Re: Return a camera to a given Preset.
One thing I have tried - turning on the 'Cycle' functionality, with the one position I want in the cycle. It appears the BlueIris ignores the cycle if it has only one entry. Works fine if I have two positions. As a workaround, I could define another preset that just happens to be in the exact same p...

Return a camera to a given Preset.
Short version - if I've been using the PTZ on a camera, is there a way to get BlueIris to send the camera to a given preset after some period of inactivity? I've been experimenting with zones and PTZ, and have things mostly set up. If there's activity in a particular zone, BI moves the PTZ to zoom i...

Re: 'Direct 2 Disk' seems to force continuous recording
It appears that the latest update (5.9.1.5) has improved the situation. I have 'Direct to Disk' enabled, I'm using only one stream, and the recording properly records continuously when triggered. It now records periodically, except that instead of just a snapshot, it records about 1-2 seconds of vid...

Re: 'Direct 2 Disk' seems to force continuous recording
In your screenshot you've set Triggered + Periodic so surely that is why it's recording 'continuously' ? No. When using software encoding, I get continuous video when triggered, otherwise I get 1 frame recorded every 5 seconds. The Recording icon reflects this - on when triggered, otherwise a blip ...

Re: 'Direct 2 Disk' seems to force continuous recording
As a work-around, I've enabled lower quality second streams, and set the recording to Continuous Sub + Triggered. However, the fact that it can switch between streams while using Direct to Disk would mean that Triggered + periodic is possible , but just not working - there's no technical obstacle to...

'Direct 2 Disk' seems to force continuous recording
I have been working on optimizing my setup, and have run into an issue when using 'Direct to Disk' recording. Previously, I used re-encoding, and had recording set up as 'Triggered+periodic' - every 5 sec, for 0 sec. This would record a snapshot every 5 seconds, and continuous when triggered. I swit...
