    Blue iris mobile app

    Thanks. This helps. And I think what @Mike A. said too. Right now I need a pc and rdp to manage anything blue iris. Being able to check or make a quick edit from my phone would be nice. I also think the alerts layout as you presented it is 10x better. Appreciate the feedback

    Blue iris mobile app

    Not really. There is a difference between stressing and asking if it is worth it. If the consensus is not really worth it, then why waste the money.

    Perhaps you are right and it is just my setup. I know I did not do a lot of customizing

    Blue iris mobile app

    Don’t need talk and exploring home assistant notifications to telegram. So those items are not needed. maybe it is Firefox I am using vs chrome. Ui3 web interface works in a ping but it clunky. If anything I guess maybe just thinking a cleaner way to review alerts. But even then not sure how...

    Blue iris mobile app

    Is it worth the 10$ in the App Store? The web access via mobile is pretty rough. Just wanted to ask before making the purchase. Wasn’t sure if there was a decent alternative or not or if this is one of those just buy the app moments.

    Security code emails

    More strangeness. Trying from computer the site says the message channel is busy. I’m curious if the erroneous messages are from some sort of internal error. Would be awesome to hear if any other ezviz users are seeing this.

    Security code emails

    Yeah super strange. Not sure how they have my account name, it is fairly unique Moreso, I tried logging in from a new phone and I was not receiving the verification emails. On my registered device I added phone verification and with that I got the verification to log in. I also changed the...

    I guess that's true, easy task is resetting the password and see if it continues

    Security code emails

    I keep getting emails with a security code, just trying to figure if I should be worried or what not. They come from [email protected] Xxx is a 3 digit number They have a 4 digit code and tell me it is good for 30 minutes. I have a ezviz doorbell camera and when I search on hicloudcam...

    BI setup and image detection

    this is probably the bit I am missing with what is a proper-ish setup. right now I have my hour videos and in between, I have clips 10-30 sec or whatever length. From your setup it seems you only have the hour feeds and then a point in time is flagged for review as opposed to 2 separate videos...

    BI setup and image detection

    I guess that is what prompted my question. I understand there is no right/wrong, good/bad and instead it is more about what works for you/me. In my case, I ventured down this path out of the gate. it is mostly OK, but yeah, not perfect as there are things missed, I think. My thought when I...

    BI setup and image detection

    I wonder if this is where the AI tool comes in. In the AI tool, there is a call to BI URL to trigger the camera. So, if I speak to my basic setup, BI has a recording hourly frontdoor_SD. Then every now and then there is a trigger, this snaps a jpeg, the AI tool analyzes it and says "person"...

    BI setup and image detection

    I think I like this line of thinking. As much of a flex as it is to tell your friends with nest or ring how you have 6 months of HD footage, does it actually mean anything if you are never reviewing it or using it. At that point, probably after a week, but call it 2-3, you probably do not need...

    BI setup and image detection

    I think it makes sense. one camera as a catch all just in case. for the rest, rely on the camera technology to switch to the better quality. In the event of a failure, you still have the one stream to fall back on which is a solid strategy.

    BI setup and image detection

    curious, what is your storage capacity and retention time? maybe my thoughts are skewed

    BI setup and image detection

    so I guess I should asks as maybe I am missing the strategy. Is the strategy to always record the main stream and the point of the sub stream is simply for screen displaying? My thought was that regardless of having a display or not, that I 24/7 record the substream and then trigger the main...

    BI setup and image detection

    I get it, but there is the flip side. What happens if detection fails and BI does not flip to higher quality on motion. Now you have low res footage of the event. Is this good enough, I am not sure. I know from my basic tests I was disappointed, but that could be simple user error. I...

    BI setup and image detection

    sorry, 4k 8MP is more like it.

    BI setup and image detection

    perhaps I need to try it again. It was unviewable previously and everything was grainy, etc, to the point where it made no sense to even record 24/7 in that format. I know too I had lots of issues with vbr to cbr as the vbr is notoriously bad on the 5442 it seems .

    BI setup and image detection

    Found a substream2 option, don't remember it originally. It allows me to set image at 1080p, 720,etc. I think this should get me past the problem with the substream2 quality being horrible. Need to test with this and also mess with the detection zones, both camera and bi. I recall looking at it...

    varifocal setup

    I am accessing it wifi to the Lan ip, not via the internet. I think it is just the ui/software being clunky as hell. Click, wait, save, review, repeat It's a shame, cause otherwise it is a good camera.

    varifocal setup

    Got it thanks. Am I doing it right if I am in the web ui of the camera? It is very clunky and the settings often delay as I click. Making sure the headaches it creates is just the way.

    varifocal setup

    Curious as this is not something I gave lots of thought to when trying to get dialed in. If I zoom to get the image to capture my desired area, what do i do with focus? Currently it is right in the middle, however, it is my front door, so would it be better to instead set focus to near as that...

    BI setup and image detection

    what about quality? I know we call these 4k and even 8k cameras but is that resolution even required when it hits the disk? Does it make sense to record at 1080p? As you note, I am not making an epic of package deliveries. when you mention using BI or camera ONVIF for detection, is this to...

    BI setup and image detection

    When I first started to set things up, I jumped right to the 2 camera AI trigger setup in BI. That is, I set up the AI tool with deepstack image detection, and from there, triggered the second camera with higher resolution recording. However, I have long thought about this setup and thought...

    Why I Like Redundant Views/Multiple Cam Views

    Excellent stuff, thank you. Any reason to be in the window like this and not in the eve with the wires in the attic? Or is that not accessible? Just looking to learn and get ideas from design decisions.

    Why I Like Redundant Views/Multiple Cam Views

    I need to see if I have any similar option, thats not bad if the blinds can still close properly. I have similar wooden blinds.
