If I gave PC's to every one of my installs, I just feel that it would be a nightmare for myself.ġ) yes but you are very limited, particularly if you want to use advanced motion detection available in the camera.Ģ) I mean different sensitivity for motion recording vs motion alerts. I'm not saying a quality PC cannot do the job and a tech savy person can use BI to it's full potential, but I am personally more interested in more user friendly, simple plug and play for the end user, and less maintenance. I think I had to return two of them due to a problem and that was a week after install so more than likely it was defective. I have over 200 NVR's that I have personally installed in the past 2 years alone. I have over 20 blue iris machines running as smooth as butter.the key is using a quality machine dedicated to the vms.Īlso with a pc, if there is a hardware issue you can quickly replace it with a pc from any local store and just import the config file.whereas if your NVR dies a to order it wait for delivery and reprogram it (if its not the same model).ġ) Even on an NVR you can use different brand cameras, maybe not as many, but you can.Ģ) An NVR can adjust sensitivity and even set different sensitivity levels in different areas of the imageģ) An NVR can set a different schedule for different types of recordingsĤ) In an NVR you can disable/enable motion detection alerts and chose which camerasĥ) I never saw the BI app, but I really like IDMSSĦ) Once I program my NVR, I don't need my phone to change settingsħ) Certain NVR's, not low end ones can record to an external HDD and internal at the same timeġ0) I might be able to do this with an alarm option, I think the cube camera even does this and lets you upload an audio file of your own?ġ2) Better NVR's can do this, spot monitoringġ3) I do not use FTP, but I believe an NVR can This is for blue iris.ġ) use a combination of almost any camerasĢ) Set distinct motion sensitivity recording vs alerts, this is important to minimize false alerts but still capture all movement.ģ) Set distinct motion settings for night vs day based on sunrise sunset (so it adjust automatically through the year)Ĥ) easily disable/enable motion detection or alerts when you get home or leave-you can pick and choose which cameras will still be active.for example, you can have the indoor cameras to be disabled but the outdoor cams to record and alert.ĥ) The mobile app is MUCH easier to use and review video than NVR'sĦ) The server app is much easier to use than an NVR interface.ħ) simultaneously record to local storage and nas.Ĩ) you can setup storage so that some cameras (primary) store footage for longer periods than others.ĩ) You can take a single camera feed and split it onto several virtual cameras (this helps if you want to give a user access to only a specific portion of the camera feed).ġ0) if your camera supports audio out (talk) you can send any prerecorded alert to play though the camera upon motion.ġ1) If you camera supports audio in your can trigger recording on audio detection.ġ2) if you have a matrix setup for live view where one camera is larger than others so you can see it better, you can set blue iris to display the camera that is detecting motion on the larger view. Here are just a few things - there are many many more. were the pc's you were troubleshooting modern systems with decent vms? or were the old systems using analog cameras with encoder cards built into the pc?
