Hey everyone,

New to Blue Iris and love it so far! My only issue so far has been trying to get MQTT up and running. I'm running Blue Iris on a windows 10 machine. Home assistant is being run on the same machine in a virtual box and MQTT is working fine. Have one other device that is connected to it just fine.

For the life of me I can't get MQTT to work with blue Iris. I've set my server up address and have pressed test buttons both in the individual cameras and the overall blue Iris settings and I get success showing it connects.

On the home assistant side, I see nothing. I try listening for the message in developer options in home assistant when I test as well have tried manually triggering the cameras with no success. Is there something I'm missing?

I recently installed MQTT on Windows 10
The MQTT windows service doesn't start by default.
Either start the service or reboot.
