5.9.3 - June 11, 2024
Creation of “clipboard items” has been moved to the Trim/Export window. The “MP4 2-
pass” option has been moved from that window to the Encoder settings window.
The clipboard button in the viewer is now used to toggle video playback cropping.
Previously, only clipboard items were cropped for playback, but now it’s possible to crop
alerts and general BVR clip playback as well. This option defaults to enabled but may be
disabled with a new setting on Settings/Other. This option makes it much easier to work
with individual alerts by limiting the extent of the video playback slider.

Update 5.9.3.3

To view a DAT file in Blue Iris, we previously had these options:

1. ctrl-double-left-clicking an Alert in the clips list.
2. dragging & dropping DAT files from Windows File Explorer onto an already opened Blue Iris Status > AI window.

With this update, Ken has modified Blue Iris to offer these alternatives for opening a DAT file directly in the Blue Iris Status > AI window, even if it is not yet open

1. double-clicking a *.dat file in Windows File Explorer.
2. hitting the Windows key on the keyboard and pasting the full path of a DAT file, followed by the Enter key
3. programmatically.
   For example in PowerShell, using the command Invoke-Expression "$dat_filespec", where $dat_filespec is a string like 'D:\BlueIris\Alerts\FD.20240613_080000.3577393.5-0.dat'.
