    Blue Iris Baby monitoring - Please share the best settings?

    Thanks AJ, my hiccup with Pushover is the disjointed experience of clicking on the notification and then being able to view the video... What will it pull up? The BI app takes me straight to the clip, from the installed app.

    Blue Iris Baby monitoring - Please share the best settings?

    Makes sense, AJ, but still not ideal haha! Literally everything else meets my needs. Damn Entrust and their certificates LOL! I wonder if Ken can give us a standalone install for this fix. Even if it's paid, it's gotta be subset of the cost. So many Pushover recommendations that it seems I...

    Blue Iris Baby monitoring - Please share the best settings?

    I saw the BI sub Reddit and it seems they have fixed the issue with the latest server update? However, this means people like me who don't have active subscription are basically stuck, huh?

    Blue Iris Baby monitoring - Please share the best settings?

    I see, you're only monitoring iOS? Guess no issues reported for Android and people like me with no active subs are SOL, I guess? Kinda unfair... It broke out of nowhere with zero settings changed!

    Blue Iris Baby monitoring - Please share the best settings?

    Haha thanks pushover does seem a bit complicated to set up, but also that cost is something I don't wanna do when I'll need multiple devices and paid for BI already. Did BI support ever respond to you or someone else? The push notifications have been gone over a week now, I think... It's kinda...

    Blue Iris Baby monitoring - Please share the best settings?

    I agree, that would be great, I'll submit a request. Though, I don't think they'll listen to me since I don't have an active subscription with them. Same thing happens to me. Only way to get it back is logging into the BI interface. I wonder if you your HTTP interface can trigger the privacy...

    Blue Iris Baby monitoring - Please share the best settings?

    Thank you for your quick response. Some follow up questions for you or folks who can help: 1. I think the background audio feature did/does work, the way you explained. Thank you. Since it's a global setting, which audio does it play in the background? Last camera viewed? 2. I noticed there...

    Blue Iris Baby monitoring - Please share the best settings?

    Another day, and another rescuing response from my buddy @wittaj! Thanks bud! As long the push notifications issue is something from the BI side and is known, I'm relieved and will look forward to it being resolved, one day magically? In the meanwhile, can you educate me on the pushover app...

    Blue Iris Baby monitoring - Please share the best settings?

    Hello All, I'm a BI user for a few years. Thanks to my friend @wittaj, I set it up well a few years ago with DeepStack and have basically forgotten about it, cause if it ain't broke, why fix it? I have BI 5.4.6.3 and in our home we use the Android mobile app. Recently, we fired our baby...

    Powerline Adapters with PoE?

    I'll keep you guys posted when I get the adapter by Saturday. A side question while I wait... This outdoor outlet I got... If I call an electrician to use that to give me a ceiling outlet in my patio, do you guys know if it will be the same "circuit" for the PLA to work still?

    Powerline Adapters with PoE?

    Thank you. What is UTP cabling? Can you paste some product links as examples of the options you laid out so I can visualize how all these products could work for my needs? One off topic question. I ordered a Powerline adapter with built in PoE to try my luck. Problem is, the outlet is an...

    Powerline Adapters with PoE?

    Right... But like you said... The cost looks prohibitive... I wonder if the Lorex could be plugged in too?

    Powerline Adapters with PoE?

    Hi Tony, thanks for your response. I didn't know most Powerlines were not PoE... Yes I have both Ip2m-841B and V3. I believe both are 5v. But those work well enough for me on Wi-Fi. I was needing a Powerline in this case for a Lorex PoE. Specifically, the E891AB... Seems like that too could be...

    Powerline Adapters with PoE?

    Hi Friends, Looking for verified Powerline adapter recommendations you guys may have that can provide PoE to an IP cam on the receiving side (not the one going to the switch)? Preferably if you have one that also comes with a built in outlet, it would be a bonus! I'm looking for verified...

    Android 10-gif notifications for Push Notifications on 5.4.6.3

    As far I understood, BI has this feature working only on iOS and for Android, I believe they cite a Google or OS limitation. I could be wrong though and would gladly accept a working solution! Arlo or Nest (forget which one) had this successfully on my Android device... :headbang:

    Does anyone know how to Factory Reset these Lorex E891AB cameras?

    Hello Friends, Posting a solution to this in case someone goes through this in the future. So I heard back from the vendor I bought from and spent a half hour on the phone with Lorex support. There are 2 methods to reset: 1. See the attached screen shot for directions. Shout out to my friend...

    Does anyone know how to Factory Reset these Lorex E891AB cameras?

    That looks promising, @wittaj, looks very similar to what @EMPIRETECANDY highlighted... I can try tomorrow boys and let you know... @EMPIRETECANDY do I just hold the button or is it connect to Ethernet, then hold the button, then do something?

    Does anyone know how to Factory Reset these Lorex E891AB cameras?

    Thank you Andy, there is no SD card slot on these. I wrote an email to Lorex support, but I doubt they'd help me, cause they'll say I didn't buy from their store. They also have a tech support number I'll try to call and see if they help. In the meanwhile, if you have any other ideas or find...

    Does anyone know how to Factory Reset these Lorex E891AB cameras?

    Hi Guys, Picked up some pre-owned Lorex E891AB cameras. Unfortunately, they did not come factory reset and I don't see a physical button to reset them to access the admin console. Does anyone know how to Factory Reset them physically before I attempt to return? Here's the help link that...

    Wi-Fi network for BI with no internet?

    I think so bud. Can you share your router settings and cables and ports config on how you laid it out? Separate topic, why are you using Tiny Cam over the BI app, are there benefits to it?

    Wi-Fi network for BI with no internet?

    Thanks @wittaj and @TonyR! Happy new year as well guys! Couple of follow up questions guys: 1. Which ports do I connect from the PoE switch to the spare router? (not WAN, but a port 1, 2 or etc?) 2. Since DHCP is off... Can I create wireless APs on this spare router to get range needed...

    Wi-Fi network for BI with no internet?

    Hi Friends, I've recently started adding some wireless ancillary cameras to my BI set up and was wondering if there was a way I could create a separate network for these with no internet access using the BI camera IP range and subnet? Here's my set up: - BI machine NIC 1 - Has internet...
