    Keeping the Z12 at B&W all the time will result in no need for the sunrise-sunset utility, though?

    I bought this on AMZN but cannot comment on the audio quality. It picks up conversations and bird chirps, though. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00M5P7HCW/

    OpenALPR Tool - Save and Query CSV Exports

    For the CSV downloads, it is easy to miss. Log into your ALPR Dashboard. Look under the 'Plates this week' column, and click on the 'View details' link. Then on the next page, the download link will appear on the bottom-left.

    Poor IR contrast in new Tennessee license plates

    Eagerly awaiting test results, especially for general LPR captures at ~190 feet. My Z12's red eyeballs stand out a bit at night, and having a low intensity white light would be great.

    Camera Group View Options

    Is there a way to have different camera groups' view to have unique view settings? I would like one group to have the "Solo Selected Camera" always checked, and another group to always have it unchecked. As it is, if I change that option it affects all groups. Not a big deal, but it would be...

    DeepStack LPR Custom Model

    Mike, can you provide a quick summary of how DeepStack improves plate recognition, as opposed to only using Plate Recognizer or ALPR? Does the DeepStack mark the plates in the BI log as Plate Recognizer does?

    Is it possible to send snapshot via email on a schedule?

    Thanks, BKG! If the need is to trigger an event once a month then if BI closes and reopens or gets an update then the setting would start a countdown from 0 minutes, I am wondering?

    BI, VPN and Unifi USG

    Hi Nick, I noticed that my Android (via T-Mobile) had started to warn me a while ago that the VPN connection I use from UniFi is not secure. It is an annoying message, but in my case I can still connect okay.

    FYI: for those with home sprinklers, Costco has Rachio3 12 zone on sale for $149

    I bought the 8 zone Rachio last year, and it works quite well, even though I am using only 5 zones. I even have it integrated into HomeSeer, but for what purpose? Because it's there!

    Alexa Integration - Blue Iris 4

    I have Voice Monkey/Alexa working well within HomeSeer automation. Wanting to leverage BI to speak to Alexa, I tried using a camera trigger's On Alert with a Web Request, and pasted in the Voice Monkey's API address, and it works, too.

    OpenALPR Tool - Save and Query CSV Exports

    MQTT remote control of UI3 instances

    Granted I am pretty weak on this MQTT stuff, but I'm trying to understand how a home automation event would make a specific instance of UI3 behave? Does the command affect any and all views of UI3 which might be in service at the same time?

    Setting up NetTime Time Sync Tool on Windows 10

    I've been having problems with my Dahua cameras keeping proper time, even with the NTP server configured. California still uses DST. I discovered that I need to mark my time zone as UTC - 8:00 (even when the current time zone is UTC - 07:00) and then check mark the DST option, setting also the...

    Tell us about your home automation!

    Hi Larebear. Can yolink integrate with BlueIris, such as when a sensor has an event then BlueIris receives a trigger command to a camera, whose alert then sends out an email with a snapshot? Also same idea - can an event send out a PushOver notification?
