    I need a little help figuring out what went wrong with todays update

    I would also suggest that once you get BI running to copy the license key to a text file and store it in a safe place (USB Drive) perhaps along with a copy of the current or recent full install file!

    If you are trying to start BI by clicking a desktop icon, I would suggest that you use the start menu <Start>, <Blue Iris>, <Blue Iris Admin> and see if it starts up properly!

    I need a little help figuring out what went wrong with todays update

    I just did the upgrade to 6.1.1.4 on my three BI systems and it had no issues, are you using NGROK on your system, I do not use NGROK!

    Version 6

    It is right here on this forum if you take a look AI

    Secure sharing of 2-3 cameras instead of complete access to server with neighbor.

    You could just use the UI3 web interface, perhaps give them access to your wifi???

    Version 6

    You could just buy it direct from Perspective Software and and then you could feel good that you have contributed to the ongoing BlueIris development!

    Blue Iris and Windows 11 24H2?

    Well that is what happens if you decide to Beat Test for MS by loading the previews! If BI ran on Linux I would use it on my BI systems, but it currently does not; although I am starting to use Linux Mint on a number of devices that are just used for email and web browsing!

    Higher CPU after swapping out Foscam FI9831W with Amcrest IP4M-1041W - what could I try?

    In your camera settings the iframe number is not correct, that would possibly cause a delay switching from sub to main, you should make sure that the "Frame Rate" matches the "Iframe" number for both the main stream and the sub stream (BI is much happier if they match)

    BI version 5.9.9.73 to 6 with CPAI

    I have been using 6.x from the start with AI and it works fine for me, just using detection for people and cars, I do not use faces or ALPR as I have no use for it, for me it has been pretty much trouble free. What are you using CodeProject to detect, there are some things that it may do better...

    BI Setup EmpireTech IPC-T58IR-ZE-S3 / Dahua 5842T-ZE-S3

    I always have used the CopnfigTool, I did not know it was possible to connect to the camera the first time without it, I have found it very handy when I have several new cameras installed and want to config them all in one go, for me it has been a good time saver. I never enable the automatic...

    Overview status question

    The Faces and ALPR always show, I think that the logic to only show what is being used was not put into the program, if it is really bugging you then send a message to support and ask if it can be removed if not being used!

    BI Setup EmpireTech IPC-T58IR-ZE-S3 / Dahua 5842T-ZE-S3

    If the camera is brand new does he not have to initialize/Configure it using the ConfigTool utility from the Empire Tech web site, with the ConfigTool he can set the password and change the IP without having to be on the camera subnet? Download Softwares

    Public port forwarding on firewall?

    I have never been hacked on my bi system, but I stopped using port forwarding quite a few years ago, because I got tired of the non stop port scanning that was happening, they can't detect an open port if there is not one! I use OpenVPN to allow connections to UI3 and to do remote desktop...
