    CPU Usage v6.x

    Currently using BI v6.0.2.8. Currently supporting 6, 4k cams and 3, 3k cams (recording 24/7). Using the larger yolo8m module. When BI is static, cpu usage hovers around 7-9%. When AI attempts to confirm a trigger it momentarily spikes to 40-60% for about 2-3 seconds then drops to 7-9% again...

    BI v6.0.2.7 built-in AI not confirming small moving objects

    Just upgraded from v5.9.9.97 to v6.0.2.7. Been using/testing v6.0.2.7's built-in AI to confirm standard BI motion detection on several cams. AI works well confirming persons, but fails to confirm/detect smaller objects like our cat 90% of the time. BI motion detection triggers on the cat 100%...

    BI v5.9.9.75 Deleting ALL "stored" Video

    Over the last year (using BI v5.9.8.5) I've been keeping about 26 hours of BI "new" video on a 500gb Windows C SSD drive. After 26 hours it transitions to a 6tb Windows D drive where I limit BI video storage to approx. 4tb (or 16 days of total video for 6 cameras). I've had zero problems with...

    NetTime Question

    A few days ago I got all our cameras to time sync to NetTime. However, I'm not clear how NetTime is supposed to work with the computer it's installed on. When I run "w32tm /query /status" at the cmd prompt it shows the Windows Time Service is still accessing time.windows.com for time syncs...

    Hardware/Software Advice for BI

    Got our VPN online. Been testing our 5 EmpireTech cams (w/micro SD's) with BI, UI3 and Pushover with our laptop (and 16ch POE switch) for the last few weeks. Not fond of switching from Pushover to UI3 to access notification videos on our iphone, but we can live with it. Thankfully, the...

    POE Switch Question

    Currently using an 8 ch 10/100mbps POE switch with 2 1000mbps uplink ports. One of the two uplink ports is connected to our router. Looks like we're going to need more channels. I'm assuming the two 1000mbps uplink ports on this POE switch are paralleled? If so, can we connect the uplink...

    Newb with Questions About Reolink Cameras

    Hi! As much as I would like to venture into the Blue Iris world, I decided I'd rather keep things simple with our system. Have plans to install a 6-8 cameras, an 8ch POE switch, an iOS app, and 128/256gb micro cards. As a start, I purchased two Reolink RLC510a bullets (5mp, 80 deg FOV) and a...
