Anyone know of a decent (and preferably free) product to monitor your CPU usage for Windows? Sure... There is Task Manager, but let's get real here. I prefer something that displays in a small window (like Core Temp) that I wouldn't mind running 24/7 on my desktop. Thanks

One of the features I find so awesome and fun with BI is the ability to assign audio files to triggered alarm events. In a lot of ways this gives BI a feeling of having its own version of Microsoft’s very own Cortana. Of course you can’t interact with the BI like Cortana, but it’s real cool...

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...

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. The camera is a GWSecurity 5 Megapixel 2592 x 1920 Pixel Super HD 1920P High Resolution NetworkPoE 1080P Security Bullet IP Camera with 6-22mm Varifocal...

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

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...

Hey guys I'm having difficulties trying to access my cameras via Internet Explorer 11 and Microsoft Edge. I type in their IP address info and the login screen opens asking for the login name and password. I type that in and the browsers seems to be making an attempt at connecting, but nothing...

Hi everyone. It's been quite awhile since I last posted inside here, but the time has come once again for user feedback. I recently upgraded Blue Iris from the older version 3 to the newer version 4. I even upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10 prior to the update to help ensure a smooth...

Hi Guys, I need some expert advice here. :flustered: I would like to begin backing up recorded "Blue Iris" videos files from my PC to a cloud service and/or a local cloud recording device. This is way out of my comfort zone in understanding. Can anyone offer some cost effective recommendations...

Hi guys, I’m ready to start making costume wave files for my Blue Iris application. Has anyone discovered a really good tool for this? What I’m hoping for is something that allows me to select a text-to-voice conversion with the ability to choose from multiple voice formats. I did an internet...

Hi guys, I just recently added a ZmodoZP-1BG11-P (720p) PoE camera to my existing Zmodo 720p setup. . The camera does a pretty good for a budget model, but I’m really missing out on all the details some of you guys are enjoying with higher res cameras. This camera contains a fixed 12mm lens...

Hi guys, Thought some of you might get a chuckle out of this idea/creation I put together today. I created this to protect the rear of the camera from rain, etc. At first I thought this was a stupid idea, but it actually came out better then expected. I used one of those 16oz cans. The...

Zmodo & FunLux (I'm confused). Is this the same company? Has Zmodo sold? Is FunLux a new company? It's all a bit confusing on who makes what anymore. Did Zmodo actually make their own cameras? A little cam history would be great. I've been told that only a few companies actually make the...

If anyone inside this forum can't get enough of Blue Iris, then also consider installing a SimpliSafe Home alarm/monitoring system as an additional fix (Smiles). The SimpliSafe home alarm system is absolutely AMAZING. I've been using it for just over one year now. I'm running 33 alarm devices...

Is it possible to configure Blue Iris to play different sound files on (3) or more different speaker sets without sharing the same sound event through them all at the same time? Example, If someone triggers a camera near the front door, a TV sound will play. If someone triggers a camera near...
