Can you run Chrome on a android device? I do you chrome on my laptop and it works great reading the BI stream but wanted to use low cost android streaming boxes. Leonard

Yeah I pulled up the TinyCam after your last comment and will likely give that a try.. I guess worst case I can go with one of the $100 mini pcs running W10 and just view on chrome like I do on my laptop. Thanks again for your time and help. Leonard

Veert: Thank you for spending your time getting that info. Does seem to explain how this little computer seem to fail/disconnecct as restarting the app and everything is great until next time. I do have one that seems to never drop the app except when we lose power but this chinese junk does...

Veert: Have I think a similar problem. I run BI on a dedicated W10 machine in a secure vault so I cannot see the display. So to monitor cams around our farm I have tried to use these cheap android computers running the Mobile App to output HDMI. It works ok but every morning it seems they...

I have a 12 camera system on farm and use both wired and wireless ethernet to connect them. To have monitoring a several locations I use a low cost (read chinese) wireless android computer stick with hdmi output and run the BI Mobile app on them. I also have two that are wired ethernet. My...

This is one of the little stick android units so no display or touchscreen. Yes the scroll wheel will move between the three camera options and a Group option that all appear when BI opens but I cannot find a way to scroll down to more Groups and Camera Views.

Using BI mobile for android in a usb stick computer to drive a monitor. I control the stick computer using a laptop type ball mouse and my problem is that I cannot scroll through individual cameras or the multiple Groups I have. This has prevented me from selecting the Group I want. Have tried...

Thanks Fenderman, I kind of feel like doing a polish head slap as I now remember noting that when I first set up the groups per your help. Thanks again for reminding me, will add to my BI setup notes. Leonard

Fenderman: Advise on using Groups worked great, Thank You. Now another question, how do I delete a group. Have tried highlighting and Right click but nothing. I searched forum and BI help but nothing there either. Actually I should say how do i delete a camera from an existing group so I can...

Yes I am using wireless (only because I have to, prefer wired.)because these little PCs only have one usb input and no ethernet input. I am using the usb for a touchpad mouse. Is the auto log setting in the mobile App somewhere. Joe limited the dhcp to .159 up so that is the range. He will be...

Fenderman: Is there a time limit or something on a remote connection. I just came back in and the mobile app had closed on the mini pc. Hope that is not normal or this whole approach will be screwed as i need these to always be on. I have eleven cameras running, some 1080P and most at...

Thanks Fenderman. I figured out the part on groups and meant to email you to save you time replying but wife brought me lunch in so got delayed. I know how to set a static IP in the computers ethernet connection, would that work. If not I will have m son do the router over xmas vacation. i can...

Have played with group some. I can select a camera, go to group, and type in a group name and it add and then ok. When I open group again and type in a second name and hit add it shows both group names but are both highlighted in blue and I hit ok again. When I exit and cone back only one name...

This is getting a little over my head but with BI mobile I had to get the IP address from the server running BI by clicking on Globe. Does that address stay the same if server loses power. Other words is the address set by the router. Also I found the group settings where you create a group...

I tried IP Cam Viewer but had a lot of trouble getting it to connect to my no name chinese cameras. I did find a program for android called Onvifer that uses the Onvif standard to locate cameras and it worked great and is still free. Problem is it is pretty limited on screen layout and the...

Sorry Fenderman, gray matter failed. I do not find anything in help contents about camera groups. Are you talking about Profiles maybe.

Thanks Fenderman, as usual you're always very helpful. I will apply my limited gray matter to trying that. Leonard

I just purchased the BI android amp to use with a android mini PC for viewing only on Lan around home. Does it only let you view either one full screen camera or all your cameras. I had assumed (yeah I know I should not.)it would have at least some layout options as I only want either two or...

I have checked that a bunch of times. Also as I said I get response using IE and ONVIF Device Manager. That is why I am confused and out of options. It was working before i went to bed and dead (blue iris image that is.)when I got up. Have deleted camera several times and re-installed but no...

Hey guys I have had a Seculink camera running for about a week using:8554/live0.264 in blue iris. I ran ONVIF device manager and this path is what it shows. Question is BI has stopped displaying this camera. I have tried another known good Seculink camera and same result. I can get an image i...

I did F12 but find nothing I understand. Says something like Decom and below text first line is <html lang="en" itemtype="http://schema.org/WebPage" itemscope=""><head><meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge"><meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html...

Morning Fenderman: As you likely gathered when I talked about the Raspberry Pie being used to display cameras on hdmi tv, that I am new to this whole IP cam thing (this is for my own home only.) and am not horribly gifted with networking and advanced computer setup so please bear that in mind...

Purchased three chinese cameras from Securlink in New York on Ebay. Thought this was a US company selling these cameras but apparently just a shipping location as all customer service and tech support (there actually isn't any.) is in China so everyone beware. Nice cameras and have logged into...

I purchased 3 used Hikvision DS-2CD863F-E Cameras and have no problem installing them in Blue Iris and they work fine. Problem is if I try to connect to them using IE (with I believe Netsurveyer) and have tried CMS also. The web page with login appears but it appears to not being displayed...

Actually it displays four cameras just fine. Not sure what the resolution was. My son had the Pie pulling four cameras directly off our wired ethernet and outputing on HDMI to our flat screen. He is supposed to get it working for me but like I said he is really really busy. Also he hates doing...

That sounds close to what I need. I appreciated Fendermans comments but I really do not want to have any kind of keyboard or anything else computerise in those buildings. What I had asked my son for was a RPI program that would allow me to enter the IP address and Video Path of the four cameras...

I did not download it but in reading the features and a couple reviews it looks like you need a phone or some other interface to step between cameras at full screen. Two of the three locations i need this at are fairly rough shop buildings and all I want there is the display unit, a button to...

Does not look like this software will do what I want. Not surprising since it is primarily intended for mobile phone use. I will continue to look and have written Ken at Blue Iris suggesting this would be a great addition for him to do. Seems a lot of people with residental systems what to have...

Well my son had a Pie connected here a few months ago and was able to display four cameras off Ethernet (wired, had to many problems with wifi) but it is not user friendly for someone with limited computer knowledge (I'm 66). He is working on his Phd in Computers and can obviously do it but is...

Thanks yet again, I will try that tomorrow. I remember having problems related to the useless Active x before. Good Night
