UI3 All Camera Cycle....

[bigbillsd]

Is there a way to cycle a group? I created a group with the 4 most important cameras that I would like to be able to view on a TV. I have it working great except it cycles thru all 11 Cameras in the webpage. I would like it to cycle the new group I created. If I chose that I get a screen with all 4 camera feeds on the page. I would like to cycle thru them in full screen like I can do with "all cameras cycle".

Thanks, Bill

Choose your group here in Blue Iris and make sure you have checked "Enable camera auto-cycle stream". Then you should find it as an option in UI3's dropdown list.

bp2008, where do I find that menu? I cannot find it in UI3, nor in the BI software interface. I do find a webcast menu in each cameras properties but it doesn't look like your screen shot, none of those options.

Something else I just setup after getting a single new group cycle working, I created more group cycle groups and realized that the cameras can be in multiple groups. So that allows me a pick-list for Cycling of different groups, like subsets of cameras. I called one FrontView with 5 cameras, and another called StretView group where just 3 of the 5 cameras from the front of the house that overlooked the street. (basically I didn't include the front door cameras in StreetView) Then I created other groups, one for just the front door cameras etc. So now I can just cycle thru a particular subset from the TV's or tablets. This software is pretty cool! -Bill
