Yes, but you need to check the box "Use secure session keys and login page" in Blue Iris Settings > Web server > Advanced. This will disable basic auth and redirect you do the login page instead when necessary. That login page has the option to remember your credentials. Right-click the "log in automatically" checkbox to find a hidden setting to remove the auto login delay if you want.
ctrl + shift + i
should open it.@atmelton This is probably complaining about invalid JSON encoding. That has happened a number of times because Blue Iris does not use a proper JSON serialization library. If we can find out exactly what the problem was, we can tell Blue Iris support and he can fix it.
Try opening the browser's developer console and get the full error message out of the console.ctrl + shift + i
should open it.
@atmelton I'm glad clearing your cookies fixed it, because the cause of the failure is a mystery to me. The error message it was printing is nonsensical because your login clearly had just succeeded.
If you load any other web applications from the same host name (e.g. via a different port number), they can interfere with each other's cookies, local storage, etc.
Anyway I deleted your screenshot because your BI license key was in the login response.

Is there any way to use UI3 from an external pc that connects to its own vpn?
For example, I have a work laptop that has a mobile hotspot that I use to connect to the internet, and that the connects to the work VPN.
I use OpenVPN to get into BI on my network from an external non-work source. Can I still use OpenVPN if my work pc already connects to a vpn by default? Can I access my BI from this pc via UI3?
Thank you @bp2008. I would assume I just need a cert file on my work pc then? Would I need to download any OpenVPN software to the pc? (Sorry, not super well versed with vpn connections).Depends on your VPN configuration and network configuration, but it should be possible to connect to two VPNs at once and access resources on both networks.
