I am currently running Blue Iris successfully. I have 22 4K Lorex Cams. The PC is handling it all with no issues. It stays around 34% CPU usage. I have a couple of different questions.

When viewing the different cams in Blue Iris, can I move them around? The order they are in appear to be fixed.

Anyone have a suggestion for pushing out the screen to multiple monitors? Each monitor would be the same. I was thinking of HDMI out to a splitter than to multiple monitors. I am using Windows 10 and now there are remote viewing, but only one tv at a time.

Thanks

Yes you can simply drag the cameras around... Right click and ensure drag lock is not selected. Yes and HDMI splitter would be the way to go.
 
Thank you, figured out moving the cameras around.

Confirming there is no wireless solution to send the image to multiple monitors? Thanks
 
I use a 1x8 HDMI splitter and have been for some time. Was a pain but I ran HDMI to every room in the house so we can see the cameras everywhere.

You’re welcome! They have a 1x4 version as well. I ran a cable from the 1x8 to my living room TV, then used the 1x4 to split from there into the garage (other side of the wall). Wasn’t sure if the double split signal would work but it did. Audio carries well to all screens too! Wife thinks I’m nuts for having them on all the screens but then she loves it if she’s home alone and hears a noise outside. Lol!

I’m lucky enough that a wireless keyboard/mouse combo reaches most of my house too! So I can tweak BI settings from any room. Using UI3 is still my preferred way to review video though.
