Am I understanding that there's a way for BI to push a picture to the mobile app? If so how do you enable that? Right now when I get push notifications from BI app on my phone it's just text stating which camera caused the alert. At that point I connect to my VPN and use the app to view the...

Thank you @looney2ns, that worked perfectly. My recollection with BI4 was just dragging the start / stop markers (as in they were already there). Glad to know how to do this now!

I'm using BI5, and can't find the red and green start / stop markers at all nor the export video button. I found the clip I wanted by double-clicking the alert on the left pane. I never had issues with exporting bits of video from BI4. What do I need to do to enable this in BI5? Thanks!

Ah, I seriously never noticed that dropdown in the app or UI3, ok yeah that makes sense - I'll make some groups and that'll help for sure.

Thank you, that workaround makes sense, I'll give it a try. It's a bummer to have to log out and back in to glance at other cameras, but hopefully that'll be fixed in the future.

Thank you for your response. Given your instructions I was able to get the exact layout I'd like in BI, with my 4 most-used cams having the largest images and the rest of them surrounding. It's perfect. Thanks! I've played with the frame size, and I've found that anything less than 1600 x 900...

I have 14 cameras (soon will be 18), but there are 4 that I primarily want to have up on the screen 95% of the time. Is there a way to choose which ones are displayed in UI3 and the Blue Iris application? I mainly care about UI3 because my BI server will become headless soon. I'm also curious...

Is there a dome version of this camera for indoor use? This camera looks like the perfect balance of cost and features for outdoors, but don't really want to mount the turret style inside of the house. <EDIT> - I think I figured it out - is it the IPC-HDBW2231R-ZS/VFS? Any notable differences...

Oh one other thing - in addition to the IPC-HDW5231R-Z, I was looking at the IPC-HDW4231EM-ASE. The only difference I notice is that the IPC-HDW5231R-Z has a motorized lens; is that correct?

Thanks Mat200! These threads are full of detailed information; it's hard to find high-level stuff for newbies, so the two posts you linked are super helpful. Great summary of information! I hardly have time to read the threads of interest, much less 170+ page threads, so thanks for the...

Ah, I assumed this was the international version, thanks for the clarification and advice. Just curious, why avoid the Chinese versions? Is it harder / impossible to put North American firmware on them? Or is the hardware subpar in some way?

Has anybody made a cross-reference table of which USA firmware version will run on which international version? I'd be concerned about thinking that a given firmware is the corresponding version, but then accidentally bricking the camera. I have been mainly looking at the starlight cameras...

Hello, I've been reading for awhile but am pretty new here. A bit of background, I've been using an 8-camera 720p analog Lorex system from Costco. I love the Flir Cloud PC and Android UIs, but it's time for better quality cameras and I would like to set up about 20 cameras that we pre-wired...
