Simple place to see where each camera is recording to?

[JT Blue Iris]

Is there a place to see a simple spread sheet listing each camera and where it is being recorded to?
# of days recorded would be nice too..
I am on 5.7.0.5

Not that I am aware of, the details of the camera record location is stored in the windows registry along with all of the camera details that are shown on the camera setup screens.

What are you trying to accomplish with the information?

Other directories can be summarized as well (see...

It's one of the first of a number of Blue Iris 'helper' projects I've posted here.
I migrated this one from a personal PHP script -- to make it more accessible, as I suspect very few users also have PHP installed on their Blue Iris server.
