    Yearly maintenance question

    Thanks for the info guys. Another question just came up. My maintenance plan just expired and I'm now getting an alert about this "error" every day. Also, every time you go into settings, another alert, even with "No update or news prompts" enabled. It's made worse with the full yellow status...

    Yearly maintenance question

    Can you install updates manually if you don't have maintenance? I'm thinking about holding off with changing to version 6 and wonder if I can I install it at a later point, even if my maintenance window expires?

    Version 6 Beta

    I agree and I wasn't suggesting it was possible. I was hoping for a new feature/option.

    Version 6 Beta

    Thanks for the image. That’s the way I have mine, although I also turn off camera names and borders. I've added images of my setup and a mock-up of a simplified layout that would be ideal for me. I realise extra work to the UI might not be an option so that's why I suggested a setting to remove...

    Version 6 Beta

    Do you mean the desktop frames option? I use this for making individual cams go full screen on a separate screen. If you use frames to make a cam grouping outside of the UI, you would then have to drag the individual frame to another monitor then right click and maximise. You then have to...

    Version 6 Beta

    I've just updated to 5.9.9.98 and I think there has been a misunderstanding. The option you pointed to gives me full screen, with cams only. I already had this option. I'm looking for an option to have cams only while in windowed mode. Just to clarify, say you size the BI window to take up half...

    Version 6 Beta

    Does the beta have this option? I'm on 5.9.9.73 and don't have the option for windowed mode, only to go full screen, cams only.

    Version 6 Beta

    I was really hoping for a much simpler layout for the desktop UI in v6. Full screen mode would be a great option for windowed mode too. Just the cams on display and right click to change anything. I'm not sure how much work this would be, but it must be easier than creating a new UI. Windows...

    Does the beta have an updated app UI? Are there any screenshots available?

    Anyone know what feed the built in Anran viewer uses?

    A newbie question, but could a low “Receive buffer” have been causing the issue? Since raising it to 20mb in BI (default was 6mb) the cam seems fine. No smearing or artefacts and no dropouts. I have even raised the quality. It seems strange as it’s the same bitrate (previously lower) as the...

    Anyone know what feed the built in Anran viewer uses?

    Yeah, after inspecting, BI switches to “RTSP H.264/MJPG/MPEG4” for the make/model and changes the path to “/user=admin_password=xxxxxxxx_channel=1_stream=0.sdp?real_stream Just to clarify, the cams are working with BI and much, much smoother (compared to iSpy).... far less CPU and memory use...

    Anyone know what feed the built in Anran viewer uses?

    What a great app. Lots of info and it seems I can view the cam without even logging in :oops: There seems to be a “default” user account that isn’t listed in the cam config. I’m not sure if it’s using that or ONVIF allows this? On the Live Video it lists the URL as...

    Anyone know what feed the built in Anran viewer uses?

    Thanks very much for the info :) Do you know if there is a way to connect to the cam in the same way with Blue Iris? Or do you mean I should use the ODM displayed URL for Blue Iris?

    Anyone know what feed the built in Anran viewer uses?

    I have 3 Anran AR-DW105-IP cams and one is potentially faulty or overheating. It’s in a warmer and much busier location. There are also trees and foliage so it gets a lot more work. It currently seems stable at 1080p, 15fps and “Good” quality (VBR). Anything higher and it starts producing...
