    Blue Iris Updates - Official Thread

    Happy to spend the money, this software is of much more value to me. The horros are more about my entire setup breaking due to the update. I've seen a fair share of those here, so dont want to touch what's already working.

    iOS Push Notifications have stopped working

    bummer that v4 will not get push notifications anymore. There's nothing wrong with the software, all it needs is a cert update. I think it deserves an update just for that....

    Blue Iris Updates - Official Thread

    So no more push notifications for people on v4.x? I understand its EOL but not getting push notifications for a missed cert update is a bit ridiculous.

    BlueIrisSoftware.com SSL cert expired

    The BlueIrisSoftware.com SSL certificate seems to have expired today 3/7/2019. Who do we notify? As a result the software cannot check for updates.

    Recommendations to sell my Dahua NVR

    I bought a Dahua NVR, specificallyDahua NVR 16CH 4K UHD H.265 HDMI 2 SATA P2P NVR5216-4KS2. However, I soon moved to BlueIris and have been extremely happy with it for the past few months. The NVR is just sitting there, pretty much unused. What would be a good place to sell it? It's such a niche...

    Cheapest small computer that can drive a 4K display, quietly?

    I'm running Blue Iris UI3 in Chromium on a Raspberry Pi 3 and it's driving a small HD monitor and that seems to work great. However, I want to replace the display with a much larger 4K TV. What would be a good computer dedicated for this purpose? It doesn't really need to be beefy, just enough...

    Last minute Halloween scary sound raspberry pi project

    hello folks, I have an idea for a last minute Halloween project to scare trick or treaters. My front door camera gets triggered reliably when someone enters the front yard. I would like to send a web hook/Mqtt message to a raspberry pi (which is physically connected to a little speaker) and...

    Ubiquiti just announced Unifi Protect

    UniFi Protect This looks cool. Also their NVR is so small, somewhat skeptical how many cameras can that little thing handle. Only if they supported non-Ubiquiti cameras..

    ADT selling rebranded Dahua NVR?

    ADT security basically installs a rebranded Dahua NVR and charge you a monthly fee for it? What am I missing here, why should anyone pay them a monthly fee?

    Any BI motion trigger tricks to avoid triggering on car lights?

    This camera happens to be in an unfortunate location. I’m using zones to block out cars themselves but there are a lot of false triggers due to their lights. Any BI tricks that can avoid/reduce triggering in such situations?

    CPU Usage with GUI on

    I got an HP Slim Desktop, with an i7 8700. Using Windows 10. Am a Mac guy here too, and BI is pretty high on the list of ugly windows softwares, but its worth it!

    These 2MP, Starvis sensors are the sh*t

    nah its one of the hikvision cube cam things.

    These 2MP, Starvis sensors are the sh*t

    tried out my first 2MP starvis sensor, the low light performance is beyond awesome. I feel bad that all my other cameras are 4, 6 and even 8MP, and look like garbage compared to this. Should have taken the advice in the cliff notes seriously. Here’s comparing a cheap HikVision indoor camera to...

    CPU Usage with GUI on

    Windows probably had some bad drivers out of the box. After windows updates thing seem very stable.

    Blue Iris Remote connectivity with VPN

    One additional question though fenderman, for Push notifications to work, so I need to open any ports? I suppose pushing traffic from BI to the internet shouldn't need any port forwarding, isn't it?

    CPU Usage with GUI on

    Happy to report that now even with the GUI on, CPU usage is stable between 20-30%, best of all, the fan doesn't come on!

    Blue Iris Remote connectivity with VPN

    Also, interesting thing is that even when on home wifi, the app does not connect until I entered my WAN IP, and I haven't forwarded any ports yet.

    Just tried that, it says Unable to make connection, check server address.

    Blue Iris Remote connectivity with VPN

    I would like to get remote access to my BI server via the iOS app without doing any port forwarding, just using VPN to connect to my home network remotely. When I'm on LTE, I connect to my home VPN and can access BI via the browser. However the iOS app refuses to connect. I think what is...

    H.264 and yes the hardware acceleration is set to Intel. I do see that the GPU has some activity.

    CPU Usage with GUI on

    I don’t have a 4K monitor yet, just a 2K for now. It is the licensed version. I noticed after a Windows update overnight, it has settled down to 35% CPU usage. Will monitor more.

    CPU Usage with GUI on

    Cameras are 4-6MP, one 8MP camera. I am running at 15 FPS as suggested. No remote login. I see that cpu usage goes up when I login via the iOS app, but that’s understandable. I’m just try to understand, is this expected steady state performance. And can there be such a big difference with GUI on...

    CPU Usage with GUI on

    I work from my home office in the basement, and one of the main use cases I had in mind for the BI Server was to connect a massive 4K TV to it and use it as a live monitor. But spending some time with BI today I've realized that even with my fancy new i7-8700, the CPU usage hits 60-70%, when the...
