I have a Tyco / Illustra PTZ that I believe is a rebranded Hikvision DS-2DF8236I5X-AEL(W).
There's something going on with it and Blue Iris. Most of the time, no issues, but then the stream will slow down and I get the error "Check FPS and key rates".
Sometimes the error goes away and the stream "catches up" and works fine again until it happens again. Other times, it goes to a "No Signal" after being on the "Check FPS and key rates" error.
It's like there's a backlog of frames that are trying to get through but can't, and then they all come through at once before resuming normal operation. Which just reminded me, I have seen a message that says "frame bottleneck" as well, but it's very rare.
There have been times where it never recovers from "no signal" and I have to reset the switch, again it feels like to clear the backlog of frames that aren't getting through.
When all this happens, the camera's web interface is perfectly fine. I never have problems pinging the camera or viewing the live feed in the camera's interface. The problems seems to be with blue iris.
In the configuration, I have constant bitrate, H264, 30 FPS, I frame interval 30. I've tried 25 FPS along with bitrates as low as 6144 with no change in behavior.
In BI, I have the max rate set to 30.00 fps, no decoding, continuous recording BVR direct to disc. I don't use substreams at all with this camera.
