    Blue Iris with Alexa?

    I've gotten BI to display on Echo Show. Done via the BI web interface and the silk browser on Echo SHow. Set up BI web access. Note the external IP address for BI, as well as username & password. On the Echo, make Silk your web browser (settings - device options - web) "Alexa, open silk app"...

    Meaning of "not required for retrigger"

    Forward or backward - I do not understand what the option does. Help documentation is no help. I've not see it mentioned in the (very good!) YouTubes on zones by Hometech.

    How do I get the screen above? When I enter the camera IP address I get a totally different interface, with none of the codec or frame rate info. I have an SV3C H.265 POE IP Camera. SV3C web site and utilities are worthless.

    ensure that the iframe interval in the camera matches the fps and that smart codec is off.

    I'm not sure what this means "ensure that the iframe interval in the camera matches the fps and that smart codec is off." iframe matches FPS? Smart codec? I don't see anything like that in either camera settings nor in blue iris. Blue iris seems to work well for me, except I miss the first...

    Same problem. SV3C camera. Recording starts late. Where do I change iframe and codec in Blueiris?
