    Poof! Cameras Gone, Along With BI Support....?

    This problem maybe caused by a weird combination of things that causes your settings to be deleted like running Blue Iris in non-admin mode and possibly running Blue Iris as a Windows Service. You can check Blue Iris Settings -> Startup tab and see if the option "run as Windows Service" is...

    Blue Iris 4 to 5 Migration Guide

    Yes, I have also encountered the same problem. I have reported this problem to Ken (Blue Iris support). For anyone interested, you can make a backup of Blue Iris settings using REGEDIT from the command line or from a batch file. [ For 64-bit version of Blue Iris 5 ] REGEDIT /E:A...

    Poof! Cameras Gone, Along With BI Support....?

    The first time you upgraded from Blue Iris 4 (BI4) to Blue Iris 5 (BI5), did your cameras and settings appear in BI5 the first time you ran it? And did they disappear after you exited BI5? Or did your cameras, settings and registration disappear after uninstalling BI4? What account type are you...

    Blue Iris 4 to 5 Migration Guide

    I just want to report that the same thing happened to me when I uninstalled Bi4 and selected not to delete "registry keys and registration". My registration was gone and my cameras. In my case, "Sync with Profile 1" was also not selected. I recovered the same way you did by re-importing the...

    Amcrest IP2M-841B PTZ

    My Amcrest HD PRO 1080P IPM2-841W was having motion activated recordings freezes for periods of 6-7 seconds at random intervals. The video freezes were solved by disabling RTSP/stream timecode in Blue Iris camera properties video tab. This was recommended from Ken at Blue Iris support. Ken's...

    Amcrest IP2M-841B PTZ

Select "Amcrest" for the Make and "ProHD/IP2/3/4M Main Stream RTSP" for the model. Increase your "Receive buffer (MB)" to 20 and unselect...

    Zone A motion detecting keeps losing the configuration and going to default

    I would try excluding the path where Blue Iris (C:\Program Files\Blue Iris 4) is installed from your Antivirus Security software. Also, make sure you are launching Blue Iris using BlueIrisAdmin.exe or have checked the option "Require run-as Administrator" in Blue Iris Options -> Startup.

    Thanks @bp2008. That's spot on. GPU-Z is also showing GPU utilization on my i5-2400/Intel HD Graphics 2000 Windows 10 PC.

    Affordable PC for BI and around 10 Cameras

    I would also recommend purchasing a PC with Windows 10 Professional over the Home Edition. The main benefit of Pro over Home is being able to defer "Feature Updates" for up to 365 days.

    FYI - Amazon deal of the day LaView / Hik OEM 1080P WiFi 360° PT camera $37.45

    For a low end PT indoor camera (Hikvision OEM), this camera had OK reviews. A few people listed issues with Wifi connection problems, setup and with the seller's tech support. Can you or SD User post the video connect strings for this camera for Blue Iris (make, model, path & parms)? The reason...

    newest hikvision 5MP mini ptz indoor review

    I just purchased this same camera (NSC-2P5-PT also known by DS-2CD2F52-IS) very cheap at Nelly's Security. I will mostly likely be running this camera at 3MP / 10 fps so it doesn't overtax my Intel i5-2400 system. I currently have 2 x Dahua IPC-HFW2100 1.3MP @ 10fps, 1 x Amcrest IP2M-841W Camera...

    I would also uncheck "Object Detect" from motion sensor. It is known to cause this problem.

    Amcrest IP2m-842 Bad Ghosting

    I would also change the camera make and model in Blue Iris to "Amcrest - PRO HD/IP2/3/4M Main Stream RTSP". Also, unselect "USE RTSP/Stream timecode" otherwise you could see video freezes.

    anyone else have Avast flag the latest update as malware

    In regards to false positives, you could exclude the Blue Iris program folder from Avast scanning. In Avast, go to Settings -> General -> Exclusions and add C:\Program Files\Blue Iris 4\*

    Check whether option "Force Window to foreground in addition to "Restore window when triggered" is selected and if so, unselect it. This setting is found in Blue Iris Options -> Cameras.

    Conficker

    You can also try downloading an Antivirus Rescue CD like Avira Rescue System or Bitdefender Rescue as an ISO image and burn then to a CD or write them to a USB flash drive so it is bootable. You will probably have better success detecting and removing malware from booting from a Rescue CD or...

    Video looks grainy in Blue Iris and the Blue Iris app

    I noticed a few things. For starters your camera's bitrate is set to an odd value of 2707. This is a bit low for a 2MP camera. For 1080p, I would recommend 4Mbps to 6Mbps. I would start with changing your bitrate to 4096 and re-evaluate. You can also try changing the Bit rate type from VBR to...

    Need to Reduce Recorded File Size Using FPS

    You need to control the frame rate (fps) directly from the camera's user interface and not from Blue Iris. Blue Iris accepts the camera's video stream at the rate it is supplied. It would be more helpful if you supplied more information on your camera's make and model.

    High CPU Useage on 22 Camera build system

    I would recommend reducing your "Pre-trigger video buffer" on each camera from 10 seconds to down 2-3 seconds. This will help reduce the memory footprint Blue Iris uses as well as CPU usage.

    Amcrest ProHD Camera Serious Security Issue

    This is possible another reason why you should avoid Amcrest cameras in general. I am assuming the person who returned the Amcrest camera purchased another Amcrest camera. The Amazon seller then resold the returned Amcrest camera without dissociating the ID from Amcrest cloud. This allowed the...

    blue iris crash version: 4.4.6.2

    Faulting module mfc120u.dll could mean that you need to install or repair-install Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable Packages. This is a requirement for Blue Iris 4.x. I recommend installing both 32-bit and 64-bit packages. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=40784...

    4.4.6 - October 11, 2016

    I can't seem to find an option called "hardware accelerated clip playback". I am using hardware decoding: Yes (No VPP) and do not have "Also use for BVR playback" enabled. I am not having a crashing problem, just wondering why I can't find hardware accelerated clip playback.
