    Is it possible to have two separate clips and alerts from one trigger?

    You can create a group and get one cam to trigger others in the group? Is that what you mean. On my driveway I have 2 cams and if one triggers I other also raises and alert.

    Problem with BI phone app on Iphone

    The QR code simply opens a browser session with your local IP address doesn't it? Well that's what it did for me when I last tried using it.

    HP EliteDesk G4 SFF Randomly Shutting Down (Crashing)

    I run my BI on an HP 400 with an i5-6500 CPU. For BI, things that helped was to disable hardware acceleration within BI for all my cams. Since W11 the vid card drivers haven't really played ball with BI and although I've tried various versions disabling acceleration seems to be the only fix...

    Good news on the memory front?

    It's like the old HDD price increases if anybody recalls that, prices go up as a result of a shortage and then stay artificially up

    My BI desktop died looking for a little help

    Have you tried activating on the new PC? Should work unless it's been activated multiple times. If it fails then lodge a support ticket with support from within BI and they should resolve the issue.

    Amazon is phasing out Firestick's Android-based Fire OS in favor of locked-down, Linux-based Vega OS

    Would you risk it with the reports of supposed malware baked into some of the devices? I’ve got 3 firestick 4k max sticks and right now they do what we want, think it’s the free tv crowd where their apps are blocked that are all up in arms.

    Amazon is phasing out Firestick's Android-based Fire OS in favor of locked-down, Linux-based Vega OS

    A Vega OS stick came out a few months ago so be warned, in the UK its called a Select stick and the only mention of Vega OS is in the reviews left by owners who discovered too late

    3 hours at this..At my wits end.. Xfinity and port forwarding

    Have you allowed port 82 within the Windows Firewall ? BI should do that as part of the Wizard but worth checking Also is the internet service new or has it always been there? Reason I ask is that my provider uses CGNAT which means that I can't port forward ipv4 but can setup access to ipv6...

    Installing Reolink NVR in a loft in the UK advise please.

    Luckily here in the UK being too hot is never a real issue, having said that, last 2 years we have had a few weeks of really hot weather, my loft 2 weeks ago must have been in the high forties (centigrade)

    BI on Windows server vs. Win 11

    I think your statement "log out while not using/needing the BI monitoring." might be causing some confusion hence @Bruce_H reply to state that running BI as a Service does not stop monitoring when you logout

    Installing Reolink NVR in a loft in the UK advise please.

    I've got my BlueIris PC in the loft as well as the POE switch, been up there for some 3 years now. No problems to date, not saying that there won't be. The only issue I had was with the POE switch, in summer the fans were way too loud so I could hear the feint hum in the quiet of the night so I...

    What's Up With Boeing?

    Yes agree but you do buy the plane as a package don’t you ? So Boeing must be talks with the engine makers with regards to maintenance of the engines. Given it’s Ryan Air I’d not be too surprised if they do the bare mins required to keep their planes air worthy?

    Networking Gurus - getting around a lack of a VPN

    Simplest way to think of it is their servers act as a middle man effectively, so you talk to their servers and it redirects those requests to the client running on your PC which is also connected to their server. As the comms are peer to peer there's no need for any form of port forwarding.

    Networking Gurus - getting around a lack of a VPN

    VPNs aren't banned in the UK, yet. When age verification was introduced for adults sites being accessed from the UK, VPNs were used to get around this. There are thoughts around this age verification process and if it should be implemented on VPNs which would be quite difficult to enforce as...
