    Blue Iris Tools - Weather Overlay, Watchdog & more!

    Scrap any hope that C++ update may have fixed my issue. Went home yesterday to find it crashed again. Interestingly this time the BI logs, Proxmox logs and recordings all stopped at the same time. Nothing in the logs to indicate a cause though.

    Blue Iris Tools - Weather Overlay, Watchdog & more!

    Hi, sorry just saw this. The hardware listed in my signature is current. It's a Xeon so no onboard graphics. All my cams record constantly. H264B, 2688x1520, 15FPS, CBR, Bitrate 8192 I frame 15. Substream 1, D1 (704x576), 15 FPS, CBR, 512 bitrate, I frame 15. I have a dedicated NIC passed...

    Blue Iris Tools - Weather Overlay, Watchdog & more!

    Hi everyone. I am fighting an issue of random freezing of my BI machine. It is running BI in a Windows VM under Proxmox. The issue I am having pre-dates this setup though and I was having an identical issue on a dedicated BI machine running windows. The issue, when it occurs, is that the machine...

    Logs blank for several hours prior to crash

    I have a long-term problem with BI crashing periodically (days to weeks). I have changed about every possible thing I can think of including total hardware change including disks and moving to Proxmox with Windows VM. The periodic issue of the system becoming totally non-responsive and requiring...

    Hourly gaps in recording

    Thanks everyone. I checked the clips tab and sure enough a new clip was being created for those 2 cameras at the exact time of their hourly outage. The clip size at time of transition was 2.92GB which is slightly less than the 3GB threshold I set, but close to it I guess. A new clip runs from...

    Hourly gaps in recording

    I have been told that this can occur when BI transitions to a new recording file. I have set "Combine or cut video" to 1 hour or 3GB so the time interval would be right. Can anyone confirm this?

    Hourly gaps in recording

    Thanks - well there were definitely no entries in the logs within 2-3 minutes either side of the event that I checked this morning. I guess that means that it is not camera or network related.

    Hourly gaps in recording

    Thanks. I checked the compact/reindex setting and it is set to 2:00am daily (?default) which it seems to be doing according to the logs. It seems that it is something else. I checked again this morning and the behaviour continues. It seemed to be a few seconds later in the hour today so possibly...

    Hourly gaps in recording

    I have recently discovered a weird thing happening where 2 out of my 5 cameras show a 6 second gap in the recordings every hour. I am running Blue Iris in a VM under Proxmox. The 2 cameras in question happen to both be my Dahua 5442 cameras. This may be just a coincidence. The 3 other cameras...

    Computer becoming non-responsive and losing alerts in time line

    After turning off HA (globally and for each camera) I experienced no more crashes and was really happy with the stability of my system..... until today. For the first time in 7 months it locked up again. I have to manually power it off and when restarted it seems to have rebuild the database...

    Computer becoming non-responsive and losing alerts in time line

    Any ideas on the older alerts disappearing from the timeline and alerts clip list? You think it could also be related to using harware acceleration?

    Computer becoming non-responsive and losing alerts in time line

    No sorry that is confusing. I meant Hardware Acceleration.

    Computer becoming non-responsive and losing alerts in time line

    I had wondered this. Im using 2 Skyhawk 4tb drives as a dynamic volume. They pass the healthchecks on crystaldiskinfo but do have some hours of them. How to tell?

    Computer becoming non-responsive and losing alerts in time line

    Well you have convinced me to try that for sure. The Xeon doesn't have iGPU so using the card was needed for HA. I'll activate substreams and turn off HA and see if it helps.
