Blue Iris UI3

Anyone have success using the current Brave Browser and UI3?
I've been using an older version of brave till yesterday and it worked very well with UI3, was forced to update brave and now UI3 won't load.

"This site can't be reached"
ERR_ADDRESS_UNREACHABLE

Anyone run into this problem and find a solution.
I'm on a MAC, can still access UI3 using safari but it doesn't work nearly as well as it did using brave, when it worked.

UI3 version 266, Blue Iris version: 5.8.5.3

current version of Brave - 1.78.102
I use Brave. I can access UI3 just fine on all my update-to-date BI installations.

You are trying to access it all on the same subnet (LAN), right? You aren't trying to access it from over the internet?
 
Yes access from same local network.

Seems my son got his to work, he had another issue over the weekend that required what he called a "deep cleaning" of his computer - cache, browser history, whatever else that entails.
I didn't do mine yet because I need to get some passwords under control 1st, mainly email. Hopefully thats the cure...

Found it and in the most obvious place.

Mac OS, privacy, allow local access got turned off for brave. So simple yet completely overlooked.
It wouldn't surprise me if an update set it (as well as other stuff) back to a default state from whatever state YOU had set it.
Updates to my Android Moto phone do it frequently, especially with app notifications....VERY annoying. :mad:
 
@bp2008 - is it possible to add a customizable url button in ui3? Maybe even in full screen mode?

I am not very artistic and I am using HomeSeer’s new feature of Dashboards. I would like to have my main HomeSeer page set up so that I can select ui3 to view the cameras and then select HS in a url in ui3 to return to HomeSeer.

Thanks for thinking about it.
 
@JNDATHP Sounds like fun. UI3-294 will have new capabilities via UI Settings > Top Bar allowing you to change the system name button behavior to "Follow a Link", and selecting that will allow you to enter a link address on the next line.

You'll also be able to customize the text of the system name button without actually needing to rename your BI system.

If you need your settings to be duplicated across multiple devices, you can do that with a ui3-local-overrides.js file, documented here: UI3 Help
 
Is there Any way to move the status bar at the bottom which has the volume controls, minimise/maximise etc, or make it accessible in a different "tablet friendly" way? I have an issue where when using UI3 on a tablet, whenever I touch the bottom of the screen the android menu bar appears on top, and I can't access the status bar.

Thanks
 
I'm not sure what "the status bar" is.

You can probably change your android settings to always show the bottom button bar so it doesn't appear and overlap with things.

UI3's settings has a number of settings that may be helpful: "Preferred UI Scale"; if you set this to "Large" then many of UI3's UI elements will grow larger. "Playback Controls: Extra Padding", this makes playback controls buttons bigger. "Playback Controls: Always Visible" also may be helpful if it keeps you from needing to touch the screen an extra time to make UI3's buttons appear.
 
Is there a way to single step a playback in UI3?
 
< and > hotkeys. Or in UI Settings you can enable playback controls buttons for skipping one frame ahead or back.
Thanks. For all the time I've wasted trying to figure this out, I should have asked a long time ago.
