    trouble finding firmware for Hik cube camera

    I checked several of the versions of firmware from that site and read the release notes and none of them mention my camera model. No Hikvision Cubes listed and none that even start with DS-2CD2XX3. So I don't think any of those are the correct ones for my camera. Can you please elaborate...

    trouble finding firmware for Hik cube camera

    OK, I'm not sure why this didn't come up before but on my third attempt, I found the firmware here: DS-2CD2443G0-I(W) However, it only shows the most recent version. Where are the older firmware versions located? I'm not sure why this particular camera has been so difficult to find. Any...

    trouble finding firmware for Hik cube camera

    I purchased a Hikvision 4MP cube camera from Amazon this year and from the web interface it shows to be a DS-2CD2443G0-IW model but I can't find any firmware anywhere that shows it will work with this model. It's currently running version V5.5.80 build 180911 of firmware. I've loaded the...

    Blue Iris Update Helper (BiUpdateHelper)

    OK, stupid question. If I still use Blue Iris v4 (so no more BI updates) but want to use the other features of UpdateHelper, should I install the new v1.7?

    Blue Iris Tools - Weather Overlay, Watchdog & more!

    Hey Mike, is there a way to round the temperature, humidity, and dewpoint to the nearest whole number? I looked at the addons feature of BITools but couldn't get it to work. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

    Blue Iris UI3

    Is this a UI3 issue or a Blue Iris issue? This is happening on Firefox on an iphone. Works fine on Android and on a computer using Chrome.

    resetting a Hik IP camera to DHCP when removing from Hik NVR?

    I am trying to remove the IP cameras from a Hikvision NVR (model DS-7608NI-E2/8P) so that they can be used in a new Blue Iris system. The problem is, when I remove the cameras and try to connect them to a PoE switch, they still maintain, their 192.168.254.X IP address. I have tried to use...

    Review-Dahua Starlight IPC-HDW5231R-ZE 800 meter capable ePOE

    This is what I get during the camera inspect, and after I save it, I do get the color bars. Maybe you're running a newer version of the camera firmware or a newer version of BI. My camera firmware is listed in the info below and I'm running BI v4.6.3.0 x64 Opening 192.168.X.X port 80... HTTP...

    Review-Dahua Starlight IPC-HDW5231R-ZE 800 meter capable ePOE

    So I manually selected the ONVIF (OXML) setting you have for your camera and saved it and neither the Blue Iris nor the UI3 web controls operate it to adjust the zoom or varifocal. Then I went back and allowed BI to inspect the camera and choose it's own settings and it left the ONVIF ((OXML)...

    Review-Dahua Starlight IPC-HDW5231R-ZE 800 meter capable ePOE

    If by BI app you mean the main Blue Iris console, no the controls are greyed out there. Under the camera settings > PTZ/Control the "Enable PTZ" is checked and the Network IP below is set to Dahua/Q-See RTSP. Also in that same camera PTZ tab at the bottom under Options, Enable PTZ UI is...

    Review-Dahua Starlight IPC-HDW5231R-ZE 800 meter capable ePOE

    I understand it is not what the varifocal camera was designed for, but the UI3 zoom controls do not control my camera. So how do you zoom it from the UI3 web interface?

    UI3 option examples: /ui3.htm?maximize=1 /ui3.htm?tab=live /ui3.htm?tab=alerts /ui3.htm?tab=clips /ui3.htm?group=groupname /ui3.htm?cam=cameraShortName So to load one camera full screen upon logging in would be: /ui3.htm?cam=cameraShortName&maximize=1

    Blue Iris UI3

    I have almost 30 cameras and 17 groups already, so adding the individual cameras would make the drop down menu too long to weed through for me. Since I've always just selected the camera I want to see the clips and alerts from, I don't see a need to add them to the list as well. That's just my...

    Blue Iris UI3

    I'm pretty sure that's the way it has always worked (the drop down menu filter only shows camera groups) but all you have to do is click on the camera feed that you want to filter by and then only those alerts will be shown for that camera.

    Blue Iris UI3

    Just a thought about the labels. They currently overlay the video image. I think in a very early thread you said that this could be resolved by the user adding some padding into the pixel values that are set for screen size in Blue Iris. Is it possible to have an option in UI3 that adds this...

    I'm having a problem with the camera labels overlay (or maybe I don't understand the settings correctly). I want to show the camera label only if one camera is shown, not when multiple cameras are shown. When I select the "show only when one camera is visible" option, I still don't see the...

    BI Tools backup not working

    Yes, I think that is the only way to do it. BI Tools>Options>Backup>Backup Blue Iris Settings / Cameras>Export BI Settings / Cameras BI Tools says that has been successfully backed up, but when I navigate to the default folder where it backed up the settings (C:\Program Files (x86)\Blue Iris...

    I'm now running BIT 1.1.7 and still having the issue of it not backing up the cameras or BI settings.

    Blue Iris Tools - Weather Overlay, Watchdog & more!

    Same here. BITools DOES backup, but camera settings DO NOT backup for me either with v1.1.7. I tired backing up to several places to see if it was a permissions issue but never could get it to work.

    For 4 rows on a portrait monitor, my "specify frame size" is set to 896x1800, but yours will depending mostly upon the resolution of your monitor and somewhat on the ratio of the camera images. I assume that you realize that you will only be able to have 1 or 2 cameras per row, right? I mean...

    The settings that control the UI3 web layout are in the main Blue Iris (server) program under the camera group settings. I've also got a monitor in portrait mode and get 4 rows with no problem.
