Re: Low Framerate in Webviewer

Two things I use... 1. In the main UI screen, in the lower right, change the 'Qaulity' to an acceptable value that will produce good video. 2. In the UI Settings, in the section 'Video Player', set 'Max H.264 Kbps' to an acceptable value that will produce good video. Not sure if I need to do both. H...

Re: Overlay problem after Upgrade to 5.3.2.3

I believe there was a change in 5.3.2.3 in the way overlays were handled. It corrected the overlay issue I was having, but... well..., looks like it may have created another issue.

I would suggest sending BI Support a small 1 minute BVR and your overlay for them to inspect and recreate.

Re: How to snap photos at a given time and email?

Re: Trouble with zone crossing and motion detection

Have you tried 'Black & White'? This uses grey shades. When I've had problems fine tuning, I've cloned a camera 2 or 3 times (and more). Then, I can try several different combinations of settings to find one that works a lot quicker. It uses more cpu and disk WHILE your running the temporary clo...

Re: Admin User Privileges and subuser restrictions

... However I am curious about Blue Iris's admin user privileges. Can I create sub users that only have read access (wife)? Can I create users that only have read access for certain times of the day and/or for certain camera feeds only? ... Brad Yes, to both. Thru the BI settings User tab. And, by ...
