I have had BI for about 2 years. All cams were wireless Wansview cameras (which I like and never had issues with). Running all 9 cams wireless, I had to drop resolution. I finally got around to hardwiring all the cams and now need to proceed to my next step. I am fairly new to Automation and...

I am trying to run the watchdog in BI to do the following: after 5 timeouts (set to 60 seconds per timeout) - Restart camera after 10 timeouts - Reboot camera, if possible after 15 timeouts, execute script to reboot server. I have everything set up, what I believe to be correct, but upon...

I have attempted, on 12 android devices, to keep it running all night on my nightstand. I also have tablets mounted at each door entry for monitoring. In every case i have enabled dev options to keep from sleeping while charging. About 98% of the time, the app crashed to the desktop by morning...

Just wanted to post some information about an 18 month issue I've had which seems resolved. I have 9 Wansview cams, 3 models, the k1, q1 ptz, and outdoor (k3 i think). I know some have do not like them, but they have great quality and reliability for the price. i have them all wireless (again, i...

Is there any way to set zones so two zones need to be active to trigger? For example I have a horizontal line at 2ft and 5ft., when someone walks it triggers, but light or shadows on only one zone does not trigger it. It seems if i put AB either zone triggers. If I put "A+B", it behaves like...

My install of BI was recording to the system drive, which I only had 30gb of the SSD available. The bottom of the console would read, for example, clips: 4,000 files 28gb/30gb. I added a secondary internal drive, routed the DB, log, clips, etc (everything in the C:\Blueiris folder to...

I am sure I am overlooking something simple. I can not get a cam to go to position 1 with profile 1 and position 2 with profile 2. I can get it to auto-patrol in either profile, but just not get a static position. Any idea what I am not seeing here? Thanks.

I know there have been other threads regarding this, bit some went hostile and none had any results. I have, minimally, 8 android devices. They all freeze at some point when viewing "All Cams" and cycling. Has anything ever come of this issue? Is there a workaround (and no, not a non-BI...

I have a camera, named "Front Door", I created a clone named "Front Door 2" (yes original ;-)). When looking at the status window, front door show 0 kb/s and front door 2 shows 50kb/s. Is the clone now the primary camera for the stream? Should I set my watchdog reboot command on that camera and...

I am attempting two BI setups. The first (main) BI setup is for motion triggering/alarms and notifications (to app and email). The second setup uses the same camera feeds, but it for motion recording only (with a lower trigger threshold than system 1). I am trying to accomplish alarm triggering...

I think I am just overlooking a setting, but how do I get my PTZ cameras to go to position 1 following a reboot?

Can anyone give me a hand? Running "http://192.168.1.200:81/hy-cgi/device.cgi?cmd=sysreboot&user=12345&pwd=67890" works to reboot my cams. Running it through cURL I get an unauthorized 401 error. When any of my cameras drop in BI, they are still viewable with other software, hence they can be...

I may have posted this in the wrong spot, so re-posting here. I wanted to know if there was a way to accomplish a type of 3D spacial triggering. I'll try to explain a scenario for clarity. Say I have a 40' x 40' room. The door is on the north wall, centered. Cameras (2) are on the south wall...

My current setup is using BI. I had the laptop (BI Server) next to my bed to alert me. However, the light from the laptop (even at it's dimmest) is too intrusive. I want to move the server to a more hidden location, but need a bedside monitoring solution that is just as quick as the server...

Wanted to know if there was a way to accomplish 3D triggering. I'll try to explain a scenario for clarity. Say I have a 40' x 40' room. The door is on the north wall, centered. Cameras (2) are on the south wall (centered, elevation of 5') and east wall (again, centered, elevation of 5'). If I...

Every since installing BI, I have had intermittent issues with live feeds freezing. Sometime 1 of the 6 cameras, sometimes all 6, at the same timestamp on the feeds. I use Wansview cameras, two models, 2 PTZ and 4 fixed. When BI freezes the video, I can start the Wansview app and everything is...

I have used Android phones as cameras on many applications. Some of them work pretty well! The LG G2 has great low light and good picture quality, so I want to get them working in Blue Iris (just purchased, but had issues setting them up in the eval version also). I am using Wansview K1 cams as...

Glad to join everyone! I am using the demo of Blue Iris and set up two wansview K1 cameras. Everything is working great and I'll have a ton of questions to set up everything once I pull the trigger and purchase (mostly app push notifications). In the meantime... I have an issue setting up an LG...
