Anyone know why this keeps happening? It is really annoying. I am using BI 6.0.9.5 and am using the following settings for the web server. I use a bookmark on my browser to the IP and no matter what page I bookmark it still prompts me to do this. I am also using Firefox but I don't think thats the problem because before I upgraded to BI 6 it never did this.

You could edit your bookmark to be this:


You could add "&t=clips@group=index" (no quotes) at the end of that if desired.

This can be found in UI3 Parameters

I tried those URL operators but the username and password are both not being submitted and the "This site is asking you to sign in" pop up still appears. Is this just the nature of UI3 on BI6? I remember bookmarking any page on BI5 UI3 would sign in automatically when the setting was enabled and this pop up never appeared.


Edit:
Code: 
http://username:password@hostname:port/

That is the correct syntax for the URL. However I think it should be looked into as to why this pop up is appearing from Firefox when I am already signed in

You told Blue Iris's web server to use HTTP Digest authentication. That is the login prompt you're getting. It is a 100% mystery to me why it has popped up over the live video feed though. I don't use that authentication method. Switch to "Secure login page only" and it'll behave better.

I found the basic plain text option to be the only setting that didn't prompt me to the browser's login prompt or the UI3 login prompt
