Hello All ! I am looking to replace my sff BlurIris pc with something more powerful. Today, I have 6 Hikvision and Lorex cameras feeding H.265 video streams into BluIris. The cameras are set to record 24x7 with Direct to Disk recording to optimize performance. I am looking to see if the...

Thats awesome. Can you please share some details on how you got the two working together, and which components you used ? Thanks !

These I already have.

Hello Everyone ! I am looking to add a floodlight camera above my garage door. I am looking for something that would support 24 hr recording to an external NVR (Blue Iris). The eufy Floodlight Cam 2 Pro looks interesting, but it does not support extra storage, 24x7 recording or pulling an RTSP...

@ The Windows firewall is disabled. To see if it makes any difference, i also enabled the firewall and restarted the tftp uploader, and got the windows firewall prompt you describe. However, both the times, I get the exact same issue of the camera not wanting to talk to the tftp uploader

Hi Alastair, I tried the 12V adapter method. I see that the camera gets the IP address 192.0.0.64 (i can ping it from the pc running the tftp tool), but the camera never attempts to connect to the tftp server. The camera gets the IP address of 192.0.0.64 for exactly 14 seconds Thanks !

The TFTP client window shows " TFTP server[192.0.0.128] initialized", and just stays there, when left alone, even for an hour. The Windows firewall popup doesnt come up on my system, as the firewall is disabled for all networks I have the PC and camera connected to a juniper poe switch. They...

I tried the tftp method. Unfortunately, the camera never gets the IP address of 192.0.0.64 I see the camera using the SADP tool, but with an IP address of 192.168.1.222. I am also unable to ping that address, even when my computer is in the same subnet. Could it be that the camera is in some...

I havent checked for an internal reset button. The camera does not have a microsd slot,, so no reset buttons there. Would an internal reset button be inside the main housing ? How should I go looking for it ? The firmware is v 5.4.5 Are there any instructions on how to do this ? Would this...

Hello ! I am trying to reset the password on my DS-2CD2432WD-I camera. The Password reset code method does not work for me. Would I be able to use this method to reset the camera to defaults ? Thanks !

Hi, I have a HikVision camera in the garage that sends its video feed over to Blue Iris. I have a rather unique requirement, where I would like Blue iris to record video only when the garage door is open. I have a z-wave sensor on my garage door, and use that sensor within Home Assistant, to...

Thank @devastator Can the duplicate cameras be hidden ? I'd prefer to only show the four cameras on the screen. With setting up the duplicate cameras, what kind of increase would I see on the CPU utilization ? I am running BlueIris on a Dell T30, with 8 GB RAM.

Hi, I have 4 cameras reporting into Blue Iris and I have configured motion zones for areas of interesting activity. I am very interested in integrating my Blue Iris installation, into my home automation tool. One use case that I have, is to have perform an action (like turn on a light, and...

Thanks @fenderman I'll certainly try the Zone crossing alerts in Blue iris. Does Blue iris have any alerts for person detection within a zone ? The kind of alerts I would like to see are - a person entering the gate - a person with a specified radius of my camera location (i can define a...

I have integrated three HikVision DS-2CD2335FWD-I Cameras into Blue Iris (v 4.7) I have enabled both basic and smart events on the cameras. How do I get HikVision to trigger recordings when any of these smart events are triggered ? I would like to trigger alerts when faces are detected or when...

Thanks @fenderman

As others in this thread have mentioned, I am just about taking the plunge into Blue Iris. I have three 3MP cameras, with the option of adding upto 2 more That said, would a workstation like this work to run Blue Iris ? Lenovo ThinkCentre M93P Desktop i7-4770 3.40GHz 16GB DDR3 1TB HDD Win10...

Thanks ! I will do that.

I am planning to pull the trigger on purchasing 3 HikVision cameras. Is there any way I can tell, by looking at the camera details, if the camera is the english language version (and a firmware upgrade wont reset the language settings back to Chinese), or if it a modified firmware that has...
