    You need to set up each camera on the Blue Iris Options/FTP Servers tab and then you need to set up the snapshot schedule on each camera's Camera Properties/Post tab.

    Continuous Recording Starts a second too early intermittently

    I have too continuous recording cut every one hour and have about 25% of my clip recordings showing as either starting one second before the hour or having a duration of 59 minutes and 59 seconds. However, my recordings are accessible from the mobile app. The time stamp on the recordings that is...

    Wired & Wireless System info

    If you're wondering if wireless and wired cameras can coexist with Blue Iris, yes they can. Apart from the stability of a wired camera stream versus a wireless camera stream Blue Iris doesn't really care or act any differently regardless of how the cameras are connected to the network.

    BI E-mail support?

    My issue was that after version 4.4.9.10 the camera, a Foscam FI9821W V1 would constantly disconnect, many times each hour. I stumbled upon the solution of changing the camera property on the Video/Configure tab to a different camera model.

    BI E-mail support?

    I very rarely have had to contact support and hope this was just a "one off" and got lost in the system. Maybe they got my message that the issue was resolved, it was about a week later, and being busy didn't take the time to acknowledge. The saving grace is that I can usually resolve issues by...

    BI E-mail support?

    I have a paid up support subscription. Last month I emailed support regarding an ongoing problem but never received a reply. I eventually was able to resolve the issue and emailed support to advise them that my issue was resolved and what the resolution was. Still no response. I thought I was...

    Blue Iris UI3

    I think the extra padding option looks just about perfect.

    USB Camera no Signal

    Have you tried deleting that camera from Blue Iris and then adding it back? That worked for me with the same problem. I had to add the camera back "from scratch", not by importing saved camera specs.

    USB Camera no Signal

    I had a problem today where my USB camera would show No Signal in Blue Iris and the ON light on the camera would not light up. I went into Windows Camera app and the camera was available and working fine there. Also, whenever I disabled the USB camera in Blue Iris a different camera in the same...

    Update Fixes and Enhancements

    Those posts are the first thing I look for when there is a new release and I appreciate you doing that. Sometimes there is no post for releases and I wondered if there was somewhere else I could find that information.

    Update Fixes and Enhancements

    Yes, I have done that many times. I was just asking if there was anywhere one can find what the updates are for each release.

    Update Fixes and Enhancements

    That lists the updates up to and including the version that is installed. I was thinking of some way to know what updates are before installing a new release. But thanks for responding.

    Update Fixes and Enhancements

    Is there somewhere where one can find out details of what changes are being made in each Blue Iris software update? With the rapid releases happening again, four updates in five days, while I am hesitant to update until a release is known to be stable, it would be nice to know what issues or...

    Blue Iris UI3

    Understood... but the short name is what shows on the Blue Iris console Alerts and Clips and is the name that I think most people would be familiar with and used to seeing on Alerts and Clips. If UI3 is eventually to be integrated into Blue Iris there is something to be said for consistency.

    Blue Iris UI3

    I really like the UI3 interface and have not found any major issues with the beta apart from the finalizing of clip playback. I use UI2 and now UI3 on a fairly small screen notebook when away from home so the enlarged thumbnail feature, however it is finally implemented, is an important feature...

    after last few updates cameras are dropping

    I have managed to resolve this issue. The solution -- well, as fenderman would say, "there's something wrong with your settings", although in this case I believe something changed in Blue Iris that has required me to change my settings. Finding the setting to change was the hard part. On this...

    JPEG SNAPSHOTS

    To take snapshots when the camera is triggered you might be better setting this up on the "Post" tab rather than on the "Record" tab.

    FTP Image Upload on Motion Detection

    I haven't tested this theory but it seems to me that if a scenario something like if the camera were retriggered after say 25 seconds but the motion had stopped before 30 seconds then there would be no motion in the second image. I think you have to let the first trigger end sooner than 30...

    after last few updates cameras are dropping

    I have a similar problem with a Foscam camera. It's a bit unusual... an FI9821W V1 with separate http and media ports. I'm wondering if it is something to do with the two separate ports but I haven't been able to find a configuration that gives a stable connection for this camera with recent...

    Cancel Set As First View

    In the Android app you can set a particular camera to be displayed when the app starts by pressing the "Set as first view" button bar in that camera's configurations. Does anyone know if there is a way to cancel the "first view" camera setting so the app will again open to the camera list?

    Limit Recording Period

    You say you have your recordings going to the STORED folder and the configuration in the attachment to your first message is moving the recordings from the STORED folder to the STORED folder after 14 days. Why would you not just limit the clip age to 30 days if that is the time period you want...

    Point me to explanation and best practices on folder use

    Yes, the new folder is named NEW and the stored folder is named STORED within the Blue Iris application but I believe you can name them however you want on disk. For example, my STORED folder is named Storage on disk. The only reason to implement archiving of recording files from the NEW folder...

    Point me to explanation and best practices on folder use

    In my mind, the use of NEW and STORED folders depends to some extent on whether you are fitting Blue Iris to existing hardware or if you are configuring hardware to Blue Iris. The ALERTS and AUX folders are not really useful or necessary unless you have an unusual requirement that can be handled...

    long time issue with cams dropping fixed

    I've had similar issues and tried your fixes with success so far. I did turn watchdogs back on and things are still good. I'm wondering if there may be disconnects that go unnoticed with watchdogs turned off. I did have two cameras disconnect while watchdogs were off but wouldn't have known...
