    Version 6.0.1

    This is good news. Finally gives us a reason to upgrade to v6 and not have to use CPAI.

    Blue Iris in a VM.

    I do the same as you. I try to find cases that have multiple external 5.25 bays (which is harder and harder to find) and then I buy the Star Tech or Icy Dock caddies so I have easy external access to the drives without having to dig inside the case. They aren't hot swappable like true SAS...

    Version 6

    V6 is already marked as stable. You will never be able to go from v5 to v6 without downloading the new installer.

    Blue Iris in a VM.

    No. I exclude the backup of the passthrough drives. Proxmox then backs up the virtual disk of the BI VM only. No downtime required.

    Blue Iris in a VM.

    How are you determining it’s not working? I’ve been doing daily backups of my BI VM for years in Proxmox. The virtual disk of the BI vm that holds the OS is on a SSD but I pass through several hard drives for BI to actually write recordings to. I don’t backup those. I only backup the root BI OS...

    Blue Iris in a VM.

    Version 6

    Version 6

    Does the auto-renew being greyed out mean that you setup your credit card to "auto renew" at anniversary so you don't need to do anything??

    Version 6

    Here is one of my BI VMs in Proxmox. Normal V5 CPU usage is around 6.5% on this particular VM. Installed V6 on it at the large CPU usage spike (17%). Running V6, it appears there is a 2% increase in CPU usage on average going to that version from the previous V.5 version. So I was wrong. I...

    Version 6

    I'm not really seeing any CPU % differences. My system stays around 10 - 15% all the time.

    Version 6 Beta

    Yeah there is a bug with the new installer and getting UI3 running. You have to run the installer twice now to get UI3 working.

    Version 6

    Had the same UI3 problem. Uninstalling and re-installing it again fixed it for me as well.

    Worlds First Review - Dahua - IPC-Color4K-X / DH-IPC-HFW5849T1-ASE-LED - Full Color 4K Camera

    I just bought two more of the 4K-X cams instead of the TIOC. Since I have a ton of white light where I’m putting them, this cam makes more sense that the Tioc cam from the other thread.

    Loosing my patience with BI, what have they done to it..

    Was addressing the OP.
