4.5.5 - May 8, 2017

  • Improved efficiency in the generation of the clips view for camera groups and/or removal of hidden cameras

  • Group images now default to a resolution of 960 for better resolution on HD monitors. You can still override this with any value on the group settings page.

  • The site canhazip is no longer used for retrieving your WAN IP address. There was nothing wrong with using this site, but an update to a popular package "malwarebytes" has caused this to be flagged as "suspicious." The software instead will now use the Blue Iris website for this purpose.

  • On the camera properties Video tab, you may now select either "ceiling" or "wall/vertical" (hemispherical) for the mounting of a 360-degree camera. This value is used as a default for the clip viewer's de-warping capability.

  • A new value "hemispherical" has been added to the viewer's right-click 360 de-warping menu. This method is appropriate for 360-degree cameras mounted vertically as on a wall or door. The viewer maintains a separate default value depending on the camera's "360" setting.
 
Is anyone else getting some video issues with this release? I only have one camera so I'm not sure if it's an issue with the camera or this software. At random I'm seeing a horizontal line or lines of scrambled pixels.
 
I didn't think to check to see if I'm seeing the corruption through the camera web interface. I'll check that when I get home.
 
The video corruption doesn't seem to appear on the camera's own web interface. Does anyone have a link to 4.5.4 so I can see if the problem disappears?
 
1 video display issue.
In the android mobile app, the bottom row of 3 cameras is not showing in portrait view, all cameras; it's blocked by the camera controls. If I rotate to landscape it appears.

Nope.
 
Sorry for having spammed this thread. I had to reboot my computer and the problem went away. I should have known better to have tried this first!
