Cloned the drive to another SSD ( smaller , but still with plenty of space) and noticed right away there is only 1 camera working and all other ones (10) are cycling the video: ON/OFF. Cameras ping fine so.... I wonder if this is...

    BI5 Upgrade

    :) I have it configured in pfSense but used it only on the PC . I liked the convenience of just using a browser shortcut on my phone's home page . This allowed me to quickly check all cameras , when needed, without having to connect through VPN ( not as smooth on the phone as on the PC). I...

    BI5 Upgrade

    Got it! Have been accessing BI on my android phone ( in browser), through Web UI3 which requires a port open/fwd on the router. A couple of days ago, while looking at the settings, I happened to notice a connection ( 1 sec only) I didn't recognize, to the BI machine... It was from...

    BI5 Upgrade

    Thanks fenderman! My BI4 support expired on Oct/Nov 2019. How long do I have to take advantage of the $29 extra support in order to upgrade to BI5 ?

    BI5 Upgrade

    Considering an upgrade from BI4 to BI5. Could not find a comparison of hardware requirements between the 2 versions? BI4 is running on an Elitedesk 800 G2 mini tower i5-6500 @ 3.20GHz, 16GB RAM, Win 10 Pro 64bit. Need to know if a hardware upgrade is recommended for BI5. Thanks in advance!

    BI settings for Lorex LH2116 DVR

    Unfortunately, even port 8888 doesn't work . Verified and using port 8888 in RTSP URL , does show the cam video, in VLC. BTW, I checked the model shown under Lorex Flir info and it is actually LHV2016-DFS3 . Tried selecting a different model in BI, but without luck Thanks!

    BI settings for Lorex LH2116 DVR

    Thanks for the clarification on the username! RTSP port 554 found in Lorex conection settings , along with RTSP format ( pic below). Is BI building the RTSP to match required format ? If not, how should the Path & params be changed/adjusted ? BTW, I've tested the RTSP URL without the port...

    BI settings for Lorex LH2116 DVR

    I am trying to view cameras (LBV2521-C) connected to a Lorex LH2116 DVR and having a hard time configuring BI. Learned from another post I might have to create a user name ( non-admin) for each cam and add each cam using the newly created accounts on the Lorex DVR. Created user BICAM1 and I am...
