Getting the hang of it

We may not be understanding each other - the issue isn't with the main interface, but with the new web interface (UI3). FWIW, I don't have that option in the main program (or UI3) where you indicate steps 1 & 2.
The settings that control the UI3 web layout are in the main Blue Iris (server) program under the camera group settings. I've also got a monitor in portrait mode and get 4 rows with no problem.
Can you post a screen shot of your encoding profile settings (in BI - Options, Web Sever, Advanced..., Configure... (Encoder profile)), and the Camera Group Settings (the same screen that @bp2008 posted above)?
If you input something like 1088 x 2416 as the frame size in your camera group settings, does that change anything for you when you open UI3?

can you tell me how you got UI3 to display the cameras in 4 rows?
For 4 rows on a portrait monitor, my "specify frame size" is set to 896x1800, but yours will depending mostly upon the resolution of your monitor and somewhat on the ratio of the camera images.
I assume that you realize that you will only be able to have 1 or 2 cameras per row, right? I mean, you can have as many cameras per row as you want but with a monitor which has a display that is twice as tall as its width, the wider-than-tall images from the cameras will get very tiny if you try to show more than 1 or 2 per row. Basically, the width you specify has to be the same as, or slightly larger than the width of single camera image if you want one camera per row. It doesn't matter what the height is (I don't think) as long as it is greater than the (#cameras X one camera image height). If you want 2 cameras per row then use twice the width of one camera or slightly larger as the width value (I think you can keep the same overall height value as all the cameras). Three cameras per row, then 3 times the width, and so on.
Just start plugging in some numbers for frame size and see what you get. From there you should be able to figure it out.
You wouldn't believe how often I have to post this image. Adjust the group frame resolution here until you're happy with the layout. You can type whatever numbers you want in the box and don't need to choose an option from the dropdown.
This actually answered another question I had!!! Was wondering where to change to auto-cycle time.
Thank you!
UI3 version 15 has the ability to export clips or parts of clips in AVI format. I'd appreciate any testing anyone is willing to do on this feature in the next few days, since this is a weekend and Ken probably isn't going to be pushing this out in a BI update for a few days.
You can get version 15 from here: bp2008/ui3
Simply extract the zip into your "Blue Iris 4/www" folder and overwrite everything.
