Looking for an outdoor wifi solar camera that supports getting an image via a URL. Thanks for any suggestions.

Yes, I didn't really need anything higher for what I was doing, and I was trying to get more storage time vs frames. However on the one camera I increased from 2 FPS to 6 FPS, the amount of time to create a 4GB file only dropped from 90 minutes to about 80 minutes. There was also similarly no...

I did follow the Wiki when setting up substreams and just reviewed again. Everything seems to be in order...Other than I have my main stream set to 2 FPS and sub set to 4. Setting the main to 4 helps a little but does not completely resolve the issue. Hardware acceleration is off at the...

JPEG HD is not giving the OCOD, but I'm only getting an updated image every 3-5 seconds. It's a dual processor system under Proxmox, but I've dedicated 10 CPUs to BI. The cameras are set to stream at 2 FPS h.264. The other thing I've noticed is that if BI has been running for a day or so...

I'm on BI 5.5.6.21. I keep getting the Orange Circle of Death on UI3 when I switch to viewing a single camera. It doesn't matter what resolution I try. I'm using the HTML5 viewer with both the latest versions of Chrome and Edge. It says the stream is becoming delayed and it's a compatability...

While trying to do a little system tuning, I switched over to the "App History" tab of the Task Manager. I saw that some useless Windows apps had been consuming some CPU and memory resources, so I dug in on how to remove them. This is what I came up with: Open a PowerShell command window as...

You still haven't answered the question.... Why are you asking if you need to replace your CPU? What is it not doing that you want it to do? There's usually a reason someone wants to upgrade. What is the reason?

Zoneminder is probably the number 1 Linux NVR app. I'm surprised it didn't come up for you on a Google search? I've never run it, but the pictures make it look decent. I intend to try it some day. But I've been using Blue Iris since version 3, so I'm fairly entrenched in it. The only...

Molotok, You're not really telling us what the problem is. What problem are you trying to solve? What do you think is wrong with the current setup that you think you need to replace it? What is it not doing that you want it to do?

Yes, it would be, because then the Android and IOS apps, Chromecast, et all, could use it as well. I don't know why this would be all that hard. I don't know what language BI is written in, but it has to have built in TLS/SSL support these days. Windows has a built in credential store. I'm...

I already generate my own Let's Encrypt wildcard cert, so I would be happy if BI just had it's own HTTPS service and would allow me to import my own cert. This is what I do for other services I run, ie Emby, Proxmox, etc. I know this maybe beyond a lot of BI users, but given the number of...

It would be nice if BI would integrate Let's Encrypt support. I already have a wildcard cert for my domain. It would be nice if there was an easy way for BI to use it as well. Ken could also look into what Plex did to get HTTPS working for their entire user base.

Just because they are using the same engine, doesn't necessarily mean they were implemented the same, or the same bugs are going to be tickled.

Switching to Chrome seems to have fixed the issue. Wonder why no one else has reported an issue?

Yipeee! There's an error message in the console log! it says http://<BI server>/<blah blah blah> Net:: OUT_OF_MEMORY Neither the server or the client should be out of memory. The server has 14GB of RAM and only 9GB is showing as used, and the client has 8GB and Edge is the only thing...

Sorry, I am using Edge :) MS Browser is IE in my brain :)

UI3 version 206, Blue Iris version: 5.5.6.11 I've had a new issue crop up in the last couple of days. Things have been working great for the last year or so. The only thing that changed as I got a new set of Windows updates thrown at me and a forced reboot. After that, UI3 will freeze on me...

A couple weeks back I updated BI and it appears the formatting of the camera windows has changed. The title bar seems thicker and the fonts are bolder. This has caused my window layout to change...The camera windows are now formatted smaller than they were before. This is annoying on my 55"...

When it happens, I have to restart the Bliue Iris service to get it working again.

Upgraded to 5.4.8.2 and my camera groups are broken under UI3 and the Android app. If I select a camera group (other than all cameras) under UI3 I just get the spinning circle. Under the Android app, the camera group montages are blank other than the all cameras montage. The groups work fine...

I get that same JSON error when I log in with an account that has admin privileges. If I use an account that has more restricted rights, I don't get that error.

If it doesn't re-encode the video, how does it save the overlay? Or isn't it?

How are you getting the date/time at the botton of the screen into the video feed? I asked that question yesterday and you never answered.

Here is a good basic article on surveilance and FPS. It basically shows that for the most common scenarios, anything above 10FPS, you start falling off fast in the cost/benefit ratio as you increase FPS. Frame Rate Guide for Video Surveillance

30FPS is actually pretty high....Do you need it that high? I'm running 20 cameras at 2 FPS each camera. 18 of those cameras are 4K, 2 are 1080P. With 6 processors cores roughly equiv to the 4 in your I5-2500K, I'm around 40% CPU load. Have you looked at the various Blue Iris tuning guides...

Are you sure your local port is correct?

I was having weird connection issues until I clicked on the "get IPs" button, even though the IPs where correct.

That seemed to do the trick, thank you!

Is it possible to do auto-login with UI3? I want to put a bookmark in the startup folder so a browser opens up right to a page when Windows starts up, but it's still pausing on the browser basic auth login box. I searched back through the 150 pages and it looks like it's possible, but couldn't...

Anyone else having issues with the Android app freezing/jumping when going above 4x playback speed? My IOS devices can go up to 256x with smooth playback so I know it's not my server or WiFi speed.
