    Blue Iris live view different then recorded?

    One camera is a little dark in BI 4, starnge!!

    Hi Fenderman, I went back over a week on my hard drive to see what it used to look like and realized that it was angled slightly more up then it is now so went outside and pitched it up and it's fine. Just a slight variation made all the difference. Good thing I had old video to look at! Thanks...

    One camera is a little dark in BI 4, starnge!!

    Hi Fenderman, I'll try but I just looked at all 3 cameras in the camera software and the darker one does not look like the others even with adjustment and the others need no adjustment, it makes no sense. Anyway, thanks, will do some playing and head scratching. Adam

    One camera is a little dark in BI 4, starnge!!

    Hey Fenderman, always nice to hear from you. So I just looked in the software for Boavision and this camera is dark (again, I am not sure how as it was fine before) but I can adjust it with that software and get it to look better HOWEVER it does not affect how it looks in BI?? Adam

    in BI 4 video is only clear when you view camera full frame, help?

    Hey Fenderman, I know I can usually count on you for help! I had already e-mail BI and I paid for Priority support but it takes a while still, usually a 2nd e-mail. I tried the scaling just now per your link and it worked perfectly BUT it raised the CPU from like 34% to 64% so that is no good...
