Fix for the broken MP4 email alert and a return to the less-CPU-intensive H.264 encoder
methods for webcasting and recording.
3.01 - February 20, 2012
There may been many new camera definitions and bug fixes.
The H.264 and MPEG4 encode/decode engines have been updated
The audio-trigger function (See 7.2) now has the option of whether or not to apply a 1-
second average to the sound intensity when considering it as a trigger source. With this
option enabled, only longer/sustained noises will result in a trigger. With this option
disabled, short noises such as a single hand-clap may be capable of triggering the
camera.
3.00 - December 25, 2011
After 5 years of continuous 2.x development and updates, the time has come to take
Blue Iris to the next level. Many big and exciting changes have been put into this single
release, and there are many more planned for the coming years. Thank you to everyone
who has supported this project, and I hope you are able to see how your feedback and
suggestions have shaped and guided Blue Iris over the years. Happy Holidays, Merry
Christmas, enjoy!
This is considered a major upgrade; the installer will create a new Program Files folder,
new desktop icon, etc. Once you are comfortable with the transition you may uninstall
2.x.
Extensive UI element updates; the size of the top and bottom control areas has been
made smaller as well.
Use of the latest Microsoft MSVCRT (Visual C Runtime) and MFC 10.0 components.
A new Alerts image list alongside the previous New and Stored clips lists. Each image
represents a trigger event and may be used to "jump into" a movie clip if your movie
clips contain multiple events. These images also will be used by the mobile client apps
for alert notification. You may disable these images on a per-camera basis from the
Record tab. New options on the Clips and Archiving page control the length of time
these images are retained.
The viewer buttons on either side of the Step buttons now move to the previous and
next event within a BVR clip. If the beginning or end of the file is reached, the next clip
on the clip list is automatically opened. When viewing the Alerts list, this will also work
for other file types.
New icons to select the contents of the clip list, including filters by camera and/or time.
A new timeline view above the clip list. A week at a time is presented, and you may
zoom-in on any particular day. Drag the pointer across the bar graph to scroll the clip
list in sync with the timeline.
