    Choppy HLS stream in Home Assistant (UI3 smooth) – recent change?

    An HLS stream should in theory be smoother than most streaming in UI3 because it isn't trying to do low latency, so it might not be coded to be so eager to drop frames. But yes the startup delay is huge because BI needs to fully encode one or two chunks of video which will be as long as the...

    Choppy HLS stream in Home Assistant (UI3 smooth) – recent change?

    Not that I know of. Default streaming 0 encoder settings should be fine (but you'll want to assign a more useful bit rate target probably). Not that I know of, but HLS is not commonly used with Blue Iris so it does not get a lot of attention. I do think Blue Iris's RTSP server is generally going...

    Sounds like a failure in Blue Iris most likely unrelated to Windows Update.

    Blue Iris UI3

    What exactly are you asking? Blue Iris is not designed to record audio separately. This setting in UI3-325 (released 13 days ago) is what I was referring to, which lets you open MP4 clips in a new web browser tab in order to bypass the limitations of Blue Iris's MP4 streaming. The setting is...

    Blue Iris UI3

    As far as I can tell, Blue Iris just doesn't honor the aspect ratio that UI3 requests anymore for timeline group video. I don't remember when this broke. It seems fine in 5.9.9.98, 6.0.1.8 and 6.0.4.4 but broken in more recent versions. If you want to contact Blue Iris Support they should be...

    Blue Iris UI3

    Blue Iris currently does not support remote streaming audio from an MP4. In the latest version of UI3 you can have UI3 open MP4 files natively which bypasses Blue Iris's streaming pipeline, if you really need the audio. But then the video player is separate from UI3, so it is not very well...

    Recommendation for horse arena cam to record rides

    I don't know if you're going to have a good time relying solely on PTZ auto-tracking for this. It'll work great sometimes, and in my experience they move smoothly enough, but sometimes it'll just be looking the wrong way. I'd recommend at least one fixed camera that sees the entire arena. A...

    Is my Dahua DVR being hacked?

    It looks like certainly the result of your DVR being hacked. Seeing 127.0.0.1/localhost in the log indicates that it probably wasn't even a simple authentication bypass, but rather they got enough control over the DVR (e.g. via an SSH connection or some other kind of command injection that...

    Cant Figure It Out - Blue Iris Alerts - Going Nuts

    I believe that is correct. You don't need to enter anything there. Tailscale IP can go in both fields if you keep tailscale connected all the time on the phone. If you don't keep tailscale connected on the phone while at home, then you should only enter the tailscale IP in the WAN field and...

    Help with UI3 and Tailscale

    For 99.99% of users the "Bind exclusively" checkbox is just asking for issues since that prevents Blue Iris from accepting connections on all network interfaces. Leave it unchecked. There's nothing that needs to change in Blue Iris to support Tailscale or any other VPN. Tailscale IP addresses...

    Abusive Boyfriend tries to run over girlfriend who jumped out of moving car - Instead Hits a Parked Car

    The video doesn't make it clear he was trying to run her over, does it?? Looked more like she was just trying to escape and he was trying to follow and not watching where he was going well enough. Either way the guy needs one of the bigger books thrown at him I think.

    Usage by far is the most expensive part. I use a lot of electricity.

    Is Blue Iris worth pursuing for my situation, or am I pushing it beyond its practical comfort zone?

    I apologize for not being super familiar with cloned camera behavior but I am not sure if your clones are actually sharing the decoder there. 1073.8 MP/s is a lot of video being processed, and you might be running into limits of memory bandwidth. If your machine is dual socket, I am pretty sure...

    HTTPS web server not starting up when Blue Iris Starts but can be started manually

    If BI runs then you should be fine. It won't be able to start if the C++ thing is not installed. It just sounds like the installation procedure was done a little sloppy; it should NOT ask you to restart before the install is fully completed but Ken likely didn't wire up the C++ redist...

    Can the cameras in BI6 not be arranged the same way as in BI5?

    Most or all of Blue Iris 6's layout differences were done in Blue Iris 5, so I'm guessing you were running quite an old version of BI 5. You're probably referring to the old "1-up", "4-up", etc options. Those are still available, but you need to click the "edit layout" button Then right...

    The future of Ubiquiti - it does not seem they will go down a slippery slope and do bad for their customers

    I am curious what is the difference between a regular network switch and one that is optimized for "AV" streaming. Because generally speaking a regular wired ethernet switch will have only a few microseconds of latency and 0% packet loss at virtually all times (unless the stuff you plug into...

    T-Mobile 5G Home Internet AND Blue Iris

    20-50 Mbps is a lot more than enough for good remote camera viewing. The performance issue is probably just from bad latency and/or packet loss. Unless your VPN solution is relayed through a third party that isn't performing well.

    UI3 doesn't switch to main stream when viewing single camera (Live View and Timeline)

    Yup I have no idea what is wrong then. Better email BI support and hopefully they will have some idea. I'm guessing they will need you to export the BI settings and send to them.

    UI3 doesn't switch to main stream when viewing single camera (Live View and Timeline)

    Also worth a look at your Streaming 0 profile configuration in Blue Iris (find this in BI Settings > Web server > Advanced) and reset that profile to defaults.
