Recommendation for a fisheye camera that is supported by Blue Iris

[janimator0]

I've been using Bllue Iris for a while now and am very happy with it. Is there a recommended FishEye camera that is supported by Blue Iris.? I want it for general indoor security purposes

You would need a fisheye camera that can dewarp the image in the camera...blue iris cannot do client side dewarping...I dont know of anyone successfully using a fisheye with blue iris.

Just curious why dewarping is needed. couldn't it just display the whole circle image?

Might this be a compatible camera? FE8171V Fisheye Network Camera. Here's an example video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=ncluPtyUOEk

It might be able to display the "circle" but that defeats much the purpose of fisheye..you want to be able to get into the image an manipulate it.
