End of Path Getting Cut Off

I'm sure this is an easy fix, but I can't figure it out..

This is what BlueIris is sending to MQTT.

This is how mcsMQTT is handling it.

What is your context? Is it an image going to a sign? Is is a Control/Status UI of Text going to a HS DeviceString? It is part of a JSON payload?

BlueIris, on an Alert, sends the path of the camera picture as a string via MQTT. I will then send a Pushover notification using this path for the camera pic

I did a test where the string in post #1 was sent and I obtained the full payload in both mcsMQTT and HS4





I then changed the test message to be ..8.jpg and evaluated with HS3 plugin and also got the full contents in HS4



My suggestion is to look at the message that is being sent by BlueIris. It may not be what you are expecting. There could be multiple messages being sent and you are only seeing the last one. If you have history enabled then you can look at history page for this topic to see what is being observed by mcsMQTT. The last message payload will also be shown on the Association tab.

Ah, you're correct, not sure why I didn't take a look at what BI was sending.. smh.. Thank you, I will contact BlueIris.
