It looks like the latest version of BI (that included Sentry API updates according to the changelog) broke Sentry integration. All my cameras are erroring with "Sentry Server Error 400" Anyone else seeing this issue? Thank you!

Hi, I got a cheap RTSP+ONVIF camera from Amazon and I am able to connect to the RTSP stream (video+audio) using VLC Player by using the following URL: http://192.168.1.62:554/live/ch0 and then typing the username+pass as per the camera manual. I am running VLC from the same PC that runs BI...

Hi, I am looking for a small camera that would be easy to hide, or at least won't draw too much attention that will work with Blue Iris for indoor use. Any type of connectivity is ok. Ideally would love to have audio support too. Needs to be pretty small. Any ideas? Thank you! PP

Hi, Does anyone know of any outdoor POE cameras with built-in PIR triggering? I would like to use them with my Blue Iris setup (similar to how the DS-2CD2432F-IW PIR integrates with Blue Iris but outdoor). I currently have 6 DS-2CD2332-I cameras deployed outdoor, but I get so many false...

Ok this is a strange one. I wonder if anyone has any experience with this issue. I get a lot of email alerts from Blue Iris throughout the day and when I access the emails from Gmail (web client) it does an awesome job of grouping all the email alerts for one camera under the same...

Hi, My entire BI camera set goes crazy when clouds pass-by or when strong winds move trees that create moving shadow patterns on the ground (I am filtering the trees using motion zones). I attached a sample video (the trees should not be the issue as they are outside of the zone, it is really...

Cameras like the DS-2CD2432F-IW have a setting under System -> Service -> Enable IR Light And BI iOS has a button for IR on/off. Is there any way to make BI iOS able to control the 2CD2432F's IR light? Thanks! PP

I wrote to support yesterday but did not hear back yet. I am wondering if anyone else here ever used the Limit IP Address feature with ^ in it. Basically how it used to work was that if you put ^192.168.1.2 in the Limit IP Address setting it would allow all web requests from that IP address to...

Hi, If you own a DS-2CD2532 did you ever see such cracks in the camera's body/cover? It has been there for a few months and I just noticed the cracks. I think it must be pressure applied by the security screws but can't be sure. Do you know if it is possible to purchase a replacement cover...

Hi, I recently got a new DS-2CD2332-I and (my bad) failed to notice, before I ordered it, that it does not have built in Alarm I/O like the rest of my Hikvision cameras (I have the 2532 and 2432s). I really like the 2332, it doesn't suffer from the IR bleeding that I constantly fight with on...

When I click on the 'Line' drop down I only see "1", do you know how to add multiple lines? The help files says up to 4 lines are possible. Clicking on the 'Draw Area' button again just brings up line #1 again. Camera is DS-2CD2532F-IS with firmware V5.2.5 build 141201 Thanks!

My most recent Hikvision install (DS-2CD2532F-IS) is triggering a lot of false motion detection events due to ambient light changes (sun and cloud transitions). Is there any way to prevent these light-change based false positives but still be able to detect (pure) motion? My motion detection...

Hi, I would love to hear recommendations about my current front door setup (photos attached). I mounted it to the soffit above my front door. I love the picture quality but a little disappointed with the horizontal, but even more with the vertical angle of view. I was hoping to cover more...

Hi, This forum was amazingly helpful with a previous thread I opened with a similar question, and helped me pick 2 hikvision cube cameras for indoor use. This time I want to add a few outdoor cameras with the following features: Outdoor use Wi-fi Wide angle (this one is important and...

Hi, I truly appreciate any help. It took me a while to find this forum. I currently use Blue Iris with 2 foscam cameras but would like to replace them with something smaller and less conspicuous. Ideal features: Indoor use Wifi preferred (but Ethernet is ok too) Wide angle (this one is...
