Same here. I wish the devs every success, the software is brilliant. I was happy to pay for 5.5.4.5 and consider it a bargain, I'll continue for my 1 year period to update and provide bug reports when I can.

There have been reports of erratic behavior with every update after 5.5.4.5 and I am not going to update until the next stable release. Unless there's a compelling reason, I advise beginner level folks do the same. Agreed x100000 for systems that depend on stability, consistency and reliability. Ne...

I'm using the January 2022 CPU build of Deepstack and finding BI5 has different behavior between 5.5.4.5 and 5.5.5.11. Lately I've been noticing DS not picking up many events. I have BI5 configured to send 8 images, 1 second apart to DS for analysis. 5.5.4.5 appears to send all 8 images at the right...

netcat on linux if you want to really get into it or angry ip scanner on windows for a pretty interface.

I agree to make things as simple as possible, most home users shouldn't have a need for that feature. If anything, I'm surprised there's so much configurability in the BI5 application for networking. I tried to conjure up with a scenario above where the X-Forwarded-For could be relevant but just as ...

What do you mean by the "VPN IP"? The VPN IP on a small network is usually on teh same subnet but on larger networks, often on a different subnet. I'll do a rudimentary deep-dive that misses massive design aspects but it should help you understand and it'll be a bit longer. In most network...

Unsure how BlueIris uses X-Forwarded-For headers, but try unselecting that and trying again. I'm going to make a number of assumptions about how BI5 handles that checkbox ahead - X-Forwarded-For is used (from a network security perspective, usually by inexperienced developers) to identify known and/...

Can you browse to the DS web server instance (default is http://127.0.0.1:82 ) ? If not, open task manager > details > right click the labels at the top (eg Name PID Status CPU etc) > Select Columns > near the bottom select Command Line > OK For the "server.exe" process, you should see som...

@GatrSalr - what brand and model cameras do you have? Just in case you haven't found this bit of info, DeepStack needs "iFrame" images from the camera to analyze. If your cameras aren't sending iFrame images often enough, that might cause the symptoms you describe. Can you set the iFrame i...
