Cannot control infrared lights via blue iris

[HerrHS]

Dear forum,

I have a problem with the latest (4.1.5.0) Blue Iris version: I cannot control my Foscam's infrared lights via the light button. It won't work with none of my cams. However, when I log into the web-based manager I can control them and start or stop them.

Any idea what I can do to control them via Blue Iris as well?

Thank you very much!

Did it work on earlier versions for you?

Hmmm, I have Foscams working ok in BI with IR but I'm on v4.1.3.1. I might hold off on updating for now.

No, it did not work with the previous version either...

So these worked with BI 3 but not BI 4? In this post http://www.ipcamtalk.com/showthread.php/4952-Turn-on-and-off-IR-lights-with-BI-schedule
someone else was having a different issue with a Foscam and I posted my Foscam and BI settings, don't know if that is of any help or not.

Got to the ptz settings and make sure you enable it and set the proper camera type.
