    Change Verification Code

    I got a ezviz camera and used the batch Config tool to setup and everything actually works great, was even able to update the firmware without an ezviz account. However the verification code is the default admin password, is there any way to change this? I've tried changing the admin password...

    Dual NIC setup on your Blue Iris Machine

    I mostly use UI3 and do not have the BI app, but DMSS is nice to have as an alternative but its main use is 2 way audio for one of the cameras which works perfectly. When using BI incoming audio from the cam is fine but sending audio from BI (not app), works buts it also eats some words which I...

    Dual NIC setup on your Blue Iris Machine

    How would DMSS work on a dual nic setup? wouldn't the cams only be accessible on the dual nic BI computer and not the app on a phone on the main lan? Its one of the reasons I haven't moved away from my VLAN setup, that and 1 wifi cam.

    Dahua IMOU camera owners, please share your information here! Thank you.

    any way to add this to dmss? I have the amcrest version and was able to get it to work in BI with no issues but it sucks I can't use 2 way audio with dmss as it keeps asking to sign in, which I will not do. I created an amcrest account with the amcrest app during initial setup for updates and...

    Moving BI to Intel 4460 PC

    This is good to know that h265 will work with just CPU and yeah substream has been very good even on my current i3. I'm not to concerned on storage space, currently have a 2TB drive, but have a spare 1TB so was thinking of adding using it for archive to keep longer footage.

    Moving BI to Intel 4460 PC

    At the moment I am running BI on an i3 8100 with 16GB of RAM and for my usage it is perfectly fine, but I use the system for other things as well and was thinking of setting up a detected BI box. I am in the process of building a high end gaming PC for a friend and they have no use for the old...

    Add Imou cams to DMSS

    Anyone successful adding Imou cameras to DMSS? I have a Amcrest branded IMOU IOOC, the camera works great with Blue Iris but i'd like to use it completely offline. I am able to use the Dahua config tool to configure most setting since it doesn't have a web interface but some of the spotlight...

    IMOU Bullet 2 - How to access WiFi on BI

    use the IMOU preset in BI, you don't need the password in the stream link. I have the IOOC and it works great with BI. /cam/realmonitor?channel=1&subtype=0&unicast=true&proto=Onvif You can use the Dahua config tool to configure most things, sadly spotlight/siren settings requires the app.

    I finally ended up getting this cam and here are some findings. Pros: It works perfectly with BI and supports substeams ONVIF triggers work as I just copied all settings from my other Dahua cameras manually Works offline without internet access for recording with BI Records in H265, weirdly...

    Review-Dahua IPC-C26EP Active Deterrence 2mp WiFi cam

    Finally got the armcrest version of this camera, was fairly easy to add it and everything works, but I cannot get it added to DMSS by IP and if I try the SN it asks to login but i don't want another account. Works well in BI without internet connection, including 2 way audio but no motion...

    Dual NIC setup on your Blue Iris Machine

    My VLANs are setup with 1 way communication i.e main VLAN can access cam VLAN but not the other way around. I'm able to access all my cams webUI from my main VLAN, this is why I was thinking of isolating it further. This isn't a dedicated BI server so it can't be entirely on the cam VLAN with...

    Dual NIC setup on your Blue Iris Machine

    I've been slowly improving my network and skills. I run Blue Iris on my media server that is on my main LAN, all cameras are on a dead VLAN already but have been thinking about adding a second NIC to my media server for BI. Would it make sense to add a second NIC and bind it to the camera VLAN...

    Blue Iris Updates - Official Thread

    I turned on overlay and then turned it off for each camera just to be sure. I don't see the overlay in the BI Console or WebUI but it shows up when an alert it sent to my email. I'm able to enable/disable when exporting a video but cannot find the option to turn it off when I get an email from...

    Time overlay messed up

    It seems whenever I export a clip from BI from a camera using h265 it messes up the time overlay. The video otherwise is fine its just the overlay, recording or playback in BI are all fine its only occurs on export. I am not using BI overlay but rather the built in Camera overlay. If I check...

    Does ADC2W work with BI

    Yep i see that article as well but the reviews where confusing and some of them are from Armcrest themselves saying rtsp etc does not work. It looks to be the same camera as the Dahua c26 and Imou looc

    lens size and blindspot

    Maybe I'm wrong but it seems excessive already with the amount of cameras I have pointing to the street at different angles, but I did plan for this by running extra cables but was hoping to avoid it.

    lens size and blindspot

    I understand getting a 2.8mm lens will give a wider viewing angle but will it also have less of a blindspot than a 3.6mm lens? If I approach one of my cameras at about 2 feet I disappear from view, this isn't much of a problem if I approach head on. The problem I run into is if someone goes...

    REVIEW: Budget 4MP Turret Comparison - IPC-T2431T-AS vs Chinese HDW4433C-A

    Silly question, i mounted the bracket for this pointing straight towards the street in my soffits but didn't take into account for positioning as i thought i would be able to adjust afterwards. I need to rotate the camera about 45 degrees to the left so that it's not point straight at the...
