Thank you. That leads me to another question - which probably is starting to get off-topic, if that's so I'd ask a mod to either let me know or split this thread to another one - which is: Is there any self-hosted solution for a doorbell cam? Can BI be used for that? Or is there any other more...

Bummer... How laggy? 0,5sec tops? Or more than that? Nooo, I don't think so. These are those sort of chinese cameras that almost force you to use their apps and ask for every permission on and then some on your phone. I set them up on a separate network from my main lan and from the internet...

Thanks. I'm just learning about push notifications - I was under the impression that they went through whatever program you were using backend server - didn't know it used google's services. I was dismissing push notifications because the few solutions I read about required me to create an...

Good evening all. What network ports are used by push notifications and the Android app? Cheers!

Well, I have a cheap (around $1.5) Android app for RTSP streams that I use with my current setup and it works perfectly with BI. Two-stream audio was exactly the reason I was going for the oficial app - It would save me the expense of installing a video doorbell - and, from what I could gather...

In case someone needs this and doesn't know about it: https://www.dhcpserver.de/cms/ A portable DHCP server for windows, great for running alongside BI or whatever Windows VMS you happen to use. Saves the configuration on a plain text file. Easy to administer, configure and backup.

Was browsing the forum and found out this thread - and I had already done this on my BI test machine (which will become my main machine soon). Cameras <-------- CCTV VLAN <-------- Ethernet Adapter 1 <- BI PC with DHCP -> Ethernet Adapter 2 ---------> Main VLAN --------> Internet I have a...

I don't doubt that for a second - the time I've spent with the trial version tells me it's a fine piece of software. But please understand: From a quick Google search, the average monthly salary in the US is around $4000, but in Portugal is around $1400 - and I don't even make it to the four...

I trying out BI for the first time - I'm almost at the end of the 15-day trial.

A question: Let's assume I buy v5 now and (I assume) I have access to all the updates during one year. That year goes by without v6 coming out - what options do I have to upgrade from v5 to v6 when it does come out? Does the one-time 1yr extension (without renewals) grant me that upgrade?

No idea - I haven't seen it yet.

That's a pity. I tried the software and it's quite good - now I'm holding onto my old setup waiting for the version 6 to come out to go ahead and purchase it.

Thanks for the heads up. Right now these cameras fit the bill while I look around - found a local website selling Dahua IP cameras at a nice price point - I'll keep an eye for a sale on any of them. I'll also be looking at other decent brands. Cheers!

Of course, in pretty much the same way a car can cost 15k or 1500k - I must find whatever fits my budget. EDIT: And I understand why you have prices without taxes on your side of the pond, but over here you pay what's on the sticker - that's why I was surprised.
