89% CPU 500+GB mem in use
This started happening... eh.... December when I was still on 5.9'ish version. Upgraded to 6.0 versions, problem remains unchanged. Just now am upgrading to latest/greatest available. AI channels set to 4 max. Nothing else much has changed in the last 4 years. Did add in Blue Iris Tools to... -
Did Dahua go out of business?
I have been super distracted in last 6 months to keep up to date of Dahua do's and dont's... but I'll keep buying from Andy directly or from his Amazon store. Until (if ever) that ship sails. Then alternatives will have to be found. Have sold 5 or 6 Dahua NVR's in the last year with T54... -

Opinions for Colour Night Vision Camera in areas of good street lighting.
For the critical "i want images for court", I use Dahua 5442's (older generation) and T54's (new generation). These cameras have parameters for video, fine-tuned (not default). Various focal lengths from 3.6mm, 6mm, and varifocal, depending on their height, angle, and what spatial x,y,z grid I...- Holbs

Opinions for Colour Night Vision Camera in areas of good street lighting.
One piece of the camera selection pie that I tell anyone who listens as I know from direct experience...

Did Dahua go out of business?
In my opinion, even if the Dahua cameras get jacked up in price to even the same as Ubiquiti....I am still buying Dahua. -
Tired of doorcams, what normal camera can I use ?
I have 2 of these 3' tall fake boulders. (Auction for $10 each). I do plan on putting my LPR camera into 1 and a 5442/T54 into the other. Is why I ran 4 x Cat6 to my lamp post :) Granted...2 years in the making! My Tire Slasher event + purchase of my company really has put a damper on my... -
Cables for less Experiance?
If your purchase this... please show pictures of the copper. I am HIGHLY skeptical about any Cat6A 1000' cable box for $125. Cost alone would be near $200'ish. I wonder if bait & switch. 1000 feet? Oh...typo... they meant 100' ! Or it's actually Cat6e, or regular Cat6. Or...it's actually...- Holbs

Blue Iris Tools - Weather Overlay, Watchdog & more!
I can only speak of myself, but I have an Ambient Weather Station WS-2902. I did not originally purchase it to be included into Blue Iris. It had other purposes back then. 1.) rain meter for my RainMachine irrigation system 2.) LUX meter to determine if the sun way up or down 3.) landscape...- Holbs

Yale alarm alerts?
any smartphone alerts via app would have to come through the cloud in regards to iPhone and Android push notification servers. If the alarm box locally had the ability to send email / text message... depends if they allow 3rd party or once again, proprietary Yale servers to handle it all...- Holbs

Multiple Remote Location IPCams Setup
Constructions Site #1 / Pole #1 has it's own ISP internet service from Construction Site #1 / Pole #2 ? If so, yes... can do Ubiquiti Ultra routers that do 4 port POE. If Pole #1 and Pole #2 share same ISP, you list 5 cameras but the Ultra router only has 1 WAN and 4 LAN ports. Hence, the...- Holbs

Camera Location by Garage
I installed 2 x 5442 cameras underneath my left & right coach lights at 5' level. I was concerned about the glare from the lights. But have had no problems.- Holbs
