Last I checked, Blue Iris only support windows. I have it running on a dedicated laptop which has Windows 11 on it at the moment . The only thing the laptop is used for is for blue iris. Is there a dumbed down windows server or something else I can use OS wise that isn't so background processor...

I have the Blue Iris app setup on my iPhone and my wife's iPhone, but we have 2 different locations with 2 different locations. Is there anyway to setup the notifications so that one of the servers is one color and the other a differnt color? Or someway to distinguish them and make them unique...

Hi all - So I already have a nice Blue Iris setup at my house, with a rack and dedicated server, synology, and 7 Cameras for my main house. We now want to setup surveillance for my mother in laws house. Probably 3 - 4 cameras max. I'd like to setup such that all footage stores on the same...

Does anyone know if Blue Iris can be installed on Windows Server Nano, or some other super lightweight version? I've got rack mounted gear, and a hyper-visor server running where at the moment, I have Blue Iris running as a hyper vm with Windows Server 2019 edition. I'd rather skip the GUI as...

Today I decided to migrate my Blue Iris, which has been running off of an old Dell Precision Laptop since 2019, to a proper rack mount Poweredge. It has been on version 5. I exported the settings, and unregistered the server and installed BI on the new server. Then it asked for the license code...

Hi everyone - It's been some time since I worked on a CISCO Switch / router (like 2000'ish). I have it working just fine as a standalone on the same network at the moment, but I'm trying to configure it with a separate VLAN / DHCP for my IP Cameras. In otherwords, it currently has an uplink...

I just ordered 5 5231's from @EMPIRETECANDY which I received yesterday (THANK YOU!). I'm trying to get them setup 1-by-1 here first with the latest firmware, and then modified to my specific IP addresses I want. However... I don't know what I'm doing wrong as I can't get them initialized. I get...

Well - I've landed on a few things solid over the past few days. I'm going with the 5321 Cams around our home, with blue iris. I currently have a Ring Doorbell 2, which is pretty sufficient but within the return period. I'm trying to figure out what options I have for Blue Iris compatibility...

Hi everyone - I've been reading up a bit on "Blue Iris" as a software, and I think it's what i'm looking for, but not 100% sure. I'm trying to design an outside security system for our home and have been looking at several "systems" but being an IT guy, and working for an IT Security company...
