BI6 and Home Assistant - server_all_cameras gone

[BBQFreak]

I have the BI integration on Home assistant and since upgrading to BI6 the entity <servername>_all_cameras is no longer there. Is there any way to get this back? I used to have the all cameras that shows them as a big tile and a different all cameras that alternated through cameras one at a time.

Thanks for any help.

Do you remember what your BI version was before that?

They recently renamed the all cameras group from "Index" to "index" (first letter was capital, now lower case) so the integration might need updated to accommodate.

Sidenote question:
how is the Blue Iris integration into Home Assistant? suitable for use? cool? aweful?
Didn't know 1 existed.
I know of the Dahua individual camera integration, but not the Blue Iris.

I managed to fix it - in the Blue Iris integration configuration I had to re-check boxes to include the all cameras and all cameras cycle as included entities.

It's pretty good - I use it and a mix of MQTT to do automations and monitor various camera groups from different locations in the house.
