    I tried several combinations of actions that used to cause the error, with none of those actions causing any problems, so all looks good. Thx for the quick turnaround.

    The error doesn't occur during the actual clip deletion, but just after the deletions while refreshing the browser. It usually takes three refreshes to clear the error. I use two different streaming profiles: one for low resolution wireless tablet monitors, and another for wired PC...

    Blue Iris UI3

    Hello. I went back a few months of forum posts to see if there were any mentions of the below error, but did not see anything posted. I'm using the latest BI version 5.7.6.7. The error has been occurring for at least the past 5 versions of BI. It occurs when I try to delete clips. I can...

    MQTT Alert messages from Blue Iris - not firing?

    That's pretty slick. How is the message received time on your phone (compared to the event) when sending a message from HA to your mobile app. I like that you can launch a clip on the app from an alert jpg. What player are you using? How are you fire-walling BlueIris on your LAN?

    MQTT Alert messages from Blue Iris - not firing?

    Yeah, DNS at a top level is easy. Layers down it's black magic. So you're saying that macros and JSON payloads do work? If so, I'll have to try that as they previously did not work.

    MQTT Alert messages from Blue Iris - not firing?

    I noticed with Camera Alerts that if any of the conditions are false, and there are many conditions, then the alert will not fire. Which gives you a fine grain adjustment, but can also easily cause failure. When you run the test on the alert itself, does it fire (the lightning bolt icon)? You...

    MQTT Alert messages from Blue Iris - not firing?

    Here is my MQTT set up. Make sure that the Mosquitto server IP and port is correct in BlueIris. It must match your Mosquitto config.

    MQTT Alert messages from Blue Iris - not firing?

    Try just using "BlueIris/YourCameraName/Alert" and for the payload use "Off". All without quotes and substitute the name of the camera for YourCameraName. If it works, then you can be sure that it's the use of macros and/or json payloads that is causing the problem.

    MQTT Alert messages from Blue Iris - not firing?

    I was never able to get macros to work with BlueIris MQTT. The same holds true for JSON payloads. I use simple topics and simpler payloads. A pain yes, but it does work for what I need it to do. The LWT comes from the watchdog tab online/offline trigger. Where are you picking up the data...

    MQTT is not that difficult to understand so I'd say jump in by googling. Perhaps "MQTT home assistant". That should give you the basics. Web socket is a protocol much like http and there's plenty of info on the web if you want to deep dive. Needless to say, start by configuring Blue Iris...

    If you're using mosquitto as your broker, then place the following two lines in the config file: listener 9001 protocol websockets This allows port 9001 to function as the websocket listener. Then configure your connection in the UI3 "UI settings" at the top right menu. My configuration...

    Blue Iris UI3

    Hello, I just stumbled upon the MQTT feature of UI3 and I have it working to remote control the UIs of my monitors. Very cool. If possible, I'd like to see an added command of a LWT when a browser closes on the UI, or conversely, if the UI is launched in a browser. Perhaps "Closed" and...

    IP Cam Talk Custom Community DeepStack Model

    You could also try mapping the network endpoint and then use the mapped path as your custom folder path. That way the custom model sits on the same endpoint as the deepstack instance. However, there are probably tradeoffs in pushing large data sets across the network instead of using a local...
