I had no success with OneDrive and now IDrive for cloud upload of large amounts of video data. OneDrive crashed very often, and IDrive could not keep up with the modest amount of data being stored (only about 50GB/day). Has anyone had any luck doing realtime cloud backup of surveillance video...

Thanks for the replies. I've already invested lots of money is good quality traditional smoke detectors with lifetime batteries. There are also benefits with integrating with Blue Iris (less config and IT headaches, etc.) Maybe if I can get some frequency filtering on my microphone feed, I...

Kevern, can you post a higher-res version of the integration diagram JPG? I'm having trouble reading the text. Also, the video links seem to be broken. Can you repost? Thanks, -R

This Kidde product looks pretty good, but I'm wondering if BI can do the same job? http://remotelync.kidde.com/monitor/ I am using a sensitive microphone attached to my BI server. So far, I have too many audio alerts. I've tried various combinations of Gain and Sensitivity. If I make it...

Would you recommend that for all camera types, not just this Zmodo?

What do they cost, and could you recommend a seller?

The foscam c1 paper specs say a wider angle, 115 degrees vs 79 degrees, and a cheaper price which are attractive. What sort of protocol does Blue Iris use to get the feed on the hikvision 2432? Is it RTSP? Also, does the hikvision stay connected, and is it more solid with Blue Iris?

I'm looking for Blue Iris compatible, high value, low cost, Ethernet wired, indoor, non-PTC, wide angle, H.264, 720p, stable security cams. The new Foscam C1 looks good on paper for $60-$70, but they are backordered, and I've not read of anyone using them with Blue Iris. Anyone have any good...

When I start BI via BlueIris.exe, either interactively or via task scheduler, the first attempt to start BI exits immediately without errors or any UI appearing. On the second startup try, it works normally. This flip flop happens every single time. I am running Win7 logged on as an admin...

I have 3 of these Zmodos, 2 wired Ethernet and 1 WiFi. Same latest firmware on all 3. I also periodically get the No Signal problem on the 720p channel over BI/RTSP. Seems to happen in fits once in a while. No Ethernet or Wifi signal issues during these No Signal events. No routers involved...

Thanks for the reply. I'm not a fan of the combine & cut every 2 minutes option because of the large number of files and the difficulty in locating the activity I'm looking for. The option to use a 2nd cloned camera feed doesn't achieve my goal of getting all of the continuous video uploaded...

This is my first post. I did read the help file and searched this forum for the answer, but did not find it. My apologies if I missed it. I am trying to do continuous recording and cut the clip at the end of the break time for the motion trigger (or some specified number of seconds after the...
