Blue Iris suddenly stopped recording. I don't look n my Blue Iris folder unless something has happened. My monitor looked OK and my watch was giving alerts so I assumed all was well. Unfortunately all was not well and it had not recorded a thing for several weeks.
My archive and storage was set to 30GB and it was below this. I also had limit clip age ticked and have been advised to untick it, however that did not solve the problem of Blue Iris not recording.
A clue was clicking the status graph and then clip storage showed something, I think it was alerts, marked in red and with drive J showing a question mark. I don't currently have a drive J.
All my storage was in my documents, maybe this is a problem. Anyway the solution was easy. I went to my main drive, C drive, created a folder Blue Iris with 3 sub folders new stored and alerts and then reconfigured my clips and archiving to point at these 3 folders.
There are some other options marked aux 1, aux 2, these are , as before unconfigured.
re configuring the new, stored and alters paths fixed the problem.
This post is for the benefit of users having the same problem as me. I have fixed it now , but hopefully readers of this post can fix it in less than the hour it took me.
