restart after auto update

Post by davidcbittner »

I am not sure why but probably about 2 times a week when blue iris does it's daily check and update (I have set for 7:00am) for all major and minor updates blue iris does not automatically restart or even check for an actual update.
It just shuts down at 7:00am it seems. I am going to have to shut the auto update off (I don't want too) but I am going to have no choice I think at this point. Is anyone else experiencing this with auto update turned on and scheduled.
I used to have it auto update at like 2:00am but I changed it to 7:00am I could not trust it to auto start at 2:00am when I really needed it to be recording activity at night.
Thanks

My advice is to turn off automatic updates for BI5 AND Windows, then do them manually when you have the time to deal with possible problems.

Are you sure you’re not talking about the database check/repair? That is set as default to every night at 2am but when it performs this task it stops recording so I’ve set mine to just once weekly and on a Sunday at 11am when I most likely will be at home in the day time.

100% positive. Blue iris shuts down completely and does not automatically restart

Are you running BI as a service?

My problem was solved by automatic update for my BI5 version. Thank! :)
