    Dual NIC setup on your Blue Iris Machine

    It is best to draw out a network diagram as that usually shows the issue. What are the IP addresses of your NIC with internet and NIC without internet, along with the IP address of each camera? You can list the private LAN IP addresses as it does not tell anyone anything - they are the same as...

    Thanks for that, I erred on side of caution.

    Two networks, one modem

    Hello everyone! My question is simple but I'm not sure if the answer is simple. I have an NVR and would like to give it only access to internet time-servers for chron-accuracy, and occasional operating system updates as I would manually allow (I would like to make it as hack-proof as...

    SD4A425DB-HNY Day/Night Switch

    This API call has only been tested on the Web 5 Dahua camera GUI for the SD5A425XA PTZ and HFW5442E-Z4E-S3. One way to test the code is to run on a browser that is on the same network or subnet that the cameras are on. Usually your BI computer. One quick test is to enter the following into...

    Yes. I fully understand your point of view now.

    New Reolink Wired POE Doorbell Cam ?

    Myself, I only get Rich Notifications on our phones through Home Assistant and BI. No 2-way talk for me. Sorry I can't help with App since I do not use ReoLink's phone App. I would assume if the Camera does not have access to the Internet their App would not be able to communicate to it. If...

    Opinions on Cloud based video surveillance systems ?

    thats depends your the system. Like Bosch, Netamo, Unifi,.. will still take local recordings and, "only" the cloud management and notifications are gone. Hacking is of course a possible danger. But it doesn't need the worst scenarios, mistakes and shit just happen. Up to now the manufacturers...

    Opinions on Cloud based video surveillance systems ?

    Not the same at all.... If your internet connection or the actual cloud server goes down in a "cloud based" CCTV system, everything stops. There is no live footage being recorded/archived, no way to review previously archived footage (either while on the locally network or remotely), and no...

    How to see Amcrest baby cams from computer (like Smart Home app)

    BTW, most all cams with "Smart Home" or "Smart Camera"in their name can be a PITA but if you're patient and follow these steps you should be able to get this particular Amcrest to stream to Blue Iris: How To Setup a Camera In Blue Iris with RTSP Support (ASH21)

    How to see Amcrest baby cams from computer (like Smart Home app)

    Thank Tony I will give BI a try. Only issue is my Smart Home App doesn't show the passwords for the cams so I will have to reset them unless there is some password hack.

    Error connecting Reolink RLC-810a to Blue Iris

    Thank you for the information. The reason I have a Reolink is that I thought I saw them recommended on this site. I am more than willing to send it back and get something else. I have to have a PoE camera, preferably a bullet, that I can connect via a powerline adapter; cannot run ethernet and...

    What causes Analog camera delay and ghosting?

    Yes, Im seeing that now. But the seller/listing did not tell me that (years ago when I was shopping for XVRs). And I talked to Dahua support recently. They said that I have to use Dahua cameras to use AI detection for IP cams. But again, they didnt disclose that. (It sounds like theyre using...

    Dahua day/night switch utility - DahuaSunriseSunset

    If you are using an older cameras with Web 4 then the BI Windows sunrise/set utility works fine. However, for the newer Web 5 cameras it will not function. One work around for Web 5 is to use the PTZ BI hack or use a home automation system to process the HTTP API GET (SET) codes for camera...

    Blue Iris - Web Site (Preview Cameras blurry)

    To see what impact it would have, I have implemented the suggestions. Had to "hack" the Ubiquiti G3's to get a 1:1 key. Unfortunately little impact on system usage. I think it cut down memory usage by about 10% (or it could be because of the restart after update) "idle" CPU usage has actually...

    Can Nest Hub Max camera be accessed from BI?

    Nest is a proprietary system designed to work within the Google Nest universe. It is not ONVIF compliant. Generally cloud-based devices are proprietary and why they are generally avoided here. There is probably some hack somewhere, but it would probably result in many drop-outs and not be...

    Serial Connection to Module

    Hello, I see that you have activated the P/T unit control, hence my question. I have the same camera, but after connecting the P/T unit (Videotec Ullise) with the Pelco-D protocol set to pin 3 and pin 4 of the camera and trying to control it, nothing happens. The P/T unit is certainly...

    And like I said I do not store my credit card anywhere on line. If I buy something on Amazon, I key in the credit card and after I purchase, I remove the credit card. Maybe it is overkill and paranoia but I would rather take the few extra moments to key that info in than let it be stored...

    I would trust Bitwarden with my credit card information more than any online shopping site (Amazon, etc). If security is really a concern, you can host your own password manager server. I know Bitwarden is set up to allow this and there are probably others out there as well. This means there...

    I activated a new citi card just this morning, so this thread doesn't give me a warm fuzzy feeling! The new card has done away with the signature line. The last hack I had was about 10 years ago and my best guess is that it was compromised when a restaurant waiter walked off with it for a few...

    Dahua day/night switch utility - DahuaSunriseSunset

    You probably have an extra space or something because the API works. The first thing to do is to try the command in the CMD and confirm you have it correct. Once it switches there then put it into the PTZ hack. In the past, most of the cameras all that the built-in function does is switch it...

    Dahua day/night switch utility - DahuaSunriseSunset

    I tried the PTZ hack but it didn't work. Maybe I need to revisit it. It's a pity we either don't have an app or Dahua don't integrate something into the camera to switch it over. One thing I have found with set time switchovers is if you get a stormy dark day, it switches too late. Set it for...

    Dahua day/night switch utility - DahuaSunriseSunset

    @bp2008 hasn't maintained the utility in a long time and last mention was he wasn't going to update it since we now have the PTZ preset "hack" that can be used to call API, I suspect that is what he would do.

    Loryta SD49225XA-HNR Trigger Happy

    I thought i was imagining this but after reading your last post that must be what's happened to me in the past too. Like you said, how is it possible for BI to change a camera setting? I have all the motion settings set to zero squares, low sensitivity, etc.

    Loryta SD49225XA-HNR Trigger Happy

    Since you are using BI, many of us have found that it turns on motion detection in this particular camera (even though it shouldn't be able to). As a hack, many of us turn the sensitivity to the least sensitive and make the zone one block in corner and set the schedule to a very short period...

    How to back up motion detection events to a cloud?

    I know it's probably not optimal but these are all outdoor cameras - what are they gonna do (even if they hack the cameras) - watch me go to work :lol: All other options (blue iris, ftp...) seem so complicated though. What would you suggest (as I said - even if its not a perfect solution)?
