I guess I'm not understanding the "Bypass Single-Camera Groups" UI3 option.

I have this option turned on but the camera groups that only have one camera in them are still showing in the drop down menu, even after Chrome and Windows 10 restart. Is there some other way in UI3 to hide groups with only one camera in them?
I just tested, that option still works. What it does is make it so that when you choose a group with only one camera in it, UI3 will skip loading the group view, and load the single camera's view instead.
I really like the Timeline view but its highlighted an issue with camera labels.
I've now enabled labels 'Above' the images for the benefit of people in the household who don't know the camera colours to match to the timeline events. However in certain browser window sizes the camera labels are cropped as if the extra height isn't included in the resize logic - is this expected? I see this on Chrome, Firefox and various platforms. The same happens for 'Below' labels and I would rather not lose image by having the label on top of the image.
Another thought about aiding timeline to camera identification - what do people think about the idea of having an option for the camera name to be overlaid on the coloured band?
UI3 doesn't get to control camera layout well enough to make room for the labels, hence why I provided so many options for where to position them. Either you need to make room for the labels yourself by manipulating the group layout, or use
Blue Iris's built-in camera labeling function which DOES make room for the labels. To find BI's built-in labels, try right clicking the group video stream in UI3, and choose Group Settings. More on that in this thread:
