Snapshots

[LJR_2019]

Is there any way to get the snapshots to use the main stream when I am using sub streams? It only takes images of the sub stream, would be nice to have a full image.

Thanks!

Um, yes...

5.3.3 - September 30, 2020 When using dual-streaming, JPEG images will be created from the main-stream instead of the sub-stream where possible. Rather than fully spooling up main-stream decoding, the software uses the direct-to-disc pre-trigger frames buffer to synthesize these images. This...

I've tried 5s to 30s on the pre buffer, and still all I get is sub stream snapshots.

It worked for me, but it would cause BI to crash. While troubleshooting (playing around with camera and BI settings), the snapshots changed from main stream to sub stream. No idea what triggered that. I've rolled back to last stable version for now after passing on a bunch of troubleshooting info to BI support.

Update: Fixed with 5.3.3.4.
