I just installed blue iris 4.6.6.0 and setup my only camera. I was playing around with the settings and somehow the video display dissappeared. So i added a new camera and got it setup. The second one is working ok but the first one still seems to be running somewhere as it is recording clips.

How do I find the first camera I setup and remove it ?

Thanks,
Kent

Thanks for the quick reply !! I have tried that and no luck. I named the first camera "Back" and it somehow dissappeared from the viewing window. Then I added another camera and it would not let me name it back so I named it "back2". Back2 is working ok, but I am seeing clips from camera name "Back" also. very weird ... so it is working and recording clips

ok, on the bottom left - to the left of the ptz controls there is a dropdown menu, ensure all cameras is selected and that the camera icon under it (left most) is gray (that is the solo selected camera icon).
