Once in 10 triggers it might save the...

    I have a garage camera recording footage and I want to export a selection of video to a .mp4 but I only want to export a zoomed in area of the footage. Can this be done in BI or can I only export the full screen video?

    Auto updates no longer work

    I can't update to the last version released today. I'm running as a service and when I start BI it checks and identifies the latest update is available but when I click to update is does nothing. In the status bar it says downloading 0k/0k. Is anyone else having the same issue or is it just me?

    Is it only me or is everyone else constantly reconnecting to see streams?

    Ever since I installed this app 5 or 6 updates ago I've always had to sometimes back out and reconnect to the server or to camera live or alert clips 4 or 5 times. It happens at home on a very fast network or on the road with good signal strength. You load the app and the alert section in the...
