    Free File Server?

    Hey all I spent an entire day creating some real cool audio files that you can assign to Blue Iris for playback on your PC. They came out so well that I would love sharing them with other BI users, but the file size between two zipped audio options is slighty under 60 megabytes. Can anyone...

    Alternative to Blue Iris

    ROFL Your so right @Q2U. My first build was a 286 and I probably spent just over a K for that. Been so damn long now. At some point I'm going to build another system to run BI dedicated. Right now its on my all-around PC for web surfing, gaming, monkey spanking, etc. :laugh: I'll admit I had...

    Ken sells Blue Iris

    Was the purpose of this thread to give us a mini heart attack or has Ken been considering it? :mad-new: Sure as hell glad the current version is now working solid on Windows 10. That should keep most users content for a very long time, assuming of course Microsoft doesn't throw a curve ball...

    Motion blur in B/W mode

    Wow! That's some great info. No doubt other's can benefit on this as well. I would love getting those Crown Jewels, but height around a single story house doesn't offer much protection against theft. I live in area that is slowly becoming a hot-spot for regular burglaries. It really is a drag...

    Outdoor camera without wiring

    Ok; I think you about covered your impression of both VueZone and Arlo :laugh: Like I said..... I have both and stared off with VueZone. Yes, there is no comparison with all the bells and whistles our PoE cams provide, but Arlo isn't a terrible idea to most and I myself still love my little...

    Direct to Disk...Should I do it?

    Two years of using BI and I never realized I needed to manually set that H.264 option on.:numbness: I really didn't see a CPU diff anyways, but its on now (LOL). Tiger

    Outdoor camera without wiring

    I myself wouldn't under sell a system like Arlo. Those camera's are great for providing on the fly monitoring and awareness, but not an effective means of continuous recording. It really depends on what your individual needs are. I use both types of system's, i.e. PoE and VueZone. VueZone being...

    Motion blur in B/W mode

    Please do enlighten me on that one. Is that bad? I'm currently running the camera at 1080P anyway. Didn't really see a benefit in additional detail to justify the larger image/file size. Do you have any hands on experience with some good security cams for night usage? TiGeR

    Motion blur in B/W mode

    This sucks. You can already see the blurring before the camera entersB/W mode here. It’s about 25 min before getting dark enough for B/W to kick in. This really baffles me because how can it work during theday and look terrible at night? Isn’t there far less data in a B/W video streamvs color...

    Motion blur in B/W mode

    Ok. I just set the I Frame Interval to 25 FPS to match the numbers inside the Frame Rate window below it. I double checked the E W drop down. No sub menu. I disabled it to see if it would provide a sub, but nothing, so I re-enabled that setting. ill give you a report in about two hours when...

    Motion blur in B/W mode

    I'm trying to understand this :( Ok, please correct me if I'm wrong. You want me to make sure that BI is set at 25 FPS and make the same change to the I Frame Interval correct? It's currently at 100. And your our also suggesting I might want to play around with the Auto E W setting right? The...

    Motion blur in B/W mode

    I have no idea what I'm looking for here and didn't see an option titled exposure. Do any of these screen caps help?

    Motion blur in B/W mode

    Hey folks I'm hoping someone here can explain what might be the cause of motion blur onmoving vehicles when my camera switches into B/W mode.

    SimpliSafe & Blue Iris (A Match made in Heaven)

    I still hold my ground on the awesomeness of SimpliSafe. Yes, their equipment is proprietary, but it’s very affordable,easy to install and works great. Even better is their online alarm configuration tool. Very easy to understand, navigate and setup all your devices. It’s been two years now...

    Can Blue Iris take advantage of two reasonably powerful GPU's running in SLI?

    Hi @fenderman Is that a feature on modern day CPU? I'm running a machine with an i7 -2600K @3.40 GHz. Tiger

    Can Blue Iris take advantage of two reasonably powerful GPU's running in SLI?

    I’m curious… Can Blue Iris take advantage of two reasonably powerfulvideo cards running in SLI or is it 100% reliant on the onboard CPU? Tiger

    Motion and Shadows

    Tree shadows are my worst nightmare. Wouldn't be so bad if we could stop the wind from blowing, but such is life on planet Earth. I myself created a profile to run on windy days. Some areas required me to mask out large sections since the shadows are always moving with Earth's rotation. Tiger

    False triggers from passing clouds

    Your not alone. I have the same issue on a clear day where a few scattered clouds might pass overhead. Sometimes it trips 3 of my cams at the same time. Haven't really figured out how to combat this via BI settings. Anyone have some suggestions? Would love to create a new BI profile just for...

    Need advice on a low cost PoE Dome camera to monitor my driveway.

    LOL you guys. It's war of BI vs NVR :laugh: Well.... I use both and let the NVR manage the 24/7 recording. I don't even bother accessing those boxes because I love using Blue Iris for my daily monitoring, etc. For me it's the software of the GOD's and fun to play with. It also has an...

    Need advice on a low cost PoE Dome camera to monitor my driveway.

    I was going to make the purchase until I noticed the feedback on the sellers (not camera). It's really a bummer that you won't get tech support either unless it's an authorized distributed. WTF. I took a risk and purchased this GW Security Dome instead. It has a manually adjustable Varifocal...

    Need advice on a low cost PoE Dome camera to monitor my driveway.

    Is this the one? Link Never heard of Shinning Brand before. Is there an online USA merchant you might also recommend? In all honesty tho.. I was hoping for a closed dome to make tampering a little more problematic and less intrusive to local spider webs, etc. Tiger

    Need advice on a low cost PoE Dome camera to monitor my driveway.

    Hi guys I need some quick advice. I’m looking to purchase an outdoor dome camera (non-ptz) to monitor my driveway. The driveway accommodates two vehicles and I want to place the camera at the center of the garage door, just below the roofs eve. The height isn’t that great (only about 8.5...

    SimpliSafe & Blue Iris (A Match made in Heaven)

    It's all to easy for a would be burglar to also locate both phone/cable wires leading into most homes. You can try to hide these wires and/or make them harder to gain access to, but in most cases it only delays the inevitable wire snip. I'm pretty confidant that the vast majority of burglars...

    Playback issues from camera night vision mode only

    @fonetik I really think you will enjoy this application. Just give it a chance. It's really that good and the mobile notifications are GREAT. I would also... as @fenderman suggested email BI support. They need to realize what is going on to continue improving their product through all the...

    Release 4.2.3.5 x64 (Video Playback Issues)

    Hi @fenderman I sent Ken a detailed email. I was informed by BI support (prior to purchasing version 4) that Windows 7 wasn't recommended. Apparently they have had some memory leak issues. Windows 8 was the next best choice, but Windows 10 was preferred. That more/less resulted in a no brainer...

    Hey! No problem. I'll send Ken an email on Monday. I'm no guru to this camera tech stuff, but I sure ass hell LOVE Blue Iris. The only reason I upgraded was because version 3 no longer supported iOS app notification alerts. I was so bummed out. I loved Windows 7, but I depend on BI for my...

    Release 4.2.3.5 x64 (Video Playback Issues)

    Ok... Within minutes following the B/W mode change I again tested. Same terrible results. When the camera(s) go B/W the recording playback takes a MAJOR dive. I took your advice and changed a handful of cameras. From the camera(s) properties/video/configure section. I de-selected the "Use...
