    Blue Iris Release 5.6.0.4 Crashed My System

    Hello, Is anyone else having problems after installing Release 5.6.0.4? BI was running fine before I ran the update and now a message box pops up and states "Lost Connection to service [2]" or "The service may not be initializing properly or quickly enough; try again in 30 seconds and reboot PC...

    TIA/EIA 568-C.2 vs TIA/EIA 568-B.2

    At first Amazon told me I had a choice to return it. However, at 3:00AM this morning I received an email with more information. Given this I'll use the cable. The jacket is thicker than the CMR cable I already had but even with that I was able to put a connector on without much extra effort. The...

    TIA/EIA 568-C.2 vs TIA/EIA 568-B.2

    Yes, the specs in the ad look good. All I have been able to determine is the A.2 and B.2 standard is about wire layout but that C.2 adds a lot more in terms of the specifications. Which is why I'm asking. They mention the C.2 standard several times in the ad but what I received has B.2 stamped...

    TIA/EIA 568-C.2 vs TIA/EIA 568-B.2

    Hi, I purchased a roll of cable that was rated in the advertisement as TIA/EIA 568-C.2. Here's the link... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09C1JFWM5?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1 The ad goes to great lengths to highlight compliance with the C.2 standard but the cable I received has...

    Yup, that's me. I'm having a new garage built this year and the process has just begun. It motivated me to get the cameras up because a good part of this summer my backyard will be wide open to anyone that wants to wander in. My brother in-law is going to dismantle my old garage and put it back...

    Well, I have my cameras up and running outside now. Still learning how to dial them in but it's going fairly well. Last night I captured this pair having a dispute! :)

    Blue Iris UI3

    Yes, that is where I disabled the "Auto-ban IP after attempts:" and the "Release temp ban after mins:" options. Initially I was still banned. I tried it a few times in a 15 minute timeframe and could not get in but a couple of hours later I tried it again and was able to login. I'm still unsure...

    Blue Iris UI3

    Hello, I've been having issues with UI3 not accepting my password when I enter it on my phone. No matter how slow and exact I make sure I enter my password I always get password is invalid at least once. I would always eventually get in, until today... Today it failed 5 times and now it has...

    Camera Recommendation

    Indeed it does... I received my 5442 Z4E & tested it. Nice camera. The zoom is giving me what I want & I do like the flexibility of the varifocal lens. Things will be changing in my backyard and I'll be able to adapt to it as it changes. After my new garage is built I will then have a very good...

    Bit Rate

    Hi, I'm trying to learn how to use the manual settings on my Dahua 5442T-ZE camera. In the camera interface I have the bit rate set to 8192. However, when I select the camera in Blue Iris it displays about 1024. I have one camera for testing and I set sub-streams off for now. I do have direct...

    Camera Recommendation

    Okay. Something like this?

    Camera Recommendation

    For a start I'm thinking I might go with this arrangement. The longer range camera will give me more detail during the garage build using a wider FOV and when finished a very good picture of the door, window, and new sidewalk. The other two cameras will provide close to house coverage. Is there...

    Camera Recommendation

    Hello... I'm new to security cameras and I've made some progress. Have Blue Iris installed, POE Switch, Dual Nic Setup, basic understanding of the software, etc, and I have an IPC-T5442T-ZE mounted on a 7 foot high temporary testing pole that I can move around. I will eventually have 8 -12...
