    Problems with Blurams Smart Video Doorbell

    I've just received this via Blurams' crowdfunding campaign (I'm in the UK). While it has some nice features (e.g. face detection, Google Home integration and free lifetime cloud storage), I can't get it to reliably notify me (on my Android phone) when someone presses the doorbell. Basically I...

    Anyone tried Eufy Security Floodlight & Camera?

    I've just ordered one of these to provide lighting and camera coverage for my front door. It doesn't suppprt RTSP, but I was wondering whether anyone had worked out a way of getting a video stream from it that can be fed into 3rd party apps (e.g. Blue Iris)?

    Yi Cloud Dome 1080P PTZ control from Blue Iris?

    Sadly it seems not. Well, not at the moment - the GitHub page says that ONVIF is "in development": TheCrypt0/yi-hack-v4

    Yi Cloud Dome 1080P PTZ control from Blue Iris?

    I have a hacked Yi Cloud Dome 1080P configured with Blue Iris. The rtsp video stream works fine, but I don't seem able to get PTZ control from BI. Is this actually possible?

    Netatmo Presence with Blue Iris?

    Hadn't seen the wiki before. I don't see any info on cameras/sellers there. Am I missing something??

    Netatmo Presence with Blue Iris?

    I should also have mentioned that I'm in the UK. I haven't managed to find a supplier of Starlights in the UK so far :0(

    Netatmo Presence with Blue Iris?

    Many thanks. Actually I rarely visit this forum (I have never heard of Starlights, nor do I know which floodlights are favoured here!) so your recommendations are very useful. I'm very much a hobbyist, and am also retired so always looking for cost-effective solutions ;0). I've never spent more...

    Netatmo Presence with Blue Iris?

    I'm looking for an outdoor cam with built-in LED floodlight and the Netatmo Presence is the only option that I've found so far. Does anyone know if it works with Blue Iris 4?

    Panoramic light bulb camera - view from PC or Blue Iris?

    OK so I finally managed to find a packet sniffer for Android that doesn't require root access - it's called Packet Capture. I was able to determine that this is the path that the IP Cam Viewer app is using to access the RTSP stream from the camera: /h264/ch1/main/av_stream I've put this into...

    Panoramic light bulb camera - view from PC or Blue Iris?

    I think Wireshark needs root access on Android (which I don't have). Will try emailing BI support - thanks

    Panoramic light bulb camera - view from PC or Blue Iris?

    Hmmm...I tried all of the URLs suggested here for rtsp streams from HDL cams but none seem to work: Connect to HDL IP cameras I'm wondering whether there's a way of determining what path the IP Cam Viewer Android app is using to access the rtsp stream from the camera?

    Panoramic light bulb camera - view from PC or Blue Iris?

    Hmmm....Fing shows that it has rtsp on 554...I'm not sure why the BI auto-detect isn't getting a video stream from it. Will try some of the suggested URL's from your link...

    Can you suggest one? Netscan finds it, but that doesn't recognise cams

    When I inspect the camera's IP address in BI it says "RTSP port detected!" ???

    Panoramic light bulb camera - view from PC or Blue Iris?

    I've just discovered that the IP Cam Viewer app on my phone recognises the camera as an HDL DVR-HM / NVR-HM, and successfully streams the video from it. Is there any comparable camera in the Blue Iris compatibility list??

    Vstarcam C7837WIP camera not starting up

    My Vstarcam C7837WIP stopped transmitting a video signal yesterday (although it still responds to pings), and cannot be accessed from its web interface. When I power cycle the camera the ring of infrared red LEDs on the front of the camera light up dimly for about 10 seconds before going out...

    BI not detecting loss of signal

    I have a couple of IP cameras which frequently drop out - the BI stream showing "no signal" - but the loss of signal watchdog doesn't trigger (I have scripts configured to execute, but they don't). What exactly causes BI to register a "loss of signal" event? I'm running BI v4 on Windows 2008...

    BI Power cycle camera on loss of signal?

    That sounds like a good idea - thanks. Since I want to execute two CURL commands, with a delay of a few seconds between them, I guess I'll need to create a .bat file and run that from BI.

    BI Power cycle camera on loss of signal?

    I know what you mean about the cams going offline - that's why I have all of mine on smart sockets (some of the cams are wireless, so PoE isn't an option for them). I use the Energenie Mihome gateway to power cycle any cameras that I notice have stalled, but would rather have BI do it...

    BI Power cycle camera on loss of signal?

    Thanks. I've tried using a web alert, but when I test it I get "Error requesting page".

    BI Power cycle camera on loss of signal?

    One of my IP cams frequently drops out (i.e. stops sending a signal), and needs to be power cycled to restore it. The BI (v4) option to power cycle it on loss of signal does not do anything when the cam signal drops, so I have plugged the cam into an Energenie Mihome smart plug, and want BI to...

    IFTT and Blue Iris

    How do you get IFTTT to use HTTP basic authentication? The only way I could do it was embedding my login credentials in the URL, which isn't exactly secure - e.g. http://bi-username:bi-password@mydyndns.ddns.net:90/admin?profile=3

    Easily control BI with Google Home or Amazon Echo

    I'm really interested in this, and have just installed Dashrunner to check it out. I'd like to use IFTTT to change my BI profile. I've managed to connect Dashrunner to my BI server, but I don't know how to configure IFTTT in Dashrunner. Specfically, what do I need to enter in the IFTTT maker...

    IFTT and Blue Iris

    I've been trying to use IFTTT to change my Blue Iris profile, using IFTTT's Webhooks service to send the appropriate HTTP request to my BI server. If I fire off the HTTP request below from a web browser it corrrectly sets my BI profile to 3 (I have port 90 redirected to my BI server on my...

    Vstarcam C7837WIP - anyone have 48.50.*.* firmware?

    No, I never resolved it so returned the cam for a refund. I also realised that there was no way of updating the firmware on the model that I had (at least not from the web GUI)
