Hi everyone,

Need your help! I was using Blue Iris with Nest Cams setup rtmps://stream-delta.dropcam.com/nexus/"cam ID" for couple months until it was dropped on 8, Mar,17; No Signal suddenly. Have you guys experienced the same thing as me? Any update? Thansk!

The Nest Cams I have can still be viewing from app as well http link; but not Blue Iris anymore.

Thanks,

i seem to have the same problem. cams where running perfect until I shut down my blue iris server for some maintenance(installed smart switches). and after I booted it up and saw an update, foolish me just went ahead and updated it (since previous updates are perfect).. just my luck.

my non-Nest outdoor cams seem to be affected as well.

I will try to go back to previous working version and see what happens.

Can you advise where can download for the previous version of BI? I would like to try it too. Recently It seems got updated too then dropped!
Not sure were caused by BI update or Nest ever changed the code.

You can search the forum..some users post updates to drop box..in the future, simply install any updates from the website that way you have the files to restore..

After I changed to 4.4.7.4 then I did update again to he most update version 4.5.1.6 so far so good; must be glitch. You can download the 4.4.7.4 from the forum; save the update in case needing to rollback; cheers!

Another option is to sell the Nestcams and get some good Dahua cameras.

already had that in mind but i am not keen on loosing money nor spending time to haggle getting these cameras sold.... i will just have to leave with them i guess in the next 5 years... :(

reverting back to 4.5.1.3 and update to 4.5.1.6 fixed the problem but was shortlived.... had to revert back to 4.5.1.3 and will stay put for now...
