    Blue Iris Tools - Weather Overlay, Watchdog & more!

    I just created a WU acct, then created a PWS that I named ‘Virtual’, haha. Then I got an API key, plugged it into BIT, hit update and my BIT weather updated for the first time in months. I wonder if the virtual PWS is even needed? I did that step first so I’m not sure if it will give you an...

    Blue Iris Tools - Weather Overlay, Watchdog & more!

    Hey guys in reading the fix for the BIT weather updates on the posted on the openthings.freshdesk site mentions this: If you don’t own a physical PWS, the generated PWS will not provide valid data. Do NOT use this PWS for weather adjustments. Several users noted this fix as working. Are they...

    Trouble with recent version, cam windows from UI

    Hey guys. I use a USB monitor connected to the machine that runs my BI. Otherwise I essentially use the machine headless as it’s in a closet. The monitor is mounted on a wall. I have had this setup for over 5 years. I setup the machine to start the BI.exe automatically when windows boots up. I...

    Just a quick update, an uninstall/reinstall seems to have fixed my issues. Weather is updating now and all is good. Thanks guys.

    No luck. I didn't have my logs enabled. I just now did, then tried a few more weather updates. It just simply says weather update error in the logs. I will keep an eye on that though and see what else I find in there. This weekend I will try the uninstall/reinstall that AMP suggests...

    I wish it was that simple. I have tried multiple different stations, some in other states with the same result.

    Blue Iris Tools - Weather Overlay, Watchdog & more!

    I have updated to version 1.6.0 (automatically) and I am still getting in red at the bottom of the app "Error connecting to Wunderground, check your internet connection / station ID." I have tried several different local station ID's (Edit: Not airports) as well as some random ones not local...

    Changing resolution causes zoom?

    This is probably a dumb question, or I’m doing something wrong... When I go into the video setup page on my cams and change the resolution from 720P to 1080P, the cam seems to zoom in a bit further and the field of view narrows a bit. Is this normal? Or am I doing something wrong? Cams are...

    BlueIris on your TV!

    The browser has a built in mouse feature where a dot appears and you navigate it around just using the direction arrows on the remote. Works great. Little clumsy but works great. Another option is a blue tooth mouse & keyboard combo I was checking out last night. That was actually one of the...

    BlueIris on your TV!

    Thanks for the video walkthrough Matthew! To Matt, or anyone else running the BI app on a FireTV: How is the stability for you guys? I’m hoping to just simply leave my FireStick BI app up and on my ‘all cams’ group pretty much always so I can just quickly change inputs on my TV for a quick...

    Blue Iris UI3

    Huge UI2 fan, just saw this thread and installed UI3. Woa :wow: first impression is that it's smokin fast compared to UI2 for me, and looks slick. I have some input, but I'm gonna go read the thread first...

    I made a better remote-live-view page [OLD]

    Quick question that's probably been covered but I can't find it.... how do I control the number of cameras/rows that display in BI2? I have 12 cams, and BI2 shows 3 rows of 4 cams. I would prefer 4 rows of 3 cams. Maybe it's not possible? Thanks guys.
