Blue Iris

Once the DST occured at 2:00AM BlueIris started triggering repeated Onvif error 8000ffff on my 5 Hikvision Cameras. I use direct to disk recording and rely on the cameras to trigger BI to record. There are recordings prior to 2:00PM, nothing after. I am currently on V 5.8.7.11 but tried 5.8.8.3 and 5.8.8.2 without success. When I do an inspect I get the following results.

I had the same multiple Onvif "Events: Request 8000ffff" at exactly 3am, on most but not all cameras, but recordings were not impacted.
BI 5.8.7.11 and cpai 2.5.6

I found a November post in IP Cam Talk referring to an issue with Onvif 8000ffff errors when DST ended. Seems there was a BI bug.

2:00am is also when Blue Iris performs its daily database maintenance unless otherwise changed to a different schedule.

Could be related.

Just now, ONVIF error 8000ffff ceased without me changing anything. From DST change at 2:00AM until now ONVIF connect to the hikvision cameras would not authenticate, and now, it does. I am at a loss to explain but it seems to have something to do with the DST change.
