Some of my cameras have an asterisk against their name, so for example Drive1* but Drive2 doens't.

Tried searching the help files but found nothing, anybody have any ideas what it signifies?

The camera that has the asterisk after its name is probably a clone. All of my clones have that asterisk.

What does this little yellow triangle mean?
Can your camera push 60fps and 120 iframe ? I assume it means you are having a issue with that setting. What happens if you drop the fps does it go away ?

You having said that it does make sense. I have cloned Drive1, Drive2 and Extension with the same name but _C added to the end. But Drive1 has an asterisk as does Drive2_C and Extension_C as per the screenshot which is what confused me.

Thanks that got me to thinking and I looked at the settings in blue Iris and somehow my frame rate there got set to 33 after a software update so I changed it to 62 and the issue went away.

I tell a lie just checked the cameras and what they are streaming and Drive1 is a clone, looks like I’ve actually made a boo boo when setting up the clones.
