    help optimize my system..

    OK, that's helpful. I can live with 35-40% usage, the computer isn't being used for anything else really. just seemed high, made me think I had a setting off somewhere.

    help optimize my system..

    just upgraded to BI 5, and overall CPU usage seems high -- I'm consistently running around 35-40%... any thoughts on my config? (note, I understand this build is probably slight overkill for BI, just stuff I had laying around): Hardware: i9-900k/32g ddr4 samsung 970pro 1tb boot drive, 3x wd...

    Anyone running bi in a vm?

    Hmm, I'll have to look into it more, I dont think I'm running limit decoding, but I'll check. And just to be clear, I'm not debating that a dedicated box is the best option. Plainly it is. And I've built a machine based on much of the sage advice in this forum, this is more of a experiment...

    Anyone running bi in a vm?

    Why would reliability be an issue? I'm running on a machine with 36 physical cores/72 threads, 128gigs of ram windows server 2016. It's a Dell poweredge server, running 24/7, with multiple redundancies. I'm running several vm's running various server roles, 24/7. I've been running if for over a...

    Anyone running bi in a vm?

    I'm running an underutilized dell server at home for domain in various rolls. I setup a hyper v vm running windows 10 and setup bi with 10 4k cameras, set for 10fps at full resolution. The server chip does not have quick sync. Even so, the vm is o fly running at around 20% (8 core virtual cpu...

    Using single POE cable to power mic and camera

    On the micro seven splitter, is the ethernet output also powered? Unclear from the description.

    Using single POE cable to power mic and camera

    Huh, based on the description, that looks like exactly what I was looking for... I'm going to try it, if I can replace the extender and splitter with that, everything may fit into a single box... thx.

    Using single POE cable to power mic and camera

    That's a splitter, not an extender. I have that, and the problem is that the ethernet line is unpowered. So using that, you're left with an unpowered ethernet line for your camera. I have yet to find a part that splits an incoming line into a powered ethernet line and a DC out for the mic...

    Using single POE cable to power mic and camera

    Yeah, it's weird, I haven't taken it apart, but there must be an opamp in there, there's one in and two out, potential drop on a meter across both outs is the same. Weird too because one out is labeled data, the other is labeled camera. But so far it works, going strong now the entire weekend.

    Using single POE cable to power mic and camera

    Been lucking this forum a while looking for an easy way to do this … I have few dhaua from andy, and wanted to add a mic without having to add a power outlet for the DC in on the mic (camera is nowhere near power). a POE line should have sufficient voltage to run both the camera and a mic, but...
