    Evaluation Watermark out of nowhere, Blue Iris sent me here for old version.

    I have a confusing situation, hoping somebody here can help. Last month the Evaluation banner showed up on one of the BI systems I help manage. This system does NOT pay for updates, and has never paid for updates since the initial year expired in 2021, which is fine for its purposes. Last...

    Western Digital Purple Drive "Preventative Wear Levelling" thumping sound

    I just installed a brand new 18TB WD Purple drive in my Blue Iris PC, and it's somewhat noisy. The noise is a mechanical thump or something between a thump and a click that happens every 3-10 seconds (the drive is writing nonstop 24 hours a day 6 camera feeds direct-to-disk). I believe this...

    Recurring BSODs on Blue Iris PC, "Memory Management"

    This has happened 3 times now in the last week, I haven't been able to narrow down what action I'm doing that might cause it or if Blue Iris is related or not. The computer will BSOD with a stop code "MEMORY MANAGEMENT", count to 100% and "restart" and then lock up with a black screen and not...

There's 3 remaining from way back in 2020 but all protected clips since then are gone. I usually export the important ones but a few...

    What card can help with deepstack?

    I'm currently running 4 cams, Intel 4th Gen in a SFF desktop box (no full sized cards). Windows CPU deepstack pegs my CPU to 100 and take 500-1000 ms for analysis. The Docker version is much better (sub 400ms and no CPU pegging), but I can't integrate that directly with Blue Iris so I'm...

    Can't get cameras to sync correctly with proper time all the time

    I want my camera feeds coming into Blue Iris to always have the correct time and self adjust for DST. Right now, I have to log in to each camera from my camserver 2x per year and click "PC Sync" to fix the time on each. There is an option to sync to NTP server with the default being...
