So i was finally able to get a standalone machine fo rmy camera software but am running into issues with the new install.
I installed the BI software v5 then imported my settings from the old server (using import/export tool). Now one of the cameras is not working at all and I cannot get connected to it. No changes made to the cameras.

the web interface of the camera works no probelm but i cannot connect to the camera via BI. I turn on the old server and the cameras work fine.
