I have a need for a PTZ in a close up scenario - closet. Can't seem to find anything decent and looking for recommendations. I ordered a Reolink 5MB Super HD PTZ and it sucks horribly. thanks

hi, i have a question on setting up a user. i may have a misunderstanding of its use as i cannot get the desired results. i setup a user and set it to NOT admin. in addition, i selected certain camera groups that do not include the camera in question. when i test this user with the mobile app...

I just replaced my old hardware with a new system. Basically a rip/replace with same IP, network config etc. Everything worked great except that my cameras keep randomly dropping out all at once for about 5 seconds and then reconnecting. It is a dedicated hardwired network (access via wireless...

so i noticed there was an app update today. after installing it said upgrade your server software. i did (currently have 5). during this i noticed my support expired so i re-upped the yearly maintenance and support. after i paid it gave me a key but when i entered it in it said this was a...

I feel like an idiot. I cannot find how to delete a camera - disabled or not. I know it has to be right in front of me. Any help?

In reading the new version notes it mentioned a suggested VPN service for secure access. I cannot find it again and wondering if someone can point me to the information. My primary need is because my NAT/PAT gets screwed up frequently for some reason. I think it is from gaming on my network...

not sure what is going on but i have two cameras - wireless that keep dropping from BI. I have two networks - one is all wired which has most of my cameras but my internal network is wireless (how i access BI) and the two internal cameras are wireless on that same network. i noticed after one...

I am not ready to mount this camera yet so I was wondering if there was a setting to flip the image so I can set it on something rather than hang it. I cannot seem to find it if there is. Thanks DS-2CD2F42FWD-IWS

@fenderman, been a while since i have been here. installing a new illuminator and i cannot remember or find where i disable the IR on my camera. i know you told me but i searched and cannot find the posts.

on another post @possello turned me onto the http command to trigger a camera to record. i had it working but was dealing with auth issues on web interface - wanted a login first. @nayr pointed out i should turn auth off. i found you can do that for lan only so i did. i am now having issues...

It would be nice if there were some IP based triggers from an alarm system to start a camera recording (Blue Iris). Our area is getting a bit more breakins lately. I'd like to initiate all camera recordings upon an alarm system event. I guess I can see about tying them into my PC via com ports?

I just rebooted my BI server and when I launched the admin it asked to install update - 4.2.2 I think. I let it install and when it was done, I got this error trying to launch console. I rebooted to no avail. Service is running and I can access the server via my phone app so I know it is OK...

Looking to replace some foscam wireless PTZ cameras for indoors. My house is kind of dark so it needs to be able to handle that. thanks!

i have noticed this and i am not sure what to do. sometimes i will have an event occur that is longer than a few minutes and my recording skips like 2 minutes. have you seen this? camera is trigger motion set and after about 1-2 minutes it skips 2 minutes. basically 2 minutes lost even...

Troubleshooting "no signal" on HK Camera I just turned up another HK Camera this morning. It was working fine and I had to mess around. I changed resolution on the web interface and BI lost signal to the camera so I changed it back. Camera won't come back. It responds and is...

i noticed my recordings on my cameras seem to be streaking really bad. my server is @ ~ 25% right now since i am only running a portion of my cameras. i set the cameras (on camera interface) to 1920*1080 @ 25fps and allowing max br of 16Mbps. i ripped an example off of my iPad to post here...

I replaced some bullet cameras with the new HV 2342s and while the images are much clearer, the arrangement of the IR on this turret is obviously different from what I had. The placement here is the corner of my house covering the left side of my house. What would you do to resolve this IR...

Finally got my HV DS-2CD2342WD-I cameras - 6 of them. While waiting I built a Windows 10 Box with an I7-4790K, 16GB RAM, as a dedicated machine for BI. Started hooking up cameras yesterday and when I got to about 4 I realized my box was maxing CPU out. I went ahead and connected them all to...

finally got my cameras and i started setting up my system again. this was already installed and basically waiting on cameras. doing some testing i wanted to do a playback and found that the playback files do not exist. i just updated to the latest version last night as it prompted me to. my...

I would like to store all pertinent files to a NAS that is hidden in the event my PC is stolen. Which folders need to be stored on the NAS that would allow me to attach and view the videos from a new pc in this scenario. thanks

Hey all from Texas. I set in settings to email me on new posts but don't get emails. Checked spam, not there

My POC is done. Almost ready to move to my designated PC from my laptop. Do I need to email the developer to get my code reset when I am ready? thanks.

i have an issue with one camera (4 on my test setup currently) that won't seem to trigger and record on motion detection. am i correct in that as i have read all motion detection happens in software so camera settings on the camera itself are a non factor? (reasonably speaking). if so, i have...

thoughts on the blemish? it is not there in the daytime. i moved the camera right because at first i thought the washout was from the camera pointing directly at and reflecting off of the taillights of the SUV. moving right you can see the car now clear but the blemish moves. think it is IR...

Hey all, new here. For reasons I won't go into I purchased this in haste. http://www.ebay.com/itm/290975419100 everything seemed to work OK albeit the NVR was a PITA to setup. As I feared one of the most important features to me - search/playback is pretty much unusable. Camera seem fine...
