    Bicyclist videoing my street?

    It looks like this guy was collecting info for some reason. I wish I could get more detail out of my night recordings. I run IR off so the cam location won't be given up as easily.

    Cam Stuttering When Not Highlighted

    Hi, I never noticed this before. When no camera is selected, the frame rate wigs out. Funny thing is, when I launch my mobile app either on local wifi or VPN both frame rates return to normal. Close the app and the stuttering returns. It look fine when viewing though the web app while at the...

    Please help configure my new Asus

    Hi, I'm trying to get my cameras working in BI with my new Asus AC2900 router. They work fine when I plug the unmanaged POE switches into the old modem/router but when I move them to the Asus they give me the old check IP notice. I tried a few simple things like going to properties on each cam...

    New ASUS AC2900, what is the best (easiest) way to get through my VPN to watch BI on iPhone

    Hi, feeling like a dummy again. I need to get to BI on my home computer. Do I have to subscribe to a VPN service? Or do I use the ASUS firmware and some app on my iPhone (besides the BI mobile that I already have)? I was accessing BI using port forward until I found out it was unwise. Again...

    Feel like a dummy shopping for VPN router...HELP please

    Hi, I'm shopping for a VPN wifi router for $150-$200. I have tried to educate myself here and on Amazon ratings but just got bogged down. I would like to get something that is newer than 3-5 year old technology if I can. I know I'm lazy, I work my brain pretty hard at work all week and don't...

    PTZ presets not working, didn't install SD

    My PTZ presets aren't working correctly. Did I make a mistake by not bothering to install an SD card? I thought since I wasn't recording to on cam memory it wasn't necessary. Doh Dahua SD1A203T-GN

    Too lazy to research, need starlight cam advice

    Hi, I tried looking around but just got confused with all the choices and technology changes. Can any one recommend a starlight cam with PTZ auto focus, POE? I have a non PTZ turret in this location already but would like to add one that allows me to look around and better night vision. My...

    Which Bullet to buy?

    Hi, I'm too lazy or stupid to try and figure out which IP cam to buy. Roofers took out my cheap Amcrest IP2M-842E POE capability so I need a replacement. I almost bought a Dahua IPC-HFW4431R-Z, luckily I realized it was 2 year old technology and international before I ordered. Anyway, does...

    Use Laptop Cam On BI?

    It just occurred to me that it would be cool if I could use my forward facing laptop cam with BI. I have a hidden SSD so if someone did break in and take my server, it would get them on cam.....just a thought.

    Kernal Power 41 Error?

    Hi, The last couple of weeks my Surface 3 started rebooting a couple of times a day. I know I shouldn't be using this for my server, an i7 is on my wish list. I don't think my Surface has gotten too hot, I typically run Blue Iris and Tools and two cams at under 25% CPU usage. Four cams bring it...

    Skunk Cam

    Getting ready to go to work and look who's been at the front door! I Maybe I shouldn't have put that front door cam in after all. We were just talking about skunks the other day, I think this is the first I've seen in 25 years here.

    Roadrunner vs cat (horrible res)

    I've seen this before, the roadrunners around here rule the cats. Sorry about the poor quality, I just put my 4th cam up using my Surface 3 as a server so I have the res to 720. Hopefully I can get a better video soon as we have 2 roadrunners that like our yard.

    Frame Rate Adjust Automatically Greyed Out

    Does anyone know why the check box would be greyed out? It's been like that since day one, about 10 months ago. Thanks and happy new year.

    Export Files Suddenly Won't Play

    Hi, The last couple of weeks my exported vids won't playback. I didn't change any settings, should be AVI just like before. I did change their storage location back to C: but didn't see any change. The exports from earlier this year have the same error. YouTube doesn't like the new ones either...

    LAN IP keeps changing after some reboots or Win 10 updates

    I've been noticing through the months of using BI and Windows 10 that sometimes when I am forced to boot on an OS update or just some maintenance reboots the LAN IP changes 3 digits. Later it will change back usually within a day or two but in the meantime I have to change my port forward in...

    "Tracers" Suddenly

    I don't remember seeing these tracers before about two weeks ago, after a firmware update. Anyone have a suggestion? LTS Platinum CMIP1142W-28 V5.3.2 build150915 Thanks ~

    Please Help Controlling LTS profile Brightness with BI4

    This has probably been asked before but maybe not in thesame way. I finally decided to use white light daytime mode with no IR on mycarport cam for both day and night. It is an LTS Platinum CMIP1142W-28 runningthrough a TP-LINK TL-SF-1008P Switch to my BI4 computer. All I want to do nowis adjust...

    F1983IP V2, F1982IP V2 Firmware update?

    Should I bother updating my firmware? Currently F1983IP V2, F1982IP V2 2.21.1.12_P1 and 2.21.1.143 respectively. It looks like the current firmware is the same for both cams. V-2.x.2.18-20150914. I think I have those numbers right.

    Push Notification To ios Without Popup?

    Hi, it would be nice if I could get the push notification sound on my iPhone without the popup window. At night I could hear that the cam was triggered and glance at the phone without having to reach over to clear the popup window. Anyone know if this is possible? Thanks

    Questions about static IP configuration

    Hi, My system is working great now without using a static IP but I know I need to set it up. Can someone dumb down the terminology for me as far as Gateway IP? Does the subnet mask ever change or is it always 255.255.255.0? I basically need to know what numbers to put where. Thanks

    Direct Sunlight On Sensor?

    Hi, quick question. Back in the old days it was not a good idea to point video cameras into direct sunlight. Is this still true with our IP cams? I have my backyard (bay window) cam in a spot that shades it from the morning sun, it would be much more useful and my wife would be much happier if...

    Am I Over Reacting?

    Since I am an early riser, I noticed this person while sitting at my desk. I have the street masked so I had to manually trigger to get the video capture. Do you think he was up to no good or do I need to switch to decaf?
