Software scope

Amcrest Blue Iris Professional V5 is Windows software that turns a compatible PC into a network video recorder. It supports up to 64 cameras from a long list of brands including Amcrest, Axis, Hikvision and many others. The licence is aimed at home owners and small businesses that want a single console for mixed camera types.

Sustained recording behaviour

The program records continuously, on a schedule or only when motion or audio is detected. H.265 and H.264 compression reduce the storage and bandwidth needed for long-term capture. Snapshots can be saved as JPEG while video is stored in AVI, DVR or Windows Media formats.

Integration and alerts

E-mail and SMS text alerts are generated from the same interface that handles live view and playback. The software connects to IP cameras, webcams, capture cards and the PC desktop without additional hardware. A separate Blue Iris licence is required and provides one year of updates with lifetime technical support from Amcrest Direct.

Questions about this item

How much electricity does the Blue Iris V5 software draw when it records 24 hours a day?

Blue Iris V5 is a Windows application, so its power draw depends entirely on the PC hardware you run it on; the software itself has no independent power rating.

What hardware must I already own before the Blue Iris V5 licence will function?

You need a Windows PC that meets Blue Iris system requirements, at least one supported IP camera or capture device, and available storage for recordings.

Will my older analog cameras that use a capture card work alongside new IP cameras in Blue Iris V5?

Yes, the software supports up to 64 cameras simultaneously, mixing analog capture cards, webcams, DVR/CCTV units and IP cameras from the listed brands.
