    Getting audio bleed on web interface on laptop

    That didnt fix it. I am still hearing audio bleed. Also, when I do that, I lose my web interface ability. What I mean by that is when I bring up the UI3 now, it only has 1 camera that comes up.

    Getting audio bleed on web interface on laptop

    On the latest version of BI 5. On my laptop, when I pull up the UI3 interface, I see all 14 cameras. But when I pull up a camera inside the house (single camera view), I still hear a camera outside the house. Does not matter which camera I pull up (inside or outside), I hear the same outside...

    Replacing TeamViewer

    I went with Anydesk. They provided live technical support for me even on the Free version. I have 1 headless server I am working thru on Friday. But everything else working very well.

    Replacing TeamViewer

    Looking to replace Teamviewer. Keeps saying I am using for commercial use, which I'm not. I support my mother, mother in law and 2 remote/unattended servers for camera systems at 2 houses (Blue Iris) and need unattended access. Any suggestions? Would like free or something close like $100 per...

    Trying to get off Port Forwarding Dependency

    OK, so this is confirmed! Dyndns has a "host updater key" (that I don't ever remember generating) and that needs to be used instead of the password associated with my account. Replacing the password with the key on the router DDNS settings should hopefully result in a successful update.

    Trying to get off Port Forwarding Dependency

    1) Im not sure what you may be referring to..... I already have DynDNS setup natively on the Asus Router side (see attached) 2) cron entry on the Asus router that verifies and updates your DynDNS record as the public IP changes. I googled this. Unfortunately, I am on the latest stock version...

    Trying to get off Port Forwarding Dependency

    UPDATED 4/20/24 at 10:19am EST Well, I thought I had this resolved. but now I don't know what the issue is.... Setup: Using Asus Router GT-AX6000 Using the OpenVPN that's part of the router firmware. I'm on the latest version of the Firmware for the router. I am using a Verizon Home Internet...

    Trying to get off Port Forwarding Dependency

    Looks like my issue is around DynUpdater not updating the WAN address correctly. I had to manually tell it to us the existing WAN address

    Keep losing audio from Reolink Doorbell

    So i just figured out.. it applies to both of my Reolink cameras only. If I use the Reolink PC application, I get sound every time. But when I switch to Blue Iris, I don't get sound unless I issue a reboot command to both. If I reboot the camera from either the Reolink PC app or thru Blue...

    Keep losing audio from Reolink Doorbell

    This is a strange one. Maybe my settings... not sure. I have 12 cameras and this is the only one doing this: About once a day I lose audio from the camera thru BlueIris. I lose it thru BI5 both the Android app and the web interface. If I do a "Restart Camera" from BI5, audio comes back, for...

    Trying to get off Port Forwarding Dependency

    Is it correct to assume that when you use a VPN at the router level, that any device in the house doesn't need to run the OpenVPN client side software (64 bit MSI installer). So if I have a laptop running on the LAN inside the house, I don't need it. But if I use the laptop at the airport, for...

    New Reolink Wired POE Doorbell Cam ?

    I do. It doesn't pop the app up. If you are on a lock screen, I see the message pop up on the phone. If I tap on the message, nothing happens. I then unlock the phone and go into Notification Settings, then scroll down to the message and tap it, it then opens the Reolink app up. Too many steps

    New Reolink Wired POE Doorbell Cam ?

    Thanks for the suggestions. I don't know why Reolink just doesn't update their Android and iOS software to allow the app to pop up when the doorbell is pressed. Seems so easy! FYI: I'm using OpenVPN. I just figured out last week how to implement OpenVPN at the Asus router level and turn off...

    New Reolink Wired POE Doorbell Cam ?

    Hello all! I've had this installed since last year. And I know this is a really basic question.. When someone rings the doorbell, I want the Reolink app to pop up on my Android phone so I can immediately talk to the person. Im not sure if this is in the settings? Or is this not part of their...

    Trying to get off Port Forwarding Dependency

    I changed the password when I first setup the router and changed it again last week. I'll change the user name as well. Then I'll make the other changes. Thx

    Trying to get off Port Forwarding Dependency

    Since I have OpenVPN running on the router... Is there a reason to run the OpenVPN client side software (64 bit MSI installer) on the BlueIris server (PC)? The server is never outside the house. Community Downloads - Open Source VPN | OpenVPN

    Trying to get off Port Forwarding Dependency

    So I got this working. The part I was missing is that you have to download the OpenVPN app on the phone side too. So I went to the Google Play Store, downloaded the app. Then you have to export the profile from the OpenVPN built into the Aus router. Then you have to import that file using...

    Trying to get off Port Forwarding Dependency

    4) I am using Verizons 5G Home internet (White Square box) in passthru mode. Because they change their WAN IP frequently I setup a DDNS- DynDNS Pro account (Screenshot attached) Good. You will want to put the DDNS address as your server in the OpenVPN client. So it should look like this but...

    Trying to get off Port Forwarding Dependency

    5) Do I need to change any settings inside the BI5 app itself. Like under Blue Iris Settings, Web Server tab? (Screen shot attached) Yes, you will most likely want to turn off the auto refresh WAN IP and manually set it to the LAN side static IP (192.168.x.x.) in the URL For #5.. please see...

    Trying to get off Port Forwarding Dependency

    On the BI server machine, when I go to ping.eu, it shows: Your IP is 97.149.xxx.xxx (it whos the real numbers, I just masked them so I don't give it out here) If I turn off the OpenVPN button inside the router then run the test again, it shows the same IP address.
