    Periodic Blue Iris app crash upon opening RTSP stream from BI

    I've had this issue for a while. I've had Blue Iris support look into it, but they were unable to resolve it. Primarily because they couldn't duplicate it, though I would think that the fault offset being consistent would give a clue as to what is going wrong. What is happening is that...

    PTZ4M-25X-PV camera PTZ resetting periodically - possible firmware bug

    Purchased a PTZ4M-25X-PV. I've had it outside testing prior to install on top of a tall building. I noticed over the past couple of days that it would periodically go to the power-up preset. Looking in the logs, it says "PowerUp PTZ Operation Type:Go to Preset". This is not the same set of...

    Image stabilization on PTZ4M-25X-PV not useful

    Recently purchased a PTZ4M-25X-PV. This is the replacement for SD49425XB-HNR. I have a number of cameras scattered around cities and beaches. I've installed several SD49425XB-HNR cameras, and so far they are working well. Unfortunately, that's been discontinued, and the replacement is...

    Question about BI AI Status icons

    Can someone tell me what the two green squares icon means in AI status? I see is matches a car, but doesn't return a match as far as BI is concerned. These pop up occasionally, but there nothing in the help file that describes what some of those icons mean. Example below.

    Transferring Blue Iris to new machine

    I've got a BI system that I am going to migrate from one server to another. Currently 27 cameras. System is running under vmWare - 16 gig,16 cores - VM config and perf screenshots attached for the curious. It's been working pretty well, and I do AI on 5 of the cameras. I've read some other posts...

    Restrict user to access substream only

    Anyone know of any tricks to restrict a specific user so they can only access the substream on a Dahua - actually IPC-T2431T-AS - camera? It's no so much the video, but the audio. We've got audio enabled on only the main stream, but not the substream so If I can prevent access, that will do it...

    Snapshot URL for SD49425XB-HNR

    We have a SD49425XB-HNR that we would like to grab snapshots from. I've figured out that http://username:password@11.22.33.44/cgi-bin/snapshot.cgi?1 works, but there's a problem with permissions. If I put a user and pass in with full unrestricted permissions, it works great. I don't want to give...

    Question about SD49425XB-HNR longevity outdoors

    I see that Andy sells that as a PTZ camera. Does anyone have one that's been outdoors for a while? I'm wondering if the hardware used is stainless or if it starts rusting immediately? Intended use will be as a beach cam on the coast. I've currently got some Axis Q-6044E cameras that have started...

    Alerts being deleted and not moved

    Noticed that alerts only went back 7 days. Ultimately determined the setting "Limit clip age" under Folders -> Alerts actually controls how long Alerts are retained. The page makes it appear that it should move them to the "Stored" folder even though there's nothing actually in the alerts...

    Blue Iris alerts disappearing

    I've run into the issue of the system deleting all the alerts. You get a database error in the logs - mentions corruption detected, and proceeds to wipe the alerts. This is a 3 week old install that was running on 5.6.6. I just updated to 5.6.8.2 after it's second round of wiping the alerts last...

    Any way to default a Lorex / Flir LNB3373SB?

    Does anyone know how to default a LNB3373SB? Camera powers up, but doesn't send DHCP packets, and doesn't get an address. Camera is alive as it does go into night... You can hear the filter click, and the IR LEDs light. Network port does establish a link, and it does send packets occasionally...

    Lorex LNWDB1 Doorbell Camera

    So, I bought one of the new Lorex Doorbell cameras to give it a try as an alternative to a Ring doorbell that I recently had my mom try. It's billed as on device recording to a uSD card. Well, they have a long way to go and they better figure it out fast before their new product falls on it's...
