    Swapped out two cameras, now getting several NO SIGNAL error messages

    Yes...now....all cameras are working as they were before. Not sure what Tailscale was doing....I was trying to get it to work so that I could use the mobile app to view the cameras when away from my home network. I'll bet is has something to do with the fact that the cameras aren't part of the...

    Swapped out two cameras, now getting several NO SIGNAL error messages

    Quick update. I haven't had a chance to look into TonyR's suggestion. That's on my list of things to do later today. I have a scheduled task to reboot the PC that runs BI every so often at midnight. The system rebooted earlier today, and all 13 cams were up and running as of 0300 when I was...

    Swapped out two cameras, now getting several NO SIGNAL error messages

    TonyR- I connected the new cam with a new/unique static IP. Configured by copying a known working camera profile. Performed find/inspect as described. Verified new cam working and configured overlays within camera settings. Disconnected old cam and mounted new cam in its place. Revised static...

    Checked the PC running BI and found out that it had "updated" to Win11. Downloading the latest updates. Will inspect the cameras later today and post back. Thanks.

    Swapped out two cameras, now getting several NO SIGNAL error messages

    wittaj- Cameras were deleted in BI, then re-added using an existing Reolink camera (known working config) setup that was copied for the two replacement cams. The setup worked for a few minutes, but then the no signal error messages started to appear. Thanks.

    Swapped out two cameras, now getting several NO SIGNAL error messages

    Hi- I'm running into some issues with my BI setup after swapping out a few of my older cameras. I keep getting no signal errors on several cameras. The system was working fine before, so I'm assuming that the addition of the higher bitrate cameras is the issue. I'm looking for ways to resolve...

    Blue Iris and CodeProject.AI ALPR

    Hi- Picked up a new machine after my old one started randomly shutting itself down. Was working on trying to get CodeProject.AI installed to help with motion events, and ultimately ALPR. Ran into a snag right out of the gate...can't seem to get CodeProject.AI installed on the local machine. I...

    Upgrading from BI 4.8.6.3 on Win7 to BI 5.x on Win10

    looney2ns - thanks for the reply....looks like I can install V5 on a Win7 box. I'll have to see if I want to upgrade the V4 version I have in place, or go with a fresh install of V5.....something to think about.

    Upgrading from BI 4.8.6.3 on Win7 to BI 5.x on Win10

    bp2008- Kind of what I figured....I'm not even sure if I can install V5 on a Win7 box, so I need to research that as well. Glad to hear you were able to fix your cam issue simply by deleting/re-creating it....that's good to hear, but was probably a hassle.

    Upgrading from BI 4.8.6.3 on Win7 to BI 5.x on Win10

    wittaj- thanks for the reply. I'll see about exporting each of the individual camera settings and placing those files in a safe place during the upgrade. I wasn't sure if V5 supported Win7...if I recall correctly, I don't think that it did, which was one of the reasons I was stuck on V4....but...

    Upgrading from BI 4.8.6.3 on Win7 to BI 5.x on Win10

    Hi- I've got an old Win7 machine running BI 4.8.6.3. I'm working on configuring a new machine running Win10, and wanted to know if there is a recommended process on upgrading / transferring all of the camera settings from the older BI install to the new one. I'm hoping that I don't have to add...

    It's an intermittent problem....when it occurs, I cannot access the PC using remote desktop. Fails to reply to any ping commands. It's been a problem for a while, I was just reluctant to upgrade the OS from Win7 to Win10. On another note...I pulled the trigger on this one a little while...

    Replace current PC with SFF PC

    Asking $224. I am aware of the HDD and SSD limitation. I have network storage that I use to archive cam video to if needed. I was going to use SSD for OS and BI software and internal 3.5 HDD for direct to disk recordings.
