Software freezing / getting slow

[alezord]

Hello,

I have 88 cameras installed in a building. Last week the owner asked me to change his TV to a bigger one, so he could fit more than 32 cameras in the screen, that was the setup installed before. So I upgraded to windows 10 and downloaded the last version of iVMS (from hikvision). But suddenly, I can't even add 16 cameras to the screen without the software crashes or even all the cameras getting a enormous delay.

The IVMS software shows that the CPU is running at 100%, but the windows task manager says ~30%.

Does anyone have any ideia of how to solve this problem?

Thanks!

Yes, use a real VMS.

Now, having said that you might find a way for iVMS to use hardware decode acceleration if you are using a late model Intel processor. Have a look at your graphics drivers to make sure you have the latest one that offers quicksync, and check the (mostly useless) Hikvision release notes to see if you can find a version that does what you need it to do. They tend to break stuff from version to version (like their camera firmware) and sometimes you need to stick to an older version to keep things working. Short of that the easy way out is to set iVMS to display the second stream on each camera and configure those for MJPEG. Much lower decode load.
From a purely monitoring standpoint, 32 cameras on a single screen is lunacy but I guess the customer is always right.
