    Linux Users - What is your favorite distribution and why?

    That is simply untrue. :rofl: Mac OS has the benefit of being exceptionally well paired to and optimized for the hardware it ships on. Windows has the benefit of having drastically better support from most software vendors, compared to other desktop OS. Not to mention what must be trillions...

    Cables for less Experiance?

    Heh if I was doing new permanent wiring I think I would not much care which color each cable is. Just label the sockets on the patch panel(s).

    Cables for less Experiance?

    That is a great price for a 1000 foot spool of solid copper cable even if it was cat5e! (from a brand you can trust, anyway)

    how can i view blue iris remotely?

    If you set up the wireguard tunnel to only route the remote LAN subnet instead of the whole internet, then you don't even have to choose which apps can use it.

    true cloud hosting for ip cameras

    If you won't be using the NVR, and you trust the Blue Iris machine to work, then you don't even need a new router because tailscale can run fine on the Blue Iris machine.

    true cloud hosting for ip cameras

    In that case I would advise installing a router there with Tailscale support (something running pfSense or OpnSense would do it). Configure that router as an "exit node" in your Tailscale network. You should change the LAN IP address range to be unique, something you aren't using anywhere...

    Extending a Blue Iris Network - Assistance on How to Keep Secure?

    Yes. There is no limit to the number of networks you can connect a computer to, and Blue Iris will be able to access resources on all of them and serve UI3 on all of them. Do not have the "Bind exclusively" box checked in BI's web server settings as that limits UI3/webserver access to only one...

    how can i view blue iris remotely?

    +1 for Tailscale. Tailscale performs better in many people's experience, and has a substantially better free service plan compared to ZeroTier, especially lately as ZeroTier has been reducing what is available to new free sign-ups in recent times.

    true cloud hosting for ip cameras

    I am not sure what you are asking for. You said cloud hosting in the title. You said you want to view IP cameras. But what cameras? What else do you want to do besides live view? Do you want to record? Receive alert notifications? Filter those alert notifications with AI? Share access...

    Cables for less Experiance?

    Cat5e is pretty much a commodity item and plenty of brands sell perfectly adequate cable. The main thing to watch out for is the wire material. You want "Pure Copper" also known as "Bare Copper" wire. Avoid cables built with "Copper Clad Aluminum" (CCA) wire. There are also options of...

    Extending a Blue Iris Network - Assistance on How to Keep Secure?

    If you have things you don't want to be accessible from the "REMOTE" network, you simply don't connect them to that network. I'm not sure I 100% understand what you're doing. In the diagram you have a 24 port PoE switch and a camera and a mysterious green rectangle and yellow rectangle and...

    Haha the reddit comments assume that post was an attempt to manipulate Ubiquiti's stock price.

    A "good" multi-lens for BI?

    The drop-down choices left of the path input just fill the path box with predetermined values Blue Iris discovered by using ONVIF. The value in the path box is what matters, not the drop-down. Anyway, it does seem like they did not make the other two video channels available via RTSP, since...

    A "good" multi-lens for BI?

    My intent was not for /tcp/av2_0 to be in the sub stream path box. For testing purposes leave the sub stream path blank and only enter things into the main stream path box, otherwise you risk misunderstanding what you're getting because Blue Iris will only show you one stream at a time and you...

    A "good" multi-lens for BI?

    Try /tcp/av1_0 and /tcp/av2_0. It makes no sense that they would require proprietary software for some video streams when they are all fundamentally the same.
