Absolutely love the new UI... Fantastic work guys... I was wondering... i see if I right click on the live view page and copy image address i can then paste that url in a new tab to go directly to "full screen overview live view" without the menu's etc.. I want to try and use this url as a direct link to embed an iframe in another application. Will this url always remain the same or does it change per session?
That is just a snapshot (not video) but anyway if you want to embed it somewhere you should remove the session argument from the URL and make sure
Blue Iris is configured to allow anonymous access to anyone who is going to connect to it.
Secondly... is there any hope to perhaps have a portrait view option / configuration? I am working on a family dashboard / calendar with a vertical monitor. If i could switch tabs to display a vertical version of ui3 that would be great!
Sure, you can configure a new camera group specifically for portrait view and tweak its frame size however you like here:
I've tried searching, and I can't find anything (I apologize if it's been addressed). However, since the addition of UI3, all the /admin urls redirect to the UI3 login page, regardless if they're being passed credentials. Many of these (that I'm utilizing) are scripted from home automation solutions.
Is there something that changed that I'm missing? Thanks!
Not that I know of. You probably changed the authentication method (maybe this happened automatically? I don't know). You need to disable the secure authentication requirement in BI's web server settings in order to pass credentials in a URL.
Very cool but i have a Problem
Current Group
ALL CAMERAS >> i can click on a Cam to Fullscreen. But when cam tiggert not going fullscreen
All CAMERAS Cycle >> Tiggert Cam going fullscreen. But in my overview with all cams i can not Click on a cam to open fullscreen
Can ui3 play tiggert Cam Alert sounds ??
Triggered cameras are not meant to go fullscreen. A group cycle however can be configured to prioritize cameras that are sensing motion (see the screenshot I posted just above in answer to someone else's question). So that behavior you described is as designed.
Sounds playing when a camera is triggered will be an option in the next UI3 release, maybe in a week's time give or take. I need to wait for the next Blue Iris patch before I can finish implementing and testing that feature in UI3, then I send the UI3 update to Ken, and Ken includes it in the next Blue Iris patch after he gets the update from me.
FYI the sound on trigger will not be enabled by default. You'll have to go into the UI Settings panel to choose a sound file to play (after the next UI3 update).
have UI3 running through my 49" LG Smart TV...love it!....have it set up as a favorite...is there a way to default it into "FULLSCREEN"?
Not entirely. Web pages aren't allowed to change fullscreen mode except in direct response to user input, and loading the page doesn't count as user input.
There is a URL parameter you can include in the URL to start with side and top bars hidden, but that probably is not what you want.
