Back to the comparison

From Blue Iris to camera.ui

Your cameras keep working, and the server no longer needs a Windows PC.

There is no importer. You add your cameras again. They keep their URLs, so there is not much to move.

What lives where

How the cameras come over

  1. 1

    Install camera.ui next to Blue Iris

    Most cameras serve several connections, so both can run while you compare.

  2. 2

    Add your cameras

    Turn on ONVIF and camera.ui finds them. Or copy the stream address from each camera in Blue Iris.

  3. 3

    Set up detection

    Pick the detection plugin for your hardware and draw your zones.

  4. 4

    Turn Blue Iris off

    Do it when everything runs the way you want. Not before.

What stays behind

Recordings and events stay in Blue Iris, camera.ui does not import them. Zones and rules you set up again. Keep Blue Iris as long as you need the old history.
