0.5 can be problematic for motion and AI functions so BI throws that caution so that a user is aware.

What camera is it?

Yes you can disable a camera in BI.

OK, thank you, but I don't want to disable a camera, i only want to disable that warning (or am I misunderstanding you meaning?).
The camera model is SV-B01POE-1080P.

No you are not able to disable the warning, only the camera.

Can you go into the camera GUI and change parameters like FPS and iframes?

What I suspect is that the iframes is triple the FPS and they should match.

But it could very well be a camera you cannot change those settings.
