    Recommend a workflow (alerts, remote viewing and storage) for x4 cams

    Hi all I have x4 Dahua cams and a 4th Gen i7 Dell Optiplex running BI. I’ve had this setup for quite a while but I never got time to get a “system” going for alerts / remote viewing / storage. I also have a Synology Nas (Ds218play) with a 2TB WD Red. Separately I have a 4TB WD purple and a...

    Need a reversing or backup cam (pref wireless) for my van

    thanks matt, i did look at some yt videos for wired installation. Doing so put me off, as some people have trouble routing wires through bodywork, especially where insulation type materials exists. Understand that it needs power source in any case, but that should be a simpler task to tap into...

    Need a reversing or backup cam (pref wireless) for my van

    Bought a new to me van which really needs a reverse or backup cam (depending on which side of the pond you’re on). Are Wi-Fi models worth considering? Any particular brands ?

    I’ve Forgotten how to install cams!

    I’m afraid to try that in the event I can’t reconnect as I currently have no alternative of viewing other than Remote Desktop and I’m away for a week

    I’ve Forgotten how to install cams!

    Does anyone know if I can use google Remote Desktop to change IP of router etc to 192.168.0.1 and check there for the new cam or will I lose my remote connection?

    I’ve Forgotten how to install cams!

    I am not at home now but I have a sense that the cam is on 192.168.0.x Rather than 192.168.1.x Is that plausible?

    Mounting a Turret in the garden - away from house building - ideas?

    Hi All I have another turret Dahua on the way specifically theHDW5442. My current setup is of x3 other Dahua starlights all mounted on external walls of my house pointing out. I plan to install this new camera at the end of my garden (25 ft down from the back door of the house), looking back...

    Hubitat and Blueiris

    EDIT: All is working fine again. I am not sure what happened but strongly suspect finger trouble on my part. I will try increase attention to documenting the scenario if things go wrong. Thanks again! Very excited about this Hubitat System! (And BI of course!)

    Got it sorted now. Worked when using mjpg and also in BI authentication settings I had to allow all LAN connections straight through access. I had several IP addresses added individually of all devices (including HE) on my network setup but that didn't work. Don't know why. But I'm happy now...

    when I click on the image it just brings up a larger image. Although, I have it setup to be an image, not a video stream as the video stream doesn't show anything at all.

    thanks. I have managed to get an image to appear that will refresh every 1 second. No such luck with the video feed.

    where do you place that address within Hubitat?

    It appears as though Hubitat is fast gaining momentum on the home automation scene as a do it all Hub. I have searched the forum and cannot locate much info on integration with Blueiris and if this is even possible. Does anybody know if BI can talk to the Hubitat hub? thanks
