I can't seem to get --Cancel Alerts to work... At least not the way I'm thinking it's suppose to work...

My interpretation is that it would cancel false alerts and prevent them from showing up in the UI3 Alerts List instead of having to filter them out using the Flagged Only option.

When I use the most recently posted Cancel URL http://127.0.0.1:81/admin?camera=[camera]&flagalert=0&user=USER&pw=PASS all alerts start getting Flagged.
When I use the previously posted URL http://127.0.0.1:81/admin?camera=[camera]&flagalert=0&trigger&user=USER&pw=PASS my camera gets stuck in a triggered state, or maybe it pauses it form making Alerts. ¯\(ツ)/¯ Either way, it keeps the camera highlighted in the UI3 as if its stuck in a triggered state.

Hmmm...so have been noticing several instances where AI/Deepstack isn't recognizing motion or people. At 5:17 it correctly recognized the first person walking on my driveway below. But at 5:18 when the second person arrived, it did not notice anything.

Nor did it trigger when those people left?

Thoughts on how I can make that better? Reduce min object size maybe? Also, I have it so that it triggers only when object size travels 100 pixels, but don't have zone crossing setup.

Check to see if BI dropped the images in the folder. If it did, it's not an issue with motion detection, rather more likely your AITool settings. What's your cool down set to for that camera?

Good catch, yes it did. 2 minutes, which is the other thing I'm wondering. Does the cool down mean it won't look at another image for a full 2 minutes? What do other folks use?

Having said that, looking through the folder, it didn't drop a photo of either of the two guys leaving to go back to their vehicles, so BI presumably didn't trigger.

What's your zone and hot spot lookin like? By the look of your pic there is no reason to have a zone enabled. Unless my cam has a tree right in front of it and I need to block out the tree constantly moving, I dont enable zones w/ AI Tool.

At this point I really wish there was a way to trigger an alert based on the Memo sent over. I really would like to record on person or cars driving by my house, but only have Blue Iris send an alert when a person walks by.

I have telegram setup for just person, but then I have to see that and then run through all the recorded things to find when it was. Would love to just click a blue iris notification to view the video.

That is how I currently have AI setup. It only alerts and sends a push when a person has been detected. Adjust your BI alerts to only include “External”.

The pictures are quite dark. Have you tried switching on IR illumination?
Unfortunately its the ColorVu cameras with LED from Hik, so no IR. Guess I could change exposure, just not sure how great video would look below say 1/250 or whatever it's currently set at.

I have AITool detecting Car and Person so it will record either. If I turned on alerts it would tell BI to alert on Car or Person. I would like to continue recording car and person events but only alerting on Person.

Just FYI- No issues or questions. I have had over 2K alerts since Nov 2 (6 Cameras) Between then and now I have updated to the latest AITOOL-VORLONCD 2-0-109-7617 ( I think it is the latest) I really like that now my Telegram msg's have the box w/ % and what it is and it is also shown on the bottom of the pic, also in the dashboard (AI) where it shows input rates it now has the title over each slice. very nice. Only issue is I am also having the problem where at night the detections are lack luster at best and it does miss obvious things (people) That may be DS? I have noticed a higher % of missed detections and false detections with the newest version but for me it is not that big of a deal, it still seems to catch a high enough % that I am happy- Overall it is still great and thank you smart folks so much for this and all the work you are doing!

I had a issue last night after I cleaned and reformatted my drive that holds [new] [aiiput]. I run BlueIris as a service and for what ever reason BI was starting so fast it was grabbing dockers IP address of the virtual network adapter. Ended up setting BlueIris service to start '''delayed automatic'''. Anyone else have a issue like this and find a different solution?

The project was forked and has since had many options added. Check out the posts from Chris Dodge
Oh wow, amazing! I wish the first post would be updated to reflect that... i would have had no idea unless i browsed through heaps of pages etc...

Is it because there isn't an image for AITool to process to give the false result to send a cancel alert?
AItool doesn't have the image because BI hasn't produced one. What caused the trigger is no longer in the cameras view to cause a BI motion trigger and an image to go to AITool.

I'm running version 2.0.37.7608 of the VorlonCD fork.

How can I change how far back the history view (GUI) displays? Right now it only shows about 8-9 hours back, showing around 1500 detections (relevant and irrelevant combined) or 500 relevant detections.
In AITool.Settings.JSON-fileI can see:

"maxLogFileAgeDays": 14,
"maxLogFileSize": 10485760,
"maxHistoryAgeDays": 14,
"maxGUILogItems": 5000,
