All of a sudden, MMS alerts from my cameras are taking 1 1/2 to 5 hours to show up on my phone. They've always come thru within seconds up until a week or so ago. Messages from my wife's phone take only seconds. Anyone having the same issue? Thanks

I use the remote app. A couple of weeks ago, it was updated and displays: Update Blue Iris Please update the Blue Iris software on your PC. Certain functions may not behave properly until you do so. at startup. I am currently running BI 5.2.6.5. Is the update to 5.3.8.17 a free update? OR...

Anyone use windows 10 VPN server and client? I've opened port 1723 on my router and mapped it to my BI server - 192.168.1.22:12345. It won't connect. It asks for a user name and password. When I set up the VPN I gave permission to the user account I use when I log into the machine BI is running...

Any way to access your BI cameras from the internet if you can't open ANY ports on your router?

Hello. Over the last 5 years, I've gotten lots of good advice from the people here, so I'm going to ask another question. I'm upgrading my security cameras and hardware. I currently use BI and have found it to be an extremely powerful (and inexpensive) piece of software. I'm using Foscam cameras...

I just upgraded a win 7 machine to win 10. I'm running BI on a different machine (Win 8) at this time but I'm moving it to this new win 10 machine. I downloaded a copy, but when I tried to install it, I get this error: It may be a co-incidence but it locked up the machine and when I...

Just stopped working all of a sudden. I can log in and see the thumbnails, but when I try to look at the actual camera view, it shows a black screen, with the controls at the bottom. I'm able to use my phone's or laptop's browser to log in and that works fine. Any ideas?

I'm getting a new PC to replace the one currently running BI. What's the policy on having one copy running on two machines temporarily. Once I'm good to go on the new PC, I will remove it from the old one, but I'll most likely install it over the course of a couple of days. I'd like to keep the...

Using "Google Drive" for off site storage Hello, I'm re-setting up my BI after a system crash and am having problems getting a few things to work. I WAS using Copy.com to store the clips and snapshots in the cloud by syncing a specific folder and shooting them up to the web. They're stopping...

Had some sort of "glitch" and all my cameras stopped working in BI. After playing around trying to bring them back online without success, I re-booted the router and they came back. But, the "Settings" icon (gear) in the android app is greyed out and I can't arm the cameras remotely anymore. Is...

I'm thinking of replacing the laptop I use to run BI with a micro. Looking at the HP Pavilion Mini Desktop - 300-020. The laptop is running 3 cameras now - all Foscam FI8910Ws @ 640x480. I've purchased 4 Foscam FI9821Ps (1280x720). I'll be replacing the older 3 and adding a 4th. My laptop is...

Anyone have any experience with the Foscam FI9821P? I'm using BI with some FI8910W's but would like to upgrade to 1280x720. I'm an ex IT guy and had no problems setting mine up and opening the correct port on my router to allow access from outside my own network. The Android app is great! I've...
