After the latest update, while viewing clips, BI doesn't stay zoomed. I have a few cameras that not only monitor an area close to a building but I also use them to keep an eye on things in the background. I have always been able to zoom in on an area and BI would maintain that zoom from one clip...

Thank you! This definitely solved the delay I was having.

Right after I added my comment I noticed the post by plomaris regarding WAN and LAN encoder profiles. I set mine to CBR 1024 kbps and did a test trigger. Notification popped up, I clicked on it and it opened instantly. There is also no more delay when just opening a camera. I love this forum. It...

I too have the same problem. I have a Galaxy S10 Plus and when I get a motion alert notification I click on it which in turn loads the BI app. It takes a long time to load the clip that I received the notification about. Sometimes it won't even load the clip, I have to go to the alerts list and...

I deleted (renamed) my DB yesterday and started from scratch as well. I also changed my allocation settings as I was allocating 2 TB to the "Stored" folder that I am not even using. As of this morning I have no errors on clips, all clips are there as they should be and the clip storage screen...

I have my DB on the secondary drive rather than on the local C drive. Would it be best to have the DB on C? I'm not exactly clear on how BI handles the alerts. I am only using the New folder, I do not save images of the alerts (but I do have thumbnails of them in the tree when everything is...

I am using a secondary internal drive for the database and data storage. I installed that drive 4 or 5 months ago and had no issues with this configuration until the last couple of updates. Edit: Not sure if this helps any but I can go through an entire day with no issues and it seems like the...

I agree with you in that I would absolutely upgrade to 5 again. I'm fine with some bugs needing to be worked out. It is still a great piece of software for the price. I am currently on version 5.0.2.4 but still having the random issues that others are seeing. Hopefully it will all get sorted out...

This was after my rebuild of the DB this morning so of course it isn't showing an error now.

I saw that thread before I posted mine, it says solved but I haven't been able to get my issue fixed from anything I have read there. Backed up a copy of my database this morning and let it build from scratch. It's still not bringing the alerts back. I haven't changed anything in the allocation...

I've also tried deleting the database and rebuilding. Problem came back for me. Not sure what's going on but I have a 6T drive and only 1T is being used at the moment. Should be no issue of hard drive space. The weird thing is that it's not deleting "old" clips to make room for new ones. The...

This problem started two updates ago. Some of my alerts will open with no problem at all and some give me the error "Sorry, file could not be found". I record continuous in 1 hour segments as well as the motion alerts. When I switch to the 1 hour segments after getting this error on alerts, I...

I am also having issues as of the last two updates. It started with all of my alerts disappearing for about 24 days. I record in one hour segments as well as use motion alerts. The one hour segments were still showing in the tree yesterday. This morning there were 5 hours of segments missing...

Thanks for the info. I have not messed with using macros in BI before. I may give this a try when I get a moment.

Thank you. It's not a major issue. Just something I was wondering about :)

Is it possible to use profiles to have a different text overlay for day time and night time? I would like to use a white font during night hours and black during the day. I've tried doing this but I'm not sure text overlay is something that can be set independently in seperate profiles.

Anyone else ever had the motion area change for a camera? I have a certain area for zone A and hotspot marked off. This never changes. When I enabled "test run video through motion detector" I noticed the masked areas were not the same as normal. I went into the camera properties and looked at...

Not sure what is causing this but my BL is losing clips that I had marked as flagged and protected. It doesn't seem to be doing it for all clips though. I noticed the problem this morning. Two days ago I flagged and protected a clip of a bear and today when I was scrolling through the thumbnails...

Wow I feel like an idiot :facepalm: I knew there had to be an option to do that but I was looking on the screen that is used to setup the actual push alerts to a device. Sorry I should have looked closer. Thanks so much!

Is there any way to set up BI to only send me a push alert for one or two masked areas of a zone, perhaps by using some modified profile configuration? In other words I would like for BI to send me a push alert only for certain areas of a zone. I want to continue using motion triggering to...

I downloaded the app update last night and my push notifications are once again working. While the sound issue is a bit annoying, I can deal with that. As long as I am at least getting notified when one of my cameras detects motion, that's the biggest thing for me. I also noticed the "Channel...

Please update me on their response. Just noticed my maintenance / support is expired. I need to renew that but I am also curious as to what they tell you. Thanks!

I updated about an hour ago. BL currently states it is at version 4.7.6.15 but I still have the same issue. When I attempt to test I still get the "test message sent to 0 devices" message.

I have not experienced the app crashing or as others have mentioned not being able to view my cameras. All of that works fine. I'm hoping the push notifications are part of the known issue and will be resolved soon. Thank you!

Hopefully I am posting this to the right area. My push notifications have stopped working. I have the most current version of Blue Iris installed on my computer and the most current update from google play for my android app. Android updated yesterday and they seemed to have stopped working...

I'm getting the same alert from Norton. When I do a IP whois lookup for the destination address, it is in China. That always concerns me.

Thank you for this information! In the last few weeks I was having trouble with my BlueIris app not connecting. I have the allowed connections set to only 1 and it would tell me maximum number of allowed users reached. I have the ability to connect to my BlueIris server remotely from work so I...

Awesome. thank you!

Does anyone know of a way to use profiles to change camera settings? As far as I know, profiles can only be used to schedule recording settings. I was wondering if there is a way to use a profile to change actual camera settings such as brightness and contrast. I have to adjust my camera's...

Thanks! On my budget, I have to stick with the cheap ass cameras but they do what I need them to lol. The movement isn't a big deal now that I know it's common among the cheaper cameras.
