Lost my timeline!

[Cam_curious]

I have been running BI for a month or so and it has been working great.
I am running the latest release, 4.7.3.0 x64 on Win 10.
Windows wanted to update today and reboot so I let it.

When it came back BI worked OK and I could see my 4 cameras OK.
But the blue timeline strip is gone for all cameras. I am doing
continuous recording with trigger markings. If I reset a camera
the blue timeline comes back along with the trigger indications just
like normal. However if I cycle through the cameras the timeline
disappears again. The video clips on the right of the screen are all
there as is normal. I have made no changes in BI's configuration in
weeks. I have lots of free space on my disk: 4.27 TB. I am running
BI as a service.

What happened? Did the Windows update change something?
Was there a BI update that happened at the same time?

Right click in the area where the timeline should be and make sure the show timeline view is checked in the popup menu.

Thanks, I checked it and the "Show Timeline View" is checked for all 4 cameras.

It's all the same menu regardless of which camera you select. Does anything change if you try to toggle it?

I tried toggling it and no luck: no timeline. If I do "Restart camera" then the timeline
comes back. If I cycle the cameras the timeline is lost again.

Another think that I just noticed is that after some time the timeline will
just pop back. This happens after maybe 10 minutes without me doing
anything. It is not related to when BI moves to the next recording clip
which are about 1 hour 20 minutes long.

That's odd, I would email support.
