    Are bullet cameras more prone to icing up than turret cameras?

    I was wondering if you or one of the others might suggest one sure fire way of preventing icing is to install the cameras in Florida. :) Since installing the Z12E in mid-December it has iced over 3 times. I think I may have had one turret ice over in the last 5 years, and none of them have this...

    Are bullet cameras more prone to icing up than turret cameras?

    I've got about a dozen outdoor cameras, but all but one of them, my IPC-HFW5241E-Z12E, are turrets. The Z12E is the only camera that ices over every time we get the least little bit of freezing fog. I have to blame the bullet format, not the location, as the Z12E is mounted on a post with a...

    UI3 is great! Is there a way to send sound alert when cam triggers?

    In UI3 go to UI Settings (3 dots at upper right), and scroll down to Event-Triggered Sounds. You can then set sounds for Motion Detected, Camera Triggered, and/or Camera Alerting. For me, I only have sound played for Camera Alerting. The others would be going off way more than I want to hear...

    Blue Iris and CodeProject.AI ALPR

    That did give me a Green check mark for a plate, but appears to have a bit of a strange side-effect. I have a camera in a store room off of my office that I added alpr to so I can test CP.AI, including alpr, by walking into the room holding an old license plate. With ,* added to the end of...

    Blue Iris and CodeProject.AI ALPR

    Hey @MikeLud1 even after adding "alpr,Plates" to my custom models the AI analysis still shows red X's. Am I missing something in the settings? And while I have your attention, I'm still running CP.AI V2.0.6, mostly due to how long it has taken to install/upgrade CP.AI over my slow DSL...

    Blue Iris UI3

    Thanks for the quick turnaround. The bug was making it very frustrating trying to zoom in on license plates in UI3 :)

    Blue Iris UI3

    It seems to have something to do with pausing and then digitally zooming in. Now that I've been playing with it all I have to do to see weird behavior is 1) Solo a single camera. This can be live or playback of a clip. 2) pause playback 3) take note of the timestamp. 4) zoom in and look at...

    Blue Iris UI3

    I've see this on an Amazon Fire TV using side loaded Chrome browser, on my Pixel 6A running Android 13 in the native Chrome browser, and on Windows 10 in the Chrome browser. I was just able to reproduce it on Windows 10. Here are the steps I performed: 1) New Incognito window (just to have a...

    Blue Iris UI3

    Hey @bp2008, over the last couple of days, since upgrading BI to 5.6.9.8, I've seen a few times where when I've tried to digitally zoom in during playback of a clip via UI3 the playback window goes black and then switches to video from a different camera. Zooming back out goes back to the...

    Hey @MikeLud1, was the OCR trained with handicap plates? I just captured my first one, and the wheelchair emblem plays hell with the OCR. I think this is the very first DayPlate the ALPR has encountered where at least one of the analyzed images weren't correct. Below is a composite of the 17...

    According to Ken he made some significant changes to 5.6.8.4 to address database corruption issues. By the time I had the opportunity to upgrade BI on Jan 25, 5.6.9.2 was available. After installing it, since it appeared that BI had to rebuild the database from scratch and based on...

    Blue Iris and CodeProject.AI ALPR

    @MikeLud1 I was looking at my log this evening and noticed I have "Plate:" entries from a camera other than my LPR camera. Below is that other camera's AI tab. It should only be using ipcam-general and ipcam-animal. Any idea why it would be recognizing plates?

    CodeProject.AI Version 2.0

    Status update: Uninstall/reinstall took 65 min. ALPR just finished installing and now shows Started. That took another 16 min. One ISP quotes their install price as $75 and 1 Gbps for $90/month or 300 Mbps for $70. The other one either doesn't charge for install, or aren't saying. They...

    CodeProject.AI Version 2.0

    Yeah, but on a 12mb DSL connection it still takes 2.0.6 an hour and a half to download and install. Watching >2GB of pytorch come down at 1.2MB/sec is sort of like watching paint dry. Sure wish there was an offline installer available. In 6 months I shouldn't care as I ought to have 1Gb...

    CodeProject.AI Version 2.0

    @MikeLud1 I finished upgrading CPAI from 1.6.8 to 2.0.6. The upgrade reported success. I tried going to the "Install Modules" tab on the server to install the ALPR module, but when I click on Install the following entries are logged in the log file: 15:06:00: Performing Install on module ALPR...

    Backyard trees and darkness

    If you buy a 5442-ZE to use as a test camera and want to see what one of the fixed focal camera's field of view would be at a particular test location, in the "zoom and focus" of the 5442-ZE's GUI use the following zoom settings: 2.8mm = 25 3.6mm = 220 6mm = 807 Mouse over the slider position...

    External vs ONVIF alerts in Blue Iris from Dahua camera events

    Can anyone explain which Dahua events are classified by BI as ONVIF events and which are classified as External events? When I look at ONVIF events in BI, only one of my cameras has any events, All the rest of my Dahua camera IVS or motion events seem to show up as External events. I have...

    Overnight more db corruption, so for me at least, 5.6.8.2 doesn't fix the corruption issue. Ken asked me to run BI NOT as a service to see whether that has any effect on the problem. I'll post an update if/when additional corruption is logged.

    I'm trying to work through database corruption issues with Ken. For me 5.6.3.7 runs with no issues, but BI has logged frequent db corruption messages on every version that I've tried from 5.6.6.1 - 5.6.8.1. Ken said that he rolled back some of the database changes to their pre 5.6.6.1 state...

    LPR: Blurry Images During Day Time

    @rfj Under Camera>Conditions>Day & Night do you have the Day profile's Mode set to Color and the Night profile's Mode set to B/W? I had some focus issues with my camera after the DahuaSunriseSunset utility switched the camera to Day mode. I discovered that the Day profile had somehow gotten...

    I had deepstack stop working after a BI upgrade. It was what motivated me switch to CPAI. Take a look at this thread... 100% DeepStack timeouts after BI update (including reverting to earlier versions) If I recall correctly it ought to give you enough to go on to get DS working again if you...

    At this point, if I were the developers I would wait until after Christmas to release it. The last thing I would think they would want to do is have to put out any fires with the new release over the Christmas holiday.

    One thing I've wondered about is if BI can draw a box around the area in which it sees motion, why can't it send just what is in that box to the AI for analysis? I have a camera that looks down our driveway to a cul-de-sac. BI often triggers motion on vehicles in the cul de sac, but when CPAI...

    Any good solutions for push notifications outside of BI android app?

    I really like Pushover, and its custom sounds in particular. Just from the sound I can tell which of my 2 BI servers the alert is coming from, and whether it is a person, someone in the room where my gun safe is, a bear, or any other of the selected objects. My only issue is that I have the...

    replace damaged female connector on a camera?

    I replaced a damaged connector on a Hikvision camera once. I did use a keystone connector, and even though it was going into a junction box, just to be safe I wrapped it all up with Coax Seal. I've had no issues with it in the last couple of years since the repair.
