I've been using Blue Iris for years now... And I've never been able to get auto-cycle to work. ON startup, I have my grid of cameras displayed. I would like to cycle thru all the cameras, one at a time, full screen.
There are three different dialog boxes that I've been working with..> The first is the 'gear' icon in the upper left, which opens 'Blue Iris Settings'. One of the tabs there, is for Cameras. The only selection that is logical here,
is one that says: "Only Auto-Cycle when camera frame is full-screen". That selection is rather nebulous. What actually does that mean? It does not seem to do anything when 'checked'.

The other dialog box, is the gear icon in the upper right, which opens the 'All Cameras' dialog.
The first line reads: "Segregate this group on Status/Cameras". What does that mean? Segregate WHAT group? Where should I look for Status/Cameras?
The 2nd line reads: "Require/Decode all videos..... ... ...". I don't think this pertains to auto-cycle. Maybe. Doubtful.

Under the Auto-Cycle dialog:
Auto-cycle delay, 5 secs. Good.
Checkbox for "Participate in group-cycle". What is the benefit of checking this box?
The rest of the selections under the Auto-Cycle diaglog box don't seem to do anything, nor do they make sense.

When I select the 'Auto Cycle' button (circle-arrows upper right), the system does NOTHING.
 
Don't know this is what I have mine set to and if I press the 2 arrows for Auto cycle it does until there is an event and then stays on that event until 5 seconds after it ends. Then starts over again.. Post a picture of your setup page Maybe you have it setup for a Trigger event before it will cycle?
