V6 ^new^: Blueiris

Blue Iris V5 introduced "substreams," which reduced CPU usage from 80% to 15% by decoding low-res streams for motion detection while recording high-res direct-to-disk.

This paper provides a general overview of Blue Iris V6 and its implications. For a more detailed analysis, specific case studies, and technical insights, further research and access to proprietary information from the developers of Blue Iris would be necessary. blueiris v6

Blue Iris v6 is a Windows-based, local-first video surveillance and NVR (network video recorder) application for managing IP and USB cameras. It’s designed for home and small-business security setups and focuses on robust motion detection, recording flexibility, and extensive third-party integrations. Blue Iris V5 introduced "substreams," which reduced CPU

This results in a compared to V5 on the exact same hardware. Blue Iris v6 is a Windows-based, local-first video
