I have 6 cameras and 8 rules total. Some of the cameras have overlapping views or present a progression of paths that people can take near, onto, or on my property. I like to be able to view the entire list and look for clips that met a rule, view that video clip and then look at the other cameras t...

I don't work for Sighthound but maybe I can offer some minor help as I am a long time user of the program and have experienced some things similar to what you describe. I am presently running just 1 IP cam (the other 5 are USB) and I am accessing it with both SightHound and a browser (IE10 via the c...

I recognize your feelings that saving this useless data is really a waste of something, no matter how short the time is that it exists. I do commiserate with you! But my consternation is even deeper... just think of how many electrons have been tossed around in the computer, just comparing one frame...

Ah yes... I keep my PCs so "clean" that I tend to forget about clogged folders. I use "CCleaner" to keep my PCs free of a lot of these extraneous files that get left behind. Free and paid versions from Piriform at: "http://www.piriform.com/ccleaner" It has several funct...

As soon as your computer finishes booting up, run Task Manager and monitor the processes to see if one (or more) are using excessive CPU time for those 1st few minutes. To run Task Manager, Right -click on the Task Bar at the bottom of the screen (on most systems) and select "Task Manager"...

Never mind it being something in SightHound. I have been having an ongoing problem with my IP cam dropping the connection periodically. It occurs at random times and occurs more and more often as the age of the system progresses. If I turn off the computer, camera and router, and restart them all, t...

Does SightHound have some event that occurs on an approximate 5-minute 55-second (355-seconds) interval?
