Driving in Reverse? WTF?
Maybe he recently watched a tiktok or youtube video with a vehicle whose body was mounted in reverse and thought it was cool. Those videos are actually pretty hilarious.- bp2008

Forum technical problems getting bad?
Hard to say exactly what is wrong unless Mike has said before. It does not feel like a hardware issue though and I'd think Mike would have already moved it to different hardware if he thought that would matter. My best guess is buggy forum software. Lots of software is fine and stable during... -
Auto-Maximize in UI3 - How to cycle between multiple simultaneous alerts?
Not possible without modifications to UI3 which I am not very interested in. I can explain why it works the way it works today. My thought process in designing this feature was something like this. I could make UI3 be eager to swap to newly triggered/alerted/etc cameras, or I could make it... -
Question About BI in different locations (how to view in different locations)
I can't understand your question exactly and you are not answering my questions. I give up. -
Question About BI in different locations (how to view in different locations)
Ok, and we'll assume you got the windows firewall rule added correctly. So can you verify that your zerotier network shows more than one member? -
Question About BI in different locations (how to view in different locations)
Is the device (the one you entered the URL on) listed in your Zerotier members section? Try entering the same URL into a web browser on the Blue Iris machine. If it doesn't load there, then you are not constructing the URL correctly. Devices only appear in the Members list when Zerotier is... -
Your comments on this =>MileFlask: The Ultimate Long-Range Security Solution
It looks like the only significant thing this offers over existing wifi battery powered cameras is longer wireless range. Probably usable only via their mobile app and reliant on their cloud services still being online. I wouldn't buy it expecting more than a few years before they shittify the...- bp2008

Blue Iris Turning Itself off (exiting program) on pc by itself?
Blue Iris is unfortunately prone to crashing. You should go to Blue Iris Settings > Startup and have Blue Iris run as a Windows service. This will make it automatically restart when it crashes so you don't lose much time. -
Question About BI in different locations (how to view in different locations)
Ok, there are several things that could be wrong. Before anything else, go to Blue Iris web server settings and determine which port number it is listening on. I will assume it is port 81 because that is the default. Then, do each of these things: 1. On the Blue Iris machine, open Windows... -
BlueIris - file operation when moving recordings?
You would need to ask Blue Iris support. To determine what is doing all the disk IO you see in your proxmox graph, open Task Manager within Windows and look at the Processes tab, or open Resource Monitor and look at the Disk tab.- bp2008

[SOLVED] BlueIris cannot detect Tailscale tunnel when PC reboots
Eew. That is awful. And it is the kind of bug where if you report it, even in the unlikely event they decide to do something about it, it will take years to happen.- bp2008

Was looking into mini computer for a new Blue iris build. Thoughts on this
These mini PCs mostly seem to be produced in small batches so they pop up and go out of stock all the time. Here's the only one from my order history that is still in stock and it was fine for me, running as a little proxmox server for virtual machines. If I was going to run Blue Iris I'd... -

@Hellurei there's no built-in way to hide those sections. You can enlarge a few things via these two UI settings: -
Was looking into mini computer for a new Blue iris build. Thoughts on this
$168 is a steep price for N150. They can be had closer to $125 most days though it may mean making it an N100 (basically the same CPU just a little older) or having 1 Gbps LAN instead of 2.5 Gbps. Just have to be careful with the specs. Some have more M.2 SSD slots than others, some have a... -
[SOLVED] BlueIris cannot detect Tailscale tunnel when PC reboots
Is that actually a problem though? As far as I know, that dropdown box has no effect unless you are using "Bind exclusively". Anyway via Windows' Services control panel, you should be able to change the Blue Iris service from Automatic start to Automatic (Delayed Start), which should make the...- bp2008

Web Page Access
Delete the port forwarding rule you created in your router. If you did not create one, then it may have happened automatically via a feature like "UPNP" or "NAT-PMP" (not sure if Blue Iris supports these). Anyway those are features you should turn off in your router if you can find them. -
Can 1 cat5e power two ip cams?
The one you bought does not support PoE. There should be plenty that would work if you look here: Amazon.de : poe passthrough switch Not everything in amazon search results will be compatible. You need specifically something that has PoE input and PoE output. It may say PoE extender or PoE...- bp2008

Blue Iris UI3
@TheWaterbug I'm glad it is working better now. Ken was recently doing some work on web-served timeline streaming code to fix various issues with seeking, so if this issue was only affecting UI3's timeline tab, that may have been highly related. Failures like that are awful! One of the things... -
Blue Iris renewal mandatory now?
Yup, the current remote update capability is extremely primitive. UI3 knows only the version number of the available update e.g. "5.9.9.65". Nothing else. Not any kind of release notes, release date, other available version numbers, etc. Just the one version number of the update that Blue... -
Blue Iris renewal mandatory now?
Please complain to BI support about this. This feature (BI telling web clients when an update is available) was added 3 months ago, and I warned Ken about this possible issue way back at that time, asking him to not tell the web client about updates newer than the support expiration date. I... -

is POE++ a reliable option?
If it works for two, then it should work for three as long as the total power used by the 3 cameras does not exceed the capability of the power source.- bp2008

is POE++ a reliable option?
There are 3 issues I think. 1. The NVR might not be able to provide enough power for 3 cameras via one port. 2. The NVR software may not support multiple cameras data coming in one port. 3. The splitter you pictured above doesn't mention PoE on it.- bp2008

UI3 Streaming Quality
The stutter/pause every second is due to Blue Iris needing more time to process i-frames, so I think it ends up screwing up the frame timing or possibly dropping a frame or two after each iframe when transcoding for the web server. I think there is nothing you can do about that except using the... -

UI3 Streaming Quality
Somehow Blue Iris thinks your "low res" cam's sub stream is the same resolution as the main stream. And yet that one appears as low resolution. Very strange. You should check that the camera is still configured as shown in the two screenshots above (which is a good configuration). If the... -

If you right click the video and choose stats for nerds, it will show you the video stream resolution, bit rate, etc which is very helpful for troubleshooting.
