and I could add multiple dns entries for it to resolve to my own internal ip address of the BI server, I suppose.

That’s a reasonable approach. You could even just use wildcard DNS entries like those from nip.io:

http://group2-192.168.1.11.nip.io:81/mjpg/cam3
http://group2-192.168.1.11.nip.io:81/mjpg/cam4

How do I get Blue Iris to work in SharpTools?

That’s the approach I was referring to above with using a Custom Tile (immediately above your reply). In the blog example, they are using a valid SSL cert port forwarding, and domains… but if you just want to view locally, you could probably used the mixed content setting mentioned in my post above. A key thing they missed in their post is you must enable iframe support within Blue Iris web server settings. I actually just bought another Windows and Blue Iris license so I could spin up a VM to…
