I dunno maybe crowdfunding this initiative might be an option. But use of a Blue Iris or other NVR with similar capabilities (and thus a dedicated transcoding PC, etc., etc.), is pretty rare and takes a big commitment on the part of such households.

If a significant portion of our Customers used Blue Iris, we'd have special incentive for further research. There are significant hurdles to add any within-page authentication in ActionTiles to embedded sources. I guess it's best to have multiple layers of security but at the same time, security of the LAN (via strong WiFi encryption and router firewalling and VPN protection for any access from the Internet), quite a formidable 'first moat'. You mention that you'd prefer to not shut down security 'in LAN'.Desktop browses block embedded 'mixed content' in many cases. I presume you mean SSL, https? That should work fine within ActionTiles in fact, it's preferable. I don't have hands-on experience with the software or this configuration, so I hesitate to jump in prematurely, but I have a couple questions regarding M.a.S.e's comment. Blue Iris is more incredible than I ever knew, and the success of proof-of-concepts here are wonderful to see. I really appreciate you guys continuing to have this discussion. My Router/Firewall has Port 80 and Port 443 opened to the local IP of my Apache web server.The domains and have their DNS A records set to my WAN IP.I have a static WAN IP, however you may use a DDNS service if you don't have access to a static WAN IP.I suspect Chrome regards each sub-domain (what is then reverse peroxided to the BI server) as a

Additional sub domains can of course be created, with each one supporting 6 concurrent connections to the BI server. I only have 9 cams, so only need two sub-domains.I use for generating the Apache SSL certificates.(Only relevant sections, not full nf file!)Īnd that is pretty much it however it is worth noting: More than 6 cameras coming from same BI serverįor the TLDR version, basically run Apache web server as a reverse proxy to the BI server and have multiple sub domains reverse peroxided to BI, with each one supporting 6 concurrent connections in Chrome.Ģ) Apache's nf file is configured as follows.Over standard HTTPS with User / Pass Authentication.Working Solution for Blue Iris Integration into Action Tiles that features
