    Cams stoped after v5 BI upgrade

    Hi All,

    I apreciate IH is on its way out sadly...

    All presently still works for me untill I upgraded recently to V5 BlueIris. I had cam feeds added as a seperate object using HTTP and all was fine, upgraded to v5 BI and they stoped. BI has all same setting that I can see and feed still works in VLC - so any ideas what changed?

    Any way to get a BI v5 cam feed into IH still?

    It may not help as I don't use IH, but I have one of my BI5 cams working in HS4 using these manual settings:

              Thanks for this - I have this already but sadly if doing this in HS, it likely works to anouther outlet / app but not in IH. Cams added to IH via Spuds settings for the plugin use the same destails but too dont work sadly in IH. Whats odd is it works (the URL string) in VLC and did too work when adding and a cam as an object in IH, but only since upgrading to V5 BI from V4 has it stoped working, meaning the feed from BI must in some way be different? I have all the same settings as before and have even tried an old back up - no joy. All a bit odd.

              IH is for sure on tis way out, dead, already gone. Such a shame as I thought was great and have used it for so many years. I have looked at Homebuddy but I cant set custom images and doing so made quick recognition of dashboards / rooms/ switches so very easy. Also some other option that come close i have considdered, but estimates on getting to the point i am at is a 60 hour input including the learning curve - all just seems a bit of an up hill climb when right now all i needs is cam feeds back. Gues there is never a good time to jump to new software / upgrade howvere but once doen i apreciate its nealy always worhty the effort.

              Any other thoughts welcome and thanks in advance all.

                I too was a big IH user. I was forced to move on because I could no longer trick it to install on newer hardware. I looked and played with several options but ultimately moved to Jon's HSTile and couldn't be happier. It is similar to IH in the sense of the tiles for a layout but way more powerful. I even lifted some of the IH icons and repurposed them in HSTile so that my new interfaces look comfortably similar to the IH ones that replaced them. Jon's documentation and support is 2nd to none!

                  Jon does it again! not sure how I missed this but have visited Jon's site several times and am agast with just how much he has done - and offering for free too! Amazing work and greatly apreciated by many. Thank you for the recomendation. I shall make some time to have a play with this - agreed it looks a good match and too is cross platform so would also be an interface for my laptop too which would be of benifit. Not sure yet how the pages render cross platform. e.g a monitor screen compared to that of a small smart phone devcie. All I am sure will become clear when I start having a poke around. Thank you.

                    You can set page scale including aspect ratio depending on the device you are viewing on. If you need assistance with this, please post on my HSTile thread.
