    Why are there so many updates?

    It seems like there is an update every day or two. I have never seen this from any other software. Not that's a big problem. but updating the program every day doesn't seem. practical. Am I missing something?

    Minor config issue

    Every time I restart BI one camera opens in desktop frame. Sometime it sits below the main window, so I thought it was missing. I have BI settings set to Full-Window selected camera. Setting to 1-up selected camera does not make any difference. What setting is causing this? I tried a bunch, but...

    DH-SD22A204TN-GN(I) and Blue Iris

    I am looking at the DH-SD22A204TN-GN(I) camera. I tried the Sumpple S610 and it did not work very nice with Blue Iris. Does the PTZ presets and optical zoom work with these programs? Is external IP addresses handled if I setup port forwarding. This works with my Foscam cameras. Amazon has a...

    How to stop IR from triggering motion

    In the morning when the IR turns off, it triggers a motion record. I have the trigger set for 1.0 sec. Any more and I will probably miss when I package is dropped off on my porch. I assume the option to end trigger unless re-triggered would also miss the delivery. Any suggestions?
