Problem 2 was solved by messing with the Image Format on the Camera Video setup page. I am not sure what exactly I did and how it helped, but it is fixed. It is a mystery to me.

I finally tried the permutions. There were a total of 8 permutations. I got it to work after 5 or six tries.

Great idea, change the widows default fonts! I just took a look at that. Unfortunately it can't happen with a registry edit. I am not even certain that it carry over into Blue Iris. It looks like I will be trying permutations and see what gets accepted.

I was replacing a camera and in the process kinda mucked things up. Added a camera and changed the ethernet LAN in the house, new cables put in a new POE hub. Problem 1: I somehow lost my favorite startup screen. It had the live cameras on the right 2/3 of the screen. The left third of the...

Do the timestamps match? It could be a lot of lag in some of the cameras/

Is it possible to change the fonts in Blue Iris. The passwords for a couple of my cameras contain "O/O" (zero/capitol O) and "I/l" (Capitol I/small L) and I can't tell them apart. Is it possible to change the font so these two pairs of characters are easier to distinguish? I am moving...

I had a lot of issues getting the new ISP service straightened out. I ended up taking my slow wireless/wired router out of the system. It was between my server and the ISP modem. I replaced it with a smart switching hub that goes to the server and the POE hub for the cameras. It was getting...

I am confused. BI is trying to connect using xxx.xxx.xx.179 . The QuantumFiber modem says the IPV4 IP address is xxx.xxx.xx.178. The Net gear router gives a completely different IP Address and Gateway IP Address. These two address are almost identical to each other but differ only by the...

I changed internet service providers and I can no longer access Blue Iris remotely from the net. It is set up so the new connection goes through the old local router, the router connects to the computer (with BI installed) and the Cameras. It still works on the LAN but will not connect over the...

Backing-in is really difficult. It really is a very narrow driveway the goes into an even narrower garage door opening. It's only about 4" of clearance on either side of the side view mirrors at the door. Backing into very narrow spaces is one skill I have lost. I worked for a car rental...

I need to back out of a very narrow drive way with a rock wall one side, a neighbors hedge on the other side and directly across a sidewalk. Little visibility up and down the side walk. I have a pretty loud backup beeper but people will walk behind me anyway. The car already has a backup...

DOH. It is kind a hidden though. Thanks for the help John

I have my screen set to shut down after 10 min in Windows power settings. It is not happening. It is not set for sleep, just shutting down the screen. I am suspicious that BI is preventing this from happening, it is the only active application when the problem occurs. It also seems like it...

Thanks for the advice. Still don't want to give them with information that they don't really need on general principles. If they want to check my ID, I will show them my drivers license. After seeing all the data theft I am a little nervous. It happened in two major hospitals in Seattle...

I was signing up today for a health club membership. They insisted that I need to have a picture on file with them. I said no, they didn't need that information. The guy that I was talking to said they didn't really use it for anything but it was company policy. I am really not happy when...

Thanks I will check VirusTotal. Why should I exclude BI? What kind of problem could it cause if I just leave everything the way it is? Everything works fine.

I have been getting a warning messages from MalwareBytes. I attached one but erased the IP address and the Port. The port it is trying is correct, the IP address is never the same. It references Blue Iris specifically. Can anyone tell me what is going on? MalwareBytes is apparently doing...

Hi I have an odd problem. I am not getting all the Alerts on my BI android app. Of the three cameras on BI, only one is effected. I have the app installed on an android smart phone and an android tablet, both are effected. All the Alerts show up fine in BI on a Win10 desktop PC. This is...

I am unable to delete a clip. The duration of the clip is 0.0seconds. When I try to play it the message "Source file format is corrupt or you are missing components.................." comes up. When I try to delete the message "Could not delete item, it may be protected or in use". It is...

Problem solved. I feel really stupid. I spent hours trying to figure it out. Was that feature in BI4? Thanks

Hi Just upgraded from BI4 to BI5. I have a couple of issues that came up after the upgrade: First issue and a major one: The live screen does not refresh. It shows static images for all of the cams. By static I mean the cam image is like a snapshot. If BI is minimized in Windows and then...

That cleared up a lot of my confusion. Actually I may want both types. I took a look at the links you provided. I am still not entirely clear what the problems with the home network VPN services are. If I understand it the problems are that they keep logs that can be leaked and some have...

Hi I am thinking of installing a VPN, mainly for secure/anonymous internet browsing, on my home machine and want to make sure I know what I am getting into. I am running BI4 on that machine and it has been flawless for a few years. I am using it for remote monitoring from an android smart...

Hi I have had a OnePlus 6T connecting remotely on WAN through the BI Android app (4.8.4.3) for a couple of years. I added a Samsung Tab A 8.4 tablet with the identical BI set up but I am having trouble getting a reliable connection. The tablet will connect for two or three times immediately...

I just purchased an A119v3 to replace an A119 that got old and started acting funny. The video on the V3 is MUCH better than the older dashcam. Especially at night. One problem is it takes a long time for the GPS information to actually show up on the video. Sometimes a few minutes of...

I was thinking of upgrading to BI 5. That may be a good time to reconfigure the system. I need to do some homework.

Hi I need some help understanding the "Blue Iris Status". I am using BI Version 4 and accessing it with the Android App. In the BI Message Log it shows a log in and log off using the WAN and the LAN from the Android app. I also see connections to a Blue Iris server. I am concerned about...

I had another camera at 192.168.1.108. I took it off and ConfigTool still can't find the new camera.

Hi I am adding a new Dahua Hfw4433m-I2 to my network. I tried using ConfigTool to find them cameras and do some initial set up. It failed to find the new camera. As a test, I replaced a known good camera (a HFW4431m-I2) with the new one and ConfigTool failed to find it. The search used the...

I connect to BI using two different phones over WAN. Both set up identical. Some times both work, sometimes neither work, sometimes one works and the other doesn't. I go back and do a reset using the Remote Access Wizard, usually it fixes the problem. Has anyone else had the problem and...
