    Small addition to UI3

    What about the "Restart Camera" menu option? Does that not reboot the camera?

    Deal: WD Purple 4TB Surveillance Hard Disk Drive $100 free shipping @ Newegg

    Not sure how much of a deal that is, it's been hovering around that price at amazon for a few months now.

    Wire length in junction box?

    I went IP and POE and I'm glad I did. It cost me a little more that I initially thought because I needed to get a POE switch but now I think it was worth it. Luckily, I found this forum and was able to use the WIKI to get a suitable PC and optimized Blue Iris.

    Fine tune motion

    Did you press the Help button while in the Motion Sensor screen? It will take you to the exact spot that explains what the boxes mean and how to make things more/less sensitive. What I have found though is there is never a 100% catch all the motion you want, it is best to do a continuous...

    BI crashes when accessing streams with actiontiles through web server

    I don't use the UI3 interface that much, but I know when that option is checked it has been crashing Blue Iris for me when ever I click to play a clip or an alert. I'm not sure what you mean by action tiles, I assumed you meant the clip/alert listing. You can only uncheck that item when you...

    Can I rotate video in Blue Iris if I mount this cam on the ceiling ? Amcrest 4MP UltraHD Indoor WiFi Camera

    Not sure what cameras are back ordered, but I order one on 22 May and received it on 27 May, but it was a turret camera.

    Alert Lines Missing and slow response to pull up calendar

    So you are using sub-streams? I had it set with one camera but there are too many issues right now, so I turned it back off, so it may just be a bug when using sub-streams.

    Alert Lines Missing and slow response to pull up calendar

    On the other item, my calendar comes right up almost instantly when I click on the icon. Where is your Blue Iris database stored? As stated next to the path "Important! Database and New should remain on Local/Fast storage". My DB is stored on my C:\ which is an SSD, so that could have...

    Alert Lines Missing and slow response to pull up calendar

    Isn't that what the little orange line at the very bottom shows you, otherwise I believe that multiple alert lines and lightning bolts would be too close together and would look messy.

    Clips showing incorrect length (v5)

    But, I just can't help myself! I want to try out the latest thing. I only turned the sub-stream on one camera and it did lower the resources, so once the kinks are worked out it's going to be nice.

    Date/Time Overlay

    Google is my friend. I thought I had set it, but obviously it was wrong. I've done enough stupid stuff today.

    Date/Time Overlay

    When using a time server in the Amcrest setup (and I set it up and my POE switch) all seem to end up off by an hour like it's not figuring DST correctly. Very weird.

    Clips showing incorrect length (v5)

    I removed streams on the one camera I had it enabled on as well. That was the only camera that had the issue, plus it had issues with alerts as well, guess it is still a work in progress!

    Clips showing incorrect length (v5)

    I did a repair and now there are gaps in that cameras recordings, but the 49day clips are gone :(!!

    Clips showing incorrect length (v5)

    I have now noticed this happening as well. I have 1 of my 4 cameras set to use the sub-stream and that seems to be the only one showing 49days, the other 3 using the main stream seem fine. Blue Iris v5.2.9.0

    Date/Time Overlay

    I was also looking for a way to change the overlay format, and wouldn't you know it, it was right there where you could setup a NTP server.

    Date/Time Overlay

    Now I feel stupid, I missed that whole section in the camera GUI setup. Looking at it now. Thanks.

    Date/Time Overlay

    I recently switched to using the Camera's Date/Time overlay and I have noticed several times that the time is behind two hours. As soon as I log into the camera's web configuration interface the overlay just to the correct value in Blue Iris. Not sure if this is a camera issue or a Blue Iris...

    Seems like a dumb thing to contact support about, he's probably got bigger issues to deal with!

    Amcrest IP8M-2496 setup question

    Amcrest IP8M-2496 setup question. I noticed under System, Auto Maintain there is an "Auto Reboot" that is checked for Monday at 04:55, this appears to be a default as I don't remember setting it. Is it a good idea to reboot the cameras once a week?

    Latest version crashes

    It is hard to turn it back off, but what I was able to do was double click in the timeline to bring up a clip/alert and for some reason it didn't crash and I was able to uncheck the "test run..." option. Since I did that I haven't had a crash.

    Latest version crashes

    @IAmATeaf Is "Test run video through motion detector" checked? That seems to be the only time I get crashing when viewing clips or alerts.

    5.2.8 - May 20, 2020 - Direct-to-disc BVR recording will now include metadata for video overlays

    Have also been noticing some "Clip: write error 80000456, undefined" errors lately. Not sure when those started.

    5.2.8 - May 20, 2020 - Direct-to-disc BVR recording will now include metadata for video overlays

    I had one camera last night that keep one of the yellow rectangles in the live camera view. It was after I blacked out an area in the motion sensor stuff to stop getting alerts from a certain area, so I thought it had something to do with that. I had to stop the service and restart it before...
