    Is this worth the price?

    The worst thing about my sons experience is that while his cam was in warranty they released a revised version which supposedly dealt with the heat issue but they flat refused to replace his faulty cam with it. As I said they then kept delaying with really crap excuses and even though he had...

    Is this worth the price?

    I’ve personally never tried the no names cheaper brands but companies like Viofo and Vantrue are well respected. Personally I avoid Blackvue, my son paid over £650 for his Blackvue 4k front and rear and has had nothing but problems with it, even here in the good old UK it keeps overheating...

    Blue Iris Closing after 2/3 seconds

    If you no longer have valid support then you can’t update to the latest version. Check the date of when your support ended, then you need to locate a version of BI that was released in or before that date and install that. There used to be a big BI release thread on this site, hopefully you...

    Did you have BI auto updates enabled? That’s another thing to explore?

    [resolved] blueiris service crashing post upgrade to windows 11

    I’ve taken it one step further, since my PC is dedicated to BI I don’t really care what OS it runs so I’m staying with Windows 10 as long as I can until it creaks itself to death [emoji3]

    Camera reliability?

    It might be useful info for forum users here and maybe even for the cam makers? Also what or how does having no warranty directly affect being able to fix it? I’ve fixed a whole host of things in my house none of which had any warranty! I’ve fixed my Buffalo NAS (bad cap), my Dell managed...

    Camera reliability?

    I know people are saying troll etc but I’ve given him the benefit of the doubt but am now beginning to wonder. If the OP knew why the cams have failed then wouldn’t it have been better to post stating my cam x has failed for reason y, has this happened to anybody else. If I have a problem with...

    IP address 192.168.1.114 not accepting password.

    If the cam has reset have you tried the default admin password?

    Blue iris and Windows 10 vs Windows 11

    I watched a video last month where it was stated that MS have now started blocking the bypasses including the bypasses that they themselves previously allowed. I really can’t understand why they are doing this but the push for the reasons of added security is their reasoning. It should be...

    Zerotier Blue Iris

    Yes you need to make sure that the BI web service will bond to multiple ip/adapters so that the web service is available on both the local ip but also the zerotier virtual adapter.

    Zerotier Blue Iris

    There’s an option in BI to bind to only a single ip/adapter, check to see how that is set?

    Zerotier Blue Iris

    If it’s like Tailscale have you tried using the dns address that gets configured? I have Tailscale and using the dns address automatically enables the vpn and allows me to connect.

    Camera reliability?

    I’m not saying any such thing, the clue is in the word maybe? As an engineer are you not in the least bit curious as to what might be wrong with the cam(s)? Open them up and see if there’s anything obvious that you can see?

    Camera reliability?

    Maybe the firmware is corrupt, have you tried updating the firmware with the cam sat on your bench with a known good Ethernet cable?

    Camera reliability?

    Don’t think I can be bothered to read the entire thread but what config did you or do you use in your cams and the cams that failed?

    Camera reliability?

    The Engineer field must be special? I work in IT and never ever mention it as frankly I find it embarrassing [emoji3] and the instant I mention it people want their old clapped out PCs fixed [emoji3]

    blue iris motion sometimes not detecting

    Maybe increasing the contrast/brightness and/or gain might help as the screenshots just look way too dark to me?

    Camera reliability?

    And breath ..... :) I got my Dahua 5231-ze cams back in 2019, so 4 years old now. Plan was to replace them as they died with newer models but the damn things just keep working. With them now being 4 years old and counting, if they started dying would I contact Andy, yep I would but to ask for...

    I’ve also got 6 5231-zero cams on duty but although I had the itch and replaced the pair up front I’ve resisted and will replace them as they go to cctv cam heaven [emoji3]

    New build CAT6 camera cabling through a wall

    You can get plasterboard which has insulation attached and can also be foil backed but no idea if that is what the OP is going to use.
