They do have a built in sensor that works well. Had mine a couple years now, so far so good.

Seriously? lol... A multi million facility counting on a 60 dollar a year program to monitor safety and security? That person might need to be demoted for even thinking about it. Not that Blue Iris wouldn't "potentially" work, but that's likely a bit of a stretch to expect perfection in that...

Same version here with no issues. I was being anal and looking for a new version myself, and you're right. Don't fix what isn't broke.

I sure wish they covered more of the floor and less of the ceiling. I've tried shimming mine at the top to experiment, but looks tacky. Mine are both mounted on single gang boxes and hang over the bottom as it is. lol , I have another Dahua pointed down to see packages, so that makes up for...

Awesome. I do think that did it! Been up running with no drop out all night and all day now :) Thank you!! I have the new firmware that disappeared running, and currently have the "make" set to ONVIF instead of the Reolink as you have it. Seems I do not have a substream available that way. Any...

Has anyone noticed the after a while Blue Iris is not allowed (or loses) a connection to audio on these cams? Like maybe the cam audio goes to sleep? Video is fine. I can usually solo the cam and hear audio, then I may go back and it's gone. Sometimes it's gone for recordings as well. If I...

Was pondering grabbing a different illuminator earlier and thought I'd come here and check what was being used. Glad I did! :)

Certainly agreed. I always wait on updates to see if folks are saying anything. He's certainly made it easy enough to try an update, and go back if there's issues. So, I update, try to iron it out this situation with what I suppose is my less than adequate understanding of the finer points...

Sad when most people just don't have the time to master this stuff. I have a business and a ton of obligations to run and am here late on a Saturday trying to get the cam system to work in a way I can use it haha. When it worked awesome previously. Not a power user. I don't use groups and...

I ordered this one from Amazon Prime, and I thought I'd get a fast ship. I was wrong, lol. Past orders I've made with Andy shipping from overseas using DHL were actually faster than Amazom was. lol. I hadn't bought this camera before, so with Amazon it would have been simpler to potentially...

I just bought one last week at 75ish off amazon from Andy's store. Great quality cam for the price. Just went to buy a couple more on Amazon, and they are out. :( Reading the thread, I may have to update firmware.

3-4 updates later, it is now fixed thanks!!

I have a monitor running with a home automation browser window open, and 9 Blue Iris camera feeds from the local BI program that are set as "open in a desktop frame" It's on an i7 2nd gen machine with win10. Dedicated to Blue Iris and a browser display of home automation misc. Always ran fine...

Somehow, mine upgraded with no issue I've found yet. Win10, i7 4770. Only think I've noticed is motion sensing seems to more sensitive now. Maybe a setting changed (nothing I noticed tho) or likely something improved within the software and I've had a lot of false alerts. But, just needed...

I gotta say... Considering the low cost of this outstanding VMS (you won't beat it), the frequent updates, and the care/attention Ken puts into taking care of customer issues, the yearly plan to support the developer is a deal. I'm ok with paying just to help support him.

Appears I've found the issue.... Which might be I'm just stupid, or careless. But wait, there's more............. Recently my router hiccupped and lost settings, it was storming that night so, maybe something to do with that. So, I halfassedly reset stuff in the middle of the night and...

Using Fing on that network, no packet loss while it was stop motion. Other Dahuas on the network are at 2 average, 10 max ping. and not 423! I have not yet pinged it during a longer shutdown. It was however doing the above stop motion/ audio issue on my desk with a pre-made cable and a...

Hi Andy, thank you for commenting. I was planning to do a hard reset, but on your advice, I did that this morning. Left it at default settings, other than IP, network time and overlay, and password, It seems to be still doing the stop motion thing. I watch the clock overlay coming from the...

Hmm, as of today, I see it's been cycling offline for 1-10 minutes with 18 no signals today per Blue Iris. May just be having a hardware issue. :(

I have one of the Dahua HDW5231R-ZE units and I'm experiencing an issue where if someone walks past or a car drives across the field of view, at some point in the travel, the camera freezes motion and stops audio for a moment and then continues picking up again wherever the subject is when the...

My recent units are perfect. Thank you Andy @EMPIRETECANDY

Excellent advice, thanks! I'm probably obsessive about trying to find appropriate placement to make the most effective use of the cams. But, hate to see them damaged. Which has happened in the past n one area. Sometimes, it's just the cost of doing business I reckon. Yes, I'm slowly...

Oh, no doubt best practice. Sadly, placement is always a dilemma here in the "hood". In a few areas like the floodlight mentioned above, they're mounted higher than I'd like since the local actors would try to pry it off the wall or smash it :( I'm waiting for my porch/eye level front...

Seems if they see them, here in CLE OH, they're brazen and just hide their faces. I like to surprise them. But these are certainly hard to hide, lol. I put one up with some floodlights above it to make it potentially look like a fancy motion sensing yard light to the casual mope that...

That's perfect! Thanks!.........

Obviously, DYNDNS does nothing to cloak browsing. I was using it in the past to get back to my cameras before I started running Blue iris server, just kept using it. As I said, the paid VPN cloaks my browsing.... from my ISP. And was under the impression that using that while accessing...

Mostly to cloak my browsing. DYNDNS was 40 a year, and AirVPN was 50. Roughly does the same and has teh VPN. I realize that the way it is setup security is not there. Although I REALLY neeed to get up to speed with secure VPN, I'm not fully understanding the techniques of it all yet. I'm...

I use AirVPN. They have many servers I can connect to. So.. Yhey have a DYNDNS type of service, where you use a "yourname.airdns.org" that follows you regardless of what server of theirs you are connected to, in order to maintain a sort of virtual static IP. I realize blue iris pings as well...

Seems the last couple months, not sure how long in relation to updates, Blue Iris Android, has been very slow to bring cams up once it connects or maneuver between them. And sometimes, it's also slow to connect. Doesn't seem to matter whether it is WAN, or WiFI LAN. Used to be very quick. But...

Exactly. I used to use DYNDNS to keep what is essentially static connection to the dynamic IP I have. But they have gone downhill and their app is totally whacked these days. A year of AIrVpn, was like 15 dollars more than a year of DYNDNS. and AirVpn immediately follows you as you change...
