Does Blue Iris post all release notes by version somewhere? I tried to find release notes for the version I am on 5.8.4.5 but on their website I only find release notes for 5.8.5.6

That issue actually was from the latest stable release.

I received a response from Blue Iris support. Uncheck the "Enable Audio Channel" setting on the Audio tab for the camera if it does not support Audio. As of version 5.8.4 and newer it is considered a signal loss if audio is enabled but not present. It corrected the issue for me without the need...

I am running Blue Iris 5.8.4.5. This issue popped up in the last couple weeks at one of my 2 installations. I am mostly using the exact same cameras in both locations, but at this location most of the cameras will not trigger or record on motion. When I look at the status the cameras are showing...

On one camera it kind of puckered out on one side and that one was a little easier to get off. On the other, it was like a 20 min chore including hauling a ladder up to the roof. That one was completely flat and just baked on hard.

That lesson is don't forget to peel off the protective film on the front when you are done. Let that bake in the sun for a year and a half and you will be out there with a plastic tool trying to scrape it off in 1mm size bits. This is especially not fun standing on a ladder hanging over the...

That worked, thanks for the info!

Do you know if there is some configuration or setting required to get it to work? I couldn't get it to work with my new Dahua camera. I tried just now with my generic Chinese cams and those do work, however. My new camera is Loryta IPC-HFW5241E-Z12E 5mm - 64mm that I purchased on Amazon. The...

On my 100 yard range, it is somewhat difficult to get my "target cameras" dialed in. I am using 5mm - 50mm (one 60mm) cameras that are about 85 yards down range, and then zoomed into the targets at 100 yards. I am trying to center the target in the monitor and zoom in so that it mostly fills the...

We are only trying to reduce loss of small expensive items like optics or knives. Lately it seems we have a high employee turnover rate and suspect employee theft more so than customers. We want to tag specific, individual retail boxes at this point.

This is a long shot, but since so many here are into surveillance systems and buying cameras from China, I thought it would be worth a try. We are interested in buying am EAS systems for our retail store. In the US they sell for around $1800 each, but I many systems on AliExpress for under...

You are right. The cameras at my house have a setting called "DST Bias" and they were set to 30 mins. Swapping that to 60 mins fixed it. Thanks!

I noticed this morning on my home BlueIris system that the time on my cameras was off by 30 minutes. I am using the camera OSD only so I went to look at the time settings. It was configured to use time.windows.com. Since I am having success running the W32Time service on my BlueIris servers at...

We opened the range in July, 2020. We have LED lighting. Since the 100 yard bay is so dang long, we raised the baffles on this one up to 10' high so it isn't so much "tunnel vision". Here is a shot from one of the tables showing the installed camera system with the target down at 100 yards. The...

I found the simplest solution was to install the QVPN app on my NAS that has OpenVPN support. It also already had their DDNS service running so then it was pretty simple to forward 1194 UDP to the NAS. It's working great!

I need to setup a VPN server to access BlueIris at my home remotely. I have setup Pritunl at work but that is Ubuntu Linux and was actually pretty simple to setup as a VM. At home, I need to setup VPN on a Windows box. What are most using and is there a good tutorial out there that I can use to...

Windows Update history shows last updates were installed on 6/14, but nothing video driver related, only Windows 10 Cumulative Update and Windows Defender updates. The file/folder corruption error was weird though as it kept coming back even after reboot, but all the tools that checked the drive...

That is what the shortcut it put on my start menu calls. I copied my .reg files to the network so I won't lose them. I started to reinstall Blue Iris and it said it needed to install the c++ runtime prerequisites first. I found that odd as I was reinstalling the same version of BI I installed...

It looks like I have 3 reg files, one from about 4:11am this morning and another that looks to have been created just a few minutes ago. So after install I can import my configuration from one of these? I appreciate the help

I have not manually installed an update. I did a reboot and this issue persists.

Cannot get UI3 to work this morning. The service is running and restarts just fine, but if I try to run the BlueIrisAdmin.exe I get "C:\Program Files\Blue Iris 5\BlueIrisAdmin.exe, The file or directory is corrupted and unreadable". If I chose to re-install the application will I lose all my...

I now have 2 Blue Iris servers - first one is in TX and the 2nd in CA. The two locations are on different subnets, connected by VPN in the routers. I also have an OpenVPN server in my network for remote access. From my wired LAN connection at home using OpenVPN I can connect to any server in...

Thanks for all the help. It's working great now

Easy enough. Thanks for the info

I was concerned about how long I could retain footage if I go to continuous recording, or even continuous recording during business hours. I checked my data folders today and I still have footage available from last August. I have a total of 18 TB of storage and 55 cameras right now. It does...

Thank you. I will make these changes and check the results.

I have a shooting range with a camera on every single lane. When looking at live feeds, everything looks just fine, but when we review video clips sometimes a lot of the action is skipped. For instance we have had a few guys have a negligent discharge (gun fires by "accident") and this is...

I think I found a fix for my issues. It seems a corrupted ARP cache on the server was causing my problems. I ran ARP -d on an elevated command prompt and all PC that could not connect can now connect. This was also affecting RDP to the server, and now that issue is resolved as well.

I got my parts in and I found that with the IPC-T2231 cameras that I have on hand that I could eliminate the PFA130-E from the "accessory stack". Here is what I ended up with: PFB303S-> PFA111 - PFA106 -> T2231 camera

I think we have a winner, thanks!
