Re: Seeking help with substream settings for Foscam FI9831W camera

I'm seeking guidance on fine-tuning the R4M camera's settings for optimal use. The camera is currently set at a 2K resolution with a bitrate of 1.5 Mbps, and I'm considering increasing the bitrate to 4 Mbps, as it supports up to a 6 Mbps maximum. Given that storage capacity is not a concern for me, ...

Re: Seeking help with substream settings for Foscam FI9831W camera

I updated the firmware on the FI9832W quite some time ago and have since verified on the Foscam support website that it remains the latest version, with no updates since 2019. However, upon receiving the R4M early this morning, I replaced the old camera. The swap was quick, with PoE and bracket all ...

Updating you on the situation, I've contacted Foscam, who initially thought the issue was related to Blue Iris. However, I believed the camera was at fault. After a discussion, their support team asked for codec details from VLC for the specific sub-stream, which I've supplied. Here's the codec snip...

Re: Seeking help with substream settings for Foscam FI9831W camera

This is the glitch I'm dealing with here, and it only started after I increased the bitrate from 2M to 4M for my balcony camera. At the same time, I switched the encoder in BI from Intel + VPP to just Intel and managed to get this tricky sub stream working, which is now just mirroring the main strea...

Re: Seeking help with substream settings for Foscam FI9831W camera

Before I proceed with any changes, I must mention that I'm unsure if this is related to my recent adjustment of the bitrate from 2M to 4M, but I'm experiencing screen tearing (a clear need for vsync). Additionally, when my Amazon package was just delivered, the balcony skipped quite a few frames. Fo...

Re: Seeking help with substream settings for Foscam FI9831W camera

A major oversight was discovered in the discrep...
