Hi all, I have been having issues where every morning for the past several days my BI computer is not running and stopped running sometime overnight. It is stuck on a blue screen. A restart will fix the issue and everything works fine. I initially thought this was a windows update issue but I...

Each camera is across the VPN and goes directly to the Blue iris server in my main home.

Hello, I have a vacation home that has 7 cameras and currently we use Xfinity with a Unifi USG Pro VPN connection to our main home where the BI server is. My question is, is there a way, or a specific camera model that will only upload if motion is detected? We are trying to reduce the cost...

Hello, I have been running BI with the homeseer plugin for at least 3 years. I recently enrolled in sentry to try and cut down on false alerts. I did notice that since I went to sentry it is not triggering my homeseer system like I would like it to or at least not quick enough. Is it...

Has anyone ever setup up recording directly from blue iris to a network attached storage device? The day has come where I am running out of space (currently have 6TB). I currently have approximately 23 cameras running and am about to add on 8 more cameras. Thought process is I can do raid...

A VPN is for sure more secure than any standard user name authentication, so if you have that option I would recommend using it. My reason is strictly personal for running it at the router level. I like to keep everything restricted so based on user decides what IP's they have access to on the...

I would really recommend doing it at the router level, for me I don't open any ports to my server to keep it secure. You can run it on windows 10 pro, I don't believe the standard home version has it. Are you using Windows 10 pro? It's usually under (on my win 8 pro setup)...

Thank you! Got it working on 4.5.3.2

My BI machine just updated to 4.5.3.3 yesterday and I have several camera groups with certain users only having access to certain groups (shared family system, each user has access to his/her own homes cameras). After the update everyone can see all the camera groups regardless of restriction...
