Hi,
I have been very happy with Blue Iris for over a year now with 9 4K cameras.
My original setup was a 14TB drive for 24/7 and a 14TB drive for Events. All in full resolution. But problems are brewing. The 14TB of Events smells trouble. One problem is the number of files which will exceed 1 million. "Repairing the DB" will take over a week. The other is that events without associated 24/7 are harder to navigate (e.g. no synchronized view obviously). So I decided to switch to "Database only" and free up the second drive.
My question is, if I switch to "Database only", is there a way to maintain the Event markers so they still show in the side bar? I understand the new markers will go there but will the old ones be lost?
Thank you.
