    Dahua SD50225U-HNI - Starlight

    So this morning, somehow the camera is working again. Fortunately for me it started snowing yesterday so the tree guy couldnt make it. Now it works. While I tried different injectors, can someone recommend a good Amazon or Ebay link for a better injector? I have a pool at my place - the...

    Dahua SD50225U-HNI - Starlight

    Thanks - I will keep that in mind. I do have a tester & that will be the first thing I do, second thing will be to take a POE camera, plug it in, then take the old camera & plug it into another device & see if it is still dead. I would imagine getting warranty service on that will be...

    Dahua SD50225U-HNI - Starlight

    I will check the box but it was honeywell blue cat6 - Without the plastic thing in the middle of the cable. The cat6 was run in a conduit & was sitting on this tree for 2 years (all in a conduit).

    Dahua SD50225U-HNI - Starlight

    Hi, I bought the above camera from Andy from this board (shipped very fast). I purchased in in June 2018 - this is my second SD50225U - I like the camera very much. The June 2018 unit I purchased sat in my office plugged into a POE switch for about 3 months, then I deployed it on a tree (80...

    Recommendation for a 4MP turret style IP, POE camera?

    Hi, I am looking for something like this: https://www.cctv101.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/ds-2cd2335fwd-ib_1.jpg Does Dahua make a black turret camera with IR in the 4mp range? I would like to mount this on a tree near the bottom of my driveway and ideally black would blend in...

    New Blue Iris Setup - Plenty of compute power, but poor performance.

    Hi - I was about to start my own thread as I am thinking of picking up a Dell R720 using Esxi - same sort of thing you were planning but mine would have less threads. Just curious how you end up in this. Not sure if the Dual CPU route will help.

    UI3 Questions

    Hi, I am beginning to understand why people keep the BI app at 1FPS – because they don’t use that as a viewer – they use UI3. Sorry I am late to the party. My PC is an I7 4790 with 16gb ram & a SSD. I have a few questions: 1. Can I restrict the UI3 interface to a specific group (say...

    Hi, I am looking to do this on one of my TV's. We have some interior & exterior cameras. Is it possible to have the browser only display the outside cameras vs all cameras? Thanks, Rich

    Blue Iris Licensing issue

    Hi, I bought BI from IPcamtalk & have been using it for a few weeks. Today I have a customers new I5 8400 PC with 8gb of ram (I have a I7 4790 16 gb ram) with Windows 10. I deactivated the BI software on my I7, exported the config, then on the I5/8gb I installed the software, installed the...

    What do you use for Blue Iris server remote access

    Hi - I know this is a post from early 2018 but thank you - this was very helpful for me - I was trying to figure why RDP was so slow to refresh.

    So is a 15 FPS that important to BI?

    Hi, So I have had cameras for years & have been using Geovision to power my system. Geovision uses a substream for live viewing, then switches to the main stream when you click on a camera to view. It records in the main stream. I am running into CPU issues with many cameras and am having a...

    How does Blue Iris handle FTP access?

    Hi, I setup FTP access for Blue Iris - not entirely sure how to make it send all files to FTP by default. My ftp server is part of a Freenas box with FTP turned on. I tested it & it works. If my freenas box reboots or shuts down - what will Blue Iris do? I had a shared directory setup...

    Proper way to hear audio through web server?

    Hi, I am having some issues using the audio portion of blue iris with my cameras. On the web server I have several cameras. If i want to listen to the audio from camera 1, I would expect I click on that image, get the live feed, then increase the volume to hear. When I do this i hear no...

    Ebay "Spy" cameras & BI?

    Thank you for the link. I have used Onvif Device Manager a bunch of times - unfortunately neither of these two cameras are Onvif compliant. If i use the url: http://192.168.1.24/media/?action=stream I can get a stream - though it is a 720 stream - not really sure how to get 1080- if it is...

    Ebay "Spy" cameras & BI?

    Hi, So I bought two of those USB charger "cameras" (two different vendors, similar style products). They have web admin pages to login, make changes, etc. I have them both working with Blue Iris and my android IPCamviewer Pro. With Blue Iris, I added a new network camera, put the IP...

    BI - 45 Cameras, I7 4790. 16gb, 250SSD - 100% CPU Usage

    Thanks for all the responses. To confirm, I can't use BI to stream a RTSP stream (from Blue Iris) to Geovision. Overall the suggestion is to keep Geovision & use Blue Iris only for the cameras that Geovision doesnt support? Or buy a brand new super machine with a ton of cores & give that...

    BI - 45 Cameras, I7 4790. 16gb, 250SSD - 100% CPU Usage

    Thank you - i did install GPU Z - I have used CPUID - Where would I see the Hardware Acceleration with GPUZ? So I should set all BI cameras to use Camera Motion detection & that will help with the CPU usage?

    BI - 45 Cameras, I7 4790. 16gb, 250SSD - 100% CPU Usage

    So what i dont fully understand is my old 'crappy' Geovision seems to handle 45 cameras fine & not many people are using that many in BI. Those that are are at very high CPU usage. I find it shocking that Geovision could be more efficient in anything - they do updates once every blue moon...

    BI - 45 Cameras, I7 4790. 16gb, 250SSD - 100% CPU Usage

    I started with the demo, added cameras, then changed it to direct to disk. I then added the license a few hours later. Is it possible setting the Direct to disk in demo mode made it not work when in full version mode? All my cameras are set for BI to detect motion - not the cameras. Is that...

    BI - 45 Cameras, I7 4790. 16gb, 250SSD - 100% CPU Usage

    Hi, This would be very interesting - the using BI to send the image to Geovision. Geovision allows Onvif, RTSP, & PISA (not sure about PISA). Is there a way for BI to send a stream in that manner? Looking at this thread: H.264 live stream URL? I am not sure if this will work. I am...

    BI - 45 Cameras, I7 4790. 16gb, 250SSD - 100% CPU Usage

    Hi, I am currently using a Geovision Pro VMS System. It works well for my needs but is lacking after 10+ years of usage. My Ip cameras range from Geovision, Dahua, Hikvision, and a bunch of PIR Onvif cameras. I recently bought a USB “charger” style camera & couldn’t get it working with...

    Dahua Starlight Recessed Dome PTZ (SD52C225U-HNI)

    So is it silly to get another one of this model vs buying something newer? I need another camera - I have a Sunba 601 which I am thinking of dumping in favor of the auto tracking functionality of the SD52C225. Its not perfect but does a decent job. The price jump from 2mp to 4mp is pretty...

    Dahua Starlight Recessed Dome PTZ (SD52C225U-HNI)

    Hi - I have purchased a SD52C225U - runs great - i was thinking about adding another one but its gone from the Dahua website - did they stop selling it - is it EOL already? Any suggestions for a replacement or something with a higher resolution?

    XProtect Smart Client + GPU acceleration

    Would a 6th gen I7, 32gigs ram, with Xprotect be able to run a 50 camera server with roughly 40* 2mp, 5*3mp & 5*4mp cameras? Or would that overwhelm a single server?

    Hikvision IPC Firmware 5.5.0 - released 24 Sept 2017

    Hi - sorry - I miswrote that - it is in the same folder but nothing happens. C:\Tftp is in the root, the digicap.dav file was in the same folder. The camera was pingable at the 192.0.0.64 ip from the 'server' at 192.0.0.128
