    Blue Iris RTSP Stream Logging Out

    Looks like this was an RTSP timeout bug in Blue Iris! They told me it was fixed in 6.0.4.5. I tested it and it's working now in VLC media player.

    Blue Iris RTSP Stream Logging Out

    I'm not exactly sure what is causing the RTSP stream to stop/drop with VLC media player but for now I'm going to try to report this as a bug to VLC. I'm not sure if it is, but I'm leaning toward it being an issue with VLC. UPDATE: In 'Message' of VLC player, it throws out this error when it...

    Blue Iris RTSP Stream Logging Out

    What version of Blue Iris? I updated to the latest (6.0.4.4) to see if there was any difference but it still fails. I was using an older version of Blue Iris (5.9) last year when it worked (after reporting it and Blue Iris fixing it) but that was a different camera and computer. So perhaps the...

    Blue Iris RTSP Stream Logging Out

    Thanks... maybe a bug in VLC media player... I need to find another RTSP stream player to test with.

    Blue Iris RTSP Stream Logging Out

    Camera seems to stream fine to Blue Iris. Here, try it yourself: rtsp:/test:testtest123@skycam.tetrion.com:81/skycam NOTE: Suppose to be two slashes after rtsp: but the forum keeps changing it. Does it work? And for how long does it stream until it stops?

    Blue Iris RTSP Stream Logging Out

    And looks like it is broken again. Trying to setup a new system now and it looks like this problem has returned. Opening an RTSP stream in VLC media player works for a few seconds then stops/disconnects. Using Blue Iris 6.0.3.8. Emailed Blue Iris support.

    Blue Iris RTSP Stream Logging Out

    Same problem here!!! After updating to the latest stable version - 5.9.1.6 (5/24/2024). I am going to try to revert to a previous version. Well, trying to upgrade to the latest version first (5.9.2.3)... let's see if that fixes it... RTSP streaming now... will it hold for over 2 minutes...

    Keep rain off lens? Rain-X?

    Wow... that looks interesting but way more than I need and the HOA and/or my neighbors would probably complain about something that big and noticeable anyway.

    Keep rain off lens? Rain-X?

    I wonder if one could you use something like that with a Rain-X type product?

    Keep rain off lens? Rain-X?

    Thank you. If I knew how to easily and quickly make a custom rain shield then I might try that... but at this point I am not sure how to do that. Are you aware of any YouTube videos or web pages that would help with this? Putting the camera under the overhang didn't work for the way I wanted...

    Keep rain off lens? Rain-X?

    Well, I don't want to obstruct any of the camera view. Do you know of a rain shield that would work with a Hikvision DS-2CD2032-I ? I have searched for them but didn't see anything that I thought might work. Maybe there is a silicon one that I can wrap around the camera to provide some extra...

    Keep rain off lens? Rain-X?

    Found this: camera and rain!!! Some ideas to try but no real definite answer on whether it's a good idea to use a rain repellent.

    Keep rain off lens? Rain-X?

    Yeah... which is why I'm asking. Maybe I should just leave it as it is? I'm hoping there is something safe and effective though.

    Keep rain off lens? Rain-X?

    I have a sky/weather cam and when it rains some drops form on the lens and it 'disturbs' the image. What is the best way to keep rain drops off the lens? I don't want anything complicated. Is there something simple like Rain-X I could apply on the lens to prevent water droplets from forming &...
