I'm using the allcams.htm for the clean look (since my screen is so small), and no need to look at clips from the display. It's running on Internet Explorer. I can definitely duplicate the issue by restarting BI. If you need me to test anything or try anything different, I'd be happy to. I really appreciate the tools you've given everyone.
I used to use the java viewer on my PC and that was my absolute favorite viewer but didn't realize it was causing CPU spikes on the server (until I learned, I misunderstood the CPU warnings in the instructions to be on the client machine, not the BI Server). But I may try it out again since it'll be running on such a small display - way less CPU drain on the server if the java viewer is being run on a smaller display if I'm understanding that correctly.
I've tried BI Companion and agree with your assessment of it. It was quite disappointing, and the UI needed a ton of cleaning up (graphics, wasted space), but kudos to them for making a windows app at all. Maybe it'll improve.
