    OpenVPN and Blue Iris on Separate Network?

    I setup my home network in the same way that you're trying to do. My basic firewall rule for the camera Vlan network (which includes the NVR server with one nic) is no internet access and no other vlan network access. My openVPN service sits on the router and has its own Vlan which has...

    Blue Iris UI3

    I like the first format as it follows json style and is clearer to me. HomeAssistant runs on JSON so it's compatible, but one could parse either format and extract the complete payload in the message. I also like the timeout function as one could set this to say 600 seconds to limit screen...

    Blue Iris UI3

    Hello, Ok that all makes sense. Thanks for look into this. To get around the BI limitations, would it be possible to create an mqtt function similar to the audio notice that's in UI3, only instead of playing audio, use toast style pop-ups. This would give one very granular control over when...

    Blue Iris UI3

    Hello, I've had a chance to look at the new alert changes and there are a couple of problems. The pause icon does show when UI3 enabled and I pause a camera from the UI3 camera properties. The icon does not show if I pause a camera through an http call to Blue Iris such as...

    That's awesome. Thank you so much.

    This sounds like the way to go. The idea is that if I am in my garage, and there's an alert from the other side of the property on the front steps--which I have designated as a critical camera for the garage monitor-- there would be a toast like message on the screen with the message displaying...

    Hello, I have a couple of requests that I've been considering for a while and thought I'd place them together to see if any are feasible. Would it be possible to place a small warning icon on a camera's image when a camera is paused. My situation is that I pause cameras through Home Automation...

    I tried several combinations of actions that used to cause the error, with none of those actions causing any problems, so all looks good. Thx for the quick turnaround.

    The error doesn't occur during the actual clip deletion, but just after the deletions while refreshing the browser. It usually takes three refreshes to clear the error. I use two different streaming profiles: one for low resolution wireless tablet monitors, and another for wired PC...

    Hello. I went back a few months of forum posts to see if there were any mentions of the below error, but did not see anything posted. I'm using the latest BI version 5.7.6.7. The error has been occurring for at least the past 5 versions of BI. It occurs when I try to delete clips. I can...

    MQTT Alert messages from Blue Iris - not firing?

    That's pretty slick. How is the message received time on your phone (compared to the event) when sending a message from HA to your mobile app. I like that you can launch a clip on the app from an alert jpg. What player are you using? How are you fire-walling BlueIris on your LAN?

    MQTT Alert messages from Blue Iris - not firing?

    Yeah, DNS at a top level is easy. Layers down it's black magic. So you're saying that macros and JSON payloads do work? If so, I'll have to try that as they previously did not work.

    MQTT Alert messages from Blue Iris - not firing?

    I noticed with Camera Alerts that if any of the conditions are false, and there are many conditions, then the alert will not fire. Which gives you a fine grain adjustment, but can also easily cause failure. When you run the test on the alert itself, does it fire (the lightning bolt icon)? You...

    MQTT Alert messages from Blue Iris - not firing?

    Here is my MQTT set up. Make sure that the Mosquitto server IP and port is correct in BlueIris. It must match your Mosquitto config.

    MQTT Alert messages from Blue Iris - not firing?

    Try just using "BlueIris/YourCameraName/Alert" and for the payload use "Off". All without quotes and substitute the name of the camera for YourCameraName. If it works, then you can be sure that it's the use of macros and/or json payloads that is causing the problem.

    MQTT Alert messages from Blue Iris - not firing?

    I was never able to get macros to work with BlueIris MQTT. The same holds true for JSON payloads. I use simple topics and simpler payloads. A pain yes, but it does work for what I need it to do. The LWT comes from the watchdog tab online/offline trigger. Where are you picking up the data...

    MQTT is not that difficult to understand so I'd say jump in by googling. Perhaps "MQTT home assistant". That should give you the basics. Web socket is a protocol much like http and there's plenty of info on the web if you want to deep dive. Needless to say, start by configuring Blue Iris...

    If you're using mosquitto as your broker, then place the following two lines in the config file: listener 9001 protocol websockets This allows port 9001 to function as the websocket listener. Then configure your connection in the UI3 "UI settings" at the top right menu. My configuration...

    Hello, I just stumbled upon the MQTT feature of UI3 and I have it working to remote control the UIs of my monitors. Very cool. If possible, I'd like to see an added command of a LWT when a browser closes on the UI, or conversely, if the UI is launched in a browser. Perhaps "Closed" and...

    You could also try mapping the network endpoint and then use the mapped path as your custom folder path. That way the custom model sits on the same endpoint as the deepstack instance. However, there are probably tradeoffs in pushing large data sets across the network instead of using a local...

    I would think so, though I don't have access to the internals of BI, so I can't say for sure. It looks like the config screen is set up to accommodate your use case. From the look of the config screen, you would need to place your custom model on a local drive\folder (and check that config...

    Try unchecking "Default object detection" and check "Use custom folder" with the "combined" model placed in the custom folder of your choice. The way you have it now, you only have the original object model being accessed.

    Yeah a linux script on a win machine is a little too complex for my needs. Not that the script won't be reliable, but if I need to tweak it, I know I will have to review the code to understand what's what and that takes real time. I'm going to try to get Ken to write a simple Alert action...

    Can you elaborate on how you're doing this ie, are you using the FTP function (in alert actions) to save an alert image, or are you using "Run a program or write to a file" or even "Do command -- set output 1." I'm looking for the easiest way to automate the saving of a jpeg to a specific local...

    5.5.1 - September 23, 2021

    Ok got it. You know you could help the cause by establishing a "central place to log a bug and then follow-up on its status". Why not create a sub folder on the forum called "bug reports" and then monitor the status of the bug fix for each submission.

    5.5.1 - September 23, 2021

    Yes, I ended up rolling back all the way to 5.4.9.18 as there are a number of bugs in the 5.5 implementation. I don't mind testing new BI software, as I've had Ken correct a number of bugs that I've found in the past. But it gets old when basic things like deleting clips through UI3 is broken...

    5.5.1 - September 23, 2021

    I'm not running a separate GPU as the I9 has a GPU on the chip. I have been considering adding a GPU for deepstack, but have not seen anything that is priced reasonably for the limited application that I need it for (and it appears that I would also need to use NVidia to take advantage of...

    5.5.1 - September 23, 2021

    I had to roll back to version 5.5.1 from 5.5.2 because of extremely high CPU usage. I'm using an I9 processor with 16gb of memory and I was spiking at +100 CPU every couple of seconds. I also have deepstack enabled on five of my 14 cameras. I'm using substreams on all cameras, which usually...
