-You call it an "idiotic parsing of words" I call it correctness. Saying something was done in a lazy manner does *not* call that person lazy. You can post in font size 75 all day long it doesn't make you any more correct.
-A child can pick up a remote and find the rewind button. It sure as heck won't have a minus sign on it. It's not even remotely intuitive to have the user "play" the video with a negative multiplier.
-You posted misleading information to my initial question. It's obvious that you post from a skew that this software is the best thing since sliced bread. It's also obvious to anyone reading this thread. IMHO that achieves a correct unbiased answer with facts, if people care to sift through all your ranting to find it.
-I'm not out any money, I will use BI and probably like it just fine. Just don't act like the guy you paid $60 is doing you a favor to maintain the app you purchased.
-Making suggestions does not make any implication of being "better" than anyone. They are just that, suggestions.
-You know far more about the app than I do and I would welcome your help if it didn't come with so much baggage and pompous disregard for anyone doing anything different from you. It appears there's a lot of intricacies to this app that require "more than five minutes" as you say to learn. That's disappointing. My intended use of this app was to monitor my home not spend hours pouring over settings (which is why I ask questions on this forum instead of doing just that). An open mind to various uses of a piece of software helps the developer improve their product (which is why I emailed them/him already).
-I am a software developer and will tend to look at software I use with a critical eye. No need for you to take that as a personal attack on the shrine that is your BI setup.
You are looking at the playback screen, you see a plus and minus sign, you dont try them? You couldn't figure it out. SAD.
Blue iris is not intended for children. It requires some common sense and a brain.
My answer was not misleading. Go back and read it. Never said ANYTHING about an instant replay. Said you can easily pull up an alert.
This software IS the best thing since sliced bread. There is nothing close to this at this price point. You obviously have ZERO experience with vms.
He IS doing you a favor by adding NEW features. He has no obligation to. He as been doing this despite the fact that blue iris has been out for almost two years.
Let me school you on industry standards. Exacq, 90 days for 50 dollars per camera license. 1 year for 100 PER CAMERA license. Please tell me what other software package provides this level of updates and support!!!
You want all these functions built in but dont want to spend more than five minuets to learn it? What is wrong with you?
You will have to learn ANY vms and ANY app. You seem lazy.
I would never touch anything you develop...its likely a disaster.
All you need to do is open the last alert then use the scroll bar or fast forward and youll see anything the alert did not catch....you are over complicating it...
Once again, go find another package that comes close to this level of customization at this price point.
