    NVR 4208-8-4KS2 Problem

    I had the VGA HDMI problem on my original BI computer. I add a cheap video card (>$30) . If you have a number of cameras and plan on using deepstack for people, car recondition then look at the card that support Deepstack. Just make sure you have the correct slot and card height for the new card.

    Pandemic threat? Anyone else concerned?

    @Rob2020 The number of cases is based upon the number of tests, If you do not test than no cases. The tests for covid are not very accurate, they are hit of miss. The only number that may be valid is the number of deaths from covid and these numbers are highly suspect.

    "LAN Only" / OpenVPN access

    ALSO HAVE AN asus router. There is a problem with the asus router in the order that it does things. With OpenVPN you are suppose to be 100% on the local network. But in some cases this is not true. For example if you block a MAC address from internet access it is not viewable with OpenVPN...

    UPDATE FIXED - BI5 issues after power outage and Windows 10 update,

    If the video is jumping and the time is jumping, and net time is not updating, I think that this is a network problem. 1) take the camera down and plug it into the POE switch with a short pre made store bought cable. Test it there. 2) try a different POE port. 3) a network diagram with IP...
