I was thinking of replacing my Windows 10 Blue Iris machine video card with one that support 4 HDMI outputs. I then want to run cables to each monitor across my house. However before I do that I wasn't sure if it's possible to have different configurations on each monitor on the same Blue Iris machine. I tried using the web interface, and the java viewer but the frame rate is much slower. So I was thinking just getting the outputs straight from the Blue Iris machine.

Here is what I 'm trying to do coming from the Blue Iris box.
1. HDMI 1: One monitor with the camera going in a cycle.
2. HDMI 2: Another monitor with all the cameras on one screen.
3. HDMI 3: Another with just one camera, like a monitor near the entry door focused on the entry camera.
 
For numbers 2 & 3 I do very much the same, although with three monitor outputs (one to a splitter that then goes to four TV's, everything HDMI). I do it with duplicate cameras and "Open in desktop frame". Use New Camera and Copy From Another Camera from within that window. Open in desktop frame, move it to the monitor on which you want it, and move and resize as you desire. Blue Iris is so robust there are probably six other better ways but this works for me.

The help file (your friend) references auto-cycle but I have never used it
