the startup and shutdown folders" option, Blue Iris will upload files that you specify when Blue
Iris is started (or a camera is created), and when Blue Iris is shutdown (or a camera is
destroyed).
Blue Iris will upload all files contained in the following folders:
C:\program files\Blue Iris\Cameras\<ShortCamName>\Startup
C:\program files\Blue Iris\Cameras\<ShortCamName>\Shutdown
Target
You may post the images to either the built-in web server (See 8.) or another web server,
either local (such as IIS on the local machine), or remote (via FTP upload).
The built-in web server may be used to simply serve a list of these files, or you may create a
simple HTML page which displays selected images.
Use the Post files to a folder option to feed a local IIS server application.
Use the Post files to an FTP server option to feed a remote website. Select a server that you
have configured on the Options/FTP
(See 11.) page. FTP errors appear in the message log. If a
yellow warning icon appears in the Blue Iris status bar (See 5.), click on the "stopwatch" icon in
the toolbar (See 4.) to view these error messages.
7.8 Schedule
You may setup a global schedule on the Options/Schedule (See 11.) page. However, this
camera properties page allows you to create and maintain a custom schedule which specifies
when this camera specifically should be active. When the camera is active, triggers such as
motion detection (See 7.3) are used to record clips (See 10.) and to generate alerts (See
7.5). By default, images are posted (See 7.7) only when the camera is active. The schedule
does not affect webcasting (See 7.6).
