    1984 becoming reality? Or is reality already here?

    I suppose it is fitting that the above is a dead link.

    Blue iris all of a sudden using 100% CPU

    I just installed 6.0.1.27 and have no CPU usage issue. Did not install .26.

    A "good" multi-lens for BI?

    The drop-down choices left of the path input just fill the path box with predetermined values Blue Iris discovered by using ONVIF. The value in the path box is what matters, not the drop-down. Anyway, it does seem like they did not make the other two video channels available via RTSP, since...

    Yes if you read what I wrote, I suspected a browser addon at fault.

    A "good" multi-lens for BI?

    My intent was not for /tcp/av2_0 to be in the sub stream path box. For testing purposes leave the sub stream path blank and only enter things into the main stream path box, otherwise you risk misunderstanding what you're getting because Blue Iris will only show you one stream at a time and you...

    A "good" multi-lens for BI?

    Try /tcp/av1_0 and /tcp/av2_0. It makes no sense that they would require proprietary software for some video streams when they are all fundamentally the same.

    UI3 error when starting up with the latest update in v6

    Something external is likely interfering. Try in a private/incognito window where there are no addons loaded. This also isolates you from any cookie conflicts in case you are accessing more than one web app on the same domain name (but different port number) and they are both trying to create...

    A "good" multi-lens for BI?

    It seems likely you can make your current camera work in Blue Iris. You just need to figure out what you need to change in the RTSP URL. Possibly it is just a matter of increasing or decreasing the channel number by 1.

    A "good" multi-lens for BI?

    Here are a couple options for a PTZ. Both give you a 180 degree "Dual Lens" panoramic stream in addition to a standard PTZ. Lower price, worse PTZ performance: https://empiretech01.com/products/empiretech-ptz3e10x-t180-1-2-8-cmos-8mp-4mp-10x-starlight-tioc-network-panoramic-ptz-camera Higher...

    A "good" multi-lens for BI?

    What are you talking about specifically? Do you mean a PTZ with 1 or 2 static/fixed wide angle lenses built in to its base? Which model do you have that doesn't work well in Blue Iris?

    Blue Iris UI3

    Settings for this already exist in the Clips / Alerts category. Try configuring it as I've shown here, especially the two with red arrows in them. Then you need to be looking at the "Alerts" list (clip list filtered to "Alerts"). There's a shortcut button for this near the top right. And...

    Since many years ago, Blue Iris has extremely limited fisheye dewarping capability, which only is usable for clip playback, not live view. The most useful mode is one designed for ceiling-mounted fisheye cameras, but like I said it is very limited (only works for clips) which is a poor...

    Dahua TPC-SD2241-T Thermal ptz suddenly go crazy

    Does the issue affect all 7 cameras? Or only a specific 3? Is the 2:00 reboot scheduled daily or weekly? (consider doing it daily if not already, in case the issue is due to a memory leak) Are you close to the PoE budget on any of the switches powering the cameras? Are the switches capable...

    YouTube Live Streams

    Also you can have Blue Iris group as many cameras as you want into one stream; it doesn't have to be 4. It can be anywhere from 2 to 128. Other software may be able to do this too actually. Probably ffmpeg could for example, but I'm not sure how well it would handle things like a temporary...

    YouTube Live Streams

    Since you mentioned a "slideshow", Blue Iris can automatically cycle between the cameras in a group so you could have the image just change periodically. However it has been a bit buggy in my experience. Works best if all the cameras are the same aspect ratio.

    YouTube Live Streams

    I suppose you could create more Google accounts. Can you live streaming program accept any RTSP stream? You could technically use Blue Iris to join every 4 cameras into one "group" stream and live stream that. It would be rather CPU intensive though to do at high resolution and frame rate...

    How to remotely reset the no signal counter with the app or UI3

    UI3 does not offer a way to reset that counter. I just looked in Blue Iris's help file and did not see a method UI3 or the mobile apps could use to accomplish it either.

    IPCampower Switch Issue Question

    How loud is that thing? Any idea of power consumption? Cisco's datasheet here seems to suggest it uses 70 watts at 5% throughput, although to be fair that is probably with all ports populated and pushing multiple gigabits per second of data, which you won't normally be doing. But I know for...

    Replacing with new hardware would only solve anything if the issue is coming from a hardware defect in the older switch(es). It is certainly possible, but how likely that is, I could not say.

    does anyone make a high output multi port POE injector?

    I've seen PoE Texas around for many years selling multi-port PoE injectors. They always looked legitimate to me, but I never bought anything from them because I never had a situation where it made sense to buy their multi-port injectors versus just getting a regular PoE+ switch or whatever.

    bottleneck

    I don't think dual processor systems are supported well by Blue Iris (or most other software for that matter). If CPU load is even close to 50%, that is more like 100%. I don't think Blue Iris can go meaningfully over 50% on a dual CPU system, is what I'm saying. Also, if it is a dual...

    Reducing CPU Usage

    Yes, the i5-9500 max temperature is 100°C, so having it at 90°C is rather hot but also not hot enough that I would expect major performance loss due to throttling. The CPU frequency is up around 4000-4200 MHz which is near its turbo boost limit of 4400 MHz. Definitely check for dust buildup...

    Only if the CPU temperature is high. Then it wouldn't hurt to clean off the old and add new as long as the new paste isn't old and dried out. I have a tube of this.. https://amazon.com/dp/B0BGS99833 You don't need to apply much, but if in doubt, it is okay to add too much. The worst it will...

    Static IP setup , Camera, router, or both?

    Yes, I recommend assigning a static IP to everything involved. Don't forget to assign a static IP to the Blue Iris computer too! Managed switches and wireless bridges don't strictly need their management interfaces to be assigned a static address, because they should be transparently passing...

    Reducing CPU Usage

    That is a wild amount of CPU usage for not even having BI running. It may be time for an OS reinstall. You could try debloating first just to see if it makes a difference. I've used Revision before -- install with Ameliorated -- These debloating tools generally are recommended to be used on a...

    Gremlin UFO in the Camera

    That is pretty weird. Seeing it in a main stream (higher resolution than the above) and in night conditions may help us identify it. I doubt it is inside the camera because that would be extremely out of focus but this looks fairly sharp. Also if it was inside the camera it would not be moving.
