    IPC-T54IR-AS-S3 Day/Night Switch

    Big Red Fish - it is just another way to make something work..... Have not tried your scenario. It is simpler and a lot easier to implement. For Standard vs DST there would have to be a date field as the time change would only occur twice per year. If using sunrise/set times plus an offset...

    IPC-T54IR-AS-S3 Day/Night Switch

    Same DST issue on this end. It appears that one has to enter the current start and end times once per year to automatically change the Dahua cameras from standard to daylight time. For a large number of cameras it becomes a PITA project. Giving this a try for November 2025, but so far it has...

    Wyze v3 cameras with Blue Iris via RTSP

    Update The workflow is to first setup the Wyze cam using your cell or tablet using the Wyze cam android app. If the cell/tablet is not 64 bit, then use Android Studio for a virtual android phone. This will allow for full configuration of the cam as if using a real cell. Once setup then Blue...

    Wyze v3 cameras with Blue Iris via RTSP

    Blue Stacks response to issue: "Kindly note that the support for LAN bridging is yet to be added to BlueStacks which is required for the Wyze app (or any other app), to connect with the other devices over the local network. However, our concerned teams are already aware of this, and you may...

    Hourly gaps in recording

    A most interesting and useful solution that works. Changed those two problem cameras from 4 Gigs to 6 Gigs and the video dead spot vanished. Thanks for the fix......

    Hourly gaps in recording

    Have the same BI issue with 2 out of 28 Dahua cameras both on BI and UI3. The other 26 do not have this video void issue. BI version 5.9.9.59 x64 Camera 1 - 5849T1-ASE Blank space at 4:56:05 PM to 4:56:35 PM Repeats each hour at the same time with the same 30 second blank. Camera 2 - 5242 H...

    can I trigger IVS Rule via Http Command ?

    Also use IVS with very few false triggers, but have camera smart motion detection turned off. No flies, spiders, falling leaves or shadow false triggers on BI. In the BI help file, around page 280, there are some Admin Commands that could be of use. However, with Hubitat one could use the...

    Question About BI in different locations (how to view in different locations)

    The IP address is listed in BI. Gear Icon (top left) Then choose Web Server. The IP address is listed under Local Internal (LAN) address. It will most likely be the same IP for the Remote External (WAN/Internet) address. To use UI3 use the address as listed including the port, most likely...

    How do I renew and upgrade blue Iris since they've moved payment provider?

    Thanks for the update..... Would assume that the old Digital River provider did not forward any auto renew records to the new payment gateway firm. Thus if DR was set for auto renew that is now a dead issue. i.e. a new auto renew will be required for the new payment gateway firm.

    How do I renew and upgrade blue Iris since they've moved payment provider?

    Is the price listed in the column at BASIC (EXTENDED FOR $34.95 /YR) not correct? Or is the price listed in the blue box Extended maintenance ($39.95/single year) not correct. Guess the question is what is the correct price????

    Newbie with the most basic installation set-up questions

    Also use the Kline tool but a different model number (VDV226-011) which works well. Have not used the pass through type of RJ-45 connectors. Be sure to use T-568B as the wiring guide. And as an extra, crimp three times to make sure it is making a good connection. The other device that...
