    "Best" Current Recommended Cameras

    Thanks for the information and suggestions. Im not super focused on megapixel and resolution, mostly because I tend to care less about video and more about individual images that are taken during alerts. Correct me if Im wrong though, but I should be able to get higher resolution images with a...

    "Best" Current Recommended Cameras

    Firstly, I checked the first 1-3 pages for similar posts so I apologize if I missed something. I know that "best this for that" posts are always such a cliche. I am looking at upgrading my external cameras. I would like to stick with turret or dome cameras. I feel I get better results with...

    Anyone ever seen Blue Iris cause massive ping spikes?

    They did seem to go hand in hand. Not entirely sure what happened and not sure I want to dig through all my network logs.

    Anyone ever seen Blue Iris cause massive ping spikes?

    Woke up this morning, tried to log into the html viewer for BI, its extremely slow and intermittent. I start a ping test to my BI server and see: Reply from 192.168.1.100: bytes=32 time=983ms TTL=128 Reply from 192.168.1.100: bytes=32 time=960ms TTL=128 Reply from 192.168.1.100: bytes=32...

    How can I debug I/O errors?

    The issue started again after about an hour and continued on with 100+ signal losses every hour. I was able to resolve this myself. The issue was related to a new setting in Hikvision Firmware: H.264+ was set to True. Apparently BI has some issues with this setting. As soon as I set it to...

    How can I debug I/O errors?

    Im less concerned about the timeline. That just seems to be maybe some sort of caching or disk reading issue. It fixes itself. But the underlying issue is still the IO Error O's from the cameras that have been working for years with no connection loss. I'll try downgrading back to 5.2.4.x...

    How can I debug I/O errors?

    This has happened in the previous update, as well as my current: 5.2.5.3 I see another new version, worth a try?

    How can I debug I/O errors?

    I also notice when this happens, that the display bars stop updating. Even though some of that data is there, they just keep on showing no activity unless I reboot BI. Then it fills in the missing chunks, even though the video doesnt exist for a few seconds or minutes. BEFORE: AFTER BI...

    How can I debug I/O errors?

    I have had BI running with my same Hikvision cameras, going on 3-4 years or more. I've never really had an issue with them until recently. Now, I keep getting I/O errors on both cameras. Sometimes its for 2 seconds, other times its as long as 20-30 minutes. During this time, I am able to...

    IR - PTZ stopped working since last update

    Other fix. I had to change the HTTP port in my cameras settings, after a FW update. I changed it to one port, then changed it back to port 80. After that, BI was able to do PTZ over HTTP again. Who knows..

    IR - PTZ stopped working since last update

    Fix to this is to go into Hikvision UI, go to Network > Advanced > Network Service and enable Enable Enhanced SDK Service. Then in BI -> Camera Properties -> PTZ Control -> change port to 8443 (without the colon you are used to in front of it), then enable HTTPS. You'll now have full PTZ...

    IR - PTZ stopped working since last update

    I just updated to latest: 5.2.3.2 build and ever since I did, I can no longer control IR with PTZ. Everything else works with PTZ control except IR. Any ideas on how to fix this?
