We have a remote cabin that has 4 cameras that we monitor. We recently switched to t-mobile home internet and found out they don't allow any port forwarding. We don't have any computers at the remote cabin, so, can't run any remote software. We do have an Asus router (88 model) that is used...

My bi is getting progressively worse and acting odd. It started by not showing clips from the stored, new, and alerts folders. I verified those folders had data in them, yet, bi said no clips existed. The day before there were over 50k clips. So, I set new folders for the new+alert+storage...

I have an Asus RT-AC3100 router, which can be configured with VPN server. If I setup the VPN server on the router, do I need any external VPN service? I have a subscription with PIA VPN and use a client VPN setup on my router to the PIA VPN servers, but, don't know the benefits/consequences...

I just went through the Windows 11 update on my pc. I currently have about 15 cameras being monitored. If I double click on a camera bi used to open a full screen view of the camera. Now it simply does nothing. If I select "solo selected camera" I can get the full screen view of each camera...

I selected the "connections" tab in bi status and it is showing some connections I don't recognize. You can see the connections in the attached image, but, the data is: IP: 167.248.133.53 Host: scanner-09-ch1.censys-scanner.com Anybody have any clue who these folks are and why they would be...

I took the plunge a couple weeks ago and updated to v5. The app ran smoothly for a while, now it is constantly crashing at random intervals - usually shortly after the app starts. The app fully starts, then abruptly dies. Here's the Application Error report from Event Viewer: Faulting...

Saw the Opposite sense to detect non-movemement option under the trigger tab and tried it out. Did not find anything in the help file on how this operates. I have a couple cameras that point toward a light that is going wacky - it constantly dims up and down, all night long. So, I get LOTS of...

I've got bi setup to move files from the alerts to the storage folder after one day. Looking through the Alerts folder, there are folders from way back to 2017 that bi did not delete. It appears bi moved the files but did not delete the folders. Am I missing some setting that would fix this?

I know I was able to do this in the past - rearrange the camera windows in the order I'd like. Just clicked and dragged the window to where I want it on the bi screen. Now I can't do it. Is there some switch I mystically clicked that locked the camera windows in their current positions? Any...

I've got about 15 security cameras setup to record to a Synology NAS. The cameras do their own onboard monitoring and recording to the NAS and I've got BI setup to monitor and record to the same NAS. I'm running into situations where I try to view the NAS contents via Windows Explorer and I...

I'm constantly finding BI in a recording mode on some cameras - as depicted by the red border around the clip views. However, BI isn't actually recording, there's just a red border indicating BI is recording. I'm unable to view a clip that has a red border and have to hit the stoplight to stop...

I'm consistently getting virus alerts in my BlueIris jpg files. Using AVG for virus detection (really wish i had Bitdefender!). I'm curious if any others are seeing this virus in their blueiris system?

Just did the latest update and lost 3 cameras that were working fine just before i updated. Where can I download the prior release?

Just curious what this message means, I've got over 23000 of these on one camera.

On the record settings: what is the difference between Jpeg snapshot (only when triggered) and create alert list images when triggered? I'm getting a slew of jpg images with each trigger video and have both (jpeg snapshot and alert list) setting checked. I'm thinking I only need one of those...

Newbie here, so, pardon me if this is already addressed: I am constantly finding myself thinking I should make this tweak on my camera settings and apply it to all of my cameras. Then I open up each individual camera, make the change, save, go to next camera. Is there a way to make a global...

My old security system (Lorex system) continuously recorded all cameras and overwrote older recordings as the hard drive got full. I've setup BI to record on triggers and NOT record continuously. I'm currently sitting on 10 cameras and have BI setup to store trigger recordings to a Synology...

I apologize if this is a noob question, but, I'm a noob, what can I say. In my trigger videos and snapshots, I'd like to have about a 2 second pre-trigger video and a couple snapshots as well. Would also like a few post-trigger snapshots as well. Is the video configured via the pre-trigger...

I'm a newbie to Blue Iris, so, please pardon if this has already been brought up before. I have 12 cameras, 4 of Brand A, and 8 of Brand B. I'm finding myself going through all the steps to adjust the settings of a camera (video settings, audio settings, motion/trigger settings, record...
