    Blue Iris UI3

    Thanks again bp2008! I should mention that I didn't have a ui3 local-overrides script to past into, but it didn't take too long for me to just try creating a new text file and then copying the script into it and naming it accordingly which worked! I also wanted the text to stand out a bit...

    Blue Iris UI3

    Previously with UI2, you added the ability to show Sunrise and Sunset times as an overlay at the top like this: Any chance of adding that back in to UI3 either at the top or on the sidebar like this? Thanks for all of your efforts and successes! Scott

    Blue Iris Tools - Weather Overlay, Watchdog & more!

    Thanks Mike. It worked and probably will for most, but I had one minor issue that may be unique to my install. I had to set the User Account Control Settings (Win 10 64 bit) to OFF or NEVER NOTIFY. Otherwise, when WIn 10 started, it would sit at the prompt to allow Blue Iris Tools to start...

    Blue Iris Tools - Weather Overlay, Watchdog & more!

    I installed the new update and I'm having one issue. When I go to OPTIONS > BACKUP > BACKUP BLUE IRIS TOOLS SETTINGS it opens the C:\Program Files (x86)\Blue Iris Tools\backup folder and when I click the "Backup BIT Settings" button, I get an error #53 File Not Found. I tried saving to My Docs...

    Blue Iris UI3

    It's there. Just make sure you have the auto-cycle option set in BI for the group(s) of cameras that you want to cycle through (in group settings). Then it will show up as "cycle" group in UI3.

    Blue Iris Tools - Weather Overlay, Watchdog & more!

    I wanted to use the built in settings of BI Tools but I could never get it to work with any of the elevated settings of Windows User Account Control (UAC). That is why I went with NSSM. If anyone knows a way to use BITool with UAC, please chime in.

    Blue Iris Tools - Weather Overlay, Watchdog & more!

    I was sure that the weather was updating without BI Tools running because I did not see the round blue BI Tools icon anywhere in the Taskbar or the Icon tray. So this is why I asked. However, after some more searching I realized that I had created a network service to automatically start BI...

    BI Tools backup not working

    After reading this thread, I discovered that that I'm having the same issues as the OP. I tired the same things to to resolve it to no avail. I'm running BI 4.6.3.0 x64 and BI Tools 1.1.4 (although when I look at the version number of BIT under Properties>Details, it shows version 1.1.0.4)...

    Blue Iris Tools - Weather Overlay, Watchdog & more!

    I know this is probably a dumb question but if Blue Iris Tools is not running, should the weather info still be updating on my video streams?

    Blue Iris UI3

    I think bp2008 is referring to the group resolution settings in blue iris...see post #73

    Blue Iris UI3

    OK, I think I figured it out. The flashing green date means that I'm looking at a paused video and it is alerting me that I'm not actually seeing live video. I think.

    Blue Iris UI3

    OK, I just discovered another interesting feature. Maybe I'm just slow and the last one to be observant enough but the date above the clip list was flashing green which I think meant that there were new clips to download? Or maybe that I need to refresh the clip list? It's cool, but what does...

    Blue Iris UI3

    Well bp2008, you've done it again. You improved an already superior product! I love the ability to cycle through the selected cameras using the PERIOD and COMMA keys, but I also discovered (and love) that you can start the cycle from viewing the main camera group by simply pressing those...

    Blue Iris UI3

    OK, at first I was right clicking in the dead space near the controls and then the words "Log in automatically", but not actually on the "Log in automatically" button, which obviously didn't work. So thank you for that clarification. Here is an image that might help others who are more visual...

    Blue Iris UI3

    First of all, like many others here, I'm loving this new UI3! Thanks for all your hard work on this. Second, I'm sure it's just a PEBKAC error, but I can't seem to find how to change the new log in things you added below. Specifically looking for the instant log in. Are these under the...

    Ideal Receive Buffer for 3MP & 4MP IP cameras?

    Yes, BUT is there any harm in setting it way too high or "overkill"? I imagine that there IS a setting that it too low that would cause problems, but without knowing exactly what it does, I guess we'll just continue to make sure we set it thoroughly in overkill territory.

    Best Blue Iris setting for less false alerts due to windy cloud shadows?

    Me too. I would like more info on how best to use the "object detection" settings. I mainly just use the zones setting and adjust the sensitivity and make time, but I get lots and lots of short clips from the outside cameras each day. A typical day of just shadows from the trees and not much...

    Ideal Receive Buffer for 3MP & 4MP IP cameras?

    Under Camera Properties > Video > Configure > Network Options 1) What is the ideal "Receive Buffer" to use with Hikvision 3MP and 4MP cameras and what are the pros and cons of setting it too low or too high? 2) I've looked through a number of threads which seem to indicate that 20 MB is what...

    BVR files being saved to wrong folder

    Thanks Fenderman, that was it. After using BI for almost 2 years, I just started to use more than one profile in order to better understand profiles. I still have a lot to learn!

    Not sure how many settings you need but here are a few that should be relevant. Thanks for your help!

    BVR files being saved to wrong folder

    I have 3 of 16 cameras that are saving the BVR files to the wrong folder. I've tried going in and changing them to a different folder, saving, and then coming back in to the camera properties and changing the saved folder back to what it should be and it still saves to the NEW folder location...

    playback of multiple clips simultaneously?

    I'm replying to this thread mainly to help me and other users out there that can never remember how to play multiple clips concurrently. This is how it is done: With the timeline view showing at the bottom of Blue Iris, choose the camera group that shows all the possible cameras that you wish...

    trigger by object crossing zones A>B problem

    I'm not a programmer so I know that I probably can't figure it out. Even if I had the skills to write a macro in Blue Iris, the real trick would be that the UPS alerts are received as a text message on my phone but how would Blue Iris "know" what my phone receives?

    trigger by object crossing zones A>B problem

    Thanks fenderman and Sammy2. Yep, that was the problem. I had never used that function before so I assumed that an object just had to be anywhere within zone A and then anywhere within zone B in order for the feature to work, but alas that was not the case. It makes sense though, now that I...

    trigger by object crossing zones A>B problem

    I duplicated a camera in BI to create a "package delivery alert" and set up only two zones (A & B) and then set it to trigger when the object crosses from A>B but it isn't working at all. I have both zones touching each other but not overlapping. I've checked all the settings a half a dozen...

    I made a better remote-live-view page [OLD]

    Can you point me to where that script resides on my computer and what value I need to add/edit please? I looked at login.htm but there is alot of "scripting" in there and I'm not a programmer. I realized that but all I would have to do would be to go back and remove the stored name (or...
