Anyone know if the end result will allow us to stream the main stream to UI3?

He has to make that work. Give the guy some time.
Thanks - wanted to know what the end game was.

No one knows what the end game. But it makes sense that he would make that an option.

Known around here
I don't know what the difference is in the last several patches, but somewhere along the way, two of the bugs I reported have been fixed.

Getting comfortable
Ready for prime time?
I finally figured out what the culprit setting was. I finally found what was different on the cams not pulling sub stream was. They were set to re-encode instead of direct to disk. I guess I never knew that was a requirement, but I do now

Hmm, that is probably just a bug. Hard to say.
I don't really use the actual BI interface. It's a headless server in the corner of my basement where it belongs, so I'm UI3 all the way.
Not sure what .7 changed. I didn't really see any differences.
I'm loving the addition of substreams, as I'd already used them in other NVR programs, but I'll wait until it only uses them for internal stuff and still uses the main streams for the web UI. Right now, I can do that by turning on audio through UI3, but it's not a good solution.

Pulling my weight
Long time lurker and Blue Iris user (started with V3), I just registered to add what I found with configuring subtreams.
It took me a couple of days, but I also discovered that if you have AOI enabled, it conflicts with substream. I couldn't remove AOI by unchecking it either, I ended up deleting and re-adding the camera and it's working fine with substream. Not sure if I'm going to leave it that way, the AOI configuration solved a problem with Sentry picking up people outside of the motion trigger zone, resulting in false alerts.
Other than this one glitch, it's working well, CPU went from around 40% down to 10%.
It took some sleuthing to determine the substream URL for a couple of cameras. I used Onvifer on my Android phone to find the substreams.

This function is not available. If you want it email support and ask for it. In the interim you can do it the old way by cloning the camera and recording the substream continuously.
I was told that is the way it has to be "must have direct to disk selected" He stated he would make this more clear.
I would like the feature as well. I have emailed support to ask for it. Perhaps you can as well?

I am still only seeing sub-stream on UI3 with 5.2.7.9 ?So 5.2.7.9 appears to be streaming main stream now in UI3
Your correct, I got all excited ....and clicked the wrong link. It's been a long day
