    How to turn off the "Pop" sound that's made when a remote connection occurs?

    Each time my home automation system pulls up a video stream from Blue Iris, the host computer makes a "Pop" sound. It's rather annoying and I don't want to have to disable all audio on that computer. Is there a setting to disable it in BI?

    BI won't use all my available hard drive space.

    I have the latest BI installed on a Win10 machine. I have an SSD for the OS and dedicated 4Tb drive for storing video. I would like it to use the entire 4Tb before overwriting old files. Whenever I think I've changed the settings correctly, I go back in and see that it's only recording 20Gb to...

    Best ready-to-go Blue Iris Computers / setups

    I picked up an i5-4670, 8Gb ram (up to 32Gb) computer from eBay for $204, added a refurb 4Tb WD Purple hard drive for $99, and a 64Gb SSD I already had sitting around and it rocks Blue Iris very nicely. I am used to building PCs but this was significantly cheaper than rolling my own.

    Need help understanding storage settings

    Sounds like you may want to just invest in a larger hard drive. I picked up a 4b WD Purple for $99 and I have no issues with running out of space.

    Lost a clip, any chance to recover it?

    Very strange. I had everything up and running yesterday afternoon but the clips currently in my "new" folder don't start until 4:28am today. Since BI was defaulted to store only 30Gb, does it start overwriting those earlier files as soon as the limit is reached?

    Where to get FW 5.1.6?

    Hey guys- I stupidly updated to 5.3 on my Chinese stickered 5.2 2032s. Another post suggested downgrading to 5.1.6 English version. I can't find a working link to get that file. Anyone have a copy stashed away or a link to it? Thanks.

    Lost a clip, any chance to recover it?

    I just installed Blue Iris and some new cams for the first time right before leaving town for a trip. I didn't realize that the default is to record only 30gb and then start deleting the files, (have a 4TB drive, and assumed it would fill it before deleting). The first night in action I had a...

    Another confused firmware dumbass :(

    My sticker does say 5.2. Do you have a link to the 5.1.6 firmware I need? All the links I found through Google have been abandoned. Thanks!

    Another confused firmware dumbass :(

    Yes, I can see them in SADP and change their IP address, I can see them IVMS-4200, but I can't import them, and I see them in my list of connected devices on my LAN. I can even stream the video with Blue Iris. When I try to visit the camera webpage I get this message: "Access Error: 404 --...
