Cam pictures bigger than screen

[Rob Heselwood]

My windows machine went down the other night, and after getting it back up and running again, Blue Iris is showing the camera's picture larger than they were before. I have tried moving the ones which are almost out of the monitor screen size , but they just go back to where they were.
I have also tried getting them back to the orinal sizes from the layout option, but that doesn't do anything either.

I have 4 cctv cameras and each one is showing a picture, albeit with 2 cameras, the picture is only half shown.

Any suggestions welcomed.

Can you post a screenshot or two of the issue to assist with diagnosis?

 

[Rob Heselwood]

The pictures are on a 2nd monitor, from where Blue Iris is, so how can I do a screenshot, from BI or other.

I've done a print screen from a keyboard, but can't find where the actual picture is.

Thanks

What is this '2nd monitor' plugged into (PC with Blue Iris?) and into what type of video port (VGA, HDMI, etc.) ?

 

[Rob Heselwood]

Yes, the 2nd monitor is plugged into the PC which has BI on it, and the port is VGA port on a graphics card.

Looks like a resolution issue...have you tried restarting?

 

[TonyR]

+1 ^^^.

If that restart fails, consider that your Windows config for multiple displays may have gotten boogered-up (a highly technical term) when your "...windows machine went down".

MS offers some help on multiple displays ==>> here.

Yes it was a resolution issue, doh!
After I went into the display settings I saw it straight away.
All's well now and back to normal.

Thanks
