    Proxmox BI setup

    I’ve got Proxmox fully set up, and my Blue Iris VM is working almost completely normally. I installed the stable version I’ve been running for the past year (5.9.9.73), imported my .reg backup, and transferred my license. However, I’m not receiving push notifications on my phone for any IVS...

    Proxmox BI setup

    I checked my settings and realized Hardware Acceleration wasn't enabled. My Proxmox setup is ready now, though—the Windows VM is prepped for Blue Iris with your recommended settings, and I've temporarily set the HDD to read-only during the setup phase. How do you like Proxmox? Blue Iris has...

    Proxmox BI setup

    Got bored and transitioning my windows 11 homelab to Proxmox. Ill have a Debian VM for my Jellyfin server that definitely needs iGPU passed through. I currently have 7 cams that record direct to disk that get alerts from IVS rules. Am I going to suffer by not having an iGPU or will it not be...

    Looks like Ubiquiti has lost its steam and their pricing structure is extremely manipulative

    Excited to see how the Omada NVR116P-2T and the Fusion 2.5G PoE are priced and how their NVR suite is.

    Color4M-T (3.6mm)

    Didn't have a need to add a 7th camera but won this guy from Andy's raffle so I spent the weekend running conduit under the driveway to my detached garage to feed this fella. Above the camera is a dusk to dawn light so this is my one camera that runs in color 24/7. Suppose I need a bigger...

    Should you install CCTV Cameras yourself or hire a professional?

    I'd say its largely dependent on how difficult the cat6 drops are in your residence. Once cabling is ran the rest is all downhill from there.

    So close with Unifi Protect

    Yup! 4K: 1 camera 2K: Up to 2 cameras HD: Up to 3 cameras I’ve read they have a TON of headroom so I’m optimistic they’ll push an update for possibly 3-4 2k cams per port, I know they could.

    So close with Unifi Protect

    The way I look at it…I want protect but not their dogshit cameras. G6 Pro is 550$. A 5442 cost me 180 and a port per 2 cameras works out to 280 per cam. That’s how I swallowed it.

    So close with Unifi Protect

    I tried and couldn't get it to work with Tripwires, he has since pushed an update that is supposed to fix that but. I subsequently deployed an ai port recently and have been pretty impressed.

    It looks like better ONVIF support is coming to UniFi Protect

    Ai port has been implemented, its pretty cool. Curious to see how reliable it is, I have read they can be buggy and randomly reboot or unpair with cameras. If the are deemed reliable, I just need to get a powershell written to make free space on an external archived SMB share and we'll be...

    PTZ call to zone and tracking problems

    Finally got a a chance to mess with this, no luck. The presets are set on the PTZ's GUI. Do they need to be added to BI instead?

    Need recommendations on PTZ cameras.

    Listen to Wittaj and Bigred. Bite the bullet and get the PTZ5A4M-25X and use spotter cams. You will not be disappointed.

    Omada versus Ubiquiti

    Yeah, the eitherlighting has the augmented reality feature too. The most helpful feature is if you have several say cameras and don't know what one goes where, you can ping it from the console and it will make the port lighting flash. I have used that a few times before my was organized and...

    Omada versus Ubiquiti

    For 16-24 port switches? Not really it just looks cool and you can tell what plugs are going to what vlans. Now if you have multiple 48 port switches I could see it being argued as useful.

    PTZ call to zone and tracking problems

    There's hope! I will play around with it tonight. Thanks!

    I don't think the wife will be happy about another PTZ on the front of the house lol

    PTZ call to zone and tracking problems

    I have a PTZ5A4M-25 and two spotter B54IT-Z4E-S3 (north & south). I have the PTZ on preset 1 to view my street to the north. I have it configured to be called to preset 2 (south) when the south spotter cam is triggered. However when the PTZ is tracking someone walking from north to south...

    Omada versus Ubiquiti

    Now we just need Omada to make some switches with etherlighting lmao

    Omada versus Ubiquiti

    Omada's new Fusion Gateway and newly released Fusion 2.5G PoE look awesome. Can create ultimately the same configured network of a Unifi schematic for hundreds of dollars cheaper. Their GUI is basically copycatted off Unifi's as well LOL

    Don’t have my my ai port yet. But yes these are the individual camera settings within Protect.

    It looks like better ONVIF support is coming to UniFi Protect

    All are the T54IR-ZE-S3. Some through Protect show the High and Low quality streams. One shows no streams to choose from and my newest added camera let's me disable the low quality stream. Currently chatting with support... T54IR-ZE-S3

    It looks like better ONVIF support is coming to UniFi Protect

    In Protect I have different recording options for all of my 5442 cams. One cam shows the high quality and low quality streams to choose from. One show's the high qulaity and lets me disable the low quality stream, and the other does show any of the options. Have you experienced this issue...

    It looks like better ONVIF support is coming to UniFi Protect

    Well I broke down and snagged an ai port and rack mount for 6 ai ports. Curious to see how they perform. Just rebuilt the homelab so there is plenty of space to add some new toys to play with.

    It looks like better ONVIF support is coming to UniFi Protect

    Do you have to adjust the camera resolutions on the 5442's in order to get two cameras per AI port?

    So close with Unifi Protect

    No but that is sweet, are you using it? I've been going back and fourth with Ubiquiti support sending them the various onvif lines from ivs notifications so it would be cool if they implement them into Protect.

    So close with Unifi Protect

    I have a Unifi ecosystem and the mobile camera quality wildly better than blue iris. BI has a special place in my heart but if I can get protect to function with my IVS rules, I'm definitely making the switch. I will still leave BI on my server for redundancy.

    So close with Unifi Protect

    I am able to get motion detections via enabling SMD but we are still not receiving detections with IVS rules. The camera send's the standard onvif alerts with IVS enabled: RuleEngine/CellMotionDetector/Motion (basic motion) RuleEngine/LineDetector/Crossed RuleEngine/FieldDetector/Intrusion...

    New Server Build (Need input)

    I'm putting together a Sliger rack-mounted NAS built around an i5-14600K, 32 GB of RAM, and an HBA SAS/SATA controller supporting up to 12 drives. It'll mainly host Jellyfin and Blue Iris. I'm torn on the OS. Part of me wants to keep it simple with a stripped-down Windows 11 install and just...
