    Blue Iris reverted to demo following Windows update

    Had this same issue. Had to input the product key again and it appears all my settings stayed. Weird.

    Can only see footage in timeline from less than 24 hours ago

    Great info. I guess there really is no point to using the store folder, now that you mention that. I can't access those clips on the timeline, and I'd have to manually look through them using the folder system. I was under the assumption that "stored" compressed the files or helped manage...

    Can only see footage in timeline from less than 24 hours ago

    Ok. I think I got this figured out. I have a 1TB HDD in this machine. I record based on motion. I now have the "new" folder set to 300gb size, with no age limit on clips, and the "stored" folder set to 400gb with the same setting for limiting clip age. I'm sure I'll adjust the "new" folder...

    Can only see footage in timeline from less than 24 hours ago

    So the 10gigs option, I'm assuming. Just adjust that to whatever I want, and then when new clips hit that storage quota, the system will archive the old clips? I'm guessing the 31gb storage amount below my timeline accounts for archive folders too, which is why the size is different than the...

    Can only see footage in timeline from less than 24 hours ago

    Where is the option to allocate more storage? I don't really see a spot in the settings showing that 31gb is allocated with the ability to adjust. Also, when the clips hit that storage limit, are they archived?

    Hello, New to BI, but watched some tutorial videos and read a few things on the forum here. I've had BI up and running since last Thursday night. I went in and checked my system this morning and it seems I only have access to yesterday's footage beginning at 4pm. I've attached a picture of...

    NVR/PC solution for 25-30 ip cameras

    Hello, I'm pretty well versed with hikvision cameras and their NVR units. We have a few that were setup in offices and that I've done for people in their homes. I'm looking for a solution for 25-30 ip cameras...with room to expand if needed. We want to be able to hold more than 2 months of...

    What software are you using with your Empire cameras?

    This is correct. I connected my laptop and the ipcam to a switch with no other devices attached. I changed my computer ip to 192.168.1.50 since the camera was defaulted to 192.168.1.10. But I couldn't get into the camera. I was told by empire that I had to use the software, which seems odd.

    What software are you using with your Empire cameras?

    Just purchased some 2mp domes along with a 3mp vari-focal dome and bullet cam. Looking into using Sighthound, security spy or blue iris. Any recommendations? Looking for something that allows free iphone apps for remote viewing. Also, has anyone had any success changing ip addresses of the...
