Getting the error "Please use the Java page for this browser" when trying to access the blue iris web server page.
I'm typing blue iris web server ip and port number in the browser.
Same error on mac and windows 10.
It happens on Safari, Chrome, Firefox on mac, and on Chrome, Firefox, Edge on windows 10.
Does anybody has same issue?

note: have no issues with my android blueiris app to access the web server through vpn or lan.

This issue was resolved with Ken's support.
The problem was that the file jpegpull.htm was renamed to jpegpull2.htm for unknown reason and after rename it back the web server in all browsers working fine now

It is bizarre that the file would be renamed like that, but it sounds like you were loading default.htm which is for internet explorer only, as it brings up that message in all other browsers. The solution is to load jpegpull.htm instead (not jpegpush as the error message was suggesting --- jpegpush doesn't really work in any browser anymore).
