Are your cameras being powered with their own "Power Supply", or is your router suplying power (POE).

When the blueIris web site went down, all my camera groups went away.

Reentered my serial and maintenance numbers and things returned to normal. Noticed my camera groups are missing. Did this happen to anyone else?

How do I send a PM? Gary A

I would like 3 of them. Gary A

Any chance this camera switched to PAL, instead of NTSC?

Under the "Profile" button you will find several other selections other than Day (General, Night). Those that will affect your overnight color.

I am always willing to share overview and LPR video with law enforcement when they ask. They are usually pleased with the results. Their final question is typically " Do you have any shots that show who was driving?". I do not have any cameras specifically set up for that function. So the...

Does anyone know if there is a difference between the "General" and "Day" profile?

Could that be regenerative braking on an electric vehicle?

I was searching for a 5241-12e camera, and came across a vendor called Poseilo They offered the camera @ $174.99. They even called it a Loryta. In addition they offered a 30% discount and free shipping for ordering 3 at the same time. A google search puts them on a scammers list, as taking...

Thanks reflection, for giving such a complete reply. I have a Cisco 3750-48 POE switch and it is on my ipcam bucket list to split my system up in dual vlans. Unfortunately, I do not know where to start. Your post has given me a starting point, and hopefully it will point others in the same...

Thanks, wittaj, it worked like a charm. By using Blue Iris motion detect zones, I can use several older HFW2325 's I had laying around for overview camaras, and put the money towards getting better LPR cameras when they come out. I'm a happy camper!

I would like to trigger my LPR camera (5241-z12e) when a vehicle is within the focus rectangle of the overview camera. The overview camera is perpendicular to the focal point of the LPR camera. Do I need IVS on the overview camera, or will simple motion detection work? What are the basic...

If SightHound is pegging your CPU, just try pausing the feed, and use the watched folder instead. I was getting false detections from overview cameras. I setup a LPR directorie, and just feed LPR cameras there. CPU usage is back to normal now.

Thanks sebastiantombs. it was there under find/inspect and when I put the PTZ controls on, the + and minus signs zoomed the camera perfectly! It seems obvious now, I wonder how long it will take to master BlueIris? Can it ever be expected, with all the updates?

I just switched from a NVR 5216 to BlueIris 5. iIt is running on a Dell Optiplex 7050 with an I7-7700 processor, with 40Gb ram. It has a 250Gb SSD and 4Tb Purple hard drive. Long term storage is to a NAS with 5ea 8Tb WD Reds. When I add cameras I specify they are Dahuas, and the model...

Update; The Blue Iris machine (SFF) fits so well in my entertainment center. It would have been much cheaper to go with a larger box to house extra drives, but I had nowhere to put them. I added a Synology 1019+ with 3ea 8Tb drives to my network. My previous Dahua NVR5216 had two 4Tb purple...

Who would complain about a small x-mas tree? A little camo tape and the camera disappears!

Thanks Southern Yankee, I have a 256Gb SSD drive in the machine which has Windows 10 Pro, and Blue Iris 5 is installed on it. I also has a 4Tb purple hard drive (D). My new files will be stored there. The NAS (9TB) will store historical files. I apologize for using the wrong names, but I am...

Thank You to everyone that responded. The Optiplex 7010 or 7020 might have been a better choice for me, since it has a full sized CD player. The 7050 has a 7mm tall drive, and the 4Tb drive is 14mm. Just not enough room to shoehorn it in. I would like to put the BI computer in my open...

I recently picked up a Dell Optiplex 7050 SFF computer to allow me to run Blue Iris. It has an I7-7700 processor, but only had a 250Mb SSD. I added a 2nd NIC, and moved one of the 4T purple drives from my Dahua 5216 NVR. Now I'm looking for the best way to add the other 4T purple drive. It...

I will be holding off further purchases until there is a z12 version of this camera.

I am using a NVR5232-16P-4KS2E NVR, and a 48 port POE switch in the closet. All cameras run to the switch. Will the NVR find and negotiate initialization of the cameras through the switch?

Andy, any recommendations for a cheap generic Dahua camera, bullet is fine, 3.2mm lens, does not require starlite, IVS not required. just a typical perimeter camera. Audio would be a plus.

Alistair, You are right I do not have that ability. I simply changed the settings on the camera email page and pressed the test button. With GMail settings it Fails, with Comcast settings I get Success.

I just tried it both ways, and it fails if going to the GMail server. Changing to the Comcast server and it still works regardless of user name. Something about the Dahua firmware and GMail server just does not match.

alastairstevenson reply about email notify got me to thinking about another email account I have but never use, on comcast.net I setup my smtp(email) page using the comcast.net account with port 587 and TLS, and it succeeded! Changed it back to GMail account information and it failed again. It...

With port 465 and TLS it takes 10 seconds to return the fail. Using 465 and SSL it is back in 1 second. With port 587 either TLS or SSL only take about 1 second. Testing is is being done on a new B5442E-Z4E I got from Andy this week, so the firmware should be up to date. 2.800.0000000.6.R...
