    Can Blue Iris ingest VNC video streams?

    I just did a quick google and it looks like there are a few solutions to automatically start OBS and begin broadcast on startup, but I'm not too sure or familiar with that.

    Can Blue Iris ingest VNC video streams?

    I would probably run OBS on the target PC w/ the OBS RTSP Server plugin - then you can configure BI to read from the RTSP feed

    Cameras Used for Detection/Early Warning?

    I have a few HA automations w/ my cameras - if my doorbell detects a human after midnight but before sunrise it turns on all floodlights around my entire house & if my doorbell is rung (in the same timeframe) the same thing happens just in case the cam doesn't identify a human before they ring...

    Stunnel vs NGROK vs ZeroTier?

    ZeroTier has been super reliable for a second system that I run. Incredibly easy to setup, add/remove users, etc. It requires very little tech know-how when compared to other alternatives such as VPNs etc.

    Brainstorming: Economical way to cover all the 4 sides of a parked car

    Hi there - I like your 2 corner idea, the main issue is that it only covers 1 of foot traffic for each side of the car. So if the person is walking the opposite direction you will not get an identifying face shot. I think if you're trying to identify somebody you would need no less than 4...

    If a (Dahua) cam SD card or NVR gets stolen, how secure is the footage?

    Ahh rats, you've foiled my plans to swing by and steal all of your SD cards next time I'm in Europe ! :) To each their own

    What did you do to adapt your plans?

    If a (Dahua) cam SD card or NVR gets stolen, how secure is the footage?

    If the security of the footage is most valuable to you then you should not use SD cards in your cameras where they can be 'easily' taken or you need to deploy security measures to protect your cameras & SD cards. But again, if the footage was that sensitive (and if I knew that the footage itself...

    Need help replacing heart of existing system

    Very nice! Glad it worked out pretty easily - when I started I also put 1 camera on BI and tried to figure it out and slowly added my cams. I think that is the way to go, many people try to start with 8-10 cameras and get overwhelmed because they don't know how the software works

    How to change BI profile using HomeAssistant?

    I found a curl command that you can issue from HA but it was from a 4 year old reddit thread - not sure if it still works: Yup, you can. Here's an example shell command: bi_away: curl http://192.168.53.55:81/admin?profile=4 Add your Home Assistant IP address as a trusted device in BlueIris

    Push: failed 80090328 to iPhone, check security exemptions and service Login

    I don't think DeepStack has become 'unsupported' by BI, they have shifted toward integrating CodeProject.AI but plenty of people still use DeepStack on the latest stable version of BI You sound very entitled demanding instant support for your $29-$99 annual fee which renews your license thus...

    Using Spotter Cameras to direct a PTZ where to look in an NVR or Blue Iris and setting a spotter cam as a priority in Blue Iris

    Got it - yes same for me, but my Idle Motion feature doesn't behave as expected, same with the Time Task feature. I am not a huge fan of the 'wait x seconds' then force return to home preset currently since if BI sends a 'Preset 1' command, the camera will not recognize a 'Preset 2' command if...

    Using Spotter Cameras to direct a PTZ where to look in an NVR or Blue Iris and setting a spotter cam as a priority in Blue Iris

    I stumbled across the OSD menu through Dahua's website: https://dahuawiki.com/How_To_Setup_PTZ_Idle_Motion Essentially in the 'live view' you hit 'Menu' on the right side - i was shocked to see that my menu did not match the website GUI

    Using Spotter Cameras to direct a PTZ where to look in an NVR or Blue Iris and setting a spotter cam as a priority in Blue Iris

    Nope it is a refurb SD49425XB-HNR (IP) that I bought from Andy - wondering if something is up with the firmware? Does anybody else have this cam with this firmware? Device Type: SD49425XB-HNR System Version: V2.800.1341000.0.R.P9.2522.UN.NR Build Date: 2020-03-12 PTZ Version...

    Using Spotter Cameras to direct a PTZ where to look in an NVR or Blue Iris and setting a spotter cam as a priority in Blue Iris

    Ahh - for some reason the Time Task doesn't work either - interestingly when I go into the camera's menu through the live stream menu Idle & Time Task don't exist - must be a firmware issue where the GUI is giving the option but the feature actually doesn't exist in the firmware?

    Camera reset activating Dahua motion detection

    I hate to bump a thread that is 2 years old.. but this issue seems to persist for me - does anybody know if this was fixed? I will deploy the above fix in the meantime, perhaps this bug resurfaced?

    Using Spotter Cameras to direct a PTZ where to look in an NVR or Blue Iris and setting a spotter cam as a priority in Blue Iris

    I was originally using a 60 second wait w/ Preset call in the alert dialogue which seems to work fine (I enabled the wait to be cancelled if the cam was retriggered) but noticed that in this tread a few folks were talking about having the cam return to 'home' automatically after specific...

    Using Spotter Cameras to direct a PTZ where to look in an NVR or Blue Iris and setting a spotter cam as a priority in Blue Iris

    Yep - no motion, granted I just set this up over the past few days and still trying to figure out a handful of aspects on this but this feature in particular is not working. I am thinking if preset 2 is called from BI and the camera does not move on it's own it will not trigger the 'idle'...

    Using Spotter Cameras to direct a PTZ where to look in an NVR or Blue Iris and setting a spotter cam as a priority in Blue Iris

    Is this working reliably for you? I have my SD49425XB-HNR set to return to Preset1 after 1 minute of idle motion and it doesn't seem to work. What is everybody else doing to reliably return their camera after it has completed tracking OR has failed to detect anything after a spotter has...

    Need Interior garage cam recommendation for Frigate/Home Assistant

    Okay - I suggested the tools he needs to calculate the FOV & also suggested that he could use a vari-focal cam which addresses the uncertainties in the FOV. A PTZ would be overkill in this situation as it seems like he is only looking for a spotter/observer cam. Regardless, I don't think it is...
