Genius. That's exactly what I did. TY.You probably turned on direct-to-wire streaming which prevents Blue Iris from embedding any overlays.

Actually... So I went under global settings and unticked the "direct to wire" for both stream 0 and 1. I also went into the record setting of a given camera (w/o the overlay in live) and set the recording 0 and 1 to also avoid direct to wire. I'm still not getting the overlay. Is there somewhere else that I'm missing?
ETA: NM, I found it. Leaving it here so others as challenged as I am know what to do. I edited the encoder profile in UI3 to go from "inheret" to "yes". I just put it back and i"M all squared away. TY again.
@bp2008 Oh, yes I see it there. I assumed it was not available because the keyboard shortcut did not work, at least not on my Macbook. (BTW, keyboard shortcut for reverse playback does work during clip playback)@actran
Reverse playback is already available, but to access it you need to be playing some recorded video using the timeline, and then click the gear icon where you would normally change the streaming quality.
The hotkey not working was an oversight on my part. Early in the development I wasn't sure if BI would support reverse playback on the timeline, so I had coded the hotkey to take no action in that case. Forgot to change it. Will be fixed in the UI3-222 release.@bp2008 Oh, yes I see it there. I assumed it was not available because the keyboard shortcut did not work, at least not on my Macbook.

Follow-up question: any chance to get keyboard shortcut to work for this scenario or is there a blocker in this situation?
That will be available in UI3-222 also.@bp2008 In parallel, different request: In upper right corner, any chance to add "Confirmed" and "Cancelled" as 2 additional options? Perhaps toggled via UI settings?

Dang, what took you so long, Brian? Getting a little slow as we age, eh?UI3-222 is now released with the above changes. As usual, this should be shipped with the next BI update, or you can manually update UI3 according to instructions here.
I think sometimes he must wander around the house with a keyboard strapped to his arm, ready to code at any moment!Dang, what took you so long, Brian? Getting a little slow as we age, eh?![]()
Yes, it is known. Blue Iris simply can't play audio on the timeline yet. If this matters to you, please request this capability from Blue Iris support so Ken will increase its priority.Is this a known limitation with timeline? If so, is there plans to get audio to work?
I can offer some thoughts.@bp2008 For Auto-Maximize feature, any thought about having an alternative behavior where you still display all the non-triggered cameras but at much smaller size? This way allows the user to select to a non-triggered camera if the action on the triggered camera has moved off that camera
What are the problems specifically? The low frame rate?I'm still getting horrible playback on my PC and phone unless I move the resolution down to something less than 720p. Looking at the stats for nerds, do that reveal any clues? I get the same playback on the BI mobile app on my higher-end android phone as well - so I'm not sure whether it's server or client (or both). The CPU on the client and server never get saturated and I'm able to speed test to my full GB up/down speed from my ISP while doing these tests, so I seem to have plenty of LAN bandwidth.
