Asshole, the country or orgin is irrelevant. Croatia/russia, same shit. The point is you are a LYING SPAMMER. You came here pretending to be an end user. You have been a member since 2019, have you not seen what I do to scammers like you?

VLC also can be set to stream and then captured. It took a lot of experimentation - and it was simpler to use DesktopCamera app (I didn't buy, just the trial) but it worked great. VLC will let you control the framerate, I couldn't do that with the DesktopCamera software. But the Onvif device manager immediately recognized this. Be careful of having and Remote Desktop Connection as it redirects the screen and causes havoc..
Hi,
I dont believe screen capture works if Blue Iris is running as a service. ie. you have to login to pc and run Blue Iris after each restart on the client PC - is this correct or is there a way to capture screen and auto run Blue Iris as service on client machine?
From the manual:
"As the service process generally cannot interact with the desktop UI, it may not be possible
to use this option (apart from Blackness) when running as a service."
A possible solution could be to add BlueIrisAdmin.exe shortcut to each users start up folder and have it start to system tray with a password to open.
This is the path to user startup folder: C:\Users\ursername\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup
Would this work?
What happens if more than one user is logged in at once, would multiple instatances of BlueIrisAdmin.exe run for each logged in user?

I know this thread is quite old, but I thought it might still help anyone looking for an alternative.
I've recently released Screen2ipcam, a Windows application that turns any Windows desktop into a standard ONVIF Profile S / RTSP (H.264) IP camera.
Unlike DeskCamera, it integrates directly with ONVIF-compatible NVRs and VMS platforms, so your desktop appears just like a regular IP camera.
Key features:
Typical use cases include:
Microsoft Store:
Screen2ipcam - Free download and install on Windows | Microsoft Store

I'd genuinely appreciate any feedback or compatibility reports from Blue Iris users. I'm actively developing the software and continuously improving compatibility with different NVR/VMS platforms.
