I stil looking how to get some cheap cameras to works with blue iris, Ive tow ideas.

1) Is it possible send video feed to Blue iris by FPT, because lorex lcn have this option, "send to ftp"
2) If Ive the file writed in the HD, may Bue iris use it ?

Thanks..

No and no.
What cameras do you have?
 
I would like to use all the crap I've, or some :) I've
2 Lorex MCNC200
4 FUNLUX 720


they works fine, are cheap but have a decent image quality and can record video in they proprietary software.

The lorex cameras should be able to stream direct to blue iris.
What model funlux?
 
again, no. FTP is NOT how to get video into BI.

you should be able to get BI to pull a stream directly from both those cams.

what settings are you using? show us your camera / video / network ip / configure tabs at least.
 
It is possible that the camera does not provide an rtsp or onvif stream. Call lorex.
This may be the case for the funlux as well.
 
i guess you tried the find/inspect feature as well?

I've had some success with various cams by simply taking a packet capture (with wireshark)
while viewing the full-rez 'live view' in the cam's web UI to scrape the URL to use in BI...
but yeah, you may be SOL if the cam's don't provide *something* BI can glom onto,
which is typical of many 'cloud-only' sort of solutions.
 
How much did you spend for those 4 FUNLUX 720's?
 
UAUU My videos are saved at zmodo web site, i didn't know it, is a bit creepy...

I'm done, i will stick with better cameras. !

OK, just because the stream is being pushed to zmodo web site doesn't mean it isn't ALSO accessible via direct rtsp.
from the zmodo web site (http://kb.zmodo.com/index.php?solution_id=1308):

The RTSP address of the main stream (720p) is: rtsp://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:10554/tcp/av0_0
(assuming Lorex didn't change the port from zmodo defaults upon re-branding)

if you get that working and decide to keep it, you could block the external export at your router...
