    Blue Iris Tools - Weather Overlay, Watchdog & more!

    You've got something else going on there. It doesn't need an API key. I have two different instances of Blue Iris Tools running on two different computers in two different parts of the country and I logged in and checked both just now, and neither has an API and both update fine. I even...

    Setting up NetTime Time Sync Tool on Windows 10

    Have you tried switching the time zone to something like Pacific time, saving it, and seeing if it updates properly, and then when it has been verified that it is correctly showing Pacific time, setting it back to Eastern time and saving again? Also, I assume that you have verified that the...

    getting PTZ to work with Hik PTZ (thru UI3)?

    Well something finally fixed the issue. I did a full factory reset on the camera, then I setup the Admin user (when initializing the camera) and I setup an ONVIF user. Then in Blue Iris when adding the camera, I left the defaults of Make: Generic/ONVIF with the Model: *RTSP...

    getting PTZ to work with Hik PTZ (thru UI3)?

    I changed the admin password when I had to initialize the camera. I know that the admin password is correct because it allows me to log into the camera's web interface. I also originally created an ONVIF user and gave it administrative rights. However, I've never tried to logging to the...

    getting PTZ to work with Hik PTZ (thru UI3)?

    yes I did, but the first part of the information that is returned showed a line that said "Bad Response" so that concerned me a bit. I also logged directly into the camera to make sure I hadn't mistyped the username or password. I think I'm going to try a full reset and then re-add it back...

    getting PTZ to work with Hik PTZ (thru UI3)?

    Yes, I did. This is what the Find/Inspect shows: Opening 192.168.9.20 port 80... HTTP Get / request... OK ONVIF GetSystemDateAndTime 2024-06-27T20:06:12.000Z Requesting device information... Bad response GetCapabilities... Querying services Has Search services: /onvif/SearchRecording Has...

    getting PTZ to work with Hik PTZ (thru UI3)?

    So I tried using the ONVIF (OXML) protocol, the Hikvision DS-2DE/2DF-AE/7208 protocol, and the Hikvision/Abus protocol and none of them worked for PTZ control through UI3. Under the BI camera VIDEO tab, I also tried logging into the camera using both the ADMIN user as well as an ONVIF user to...

    getting PTZ to work with Hik PTZ (thru UI3)?

    I am trying to get the PTZ control to work using the UI3 web interface for a Hikvision PTZ camera model DS-2DE2A404IW-DE3. If I open the camera's Hikvision web interface then the PTZ controls work fine. But when I try to use the PTZ controls through the UI3 web interface nothing happens. I...

    Blue Iris UI3

    I haven't changed anything on my setup, as far as I can remember in the last 6 months but just in the last couple of months, I've noticed that about half the time when I try to log into the UI3 web interface using Chrome on Android, that it prompts me for a username and password even though I've...

    Blue Iris UI3

    @bp2008 as always, thank you for that suggestion (to manually update UI3). That worked fine to get that functionality. I vaguely thought about doing that, but since my BI version is more than a year old, I figured it probably wouldn't work and I didn't want to mess anything up.

    Blue Iris UI3

    I tried to add this "change group button" override script to UI3 (it is the only override script I have) and I cannot get it to work. I've tried multiple browsers and a reboot. The BI version I'm running is 5.6.1.3 and the ui_version is 223. Is the reason it won't work is because my version...

    Blue Iris UI3

    You could stream it to YouTube and then make that YT channel unlisted so that only people you send the link to could access it. If you're asking whether it is possible to share a single camera on your LAN to any user then you could make a camera group from one camera and then give the anonymous...

    Blue Iris UI3

    I vaguely remember that UI3 had a "night mode" option that would make the whole screen basically red and black so that you could view it on a TV or other large screen without affecting your night vision. Now I can't seem to find that option or any forum thread with that info. Any help would be...

    NetTime running and responding (per the log), but time is not updating on the camera.

    I also have a dual NIC Blue Iris computer and I checked my NetTime log and it wasn't showing my cameras' times were being updated either. I had already setup rules for allowing NetTime through the Public and Private firewall and another rule to allow UDP port 123 traffic through but it still...

    Blue Iris Tools - Weather Overlay, Watchdog & more!

    BIT cannot be run natively as a service. However, you can just select the option to Start when Windows Boots under Program Options. That is how I have it set and I imagine most folks here use it. I don't run the BI console and instead run BI as a service too, and BIT loads fine when the...
