    BI Won't Launch

    I have been using BI for at least 10 years with 10-15 cameras. A couple days ago I was adding a camera and something seems to have gone wrong during the process and now I can't get BI to start. When I click the BI icon, the cursor spins for a second or two and then nothing, the software does...

    Export

    From time to time I have tried to export a large BI video to MPEG-4. Is there some kind of a limit to the length of time or the size of the video that can be exported? It always seems to stop exporting before the full video export has been completed.

    Windows automatic update

    I did some teaching of the treads before I posted but apparently I did not work hard enough to track it down. I would love to do as you suggest and I suspect there is a way to disable the windows log in requirement that is now required after a restart. I will look into that as well.

    Windows automatic update

    I purchased a Lenovo desktop running windows 10 so I can run Blue Iris with about 18 cameras. It all works great! I can't believe how hard it is to stop the darn machine from doing an automatic restart after a Windows 10 update, thus shutting down BI. I have done a lot of research and there...

    Windows Clean Install

    I need to do a clean install of Windows on my BI i7 machine. What do I need to do to preserve all of my BI cam settings (15), clips, saved clips, users, etc, etc?

    Trigger count

    Is there an easy way to know how many time a given profile is motion triggered during a particular period of time, a day for instance?

    BlueIris Mobile

    I figured it out. It was because I did not have webserver>advanced>authentication set for ALL CONNECTIONS. Once set for ALL, only the designated camera group was available to the new user.

    BlueIris Mobile

    I have set up a new user who is going to have access to one of my camera groups. When this user logs in using her ID and PW on chrome on her desk top, she has access to only the group of cameras that I have assigned. I installed BI mobile on her iPhone. When she logs in using her same ID and...

    BI Remote Security

    Were would I find the log? I suspect because BI creates an anonymous user with no password on its own even after I delete them. Twice while sitting at my computer I heard the audible login sound. I will look into your #2 above. This may a vulnerability. #3: I disabled NAT Port Mapping...

    BI Remote Security

    I have had a BI web server set up for several years and opened up port 100 on my Airport Extreme router for this purpose. I suspect this open port has become a problem as I have suspisicions that some one is remotely accessing my computer. Are there a couple SIMPLE things that I can do to be...

    Port 81

    When setting up a BI web server the BI documentation recommends using port 81. Why is port 81 any better than any other port?

    eBay Hik

    Recently a few of these have been showing up on eBay. The seller almost always has almost no feedback. Not sure why they are priced so low. Seems risky. http://www.ebay.com/itm/331619290660

    Hik Pin

    Interesting. Hmm, I wonder if thats possible. I don't see that spec posted anywhere for the L shape.

    Hik Pin

    Okay, thanks for helping me sort this out. I ordered the 10.

    Hik Pin

    I am wrong, the 20 is L shaped, the 10 is the tube shaped and the 30 is the cylinder. In which situations would one use the 20 as opposed to the 10?

    Hik Pin

    ic. I have one and it is 3.7 but I was hoping others were avail. The 10 is the Cylinder, the 20 is more or less tube shaped and the 30 is kind of an L shape. The 20 and the 30 are considered pinholes and likely only 3.7 available. Is my info correct?
  26. D

    Hik Pin

    Thanks Fenderman. So there are 3 configurations available for this cam and the 20 and the 30 are pinhole and the 10 is the cylinder, is that correct? If so, what are the lens size options of the pinholes? DS-2CD6412FWD-10 DS-2CD6412FWD-20 DS-2CD6412FWD-30

    Hik Pin

    Every time I try to buy one of these off Ali I can't figure out why the heck someone does not sell them on Amazon, from US, at about 175. It's THE ONLY viable pinhole at this price point but simply not available through a US vendor.

    Hik Pin

    This is the one I spotted that I think shows a 2.8 option but I can't get them to confirm because they do not understand my english well enough: http://www.aliexpress.com/item/ATM-2014-in-stock-2m-Hikvision-DS-2CD6412FWD-1-3-network-WDR-pinhole-camera-tube-network/32227552301.html

    Okay but this appears to be the 3.7 mm lens. How can I get the 2.8?

    Hik Pin

    Does anyone have a good connection at Alibaba through which I can order a couple of Hik Pin Hole with 2.8 mm lens? I am having difficulty getting non-english speakers to understand and confirm the 2.8 lens on the site.
