Today everything works. 32 days old clips were deleted as configured. I still wonder about the reason, why it happened... guess it's just one of those things.

Yeah, I did this after I deleted all the clips, which were too old. It sorted the size of used space out, so BI reports it correctly. I will see in a couple of days if the clips over 31 days are deleted as they should be.

Dear TonyR For storage, I only use e:\new, as per recommendations from wittaj in a previous post (January 2022). No "Stored" or "Aux" locations are used. DB is on C: is that what you mean by nesting conventions? I believe BI created the folders I use, but I'm not positive. What difference does...

Thanks a lot for your answers Wittaj. Usually, I have just below 4 TB free of the 10.9 TB total - so well over 10%. I will investigate if there are any flagged clips - I don't know if the system can do that by itself? I dont know how to do that, so I didn't do it. e:\BlueIrisAlerts is empty - so...

Hi oh you wise people! Our BI is set up to save clips for 31 days or 8TB - whichever comes first, I guess. This weekend I got an alert from our IT department that disk space was running low. The drive is 10.9TB, so there is normally plenty space. And indeed, the drive was full, and I can see...

Invaluable information, thanks a lot!

Thanks a lot, wittai. I just assumed, since the feature existed, it was best practice to use it. I now have allocated the full 8TB for "new" library to keep approx. 30 days of recordings there. I left the allocated size of the old library "BlueIris" at 7TB to not delete recordings premature. I...

Hi everyone, I hope to get some pointers about an issue I just discovered with my Blue Iris recordings. I have set my storage plan like this: Limited to 50 GB or 1 day goes to New at e:\new. 8000GB or 31 days goes to Stored at e:\BlueIris. What I discovered is that there are 41 old files (July...
