    New Weather API built in BI 5.9.9.29

    I emailed Blue Iris Support about the temp and wind speed precision. Ken has modified the existing %053 and %057 macros so that they include one decimal place of precision. He did this in version 5.9.9.43

    New Weather API built in BI 5.9.9.29

    I have the new Weather API working, but I am trying to find a way to display the temp and wind speed with more precision. I would like to display the values to at least one decimal place. Is there a way to do this?

    Camera Event Scheduler to Run Program or Execute Script

    I just added a new Hikvision camera and I ran into the same problem you are describing. Apparently, the firmware on newer cameras includes a setting under Network/Advanced Settings/Integration Protocol. Navigate to that tab and check "Enable Hikvision-CGI". Then choose "digest/basic" for...

    3xlogic is there a way to get passed camera password

    You didn't mention the actual camera model, but if the camera has a reset button, you can try resetting the camera to factory default settings. The factory default username and password are likely: username = admin, password = 12345 This information is based on a Google search for 3XLOGIC...

    How to open a pipe

    See attached image: In order to generalize which way to turn the "Union Nut" to loosen the union, you must first identify the parts of the union. Once you determine which is the "Union Thread Piece" and which is the "Union Tail Piece," it will be obvious which way to turn the "Union Nut" in...

    Camera Alarm Output (Dahua TIOC) - what voltage level ?

    It's sometimes difficult to tell from the manufacturer datasheets. It could be that the alarm output is simply a set of relay contacts with no power supplied from the camera (dry contacts). If this is the case, the alarm circuit would have to be externally powered. I'm sure the contacts would be...

    Multiple Servers - Different Colors

    I monitor two different locations using the Blue Iris app on my iPhone. When I get an alert on my phone, it is readily apparent which location it is associated with because the server name is embedded in the alert text.

    Error: CodeProject.AI Server service is not a valid Win32 application

    I fixed the problem by opening the registry editor and navigating to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\CodeProject.AI Server I modified the ImagePath by adding quotes to the string. Specifically, I changed the ImagePath from this C:\Program...

    Error: CodeProject.AI Server service is not a valid Win32 application

    Thanks. I am not sure which path you are referring to. CodeProject.AI.Server.exe was installed at C:\Program Files\CodeProject\AI\Server. I'm not sure that's what you are asking, though.

    Error: CodeProject.AI Server service is not a valid Win32 application

    Any ideas on how to solve this problem? I have installed the CodeProject AI Server on a Windows 10 PC and intend to use it with Blue Iris, but the CodeProject.AI Server service will not start. The Windows system event log showed the error below... The CodeProject.AI Server service failed to...

    Bit Rate

    Well, Spiff. That one takes the cake. I'm still chuckling. There should be an acronym for "bewildered silent blink response" (BSBR), but it would probably never catch on unless you could somehow attach that clip to it. Too good!!

    Camera has power but no signal

    For reference, the RJ45 connectors that gave me trouble were these: Cat6A Extra Large Pass Through RJ45 Connectors | Unshielded I think the problem may have been associated with tolerances in the staggered design. The technical representative at True Cable was aware of the problem and...

    Camera has power but no signal

    I had trouble with some Cat6A RJ45 passthrough connectors from Tru Cable. There was a manufacturing problem with tolerances in the connector that was resulting in intermittent shorting. Tru Cable ended up sending me some standard Cat6 passthrough connectors that worked perfectly. You might want...

    IPCT-NITECOLOR-DM2 (DS-2CD2347G1-L) LED control

    I haven't configured one of the Nightcolor cams, but I don't think Smart Supplement Light is the setting you are looking for. Check to see if you have a setting to enable the light under Maintenance/System Service or something like that. For IR LEDs that's where the Enable IR Light setting is...

    Blue Iris Clip Playback Frame by Frame

    Ok, after playing around with the playback buttons for awhile, I think I now understand the intent of the first dot on either side of the pause bars. I was trying to just click the dot once expecting to advance one frame with each mouse click. I think the intended use of these dots is to click...

    Blue Iris Clip Playback Frame by Frame

    Thanks! My camera has an FPS and iframe of 6. I would expect the clip to advance 1/6 of a second each time I click the dot with a new frame displayed after each click. That isn't what is happening. I must click 5 times before I see a new frame. I'll have to check, but I don't think the time is...

    Blue Iris Clip Playback Frame by Frame

    Yes, I had already found that in the help file. It actually takes about 5 mouse clicks to advance 1 frame. I thought maybe there was a way to advance 1 frame each mouse click. It is especially annoying when you are dealing with the lag of working remotely using Teamviewer. Interestingly, the...

    Blue Iris Clip Playback Frame by Frame

    I am currently running Blue Iris 5.3.7.4. I have been searching for a way to playback a recorded clip frame by frame. It used to be possible to advance or reverse frame by frame with each click of the mouse button. I have figured out that I can advance frame by frame by clicking a little to the...

    adding Coax cams with Cat5 to Coax adapters

    You might try the settings in the attached screenshot. I think our Intellinet cams are upgraded Vivoteks. For username and password, try admin admin.

    adding Coax cams with Cat5 to Coax adapters

    I am not sure your "Altronix eBridge Cat5 to Coax adapters" will work in this application. At least, I couldn't find any Altronix eBridge devices online that are intended for this purpose. I think you will need a video server in order to provide a url to access the analog cameras. The servers...

    Wiring for 12v IR?

    I'm not sure the POE Splitter will supply any power to your Dahua camera. I think the power is "split" out to the barrel plug, but no power is supplied to the RJ-45 male connector.

    Hikvision DS-2CD2032-I Text Overlay (Problem with Overlays 2, 3, and 4)

    I have never figured it out. I just assume it is firmware related. I can still only get mine to display one of the four overlays at a time.

    One camera's border keeps flashing yellow and it's not detecting motion

    From What's New 4.6.4 - October 23, 2017: "The camera border will be yellow when the motion detection is paused, such as after a PTZ command or PTZ preset position change."

    Blue Iris failing to detect motion for large objects

    Here is an excerpt from Blue Iris help documentation. "Use the Object size exceeds setting to reset the motion detector when very large objects are detected. This will help to prevent false positive triggering in the event of scene or major lighting changes."

    Blue Iris failing to detect motion for large objects

    If you have "Object detection" selected in your "Motion sensor" settings, you may need to edit your "Object size exceeds" setting. I have mine set at 85% because I had the same problem you describe. You will find the setting at Camera properties\Trigger\Motion sensor Configure\Object detection...
