    New BI App won't connect local

    I'm running the latest new android app, v3.0.17, and it won't connect locally when I'm connected to my home wifi. The previous old version worked fine. I am using a wireguard vpn which is only active when I'm not connected to my home wifi. I have my local ip set for both lan and wan in the app...

    iOS app won't connect over WAN

    I have a user with the iOS app on his iPhone that won't connect via the WAN. It will however connect when on the local Wifi. I verified the wan settings and they are the same as I use on my android app which works fine. I also checked and the iPhone can connect over the wan if using a browser...

    4 in 1 IP Cameras

    At work we have these crappy Arecont Vision cameras that are actually 4 separate cameras in one. There is only one network feed and I can access each camera by defining cam 1 through 4. Each camera is a 3mp lens that can be aimed separately from the others. Actually sort of neat. My question...

    Continuous Recording, Pre-Trigger and D2D

    I had my system setup for triggered recording with D2D. With that I also had the pre-trigger set and working for an additional 3 seconds. I decided to try out continuous recording and still use the triggered alerts. Does the pre-trigger settings not matter when you do continuous recording? I ask...

    Recording storage to 2 locations at same time

    Is it possible to record clips to 2 different drives at the same time? Not even sure this is worth the effort but I was thinking of having BI store new clips on a local drive and then also have it save them to a nas. This way when accessing BI via the web or mobile app the clips I watch are...

    To Get and I5 or I7, That is the Question

    So earlier this week we had some storms roll through and our power flickered. It flickered just enough for all the computers to reboot. However, my BI server didn't come back. That darn power flicker took out my mainboard. So I'm building a new one and can't decide on an I5 or I7 processor...

    Help with Networking Issue

    I have a strange issue and I thought I would throw it out here. I do networking for a living but this has me stumped. Has to be something simple and I'm just missing it to the point of embarrassment. I have a simple peer-to-peer network at home. I'm using a Cisco 2960 POE 8-port switch for the...

    LaView Panda LV-PC902F2-W Audio

    I recently purchased a pair of these Laview cameras when fenderman shared a special on them at Newegg. They say it has audio and I see the settings in the camera but I cannot seem to hear anything in the BI app or web page. I haven't tried checking from the BI server though. I did find the...

    Viewing Manual Recorded Clips in Mobile App

    Is there a way to view manual recorded clips in the mobile apps? I have a camera that I trigger manual recording from my home automation system but I cannot seem to find a way to view those clips in the android app. I can see them in the BI console and in the web app if I select All Clips. Is...

    Sort Order

    Is there a way to sort the order of the cameras? I thought it would be alphabetical so I changed the name to add numbers in front of the names but that didn't change it.

    Going from BI 4 64bit to 32bit

    I see a lot of talk and suggestions about running BI 4 32bit if you only have 4 or so cameras. Mainly due to the 32 bit being more stable. Is it just more stable or does it also use less cpu resources? Also, can I just export my settings in the 64 bit and import them to the 32 bit version?

    Profiles Question

    I've been lurking around but have not found a definitive answer yet. I just started working with schedules and profiles and I'm still trying to understand them. I've read several threads and I'm almost there. I have a simple setup since this is all new to me. One hk series 2132 running in BI4...

    HK Series 2132 Cam

    Does anyone know if the unbranded HK Series cams from Nelly's can have the firmware updated? I don't know if I'm missing anything in the current firmware, but if I see a feature in a more current firmware I'd like to know if I can update it. My cam currently shows v5.1.6 build 140514

    Triggering BI from HCA

    This is probably something that will be way over my head and not sure if I have the patients to do it, but does anyone know if I can have my Home Control Assistant trigger the cameras in BI to record? Here is a little background and what I would like to do. I have a simple X10 security system...

    Hello everyone, New here and wanted to say hey. I recently purchased and installed Blue Iris which led me here and I'm overwhelmed by all the info. Will take me a while to shift through it all but I thought maybe I would ask a quick question. I see how many here recommend the Hikvision and...
