    Time Date Stamp Question

    I don't own a Sricam, but I do own a Zoneway that did not seem to have a place to change the OSD of the date. What I found out was that if I clicked on Preset 16 twice, it would bring up an On Screen menu. I then could move around the menu using the ptz controls. One of the menu items was...

    Under "Add New Camera", "Type", select "Copy from another camera". This will add the same camera and will not pull a second stream. Give it a different name and short name. You can then set the cloned camera triggers and alerts different from the original camera.

    Clip Export - no option for conversion?

    First you must be viewing the clip. The clip viewer allows you to edit clips by moving the two markers you see below the position slider--there's a green or "start" point and a red or "stop" point. To make your edit permanent, click the Convert/Export button that's to the right of the black...

    How to ignore section on motion detection

    In Blueiris/ Camera Properties/Trigger/Motion Sensor/Use Zones and Hot Spots. Edit the zones. Blueiris wants you to highlight the area that you want to monitor for motion detection, not block. So select Zone A then highlight, with green, the area you DO want to monitor for motion detection...

    Amazon Echo commands

    Amazon Alexa and BlueIris. Initially when I tried "Connect to Amazon Echo" everything went fine. Stupidly I removed the device "Amazon Echo" from BlueIris. When I tried to connect it again, the echo could not detect BlueIris. Others have reported a similar problem. Today I got it to work...

    PTZ schedule on 4.5.3.3

    Not sure what version you had installed before this latest update. If you can find the 4.5.3.2 update that might solve your problem. Unfortunately I keep neglecting to download and save updates. Maybe someone on this forum can supply the 4.5.3.2 update, or your latest update version.

    Clip and Archiving... what am I missing?

    You have the limit set at 21 days, OR 20GB. You more than likely exceeded the 20GB which will activate the move. You need to allocate more drive space. Since it only lasted 3 days I would expect 140GB would allow 21 days of storage before moving to stored.

    Amazon Echo commands

    Just to make sure, when Echo connects to BlueIris it shows up as "Hue Light". Also in BlueIris on the "Mobile Device" tab it adds a device with the name "Amazon Echo", I assume that neither of those things are showing up? I seem to remember that when I first tried to connect the Echo to...

    Amazon Echo commands

    On your router, the attached devices page, can you see the IP address of your BlueIris computer, and your Echo? I could only identify my Echo by MAC address which I got from the Alexa App on my android phone. Router Firmware: V1.0.7.6_1.1.99

    Multiple profiles question

    There are multiple ways to do what you want. One method would be to give each camera it's own schedule. You can select "Override global schedule for this camera" and set a different schedule for each camera, with different profiles at different times in the schedule.

    Amazon Echo commands

    Lots of information in your post. If you follow the steps in the first post of this thread, what happens? When Alexa finds BlueIris, it adds a device named "Amazon Echo", did it add the device? You do not need to have Hue lights for it to work.

    Help...19821W...all of a sudden no picture

    Haven't seen this exact problem, but I do own Foscams. When things go really bad I do a factory reset. You can do it by either using the software factory reset, or use the pinhole in the bottom of the camera. Connect ethernet then find camera. After the reset the camera will have a new IP...

    Problems upgrading Foscam Firmware

    Amazon Echo commands

    Configured this last night. Works as stated. I like the feature to select a camera (bring to full screen) with a single command (Alexa Camera1 on). The PTZ is a little odd because of the need for percentage, but it does work (Alexa set Camera1 to 40) moves to preset 4. I have Profile 7 set to...

    Time-Lapse Recording

    Don't use the Alt/timelapse framerate. Instead set the Video record setting to "Periodic, each". You already have the min set a 1:00 and sec at 1.0 (If you just want one frame each minute then set sec to 0.0). If you still want it to trigger when there is motion then select "Triggered +...
