    Delayed alerts on iOS app

    I'm having an issue where my alerts are 8-10 minutes delayed in reaching my iPhone. For example, I just drove up my driveway at 8:30 AM Eastern and did not get an alert on my phone until 8:38 AM Eastern. I can walk around my house and trigger all the cameras, but all the alerts are delayed...

    Anyway to Setup Universal Alerts / Notifications?

    Please let me know if this is possible - and how ya'll do it :) THX! I know we caan setup multiple Alerts, for multiple things but hoping there would be an easier (better) way to do ALL cams via a template, or some universal setting. GoaI : BI sends multiple parameters to a 3rd part system...

    Alert sounds on the Android app

    Does anyone know where the alert sound files are stored in Android? I would like to replace some of them so that I can customize alerts with sounds that I prefer.

    Profiles & Schedules

    For the past several months I have been going back and forth in an effort to understand Blue Iris Profiles and Schedules. For me it is overly complicated and seriously confusing - I may be over thinking it but the end result for me each time is 'it makes no sense." I have read the Help section...

    Motion Detection

    Hello, How do you set-up your motion detection to ignore tree limbs blowing in the breeze or when shadows on the ground move from sunlight shining through trees? I've tried changing the sensitivity and contrast and nothing seems to work. Thanks, DT

    Using an Alert to wake-up a monitor

    I'm hoping someone might be able to help with this conundrum. I'd like my BI monitor to be able to go into sleep mode, but be waken up by a BI alert. Obviously the usual way to wake up a monitor (Win 8.1) is to move the mouse or press a key on the keyboard. So I tried a few different macro...

    Multi-camera playback (for Alerts)

    Finally got my v4 platform up - amazing how the CPU usage goes down when you have a decent CPU and present-day o/s. ;) For some reason I thought playing back Alerts would display all my cameras - do I need to make a camera group or something for that, or is it not yet a feature? I wouldn't...

    Any way to play an alert sound when "Viewer" icon is active?

    Did not find this possibility discussed anywhere. I'd like Blue Iris to play a sound whenever someone is attempting to access the web server. The "Viewer" icon illuminates when this happens, but to draw my attention, I'd like an audible signal. Any Blue Iris setting to permit this?

    Blue Iris Alert Images into Sub-Folder by Camera Name

    I want to have all Alert images into subfolder by the camera name rather than one large directory. I have figured out how to do this for the "new" recordings folder by using the &CAM variable, but there doesn't seem to be an option to do this for the Alerts folder. Any ideas?
