    I need a little help figuring out what went wrong with todays update

    I would also suggest that once you get BI running to copy the license key to a text file and store it in a safe place (USB Drive) perhaps along with a copy of the current or recent full install file!

    I need a little help figuring out what went wrong with todays update

    If you are trying to start BI by clicking a desktop icon, I would suggest that you use the start menu <Start>, <Blue Iris>, <Blue Iris Admin> and see if it starts up properly!

    I need a little help figuring out what went wrong with todays update

    I just did the upgrade to 6.1.1.4 on my three BI systems and it had no issues, are you using NGROK on your system, I do not use NGROK!

    It is right here on this forum if you take a look AI

    Secure sharing of 2-3 cameras instead of complete access to server with neighbor.

    You could just use the UI3 web interface, perhaps give them access to your wifi???

    Version 6

    You could just buy it direct from Perspective Software and and then you could feel good that you have contributed to the ongoing BlueIris development!

    Blue Iris and Windows 11 24H2?

    Well that is what happens if you decide to Beat Test for MS by loading the previews! If BI ran on Linux I would use it on my BI systems, but it currently does not; although I am starting to use Linux Mint on a number of devices that are just used for email and web browsing!

    Higher CPU after swapping out Foscam FI9831W with Amcrest IP4M-1041W - what could I try?

    In your camera settings the iframe number is not correct, that would possibly cause a delay switching from sub to main, you should make sure that the "Frame Rate" matches the "Iframe" number for both the main stream and the sub stream (BI is much happier if they match)

    BI version 5.9.9.73 to 6 with CPAI

    I have been using 6.x from the start with AI and it works fine for me, just using detection for people and cars, I do not use faces or ALPR as I have no use for it, for me it has been pretty much trouble free. What are you using CodeProject to detect, there are some things that it may do better...

    BI Setup EmpireTech IPC-T58IR-ZE-S3 / Dahua 5842T-ZE-S3

    I always have used the CopnfigTool, I did not know it was possible to connect to the camera the first time without it, I have found it very handy when I have several new cameras installed and want to config them all in one go, for me it has been a good time saver. I never enable the automatic...

    Overview status question

    The Faces and ALPR always show, I think that the logic to only show what is being used was not put into the program, if it is really bugging you then send a message to support and ask if it can be removed if not being used!

    BI Setup EmpireTech IPC-T58IR-ZE-S3 / Dahua 5842T-ZE-S3

    If the camera is brand new does he not have to initialize/Configure it using the ConfigTool utility from the Empire Tech web site, with the ConfigTool he can set the password and change the IP without having to be on the camera subnet? Download Softwares

    Public port forwarding on firewall?

    I have never been hacked on my bi system, but I stopped using port forwarding quite a few years ago, because I got tired of the non stop port scanning that was happening, they can't detect an open port if there is not one! I use OpenVPN to allow connections to UI3 and to do remote desktop...

    DB DBCompact: could not obtain exclusive DB access 0/45600 0/45600 0/0/0

    What version please, not sure if it relevant or not? Also have you excluded your BI folders from scanning by you Antivirus software Can you do the rebuild manually from within BI, is the rebuild scheduled from within BI?

    blue iris video stream was lost due to rapid failures

    Well, I am out if ideas, if it is working now I would just move on and chock it up to the unexplained!

    blue iris video stream was lost due to rapid failures

    I wonder if an update to your browser caused the problem?

    New system suggestions

    From what I have read, most Reolink cameras do not have a good reputation on this forum! I would check out the 24/7 claim as it may just be relying on an internal battery to send out alerts 24/7 as opposed to actual 24/7 video, it takes a lot of power to keep a regular camera going, all you have...

    New system suggestions

    From my understanding, solar powered cameras do not provide a continuous video stream, which BI expects from the cameras. I have never used a solar powered device so this just what I have been reading, you may want to confirm this?

    Need a bi monitoring setup

    I have one system with 8 cameras running on a ASRock X600 ITX with an AMD Ryzen 7 8700G, I used this case as it had room for an internal 10Gb hard drive, it is doing continuous recording 24/7 on three of the cameras and is using the internal AI on 4 of the cameras. The CPU usage is 3-6% and the...

    Trouble deleting camera

    I have not encountered this issue, but I can not remember when I have had to delete a camera, usually adding them! the few times I have deleted cameras at least a year or two ago I did not have any of the issues that you have described! What antivirus program are you running, the camera configs...

    Do you have some other pointing device connected to your computer perhaps a device for aircraft control simulation?

    After running fine for an hour or so, BI loses connections to cameras one by one

    Can you get the camera connections back by running the "Find/Inspect" again for the camera. When the camera connection is lost can you still get to the camera login page using the IP of the camera in your browser? By any chance do you have the "Skip initial MACV.HTTP,DNS reachability test"...

    BI on Windows server vs. Win 11

    I guess that would depend on what you are trying to do, all of my three win 11 pro BI systems run 24/7 with the desktop not logged in, some people leave the desktop open to use the BI program to view the cameras

    BI on Windows server vs. Win 11

    Just to clarify, if BI is set to run as a service it will still be running even if you logout of the desktop on Win 11, if you truly don't want BI to run when you are not logged into the desktop then do not set it to run as a service, it will then only run while the application is open on the...

    How is BI 6 and AI working for you now?

    I suspect that any of the solar powered cameras will not work, to the best of my knowledge the cameras must be capable of sending video continuosly which I don't think is possible with the typical solar powered cameras that are avialable

    Recent BI6 upgrade has simply quit and disappeared?

    If you have a current support agrement, just down load the full install from the BI web site and reinstall, all the setting etc should still be there!
