    Server recommendations? 50-64 cameras - some 4pm cameras

    Thanks fenderman - I always appreciate your input. But what if I HAD to stay with Blue Iris? :) Blue Iris advertises it can do 64 cams - so what kind of system would I be looking at?

    Server recommendations? 50-64 cameras - some 4pm cameras

    I'm looking for a really beefy server build recommendation. Preferably something I can purchase from CDWG (School district needs). We've currently got around 50 cameras (most old axis cameras) and a few newer axis cameras running on a custom built i7-7700k w/16gb ram and 12TB of space. The...

    Battery operated smart camera - any way to get it to work with Blue Iris?

    Well you're just a bundle of joy. I'm a lurker of these forums for years and I have to post and say I find your comments unattractive and fiendish. Everyone starts somewhere - people don't dive head first into Axis products. Foscam's aren't horrible. Sorry if you're having a bad day - but...

    Battery operated smart camera - any way to get it to work with Blue Iris?

    Sheesh man go easy on me. I said the build quality, as it really is a sturdy little device with a massively powerful magnet. And when viewing it on my iPad - the app sucks and isn’t iPad formatted but the video does look good in 1080p mode. I’d say It’s a decent picture comparable to my...

    Battery operated smart camera - any way to get it to work with Blue Iris?

    What does this link mean exactly? The camera really does work and it’s a nice mounting system and good build quality for sure. I’d leave a really positive review if I didn’t use Blue Iris I guess... but I live in blue iris and don’t want a two camera system setup. Ya know?

    Battery operated smart camera - any way to get it to work with Blue Iris?

    I’d be ok leaving it plugged in if someone had a firmware that enabled these features... pointless probably but the camera was free to me, so I’m trying to figure out how to use it.

    Battery operated smart camera - any way to get it to work with Blue Iris?

    The camera I purchased is here: Amazon.com : Wireless Rechargeable Battery Powered Security Camera YXwin 1080P HD Indoor/Outdoor 6000mAh Home Surveillance WiFi Camera with Motion Detection Two-Way Audio Night Vision : Camera & Photo I'd love to get this working with BI... but the company is...

    Can remote management work without administrative rights?

    Will this BI5 upgrade work as a workstation endpoint connection to see multiple cameras in playback at the same time? (Native app can playback all cameras at once, whereas the web interface all of our users connect with, only allow one camera at a time for remote playback) I tried giving a...

    Embed credentials on Blue Iris Web Server URL

    If I disable that - it doesn't even ask for a username or password at all...? Is that expected behavior? Tried on a brand new VM that's never even logged into BI at all... (not passing username or password, just let me right into the camera feed). I have "Require from" set to "All...

    Embed credentials on Blue Iris Web Server URL

    Where is the "Secure only" option located in recent versions of Blue Iris? Was it renamed? I'm trying to pass credentials to login to ui3.htm as well as a direct camera feed and it does not work... http://server.domain.com:8081/ui3.htm?user=admin&pw=password It takes us to our login page...

    BlueIris on your TV!

    I NEED to know more about this... quick app switch into BI to see who's at the front door would be awesome.

    I made a better remote-live-view page [OLD]

    I can see where you're coming from. It just felt like a complete solution to have all the servers tied together and the login process being automatic without delay, etc. The bookmark/cookies never carried between devices anyway - but once it was setup for our users, everyone was quite happy.

    BP2008 - thanks for all your years of hard work on this. I see UI3 is available with the latest version of blue iris. Will you be discontinuing UI2 development then? The "Blue Iris Tools" program also removed the button to update the UI2 files now... In our business we have six blue iris...

    Blue Iris UI3

    It just doesn't feel as complete of a package that way :( Oh well... thanks for your hard work. Maybe Ken can tie servers together anyway and it'll be a mute point...?

    Blue Iris UI3

    Is this because of something Ken plans on changing? We have six servers we use right now and use the multiserver thing religiously. Any reason for leaving it out? :(

    Where is the multi-server option?

    I made a better remote-live-view page [OLD]

    Yes I think I found it - and even though secure only is disabled - as long as it's using the stunnel port, it should be ok, no? httpS://server.fqdn.com:stunnelport/ui2.htm?user=user&pw=password

    I made a better remote-live-view page [OLD]

    Hey bp - is there a way to pass a username and password along in the URL line for a direct connection (wanted to setup an IPTV URL Feed for my nVidia Shield TV). Will it work with STunnel?

    I made a better remote-live-view page [OLD]

    I hate to be a bother today - but now that I've changed my setup that only 2 days of video is saved in the "new" folder, and the rest are moved to "stored" - the clips view of UI2 only show the clips in the "new" folder... is this a setting I can change to have it show all clips still, or will...

    Figured it out - overlays still work in live view, but aren't recorded.

    I made a better remote-live-view page [OLD]

    OK so I went into Blue Iris, picked a cam, properties -> record -> Format and compression -> Direct to Disc Is this the only setting I need to change? I ask because my overlay of date and time is still there?

    I made a better remote-live-view page [OLD]

    We have BI set to create a new clip on each event so we can FF directly to the next motion event. So our clips start at really wonky times and the adjustment mathematics would probably be too much for some of our staff to care ;) But yes, I did see that and realize that's an option - thanks...

    I made a better remote-live-view page [OLD]

    Is D2D that much faster? Is it just overlays that don't work? We're in the process of setting up our org with 160 cameras and 6 blue iris servers right now - trying to find the best way to do it all... Some of our cameras are VERY old and might not even have a legible way to see the time...

    I made a better remote-live-view page [OLD]

    Hi Bob, yes I see a scrubber - but I meant a scrubber that illustrated what time the clip was being recorded/played back at. So if it was 3:05pm in the clip, I was wondering if there was a way the scrubber could show that or have a search/goto box to take me directly to that time of the recording.

    I made a better remote-live-view page [OLD]

    Well right now there is a date search field - but what about an hour/minute search field? For example, we know an incident occurred at 12:45pm today, so we want to go straight to that time or at least to the clip containing that time period. I don't see a way to do that in UI2 and it's...

    I made a better remote-live-view page [OLD]

    Does the UI2 clip list show just the clips in the "new" folder, and not the "stored" folder path? I think that might be the easy fix if that is the case - right now we have them all writing into the "new" folder which is overwhelming I think. Separate question: There isn't a way to implement a...

    I made a better remote-live-view page [OLD]

    Hi BP - We have hundreds of thousands of clips on one of our servers - the list takes a very long time to load, and while it is processing, all of the cameras freeze video while the clips lists loads. That means any other users who are viewing video get a frozen screen of cameras while the...

    Presets for axis camera on Blue Iris

    OK Get this... kind of figured it out, but it's pretty weird. When using 0, it says RTSP: 400 bad request. When using 1, it works fine as the fisheye view. When using 2, it works fine as the panorama view. When using 3, it says RTSP: 400 bad request. When using 4, it says RTSP: 400 bad...

    Presets for axis camera on Blue Iris

    I have mine setup the exact same way now, on the latest 6.30.1.1 firmware, and it still doesn't work, however now there is no error, just says "no signal" like the camera is offline?
