My current setup has 18 cameras recording 24/7, at 4k resolution.
Needless to say, this is a lot of disk space -- which isn't a problem locally-- but I'm also mirroring some of the most recent video to online cloud storage. But it's still a ton of files, to the point where the cloud app is constantly copying over blue iris files.
What I'd like to do is set up alternatives to each of my cameras, which only pulls the substream, saves that to a separate location, so I can just mirror that. That way, I have a low-res backup of the most recent x hours of recording in case something happens to the local storage. I'd have full res video stored locally.
I understand how to setup substreams in BI, but my understanding is that the normal way it works is that it stores the main stream, and uses the substream for multicam viewing, etc.
Is there anyway to accomplish this?
