    Error connecting wunderground/ check internet /station id

    I have installed BIT and can't get the weather overlay to work. I live in southern Norway and I've tried 3 different weather ids from weatherunderground, but none of them work. I get this message: Error connecting to wunderground. Check your internet connection/station id I have tried...

    Clips and archiving

    I have plenty of disk space available and I want to keep my recorded clips in my "new" folder for as long as possible so that I can view them in BI (keeps them in .bvr format for viewing) before moving them to the "stored" folder where they will be converted from .bvr to h.264. I set my new and...

    Question regarding the alerts / clips window

    The alerts/clips window shows all alerts/clips but the date does not advance automatically from day to day. I have to advance the date manually using the calender to see today's alerts since yesterday.. Isn't the date suppose to change automatically from day to day?

    Dahua HFW4300R-Z not working in Blue Iris

    Ok. I've reverted back to the original ports specified in the camera interface, but like I said in my first post, this does not solve my problem. I can't get the cam to connect to blue Iris properly

    Dahua HFW4300R-Z not working in Blue Iris

    I need help setting up my Dahua HFW4300R-Z in Blue Iris (version 4.3.9.7). First of all, when I first registered the camera on the network ip config page -it showed up immediately in the camera window and worked just fine. I got 15fps, just as I configured in the camera interface. I then...

    Unable to contact my new Dahua IPC-HDBW4300R-Z

    I check my router logs and this is what it said. My cam is 192.168.1.108. Know what it means?

    Unable to contact my new Dahua IPC-HDBW4300R-Z

    I think the problem is a faulty connection. After I first logged on to the camera and changed the ip to DHCP I twisted the cam about 10 degrees clockwise to align it so that I could point it in a more convenient vertical direction. That's what I think did it. As of now my router only picks it up...

    Not familiar with that term (port scan). What do you mean by that?

    Why should it need more power or another power supply now than the first time around?

    Unable to contact my new Dahua IPC-HDBW4300R-Z

    I took it down and put it to a bench test but with the same result. It has nothing to do with bad cabling -that is for sure. I accessed another Dahua cam with the same cables -no problemo. I also tried a 10 sec reset but that didn't do it either. Then I did a 30 sec reset -still no access to...

    Unable to contact my new Dahua IPC-HDBW4300R-Z

    Maybe so but the cable checked out ok with my network cable tester before install. I found the reset button on the cam and reset the camera, and it got its static ip again. So that means it was reset, but I still can't access it. Guess I'll have to try another cable and reconnect it to my laptop.

    Unable to contact my new Dahua IPC-HDBW4300R-Z

    I just got this camera a couple of days ago. I logged on directly from my pc to the camera and changed from static ip to DHCP. Today when I got the camera mounted and connected, I was unable to get a connection. I can see it on my network, and has a ip address of 192.168.1.115. When...

    Caamera UI or Blue Iris?

    I'd like to know which basic settings should for the most part be configured in the camera UI? I just found out that the recording frame rate and iframe configuration is done in the camera UI. I thought most things could be configured in BI, but apparently not. What else? Would be nice to know....

    Where and how in BI to configure recording frame rate and iframes?

    Where in BI can I configure recording framrate and configure iframes accordingly? It seems a little unclear in the help file.

    Alerts in the clips list

    I'm running 4.3.5.0 x64. Downloaded it yesterday. I'll try to reinstall and see if it helps. By the way, if I want to reinstall BI, what's the easiest way of backing up BI setttings so that I don't have to reconfigure everyting after new install? I'm assuming that backing up the cameras is not...

    That's right, I have combine and cut set to 8 hours, but I've selected to view "alerts" in the clips window, and they are not showing up until I restart BI

    Alerts in the clips list

    I am new to BI and I've noticed that it sometimes takes forever in a day before new alerts are visible in the clips window. Today I have been outside my house and I have caused several alerts,but none of them appeared in the clips window. A time period of approx 7 hours, and not one alert was...

    Alerts in the Clips window

    I'm a newbie when it comes to BI. The other day, and before trying to configure my ip cam, BI created an alert in the clips window each time it had made a recording. Now,after having screwed around a bit with the configuration, I no longer get these alerts in the clips window. How do I get...

    I would like to buy one or more of these cameras, so I thought I would check here first to find out if anyone has any knowledge or experience with any of them. It's important also that they do well with the Blue Iris software...

    I'll be recording directly to my hdd on my computer. I already have 3 Vivotek cams connected -2 via POE. I just wasn't sure what you meant by poe injector. A power supply is still needed if I use the injector -and the injector has to be hooked up to my network. I was just a littl unsure what...
