And does the BI5 page itself show anything. I think we need some screenshots to help you.

@Matasa: Did you right click the image icon, "open in new tab" as instructed ? It is there, and it does show a failure in UI3 to load the camera list.

@salzy: Since UI3 was created by BP2008, it isn't part of the core BI5 program, so the question is, can you see the camera list in the normal BI5 window ?

If you can, then it is probably in the settings. We have to start somewhere, so we will start with:

1. Have you limited who can see the list in BI5 ? and then used a lower level account in UI3 ?

Having the same issue. Just set BI up and added one camera and made a user account. Everything else is stock.

Does BI5 itself work ? Is this a UI3 issue again ?

IN searching this thread seems to be one of the only instances of the error so i am trying here before creating a new thread.

Having the same issue. Ui3 showing Camera List empty but UI5 working fine.

If i restart UI5, the camera list will work fine in UI3 for a few hours then it will tell me the camera list is empty again.

No changes to the system have been made. Been going on a week or so. Tried reverting back a couple versions of UI5 as well as upgrading to the newest that came out a couple days ago.

Issue persists on 4 different computers in the house so i doubt it's related toa certain client setting.

Very annoying. Any checks recommended from anyone?

Thanks all.
