    Black border around feed web server

    Thank you for the elaborate answer! I think you may be on to something. I setup the BI5 using my external desktop, it causes the screen to be in a weird resolution. Connecting using VNC now, allows me to set a different resolution (1920) on the desktop. I tried changing the frame size in BI...

    Black border around feed web server

    I run a RPi3B 247, showing a cycling feed. Browser is chromium. Attached screenshot is from my PC. Left is FF, full screen (showing border), right is Chrome, showing as intended. I never used chrome on the PC to check the camera feed.

    Storage options

    Yes, I totally agree :). Currently, the server that runs BI is also running as kind of a file server, it has three HDD's in it at the moment, but I want something dedicated :). The Synology drives have come up on multiple searches, thank you for the recommendation.

    Storage options

    Thank you all, really appreciate the info. Couple of things :). I think surveillance is a great deterrent, the see couple of camera's outside, might make them consider the next door neighbor. The reason I want to make sure I have my feeds in hand after something happens, is to catch these...

    Storage options

    Hi all! I have a server setup with BI running. Everything is stored on this one server. I am worried that IF someone is to enter the house, the server is likely to disappear too. I would like to hide a NAS somewhere, but unsure where/how. Attic will be too hot/cold the majority of the year (I...

    He could've gotten it somewhere else, and received a fake item. I reported it as abuse. We can write reviews as well, even if we didn't purchase through the Amazon store. I will do just that, anything to help Mr. Andy :)

    Hi Tony, thanks for the help. Was able to pick up an Axis 4ch on eBay for $50 bucks. That will do for now, I've got several Dahua around the house and am very happy with them, the garage is just not a priority for now :). Thanks!

    Cheap cheap Annke set. How to get rid of the box?

    Hi Tony, It is the unit I have linked in my first post. I already have it set up as you describe, and it works great. The box is just a bit loud, and I don't need it to have any DVR functionality, other than passing the signal to Blue Iris through Ethernet. How much would an encoder run for...

    Hi all! I will keep it short. Any smart way of waking up a monitor upon a trigger in Blue Iris? Another, slightly related question, if I have multiple camera's showing as for example 1:2, can I automatically move a triggered camera to the biggest tile?
