I use Blue Iris to auto post snap shots to my website at specified intervals. I do not need remote access to the cams. If I only access the cams from the home network, do I really need to use port forwarding?

I have 6 Foscam18910W cams at 2 locations. Recently a couple cams have gone dark. If I sign in and check IPCam only the active cams show. If I power down the cam it seems to be fine for a few days or so. Is there any way to set the cam to do an auto reboot at a specific time or if communication...

Does anyone know if Blue Iris has an Optical Zoom feature that can be integrated with the auto pan preset function. It would be great to pan and then zoom in or out. Any ideas are appreciated.

I have 2 identical Foscam cameras set up. The first camera goes through the presets and pans every 10 minutes to the next preset and uploads a picture through FTP to my web site. The second cam does everything but "Pan" through the presets. I tap the Preset setting in Blue Iris and it does...

I have my cam set up to do 6 presets and cycle through them throughout the day. Is there a way to add the digital zoom feature to a preset? I'd like to go to a preset and then Zoom in, go to the next preset and zoom out, and so on.

I've watched a couple vids on Profiles and scheduling but it's a little unclear. Are these options primarily for video recording? I have the cam set up to take a picture and update my website every 10 minutes. I would like to stop the snaps and upload process after 6:pm and start at 9:am. Is...

Is there a way to backup the Blue Iris settings for the cams? Considering the number of cams I'm working with, I may move Blue Iris it's own computer. I really don't want to go through all the setup again for each cam. Is there a file that can be copied over to the new computer that has all the...

I have cams the pan to a preset every 10 minutes and also upload a snapshot every 10 minutes. Is there any way to synchronize these to actions ? Not being in sync can make the image wait up to 19 minutes before changes are visible. Thanks for any suggestions.

I have 3 cams at one location and then 2 more at another location. I am controlling the panning of the cam every 10 minutes and also doing a snapshot and upload every 10 minutes. It works fine but I wonder, is Blue Iris constantly connected to the remote cams or is it just a command issued every...

Just loaded Blue Iris and it is a great software, except I'm having issues with the "post" file names. I add both the "&Cam" and "&Item" options so I can post multiple rotating images to my website. Blue Iris creates files "Cam1 Item001.jpg". The problem is the "Space" between Cam1 and Item...

I am so close. I set up the cam to got to 5 different Presets, take a picture wait 10 minutes and go to the next Preset and then loop. I used POST to send the pictures to a local directory on my computer to make sure it was working. My problem is with the FTP function. Set up FTP and tested and...

I have set up my Foscam cam to cycle through 7 different preset positions with Blue Iris. Every other function I need is already on the Foscam software. Does anyone know if there is a utility or a way to create a macro program to cycle through the preset cam positions. Blue Iris is very complete...

I'm trying to set up 2 ipcams that will point to 1 position and then 5 minutes later point to another and then a third. After that it will go back to position 1 and loop through the 3 again. I've tried Blue Iris but I'm having a bit of trouble getting the preset programs to continually loop...

This is a very good camera and I can easily send pictures to auto update my web site but I have not found an app to take pictures every 30 minutes and put them on my own network drive. This would seem to be such a simple task compared to FTP to the server. I want to write to my local drive so I...
