Motion alerts do not seem to work

[Bboy486]

I have 4 cameras in BI. I have everything setup based on optimization for CPU on the www.ipcamtalk.com/wiki/optimizing-blue-iris-s-cpu-usage/

As I write this I am in front on one of my camera on night mode. I have motion sensor checked under trigger with a few standard settings.

I have my PC open to BI and I'm expecting to see the camera start recording since I am creating motion.

However it is not doing anything. I'll look more that the trigger and record options but I was hoping to get some feedback.

Let me know what additional info I can give. Thanks.

Sorry for the bad screenshots. I did them from a RDP session.

2 second make time is pretty high. Try turning on the use zones and check those settings. Also watch the YouTube videos on motion detection & zones to learn how to use BI a bit more.

I believe in another post Fenderman said to not use the hot spot.

you should never...I think he meant the zones ..its the button is titled zones and hotspot...
the make time is your biggest problem...
also set a pretrigger time or your will miss video.

I adjusted the make time and it works now.
