    MyCommerce/Digital River meltdown

    Just to be 100% sure. If you paid for maintenance prior to July 1, 2024, that payment was successful. Correct? (Good advice about removing the auto payment from PayPal, which I used to handle automatic renewals. I had to remove PayPal as a payment option for this vendor. This worked instead...

    Thank you so much!!! Exactly what I needed.

    Alternative to Email-to-Phone SMS/MMS delivery (T-Mobile issue - for now)

    T-Mobile's (and perhaps other carrier's) email-to-phone is not reliable and may go away. One explanation of the problem I've heard is that the FCC has mandated that carriers scan these messages for spam. The systems are not up to the task. I'm in search of something that will reliably send...

    Blue Iris Tools not detecting that Blue Iris is down

    I am running BI 5.3.7.12 x64 (Not as a service) and suddenly BI Tools is not restarting BI after it goes down. BI Tools show that BI has been found. However BI Tools still indicates that BI is running, even though Windows Task Manager shows that it has been killed. Any ideas on what is...

    Disable alerts based upon temperature/weather?

    Thanks for the quick reply. I'll look into the http commands. I do have the global schedules relative to sunrise/down, but do not know how to set the individual camera (overrides global) schedule relative to sunrise/down. Regrettably the fog/condensate covers the entire zones of both cameras :(

    Disable alerts based upon temperature/weather?

    My next door neighbor's behavior has changed and large number of alerts are generated. Long story short: new family moved next door, runs dryer at night, cold weather causes a fog/condensate that triggers motion sensor. I've changed the two affected camera's individual schedules to ones with...

    Need more POE ports, can I just add a second POE switch?

    Here is what my first switch plugs into TP-Link 5 Port 10/100 Mbps Fast Ethernet Switch | Desktop Ethernet Splitter | Ethernet Hub |, my BLue Iris computer also plugs into it.

    Need more POE ports, can I just add a second POE switch?

    Thanks! So your second poe switch just plugs into one of the first switch's regular ethernet ports? My first switch has 8 poe ports and 2 regular ethernet ports.

    Need more POE ports, can I just add a second POE switch?

    I have an unmanaged 8-port switch and need two more ports. Would there be any problems/secrets in adding a second unmanaged 8-port switch? The second switch would connect to the same Ethernet hub the first switch uses. (I found a few posts but I wanted to double check). TIA

    Easy way to trigger the Inactivate schedule?

    Whow! I didn't realize the uI3 interface had that. As the great golfer Roberto De Vicenzo said after signing an incorrect scorecard that cost him the Master's tournament "What a stupid I am". Thanks!!!

    Easy way to trigger the Inactivate schedule?

    If I'm working outside I'd like to enable the Inactive schedule via a smart phone without having to use my laptop to log in to BI's administrative interface. I suppose the more general question would be how to enable a particular schedule because you'd like to enable the proper one when you are...

    Heat Tolerant WiFi Camera for Attic installation?

    Surprisingly enough I have an IP2M-841 that I'm currently using and was hoping to upgrade :), Perhaps treating it as disposable is the best bet?

    Heat Tolerant WiFi Camera for Attic installation?

    I have a rat problem, there I said it. They are in my attic. I'm trying to get recommendations for a heat-tolerant wide-angle (PTZ preferable) , wifi camera to put in my attic. I'd put an older Foscam indoor camera up there and it lasted a couple of years and then died. I'm now looking for a...
