    Blue Iris Updates - Official Thread

    I understand that one can encounter bugs on beta releases and obviously I can roll back to a release that doesn't have the issue. I'm just asking if anyone else has experienced the issue, and I would like to report it so that it can be addressed. That's why beta software exists, to allow people...

    Blue Iris Updates - Official Thread

    This version has introduced a bug to my Blue Iris setup. When I browse back in video for playback, I get black screens for every camera, see screenshot below. If I rollback to version 5.9.6.1 8/27/2024 or earlier the problem goes away. I have reproduced this behavior between versions several...

    Are you leaving the API Key blank? Mine is blank and it works without one. I just typed in a bogus one to see what happens and what error it would give, and it says "Error connecting to wunderground. Check your internet connection / station ID" in red.

    Also, I saw some one above in this thread mention that the station ID is case sensitive. It won't work in lowercase, you must use uppercase. I just tested, and I can confirm that is true, it must all be uppercase.

    No problem. Are you for sure using the latest version 1.6.0 and didn't grab an old copy from somewhere?

    It currently is working for me, and I haven't seen any issues for a long long time, literally years I think.

    Maybe @Tayschrenn is talking about this? Doesn't really make sense though, because we're more than 3 months past that date. Weather Feedback @Tayschrenn also started a thread of its own on this forum here: API connection down

    hikvision firefox "your browser is not supported"

    For anyone who might still be stuck accessing a camera, this worked for me on Windows 11. I couldn't get one camera I have to open with IE Tab, IE compatibility mode, or any browser I tried, but thankfully, this let me into the camera. https://www.itechtics.com/internet-explorer-windows-11/...

    Did you see this post? Odd Character Has Replaced Degree Symbol - Cumulus Support There might be two different places where they list that UTF-8 option?

    It really sounds like it has something to do with that from Cumulus.ini - Cumulus Wiki Might also be worth a read: NOAA Reports °C not displaying correctly - Cumulus Support

    If you can have CumulusMX output each variable into separate text files, like temperature.txt with just the value of temperature (like 70F) then it's pretty easy because that's pretty much how Blue Iris Tools outputs the Wunderground data, then you set the macros to reference the values in those...

    Only Wunderground is supported out of the box, and I've never heard of anyone tweaking it to make it work with another provider, but you can create add-ons. So it theoretically should be possible if you are able to write scripts to fetch data from a different provider (if it falls in line with...

    If you are on 1.6.0, then you should be fine as it has been the newest version since January of 2020. The "new version is available" popup thing has been a known issue. There isn't a newer version than 1.6.0 and hasn't been for a long time. Everyone that has been annoyed by that message coming...

    I haven't had any major problem either since 1.6.0 addressed the API change that wunderground made that broke Blue Iris Tools back in January of 2020. Double check that you are using 1.6.0 https://ipcamtalk.com/downloads/blue-iris-tools-weather-overlay-watchdog-more.66/download and you didn't...

    Thanks so much for the tip! Now that I know that, I was able to create as many macros as I needed! I did it directly in the registry.

    @Mike Is there any reason that the macros are limited to 9? I would like to be able to use a couple more than that, so wondering if there would be any way that you might be able to develop that in. Thanks, Aaron

    I'm not sure how the updates really work under the hood, never really paid attention.

    I agree. I closed BIT and did an update a few days ago, no issue. Today, another update came in with BIT running (watchdog enabled), and the update hung. Tried multiple times, and would not go through until I disabled the watchdogs. Did a screen video capture, check it out here:
