Got mine to work, but a few bugs in it yet as far as working 100% reliable. For one thing you can't use the trigger icon to test it (which it does trigger the cam, but no popup) actual motion trigger will work. For me, it works most of the time, but will get in a state where they quit working until you reboot windows, then they all show up in the notification center. I am running W10 64 1903. I have sent support some details about this.

For the life of me I cannot get toast to work, looked at help files, blueiris and windows settings, all looks good as per instructions. I must be missing something. Any assist would be helpful on how people got theirs to work.

What version of windows are you running ? What happens when you test it in the "ON trigger" window....should say test complete and alert window will slide out.

did you get toast to work?

I get an error about a DLL file missing [api-ms-win-core-winrt-l1-1-0.dll]. I have downloaded it and put it in the BI directory & windows/system directory but this has not helped.

Yes I did get it to work, but I had to pretty much enable a bunch of other Windows alert notifications and it was very annoying. It also was never real reliable on its timing. So as of now I no longer use this. I remember there was a issue with running BI as a service and getting them to work correctly as well.
