    Desktop frames dont automaticaly respond when editing

    running 5.7.0.5 2-22-23 When In layout mode if I drag a camera from one desktop frame to another it does not move until I adjust the size of the desktop frame then it magically moves to the target frame. Is there a setting I need to change so that it dynamically updates?

    Cannot access DS-2CD2042 with browser(S)

    I am good with that, but on Windows 10 it seems like it automaticly converted IE into edge. Is there a way to download an IE installable that Windows won't update? I'm not quite sure how this is working with Microsoft

    Patrol with motion tracking

    Do any of the HIK (or any other mfgr) PTZ cams have the ability to set up a patrol with presets but if it detects motion/person/auto then flip over to motion tracking until end of motion then go back to patrolling? I did a quick search but didnt see anything.

    Clip storage anomaly?

    Thanks Flintstone 61, I did mess around with the allocated space (up and down) and it didn't seem to make any difference.

    Clip storage anomaly?

    OK thanks for this. I have a spare drive of same size as storage drives. based on what you say, I was thinking on moving the clips from each drive to the spare, then formatting storage drive with 1024 cluster, then move the clips back to storage drives. Will this work or do I need to just format...
