    Where is this Dahua / BI Alert coming from?

    No clues based on the yellow box, or do I need to post screenshots of all the relevant settings pages?

    Where is this Dahua / BI Alert coming from?

    I've had several goes at getting reliable triggering and alerts, and after throwing many noob hours at it I have my BI / CodeProject / Pushover combination working as I want. Well, except for the triggers pictured below, which I can't understand how they are getting past the "Confirm the alert...

    Best Dash Camera 2024

    Thank you, I appreciate that doing these things takes time away from the multitude of other tasks we need and want to do. I'm pretty happy about being able to pull plates in these conditions. I'd probably have to run CPL as it's predominantly very bright here in Perth, so having those in the...

    Best Dash Camera 2024

    How are you all finding the higher-end Viofo rear cameras at night? Aside from mild concerns about heat tolerance, the performance of the rear cam in low light is the only thing making me consider alternatives. If anyone has time to post a rear vid while moving, extracting some plate-capture...

    5442-ZE Virtually Zero Network Connectivity

    I have a 5442-ZE which quickly went from needing a Blue Iris "restart camera" operation very rarely, to pretty much never connecting to the network. I can bring up the web-GUI sometimes, but rarely get past the login. So far I have: used a different camera on the building wiring, and it is...

    5442TM-ASE Masking of SMD Area

    My IVS game is so bad... I'm the king of false triggers. I might have to search out some 101 / ELI5 on getting it to work properly, because SMD is currently doing miles better than my IVS efforts.

    5442TM-ASE Masking of SMD Area

    Ahhhh righty-o.. I didn't think that was going to be global. Many thanks mate.

    5442TM-ASE Masking of SMD Area

    I've poked around the camera interface, and can't see any way to mask an area from being included in Smart Motion Detection. Is this not possible, or not intuitive... or am I an idiot for missing it? Cheers guys.

    I7-8700k still the best budget friendly option?

    There are some extremely good processor comparison resources around. One is on the Intel website, and there are numerous other independent ones. I didn't bookmark them, but it didn't take heaps of searching to find stuff either. I think one was simply CPU Benchmark.

    Send Pushover notifications with pictures and hyperlinks

    Would you take a whitespace... exactly where you suggested though! I must have slipped it in there while replacing deletions made to simplify the string while fault-finding other aspects. Maybe I'll have to accept using my BI computer on websites. I made this task a lot harder by not being able...

    Send Pushover notifications with pictures and hyperlinks

    I've just been proving how tech-tarded I'm becoming by trying to get this working. I've got to the point where I'm getting a notification with a snapshot and link to UI3, but this takes me to a live view of all cams... not a clip of the alert event. I doubt this is correct given the complexity...

    Any Gotchas or General Advice if Considering HA on My Blue Iris Winbox

    I have now got my Blue Iris system running in a stable manner, and was thinking I could get HASS running alongside it. Is this a bad idea... particularly with respect to reducing the security of the Blue Iris system? Cheers! Steve

    Less Than Expected Days of Storage

    I'm getting far less days of storage than expected from 8 cams onto a 14TB drive. I've attached a photo of my storage settings, which I acknowledge I could be misinterpreting. Currently I have footage back to 29 October, with the BI status bar reporting "Clips: 521 items, 1.58T / 11.73T"...
