Noob IPCAM Installer Needs Help!
I would suggest a network scanner. There are many you can download and install or you could try running arp commands from the command line. Tinycam has one built into it that works well. -----------------------------Edit------------------------------ A good scanner should be able to find it... -

Blue Iris Video Tutorials
I have learned a lot from your videos... they are much appreciated. I have a request about your zone crossing videos. Could you do something with crossing multiple zones? I'm trying to do a AB>C type thing and it doesn't work like I'd expect. Not sure what to tweak. Or if there is a setting for... -

How to connect Tinycam Monitor to Blue Iris
Works like normal for me except the h.264 part. jpeg and mjpeg both work local and remote (via stunnel and https) and I'm on 4.7.3.1 x64 -

Blue Iris video recording for one month
In your screenshot under the word folders you have the New folder selected... I think they want you go move one down to stored. Then screenshot that. -

Blue Iris URLs for external streams
http://BlueIrisIP:port/admin?camera=Cam2&preset=1 The above is what I use with my PTZ cam in BI and preset 1 is preset 1 on the cam. I also had some advice about the login: This worked for me. -

Blue Iris URLs for external streams
I believe I did do this, but I'm not where I can check right now. IIRC it was just the number like 1 or 2 not 101 or 102. -

Anyone try to set Macro Text via URL?
Trying to do this: /admin?macro=x&text={text} Set macro number x=1-9 to value {text} but can't seem to get it to work. I am trying to get my own weather station to display over one of my cams. Right now I use BITools to do this, but would like to get it to show my own weather station. Using an... -

ANNKE I61DR 2MP (Hikvision Cube Clone)
I did the inspect for mine and it works. In BI go into the cam properties and then hit the video tab then configure button. In the new window hit the Find/inspect button and use what it finds. Hope that helps.- danbutter

Help setting up a ip-camera as a "trail cam" at a mountain cabin
It will depend on where you put the sensor. They usually need 12 VDC for power although you may find some that are battery powered. I would search for security motion detectors. Brands like DSC, honeywell, optex, bosch are all good brands. You can likely find one for around $80. Some will be...- danbutter

Help setting up a ip-camera as a "trail cam" at a mountain cabin
You could get a cam with an alarm input and hook up a motion sensor to trigger it. You may have issues with the smaller animals not tripping it though. There are laser/IR tripwires out there that you could use. Depends on how in depth you want to get.- danbutter

Users Tab, Homepage. What is it and how to use?
Exactly what I'm doing. Right now I'm just having them bookmark the full URL with the /image/{cam-short-name}?q=50&s=80 in it and that will work ok. It would just be cleaner the other way. I didn't realize you could make your own .htm page and toss it in the directory. Thanks for the tip and... -

Users Tab, Homepage. What is it and how to use?
Ok I tried it and it works fine, but seems to be limited to .htm pages as the /image/cam short name urls don't work. I just get sent to the default.htm when I try. I'll have to email support and see if that would be an easy change he may be willing to make in the future. I can't see many people... -

Has Anyone Here Tested the SD1A203T-GN Yet (2MP 3x Starlight IR PTZ Network Camera)?
So many models! Is this the one billg had with PT, but no zoom? I'll have to look into that link. Thanks. -

Has Anyone Here Tested the SD1A203T-GN Yet (2MP 3x Starlight IR PTZ Network Camera)?
Does the black part come off? As I mentioned earlier I would need to paint it to be able to buy it. I'm not worried about the IR reflections as long as the IR can be turned off like most cams. -

Users Tab, Homepage. What is it and how to use?
I'm trying to get BI setup to serve an image of one and only one of my cams. I have the URL and it works fine. It is for someone outside my house and I'm trying to keep bandwidth consumption down. I was setting up a new user for them and noticed the "homepage" box at the bottom of the window. I... -

Has Anyone Here Tested the SD1A203T-GN Yet (2MP 3x Starlight IR PTZ Network Camera)?
Uggh. I love the idea of a small ptz like this, but can't do the black even if the reason for it makes sense. I'll have to either find something else or come up with an alternative mount or paint it or.... something. -

Has Anyone Here Tested the SD1A203T-GN Yet (2MP 3x Starlight IR PTZ Network Camera)?
Is there a reason why it is black like that? Too much IR reflectivity? That was the first question the wife had and of course she didn't want it to be black. The pic of the one billg had a few posts ago wasn't black. Is this a different model? -

How do you all watch Dahua cams on your tv's
If you use Kodi there is an addon called surveillance room that can do this. It was made for foscam cams, but I've gotten a hikvision and a dahua working with it. I recently asked the dev about blue iris support. I'm a cord cutter and watch tv through kodi using my hdhomerun. This addon can pop... -

This would be perfect for the front door area of my house. I could see anyone coming up to the door and then still be able to check and see if there are packages. Waiting to see if Andy can get this. -

Why use blue iris over amcrest?
the webserver part works with the trial. The direct to disk is said not to work even though you can select it. There is an overlay on all cams when viewing them. I just tried it and ended up buying a couple weeks ago. Pretty happy with it. I'm on here asking a lot of questions because there is... -

BI filled hdd and stopped recording
Not sure what I screwed up, but I am missing something here. I started with the demo and then I was using a SSD for the install and a HDD for recording to. I got a larger HDD, added that to the PC and bought the full program. I am now seeing the HDD is full and it stopped recording. The bottom...
