Percent sign
You may place a # character immediately following the % to eliminate leading zeros in many of
the formatting codes. For example, %#H will show 9 at 9am instead of 09.
Time Zone Correction
For time zone correction in a text object overlay, add the special sequence {+n} to the
beginning of the string, where n is a number 1-23, and the sign is either + or -. For example, a
text overlay of {+3}%c will display the time 3 hours ahead of local time.

• The automatic Clip Archiving (See 10.) feature has changed behavior. The dates used for
calculation are now the file-modified dates (were previously the file-created dates).

• Support for the Axis 2100 network camera
• ActiveX control has been signed with a new code-signing certificate expiring in October,

• When Blue Iris is running as a service, you may now run the Blue Iris application a
second time. This second instance of Blue Iris will act as a client, allowing you to control
the service; you can edit settings, restart cameras, and view stats and messages. Live
video will be updated in the camera windows approximately once every 2 seconds.
• When you enable the "run as a service" option on the Options/Startup (See 11.) page,
you may quit Blue Iris and re-run it to start the service without having to re-boot. When
you disable the option, the service is stopped, and the client then will automatically exit.

point. Right-click the viewer window and click Trim to remove video before the start
