    Looking for BI5 Installer v5.9.9.98 or v5.9.7.3

    Thank you Bruce_H. I'll make sure that I don't uninstall BI 5. I appreciate the warning about not uninstalling BI 5 before installing BI 6.

    Looking for BI5 Installer v5.9.9.98 or v5.9.7.3

    I don't have the full installer for Blue Iris 5 preferably v5.9.9.98 x64 or v5.9.9.73 x64. Does anyone know where I can download a safe copy? Since BI6 was released there isn't a link on the Blue Iris by Perspective Software LLC | Video Security and Webcam Software website to download BI5...

    BI 5 and Auto Tracking

    You need to change it on all cameras in Blue Iris camera settings -> Trigger tab and click on configure button.

    BI 5 and Auto Tracking

    That's because you are recording Continuous, so the footage is recorded to a BVR file. The problem is Blue Iris is missing motion triggers, so it is not creating Alert images to where motion was triggered in your recorded footage. This may be the result of you enabling "Object detection"...

    Amazon Echo Dot Hybrid support will no longer work in Blue Iris

    I sent the following e-mail message to Blue Iris support concerning Alexa no longer being able to control Blue Iris and cameras.

    "Error Importing Registry Key 5"

    bp2008, is there any chance that the import problem may be a permission issue on the "a1" registry key in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Perspective Software\Blue Iris\?

    Trying to open BI recordings from harddrive, says i need to run as admin

Normally, in order to play a video clip you have to wait for all recording to stop and the file to be closed. If you record 24/7 continuously (not triggered), then .BVR offers...

    Trying to open BI recordings from harddrive, says i need to run as admin

    You won't see an option for "Run as administrator" when you right click on a video file. You will see "Play" or "Open in Blue Iris". I suspect you are recording with BVR in Blue Iris as the file container format. The .BVR format is exclusive to Blue Iris. When you double click on a recording...

    BI-based system installed with tips from this site

    IAmATeaf, since tai4de2 cameras are configured for 15fps, then 1 I-frame per second is the same as saying an I-frame interval every 15 frames. So he matched the camera's frame rate to the i-frame interval, with the exception of his wifi camera where the I-frame is every 5 seconds. That means his...
