    So close with Unifi Protect

    I have a Unifi ecosystem and the mobile camera quality wildly better than blue iris. BI has a special place in my heart but if I can get protect to function with my IVS rules, I'm definitely making the switch. I will still leave BI on my server for redundancy.

    So close with Unifi Protect

    I am able to get motion detections via enabling SMD but we are still not receiving detections with IVS rules. The camera send's the standard onvif alerts with IVS enabled: RuleEngine/CellMotionDetector/Motion (basic motion) RuleEngine/LineDetector/Crossed RuleEngine/FieldDetector/Intrusion...

    New Server Build (Need input)

    I'm putting together a Sliger rack-mounted NAS built around an i5-14600K, 32 GB of RAM, and an HBA SAS/SATA controller supporting up to 12 drives. It'll mainly host Jellyfin and Blue Iris. I'm torn on the OS. Part of me wants to keep it simple with a stripped-down Windows 11 install and just...

    It looks like better ONVIF support is coming to UniFi Protect

    I’d buy a UNAS in a heartbeat if Protect would figure out motion alerts with IVS rules for third-party cameras. The Protect app is excellent, and the video quality and playback experience on my phone are miles ahead of Blue Iris. But I can’t justify dropping another $600 on AI Ports on top of...

    It looks like better ONVIF support is coming to UniFi Protect

    Basic motion alerts do work with all of my Dahua cameras but the caveat is you have to enable video detection/smart motion. Protect still does not recognize IVS rules. Using video detection caused me to get way too many false alerts.

    Cant Figure It Out - Blue Iris Alerts - Going Nuts

    Download Tailscale on both your BI machine and phone, make sure there under the same Tailscale account and it is connected on both devices. On your BI machine go to the toolbar at the bottom, click on the Tailscale icon and that is the IP you want to remember. Then in BI go to settings, web...

    It looks like better ONVIF support is coming to UniFi Protect

    I can confirm with ver. 7.1.55 Protect will not work with my line crossing IVS rules, however it will send me alerts by using the cameras generic video/smart detection but you're going to get a million false alerts.

    Cant Figure It Out - Blue Iris Alerts - Going Nuts

    I tried zerotier when I was new to all of this and could never get it to work. I have been using tailscale for over a year with practically no issues aside from an update changing my BI machines IP which was easily fixed by updating the new IP in BI and on my phones app.

    It looks like better ONVIF support is coming to UniFi Protect

    From what I was able to gather the do support the M profile. It could be a small setting I am missing but hopefully they end up being compatible I would love to be able to fully transition to Protect while not being forced to use their dog shit cameras.

    It looks like better ONVIF support is coming to UniFi Protect

    I’m on early access 7.1.55 and still not able to get any type of motion alerts to my protect with Dahua cams. I have seen recent posts on Reddit of people with cheap Tapo cams now getting onvif detections.

    Has anyone tried the PFA126 Mount?

    Ive got one, it's a tank and makes connecting and disconnecting the camera much easier especially, up on a ladder.

    NVR recommendations for Axis cam's

    A friend asked for help switching his business's cameras (only 5) to a self monitored system. He was bent over backwards by a local company and is currently paying close to $500/yr for their app and off site management that he cannot change settings on. I currently use blue iris but he is less...

    Help dialing in my T54IR-ZE S3

    I experimented a bit and found that when the camera faced the white light, it reflected off the top and sides of my head and body, making my face appear too dark at night. Although switching to IR eliminated color, the camera’s ability to project light horizontally toward me resulted in much...

    Help dialing in my T54IR-ZE S3

    I've got several cameras from Andy all on classic day/night with IR schedules. I added one recently towards my garage that has a dusk to dawn light that provides enough light the camera stays in color at night, which is fine. However when testing playback quality and facial clarity during the...

    Blue Iris not picking up up ONVIF from Dahua T54R cameras.

    Just ran into this myself. Did you go into the Alert > Actions and tell it to send a push notification or you preferred method?
