So i have a nuc, the Intel NUC D54250WYK with the following specs;
CPU: Intel Core i5-4250U
Memory: 16GB DDR3L (SODIMM)
250GB SSD
According to the Intel page it supports Intel® Quick Sync Video; which i think means it supports hardware decoding of the streams.
did a fresh install of windows 10; no tweaks to OS done, only Blue Iris and Blue Iris Tools running. Added this cam, with the wizard, all default settings. When i add just one camera, the CPU usage jumps to about 60% of blue iris. I am not recording yet, and still using the demo version. I also don't know if i am even using QuickSync already.
What are the things i need to pay attention to, in order to get the most of Blue Iris?
- Limiting the frame rate in the camera configuration
- Direct to Disk recording
- Hardware decoding
- Limiting the live preview frame rate
- Anything else?
If i get a list of things i need to check i can see if i need to upgrade my NUC to something beefier, e.g. an desktop i5 or desktop i7 with possibility to have an external graphics card like the GTX950.
And where should i set up motion detection/triggering? In Blue Iris or in the camera?
I hope @fenderman and @bp2008 can respond and help out so we can get one sort of 'knowledge' thread.
