^^ That is very informative on how push works from the camera to the iPhone APP. Thanks MakeItRain.
Wow, didn’t know that. What app receives the push notice in iOS? I’m on Synology Surveillance Station myself, so all camera notifications happen within those applications.
Does the camera output any IP packets on IVS triggers at all? A while back someone wrote a Python script to poll the camera for IVS events, then publishing the responses using MQTT: https://ipcamtalk.com/threads/trigger-blue-iris-with-ivs.17303. I sort of planned to make something out of that but never got around to, accepting the rather bad motion detection situation instead.
Holy shit guys. I FINALLY got IVS crossline push notification to work!!!
FWIW, there is a part of ONVIF called Pull-Point Subscriptions that lets apps (like Blue Iris) subscribe to cameras and get all of their events. Using this, my BI is able to see PIR alerts from my 1831C-PIR as well as Intrusion Zone alerts (with a Human/Motor Vehicle filter) from a 5442-AS-LED.As far as I know, notifications for IVS events require a Dahua NVR (maybe Blue Iris handles it too?) because those events are not sent over ONVIF.

That would be awesome (at least for the folks that have seen how much better IVS can be vs. basic motion detection).The small project I would take on if I get the time is to use the Python script to poll the camera(s) and use the Surveillance Station API to trigger alerts. That would probably work pretty well as a workaround.
By the way, the IVS human and Automobile filters work as designed.
If you set it for human, nothing else picked up.
If you set it for Automobile, nothing else is picked up.

If the camera keep dropping, please check the power if the right one, 12V2A power adapter or standard POE (802.3af), and check the cable too, try to test with a new cable.
You also can try to make a hard reset on the camera and test it.
Your run is likely too long and the voltage is dropping. Use an 802.3 switch or injector.Thanks, I have tried 2 x 12v 2amp power adapters and a few different network cables. I guess I'll try it on a different network at home, but unfortunately it seems it is most likely faulty

i understand, that is why I wrote the first part of the post. The camera is fine, its user error. Your run is too long and you are not supplying the proper voltage to the camera.Thanks, but I am not using PoE at the moment.

I always err on the side of user error when you dont specify your setup and particularly new users who use 12v rather than doing it clean with poe. Did you make the cable yourself? if yes did you use the 568 standard? How are you connecting the power supply to the camera?My run? It is literally a 1m network cable into a switch, the network cable also works on everything else.
The power supply is outputting just over 12v, it is 2 amp. The camera only needs 1amp. I also have access to multiple PSU's and changing them doesn't make a difference.
I do not think it is a power issue because the camera can go down for as little as 1 second or be down for 30+ seconds. I'd be surprised if it could boot back up in 1 second if it was not receiving enough power?
