UI3-227

Version 227

• Limited users with camera admin privilege and PTZ privilege are now allowed to set PTZ presets.
• Allow pinch to resume if one finger lifts and touches again.
• MQTT client will add a '/' to the end of the broker URL if it is missing, to avoid a connection error.
• UI3 now tolerates multiple '@' symbols at the start of the "rec" URL parameter value.

UI3-226

Version 226

• Added MQTT topics ui3/instance_id/playaudio and ui3/instance_id/playtts so that UI3 can be remotely commanded to make noise.
• Extended the MQTT section of the help file to cover the new topics.

UI3-225

Version 225

New Features

• 4320p (8K) streaming profiles are now available out-of-box, but to reduce clutter they are only created if/when a camera or group is detected with native resolution above 3840px.
  • The "4320p VBR" profile assigns quality 20 and a bit rate limit of 5000 Kbps ("2160p VBR" is 3000 Kbps).
  • The "4320p" profile assigns quality 50 and has a bit rate limit of 16386 Kbps ("2160p" is 8192 Kbps).
• Timeline tab:
  • The play/pause button and other playback navigation controls are now available while video is LIVE.
  • Jump/seek backward behaviors are now implemented as appropriately as possible while video is LIVE.
  • Jump/seek forward actions still have no effect while video is LIVE.
• Added "Connection Status Messages" boolean setting under "MQTT Remote Control" settings category.

Changes

• UI3's streaming profiles can now specify bit rate limits above 8192 Kbps (up to 100,000 Kbps), allowing higher bit rates to be utilized without needing to disable the limit altogether.
• "Maximum H.264 Kbps" setting max value increased from 8192 to 100000.
• Edited default VBR profile abbreviations to better match their non-VBR equivalent profiles.

Bugfixes

• Fixed minor issues with portrait layout:
  • Fixed control panel extending 15px underneath the server status panel.
  • Adjusted padding of PTZ controls so padding is below each item instead of above.
  • Prevent breaking a column in the middle of a set of PTZ presets.
• Fix for playback controls click-through bug.
• Clip export start and end markers flip their orientation as needed to prevent drawing partly offscreen.
• If the clip export controls are opened while not on the "Clips" tab, then the "Clips" tab is loaded to ensure that the export controls can become visible.
• Fixed minor issue where "LIVE" text did not get removed when beginning to seek on the timeline.

UI3-224

Version 224

• Clip list filters now allow selection of folders through Aux 13 (was previously limited to Aux 7).

UI3-223

Version 223

• Fixed a bug introduced in UI3-220 where the HTML5 player could unintentionally drop some frames just after the start of a video stream, potentially causing video corruption until the next keyframe arrived.
• Two in-app URL parameter mentions revised to no longer include quotation marks around the parameter text, because this was confusing to people who don't understand URL parameters.

UI3-222

Version 222

• Fixed unintended rendering style of hotkeys in the UI Settings panel. Likely was wrong since about UI3-216.
• The "Toggle Reverse" hotkey now works during timeline playback.
• Added UI Settings > Top Bar > "Shortcut to Cancelled Alerts", disabled by default.
• Added UI Settings > Top Bar > "Shortcut to Confirmed Alerts", disabled by default.

UI3-221

Version 221

• Added "Full Range Color" and "Direct-to-wire" settings to Streaming Profiles. Requires Blue Iris 5.5.9.2 or later.

UI3-220

Version 220

• Improved compatibility with "Direct-to-wire" streams which do things differently than Blue Iris's web server encoder.
• Fixed issue with rendering the color input field too small in the Streaming Profile editor.

UI3-219

Version 219

• Fixed an issue where the UI failed to load with message "Attempted to access sessionManager before it was initialized" if cookies are disabled.

UI3-218

Version 218

• Added more information to the Camera Properties panel's Information section.
• Added "Jpeg Posting" section to Camera Properties panel where a very limited number of settings are available to be changed via BI's JSON API.
• The Instance ID used for MQTT will be automatically regenerated upon connect if it was broken (empty or missing) in the configuration.
