I just got this IPC-Color4K-T to replace my Reolink Trackmix and while it looks quite good even with default settings in the camera's web interface it looks awful in the blue iris web interface or console. I have tried all the encoding and quality settings in the camera but nothing seems to help. Also changed the stream quality in ththe blue iris web interface, Maybe I am viewing the substream?
IPC-Color4K-T Looks Terrible in BI
- Thread starter Mibix
- Start date
The main console looks like oversharpened and the UI3 looks substream.
Most feel the 4K-T is sharp out of the box. Lower it and see if it improves.

Any idea how to fix the substream thing? this is the scanning report:

That all is fine. It is a setting in UI3 on what resolution to display. But with that orange clock it is saying you are probably hitting bandwidth issues.
That orange clock was just temporary it is still incredibly fuzzy even with all the settings in UI3 and the camera's web interface maxed.
How is the quality when you open:

I do think after reset the camera to factory defaults, checking off decoder compatibility mode and the onvif to refresh volatile streams its working a lot better now. Still the usual low framerate from UI3 but I can deal with that:
Turns out it was this setting. I set it to 4k not thinking and it wouldnt go back till I unchecked that Anamorphic box then all my streams were clear. Guess I didn't know what that did?
In the first UI3 screenshot, you were viewing a camera group containing a single camera (as evidenced by its title bar being visible). Camera groups render typically just the sub stream and are at a different resolution and frame rate besides. Single-camera groups have long been a troublesome situation in UI3 because UI3 is designed to assume you will have more than one camera.
I'm curious what web browser that is, because it is rendering the PTZ control pad in the wrong colors so something weird is going on and possibly it is also affecting the frame rate you are able to achieve when streaming.

i never manually did anything to my 4k on the anamorphic setting. i let the thing install itself to defaults before i did anything else. But i notice it assigned itself a setting.
