    Full ALPR Database System for Blue Iris!

    Most of the time I have no issue, but every so often it shows BI retrying 5 times, then not updating the record count. The image size is only 1920 x 1080 and that size is working usually. The BI settings were for a 10 second timeout and 5 retries. I notice that the calls from BI seem to be...

    Yes, I did. But apparently the migrations.sql failed to run and add the 'ignore' flag to Known Plates. I did a full refresh and ran the update again and this time it took. Thanks, as usual, @MikeLud1

    Yes, I have about 20 known plates in the database which I confirmed directly. I can also see the details throughout the other screens. But the Known Plates tab doesn't bring anything up, after the update.

    Known Plates tab says "No known plates found" even though they are in the table.

    Full ALPR Database System for Blue Iris!

    Unfortunately NSSM didn't work. It would not start as a service. I've set it to start at login and I'll just have to monitor if the machine shuts down abnormally so I can manually log it in. I'm curious if others are trying to run it on their Blue Iris (Windows) machine, or is everyone doing it...

    That's a good idea. I used that for another app that wasn't a service.

    I'll check again but I think that only works after one logs in rather than running without someone logging in. Anyone else running it on the same Windows machine as BI?

    Full ALPR Database System for Blue Iris!

    Unfortunately that only changes the password that is sent to the database, not what the database expects. That's how I was able to get it working by sending the default 'password' but I'd rather change it to something that's not the default.

    Thanks @MikeLud1, that did the trick! It also made me realize why nothing was going into the database previously because I only changed the default database password in one place and it looks like it needs to be changed in two places during setup. Do you know of an easy way to get into the...

    And yet one more request for help. I've got a list of plates and images that I would like to bring into the ALPR database. I'm trying to write a python program to call the API, but I'm apparently not clear on the format. Here's what I tried and got a 500 error. import urllib.parse import...

    I've just got around to installing this on the Blue Iris machine. I installed Docker Desktop for Windows as recommended, did all the steps and it was up and running. Overnight, the box rebooted for some reason, but the Docker Desktop (and hence the ALPR Database container) did not restart. My...

    Have you gone through all the steps above to diagnose an issue? I don't see any reason the latest version wouldn't run on Windows 11. But to answer your question, I don't believe @TAustin is actively developing EdgeBridge; it's been chugging along for several years without needing updates on my...

    Custom Models for CPAI

    The YOLOv5 .NET module is pretty good on a CPU. Then you'll have access to the ipcam-combined model and its objects (person, bicycle, car, motorcycle, bus, truck, bird, cat, dog, horse, sheep, cow, bear, deer, rabbit, raccoon, fox, skunk, squirrel, pig)

    Have you started one of the Yolo modules?

    Custom Models for CPAI

    It should already be installed with CPAI. First on the AI settings tab, turn on custom models. (You also might as well turn off the default object models). For each camera, under the AI settings, type "ipcam-combined" as the custom model. Then type the items you want to detect under "To...

    Smartthings automation

    SmartThings could natively support the ability for devices on the LAN (e.g. cameras or Blue Iris) to talk back and forth. But for the sake of security, they try to prevent Edge drivers having that ability. The Edge Bridge is a community member's workaround for that and I think it works pretty...

    That is still high. Check the CPU optimization guide: https://ipcamtalk.com/wiki/optimizing-blue-iris-s-cpu-usage/

    Have you gone through the diagnostic steps I listed in the various posts above? It could be a lot of things from a Windows update, a SmartThings hub update, a network reboot, etc.

    Codeproject AI and false positives

    For one, I no longer use the default object models (turn off on the AI settings page). I don't need to be detecting fire hydrants, parking meters, giraffes, frisbees, etc. Instead I choose one of the custom models (usually ipcam-combined, or ipcam-general) and configure the camera for those...

    Code Project AI general configuration and alerts

    First, what are your global AI settings? I'm assuming, from your camera settings, you're using the default object model and not custom models? Also, it's odd that you've got just person and bicycle, but are trying to mark as vehicle for objects you're not even trying to detect. Anyway, the...

    Help with deepstacks.

    Another few things: It looks like you have default object detection turned off. You'd might want to switch to 1 instance of Deepstack until you are sure it is working. Finally check the DS logs and consider turning on 'Save Deepstack Analysis' so you can check whether it is finding the clips you...

    Help with deepstacks.

    Doesn't Deepstack normally run on port 5000? Is there a reason you are overriding that to use 82? Sorry, it's been quite awhile since I ran DS having switched to CPAI quite awhile ago.

    First LPR Layout. Feedback?

    I would consider still bringing the cameras lower, maybe 9'-12'? Also, do you have pictures from the respective candidate locations, day and night?

    Blue Iris CodeProject AI Custom Model Setting

    You definitely want to pick a specific custom model for each camera. Technically you can run multiple models but for performance reasons, I find it best to pick a single model. First, read through the list of possible custom models and choose the one model you want to use on that camera...

    CPAI Custom Models help

    First you need to enable custom models on the global AI settings tab. While you are there, turn off the default object detection. Now go to the camera settings and fill in the settings for the custom model you want to use. There are two possible custom models already loaded with CPAI that you...

    Blue iris cpu usage when camera are triggered?

    I would guess that your AI settings aren't tuned correctly. You probably have the default object model and all the custom models firing concurrently on each camera. You generally only want one model per camera. Plus it's also possible that you don't have CodeProject.AI configured with a module...
