    Help with Time Sync for my cameras

    i run a local time server on the blue iris server for the hikvision cameras to sync with , as I block all outbound traffic from my cameras at a router level. They can only talk on the local network. Don't trust the Chinese and what the cameras might be sneakily trying to talk to over the web.

    Possible to setup remote monitor

    Yes it is side loaded onto fire stick. I have settled in using tinycam instead. Much better user experience on a tv based system. Have blue iris on my phone for reviewing clips.

    Firmware Feature requests/bug fixes to send to Huisun

    Add an environmental noise filter to the audio in as per hikvision. The background noise compared to a hik using the same mic is overbearing.

    Possible to setup remote monitor

    I'm a great supporter of blue iris and its mobile app, but you are right, for tv based access using a remote and not a touchscreen., tinycam is certainly a better user interface.

    Can BI be installed on 2 computers but only record on one?

    In short... No, but Ken has said this is in the roadmap for development. In the meantime, this is by far a better offering for the "remote PC" than the standard web interface https://www.ipcamtalk.com/showthread.php/93-I-made-a-better-remote-live-view-page

    I can't stand Huisun!

    Having dealt with the Chinese before, I think it's most likely a language barrier that is losing this in translation, rather than her being rude and pushy. We have a choice, and part of the price point is that we deal with China directly. Maybe we should try and speak chinese and see how we get...
