Uninstalled/Reinstalled BlueIris app on iPhone XS running IOS 16.5 and have GeoFence changing between Hold (red square) Profile 1 and Hold (red square) Profile 2. Is there any reason to use Run (green triangle) instead? They seem interchangeable to me??

I have a simple set up. Two profiles: 1 Away and 2 Home. I have one iPhone running v 2.03.07. I want email alerts and push notifications when iPhone is out of geofence. Unfortunately no matter what I do profile always defaults to 1 Away. Both the iPhone app and the PC server side app show...

I've had good luck with Samsung's cloning software so I've put OS for my various PCs on Samsung EVO SSDs of various generations 850 860 870. My boxes have easy swappable external 2.5" drive drawers. If something goes wrong I just shut down, swap the OS drive and reboot. Having different...

Not sure I understand your question about build. My PC is an i9 running BlueIris. The camera (hikvision iDS-2CD7A46G0/P-IZHSY) has developed a IR filter sticking problem. My solution is currently to leave it in b/w night mode 24/7. Setting up the detection zone in the camera's software was a...

Camera's web interface can record 30fps h.264 direct to PC HDD with no dropouts, but I gave up and changed to 20 fps. At 20 fps Blue Iris recordings aren't dropping frames. 20 fps will give camera at least two good frames at speeds of 60 mph or six frames at my street's typical speeds.

I've been running a Hikvision iDS-2CD7A46G0/P-IZHSY with Blue Iris for six days. I've got it mounted 38 degrees offset to a section of straight road about 30 meters distant. Have mounted a generic "850nm 6 LEDs 130 Feet 60 Degree Wide Angle IR Illuminator for Night Vision" next to the camera...

I'm just a few days into setting up a iDS-2CD7A46G0/P-IZHSY. My camera came new from BH with firmware V5.7.80 build 220610. I don't see any firmware upgrade provision on either page now...

So you're supposed to deactivate your license before changing just one thing in your PC? The thing most likely to fail in your PC is the HD/SSD. When that happens how are you going to deactivate the license?

After months of stable running, my dedicated i9 box went from ~50% cpu usage to alternating between 50% and 90% after a Windows update. While at 90% CPU recordings are missing audio, and frames. Figured no problem, exported the configuration file and went back to a cloned drive backup. Blue...

I export entire direct to disk clips from Blue Iris v5.3.1.5 without re encoding. Trying to edit them with Blackmagic Davinci Resolve v17.3.1 and find audio at end of some clips is truncated. The amount of truncation varies. On one 10 minute clip a minute of audio is missing, on another just...

I started having issues with a Hikvision DS-2CD2347G1-LU 4 MP ColorVu Fixed Turret Outdoor Network Camera. Could log in, but camera wouldn't accept change from h.265 to h.264 or any other adjustments. Camera would time out and/or report network irregularities. Tried different cable, different...

They missed an opportunity. With a different housing form factor the cameras could be a couple inches apart for stereoscopic vision. Just think of the VR headaches possible with sharp grayscale in one eye and ghosty color in the other!

Is there a CPU (recent) that has BOTH quad channel memory AND Quick Sync onboard GPU? Thanks

Dahua N53AJ5Z ip camera with onboard mic offers AAC audio encoding. Will Blue Iris handle AAC encoded audio? Thanks

Separate IR light sources solve the spider problem and red (white) eyes too. Search Amazon for "IR Illuminators"

HikVision DS-2CD2347G1-LU has IR capability, just doesn't have an IR illuminator (spider attractor).

HikVision DS-2CD2347G1-LU and its internal microphone is giving me much better sound using 256kbps 44.1kHz MP3 than my other cameras with external mics and G711.ulaw. I couldn't get PCM to work with Blue Iris, but the 256 MP3 is great. Edit for clarity: Blue Iris will work with 256 MP3.

I use heavy landscape lighting copper conductor for 12volt runs. For power supply Meanwell makes a myriad of solutions. Note that low landscape lighting kit transformers output A/C to filament bulbs. You want D/C. Look for LED waterproof one of suitable wattage.

Blue iris v5 CPU usages goes to 100% and all camera windows change to “No Signal” after several hours/days of uptime. Restarting machine or force quitting BI from task manager fixes it. This started happening on v4 so I crossed fingers and updated to v5.3.1.5 but am having same problem...

My Windows 10 is a clean install not an upgrade from 7.

I'd get two switches and keep them separated by fiber for surge/lightning protection. Netgear GS510TP POE can be found on eBay for <$100.

Moving from Windows 7 to 10 I am unable to get Blue Iris to play audio live or from recorded clips. The audio is there and it plays fine from iPhone Blue Iris app both live and clips. Where do I find the codec to install? I've tried the recommended K-Lite Codec Pack, the mega pack, installed...

^^ this is correct, I tested my TP-Link MC220L convertors and 100 won't work. There's a model MC100CM with 10/100Mbps specs.

If your switch doesn't have SFP port, you'll need two media convertors.

I recently lost some outdoor cameras and POE switches to lightning. Fortunately I'd isolated the switches serving those cameras with a short length of fiber optic cable. Setup is cleaner if your switch has SFP port(s) as you'll only need one media converter...

I've used a FS726TP V1H2 sporadically for two years (eBay score $40 with two GBICs) and it works well, but it is really noisy compared to my newer POE+ NETGEAR 16-Port GS418TPP or NETGEAR 8-Port GS510TP. If 8 ports is enough GS510TP are going for <$100 on eBay.

Was successfully using Blue Iris for over a year to upload jpg images to a web server. Now the uploading stops after a few hours. Nothing I do in Blue Iris can get it to start sending images again. Restarting computer get it working again. Ideas? Work arounds? Help.

I don't fully understand the diagrams or mode explanations, looking at the BH product photos just confuses me more. I need an IR illuminator that will use one existing POE+ ethernet cable from Netgear GS418TPP POE+ switch to connect/power camera and power external IR LED illuminator without any...

Not sure I'd spend the extra money over the smaller fixed 4MP Hikvisions for general security monitoring purposes. But if you're looking for the ultimate nest box camera the DS-2CD2642FWD-IZS will focus down to very short distances and yield some amazing images. Something this camera has over...
