I've never seen it look like this before...is this a new thing?
FWIW, I am running "Repair DB", but I just don't understand why it looks like this. Help?

LOL - now explained in the help file too.

I just wanted to let you guys know that I finally figured it out. Ken told me that the gold part of the bar indicates that a drive designated as exclusive use has other files present. These could actually be Blue Iris files if they are part of the database or the log however, they could also represe...

Blue Iris has so much potential...there's just no telling what all it could do, if only we knew what all of it was, and exactly how to use it. This mystery yellow/gold thing is just a tiny example of a thing that is right there in the interface for all to see, but not mentioned in the documentation ...

That's a good thought, but it looks totally simple and clean to me: Screenshot 2024-04-23 194333.jpg Notice too that the 9313.98 GB shown by Windows doesn't match any of the numbers shown by Blue Iris.

Well...I think that most people would very understandably expect the advertised drive size to be the same as the OS reports. But I've been working with computers since the dawn, so I do understand that binary HDD bytes are not the same as what the OS reports. I personally feel like it's ridiculous, ...

Please see attached screenshot. What does the yellow/gold color indicate? It would be nice to get more than 9TB out of a 10TB drive.

Thanks for the reply. No, I didn't change the name, although I am aware of how problematic that can be. In a way, it's the same problem...there has to be a way to update the database.

I moved the .BVR files for one camera to a new drive, and now, clicking an alert renders only a still image. I tried Database Repair/Regenerate, but it didn't help. Here's the backstory: I got hit by check fraud. I very much wanted to see exactly how and when the check went out. In particular, I wan...
