    Blue Iris sold out?

    That's the one I bought and used that coupon too.

    Could BlueIris 6.0 be around the corner?

    I wouldn't mind using the Reolink app if it didn't depend on Reolink cloud services and would just work locally instead. Does it?

    Could BlueIris 6.0 be around the corner?

    Hello all. Just to say that I finally bit the bullet and bough BI and been configuring it for a few days now. Everything seems to be working fine - at least compared to what I had with my previous solution - and I'm now exploring the possibilities. Happy holidays to you all!

    If you had no password defined, just press Enter and it should get you right in.

    Could BlueIris 6.0 be around the corner?

    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...

    Could BlueIris 6.0 be around the corner?

    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...

    BI hardware question

    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...

    BI hardware question

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

    Could BlueIris 6.0 be around the corner?

    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...

    DHCP or static?

    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.

    Dual NIC setup on your Blue Iris Machine

    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...

    Could BlueIris 6.0 be around the corner?

    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.

    Could BlueIris 6.0 be around the corner?

    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.
