Thank you!! I'm celebrating the 53rd anniversary of turning 21...

You would think I'd remember that since today is my birthday...(LOL)

A few posts (and weeks) back, I suggested trying "Anydesk" [www.anydesk.com] .This is a small program that is easier and much more friendly than Teamviewer. I use this for several customers.

Can you "see" your camera using BlueIris? (Try the free demo.) If so, open "options" select "clips and archiving" and change the drive letter to your cloud drive - just make sure you create the same folder structure off the root of the cloud drive. (x:\BlueIris\db and x:\BlueIris\New) I...

My question is similar but simpler, I think. I just want to (automatically) ftp the .bvr clips to an off site location. [I can convert them later if needed...]I feel I have the "motion detection" process working for me and the clips are fine. I have enabled BI ftp transfer as well as email...

TMobile Hotspot ZTE 4G Mf64 - Port forwarding help needed. Yes, I know that port forwarding is old school and frowned upon today, I need to do this as a simple solution for a short term (temporary) installation. I am using Blue Iris and want to have (www) remote access and remote control...

Thanks for all the assistance!!! There is little in life more exhilarating than a steep learning curve! Getting my practice field ready. My home router is Netgear Nighthawk R7000. It seems to have a VPN capability. Also, about a block away from my home is an office system that I maintain...

looney2ns & crw030: Thanks for the responses. Being somewhat lazy and thoroughly retired, I was hoping for a simple(er) solution... Looney2ns - thanks for the reading materials. crw030 - I appreciate all the step by step details. Looks like I now have an opportunity to learn just what VPN means.

I have a 2 camera system running smoothly on my home dedicated PC system using 192.168.xxx.yyy camera addresses. Can I/how can I cause this installation of BI to connect to 2 other cameras at my vacation home 450 miles away using their external ip address (172.223.xxx.yyy:port)? I have high...

Thanks!! That was easy... (and good).

I see a BI android app is available. I want to use it on both my phone and a tablet. Do I need to purchase this for each, or can one purchased copy be used on both - at the same time? Also, is there a good/better alternative for this android app?

There is nothing more exhilarating than a steep learning curve... Is this what you asked for?

Thanks!! Done. The second camera had settings of 25 and iframe of 50. I set this iframe to 25 to match. Now to wait for some real life triggers.

Wow, spot on! You are amazingly fast and helpful! I found the two settings in the camera - see attached. Which one should I change? What is the best setting?

Thank you! Sensitivity settings I located. I'll play with this (these). But, "match the iframe interval to the fps" is beyond me. Please point me to somewhere to read about this...

Motion Detection: Maybe I am looking for too much. I want to set BI to record the few seconds of video that occured just before the triggered event. Initial BI install seems to start recording the clip a few seconds after the first motion occurs which results in missing the initial video...

Thanks!! I was afraid you might think I was promoting some piece of crap software. This is one of the best tools I ever bought for $10.

In order to monitor my "server" at home, I use a program called Net Uptime Monitor. This tells me (after the fact) that my Internet was down, when it went down and for how long...

Virtual neighbors... Chelsea is in the same county (Shelby) as I, just about 4 miles away. Small world!

I fully agree with your approach. Having run into second hand cameras that had been set to a fixed ip, I was forced to learn this. Most low end (cheap) cameras do not have a hardware reset. (Off topic for sure...What part of Alabama? I'm in Bham...)

If the camera's ip address is set to 192.168.0.xx, and your router is set to assign (and see) addresses in the 192.168.1.xx range, the router will never see the camera...(Off the original topic, somewhat, maybe, but close...)

How I find an unknown ip address... Try a (free, I think) program called "Wire Shark" (Wireshark · Go Deep.). This pgm has way more capability than I ever use. Just set a stand alone laptop to 192.168.1.11/255.255.255.0; disable wifi; and connect directly (no twist) to the unknown...

I subscribe to the Keep It Simple,,,(KISS) school of thought. I used one of these: TL-WR700N | 150Mbps Wireless N Mini Pocket Router | TP-Link Set it in Repeater mode and you're good to go. These are available all over eBay...

Donald - as the kids say today, "I feel ya". In my 60+ years of playing in electronics, I have found that price does not always equal quality. I recently acquired a couple of the low-end ($20.) cameras that use this V380 software and find them to work fine. It did take some trial and...
