    Poor experience with xeon CPU + no discrete GPU

    Hi all, I recently migrated off of an Xeon PU E5-2650L v4 server onto a much lower powered i5-6500t system and wanted to share my experience as the difference is night and day. I have 5 camera streams doing continuous direct to disk BVR recording. I had several problems when I was hosting BI on...

    Mixed use sata SSDs for Continuous recording?

    I tried to use an external HDD, but at least with an optiplex 7040 running server 2022 that did not go well, as the HDD controller had a connectivity blip and BI hung as a result. I'm temporarily using a 1tb consumer grade SSD I had around. I was previously running BI on an esxi VM but it was...

    [tool] [tutorial] Free AI Person Detection for Blue Iris

    Got this up and running, thank you! Took me a bit of effort to figure out the terminology for the mask portion but I got that sorted out. I did however notice a HUGE performance difference between DeepStack Windows and DeepStack docker installs. The windows DeepStack would continuously max out...

    How to optimize Blue Iris for Amcrest IP8M-T2499EW 4k recording

    Are you still running into this issue, I'm facing the same problem if I allow my Amcrest 4K camera to use a resolution above 1080P. P.S. You do NOT want to record directly to a SSD nor use one as a cache drive for you BI Storage, this will drastically reduce the lifespan of a SSD because they...

    Any way to detect motion/trigger but only create an alert image list for 2 out of 3 zones?

    I'm on BI 5.X and have been working on adjusting and improving my BI setup. I've been experimenting with Artificial intelligence which is pretty awesome but it seems that alert images need to be either ON for all zones or OFF. I have a street facing camera configured for continuous recording...

    Browseable timeline in Blue Iris app?

    Im able to see alerts but Video playback is limited to the timeframe of the alert unfortunately. Is there a way to view the whole timeline for a recording segment? E.g. BI saves video footage in 8 hour chunks but I'm only able to see th individual alerts in the app.

    Browseable timeline in Blue Iris app?

    I've switched over to Blue Iris from nest due to the amount of bandwidth Nest was constantly consuming. One of the major painpoints for my family with the Blue Iris app is that I can't find a browseable timeline. You can view clips where BI was triggered but you can't seem to browse a timeline...
