Blue Iris UI3

[anijet]

This is looking really good.

A request - When viewing a live single camera could the right and left cursor be enabled to move to the previous or next camera without having to go back to the multi camera view?

Thank you for all your effort and time spent on this!

That would interfere with PTZ controls, but I think that could be accommodated with a different set of keys

Does your head ever spin bp2008? You've got so much built into this already and you're still at it. JEESH!

LOL. Doesn't your head spin too?

Beta b19 is available in the first post.

* Login Page: Added a context menu to "Log in automatically" and "Log in" controls, providing the additional option for automatic login to be instant or to have a delay.
* Improved clip list scrolling performance and browser stability.
* Fixed a bug in the duration labels of long clips that resulted in the "seconds" value always being 10.
* Fixed the issue that made clip thumbnail loading hang temporarily if scrolling fast in a large clip list.
* Reduced the chance for UI3 and Blue Iris to disagree about the duration of a clip that is currently being recorded. It can still happen quite easily, however, causing seeking to be inaccurate while using an H.264 streaming mode.

I can confirm that scrolling on clip list is faster now. Thanks @bp2008.

Same. Thanks @bp2008.

My head doesn't spin anymore. I fact, I retired about ten years ago and still wear my ID badge so I can remember who I am.

UI3 doesn't have a timeline. If you mean showing the position of alerts on the seek bar, that isn't something UI3 does.

It was mainly a Blue Iris question, not necessarily UI3 related.

I just can't seem to get alert indicators on the timeline in the main BI console.

Apologies, I'll ask elsewhere.

Ah, I'm not sure then. I don't really use the timeline.

Brian, really enjoying the b19 version on Chrome. The audio always plays in background, which I liked. Now when I also view some other website audio, the UI3 audio is also plays simultaneously. Could not find any knob or switch to flip to disable UI3 audio like UI2? Am I missing something? Thanks again for your great tool!

 

[bp2008]

UI3 audio is controlled by the volume bar in the lower left corner of the video area.

Streaming does stop if you minimize the window containing UI3 or if you switch to another tab in the same window.

 

[handinpalm]

Aaahh, I should have known. Should have moved the mouse a little more to show it pop up. Great! I always have UI3 on a background reduced size window while surfing in another window. Like the way audio still comes through.

Great Update. Love it!

For those wanting day and night versions of Preset Reference images, I created two batch files that will swap them out for a single camera. I use Windows Task Scheduler to run one at dusk, and the other at dawn.
Here is the code from the two files:

PresetAM.bat

rem Swap out the nite files and restore the day ones, 6AM for me


  rem Add .nite to the jpg files (preset_1.jpg -> preset_1.jpg.nite)
  ren *.jpg *?.nite

  rem Remove .day extensions (preset_1.jpg.day -> preset_1.jpg)
  ren *.day *.

PresetPM.bat

rem Swap in the nite files, 7PM for me

  rem Add .day to all files with .jpg extension (preset_1.jpg -> preset_1.jpg.day)
  ren *.jpg *?.day

  rem Remove all .nite extensions (preset_1.jpg.nite -> preset_1.jpg)
  ren *.nite *.

For a 64 bit system place the bat files in this folder:
C:\Program Files\Blue Iris 4\Cameras\Cam11
( CAM11 is the short name of the camera where I want to swap day/nite images. Your camera short name will probably be different.)

For initial setup, in the day time, save your presets with UI3. Then at your dusk, schedule or run the PresetPM.bat file. Your preset images will now be blank. (your day images are saved though)

Now resave your presets with UI3 for your night images. At dawn, schedule or run PresetAM.bat. Your day images will be restored and and the nite images will be saved and ready for swapping back in when you run or schedule the PresetAM.bat file again.

Remember, this will work for one camera. You could place the bat files in each shortname camera folder and schedule each of them to run. A real programmer could probably make this happen with one bat file or script and one scheduled task, but that is beyond my tinkering.

the lastest beta b19 is missing the settings (right corner) and the camera for taking photo.. and firefox timeouts the connect after 5 mins..

I can't imagine why the upper right corner icons would be missing unless the svg file failed to load, which should have resulted in a warning message being shown.

As for timing out after 5 minutes, is this after a period of inactivity or is something happening while you are using the UI? What happens when it times out?

First of all, like many others here, I'm loving this new UI3! Thanks for all your hard work on this.
Second, I'm sure it's just a PEBKAC error, but I can't seem to find how to change the new log in things you added below. Specifically looking for the instant log in. Are these under the settings, or actually on the log in page, or where?

Maybe a dumb question, but now that I have my first camera with audio, should audio work on Chrome? I get the volume control when I'm on that camera, but sliding the slider doesn't give any audio, and the speaker icon stays on mute. Clicking the speaker icon makes the volume slider go up and down but still shows speaker with a line through it (mute)
Thanks for the great UI!

Hmmmm.

You know what, this could be the doing of an antivirus/malware software. It sees the "application/octet-stream" mime type and assumes it is a file download, so it starts to scan the thing. Eventually it finds nothing and lets the stream through. That would explain the delay.

If you can confirm this, I'd be interested to know what the program is, and I'll also let Ken know to change the Content-Type header back.

Just wanted to let you know, that with v4.6.5.3 of BI and UI3 b19, this issue seems to be fixed. Did you have Ken make any changes?

Context menu = right click menu. Right click on the "Log in automatically" or "Log in" controls.

The line through the speaker icon indicates there is no audio available from the stream. Make sure you have enabled audio for the camera in Blue Iris.

Yeah, I asked him to revert the Content-Type change that was causing your antimalware service to think the stream was a file download and therefore something it should scan before releasing it to the browser.
