hardware acceleration would not cause drops and it would not drop 98% cpu to 12. What other changes did you make? h.265 is not supported with intel HA, so BI will change it backOk I now have the cameras dropping connection and no signal. If I go for no he acceleration it works fine. That's annoying I was hoping it would lower the cpu. Any thoughts?
in the op's case its an outdated slow cpu with no hardware acceleration as well as setup errors.I know this is an older post, but I am thinking about a Blue Iris set up (vs. nvr) and am wondering what typically causes the most cpu usage. Number of cameras aside, is it the act of recording 24/7 at a given bitrate or the motion detection or something else or all of the above?
I seem to remember reading somewhere (been so much info I have been looking through) that if you have Blue Iris do the motion detection, that can be pretty demanding? But, at this point, I could be misremembering.
