    THIS is why I wanted an auto-tracking PTZ.

    I don't know how I missed that one. Was that entirely automatic or did you coax it into staying on him? You could tell that he figured out the camera was there just after putting up the mask and hoodie, and as he's walking down the street, he's contemplating what to do... proceed knowing you...

    Blue Iris UI3

    I'm helping out my brother with his UI3. He's getting this: Oddly it's only happening when he tries to connect via the local IP address. When he logs in via the DDNS wan name for the server, it comes up just fine. It's specific to this win10 pc. Other pcs and devices on his lan have no...

    Finally popped bobcat that was snatching my chickens...

    I debated whether to post this, but figured it highlights success, so why not. This bobcat has been poaching my chickens quite successfully for over year. I've tried leg snap traps, sitting in a blind high up in a tree, but he would never show, or was too smart for the traps. Until...

    5.7.2 - March 22, 2023 - Identifying and resolving storage errors and pitfalls

    just add -0.0.0.0 to your webserver ip access list. It's under global settings, web server, advanced. A single "banned" IP fixes the issue. Ken said the next release will fix this automatically.

    5.7.2 - March 22, 2023 - Identifying and resolving storage errors and pitfalls

    Ok, for once, I figured something out before Ken. My brother's nearly identical system was able to run 2.3 w/o any remote access issues. So I had him send me a screen shot of his advanced webserver tab. They were identical to mine, except he actually had a few banned IPs (-xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx)...

    5.7.2 - March 22, 2023 - Identifying and resolving storage errors and pitfalls

    Looks like I've stymied Ken... He says he has to think about a solution to the problem I'm seeing. Has something to do with the limit access by ip box. I have only admin whitelisted IPs (^LAN_IP) for my Roku TVs and HASSIO system. Nothing black listed or auto banned. He seems to think that a...

    5.7.2 - March 22, 2023 - Identifying and resolving storage errors and pitfalls

    I appreciate you trying this. I'm pretty certain it's a gremlin in the latest release. It works on .2.2 but not .2.3 and is repeatable with reinstalls/downgrades. I've already sent an email to Ken. I'm pretty simple using unique port forward so no VPN or other go-betweens that could be the...

    5.7.2 - March 22, 2023 - Identifying and resolving storage errors and pitfalls

    Does it work using UI3 web page in browser? I don't really use the app for anything other than push notifications. I've had past instances where the mobile app was able to connect and UI3 couldn't - or vice versa, so I presume they use different pathways.

    5.7.2 - March 22, 2023 - Identifying and resolving storage errors and pitfalls

    FWIW, with .2.3 I get "access to IP ADDRESS is denied". Made sure it wasn't blocking IP in webserver. No issues. I backed down to .2.2 and full functionality is restored. Something got borked with .2.3 for webserver access. ETA: Reinstalled .2.3 and sure enough it goes back to showing...

    5.7.2 - March 22, 2023 - Identifying and resolving storage errors and pitfalls

    Noticing the "Large DB may impact performance" warning tonight, I found this thread. I ran the compact/repair function and it did resolve the red error, but after closing and reopening the console (my BI is running as a service), the error returned: Interestingly, the "index" time...

    Poor IR contrast in new Tennessee license plates

    AddToBIDB failed 665, and alert image not created...

    I get that. I was getting these randomly on the stable versions as well. Only today did it STB with no recording at all. I was hoping the 665 error would point to a specific problem. I've just fired off an email to Ken.

    AddToBIDB failed 665, and alert image not created...

    I am getting these errors all afternoon. I just now had time to investigate what's going on. The entire time, NOTHING has been recording - whether clip or alerts. More than anything, I'd like to know how to keep this from happening. I'm running UI3 version 229, Blue Iris version: 5.7.0.3...

    Hit and run...

    Wow, what's the backstory on this one? The guy standing next to the car while it was hopping the bushes (purple shirt) seemed to get a pretty good view of the driver/tag. Was it a stolen vehicle? And what happened with the video glitching. Seems like the best part is missing.

    AI is only recognizing about half of my vehicles....

    I will give that a go, thanks. As for the angle, it's never changed, and the detection was nearly 100% prior to the update of the CodeProjectAI to 206. In fact, none of the default settings were change with respect to AI or substream configs. My CPU runs almost non-stop at 100% now too any...

    AI is only recognizing about half of my vehicles....

    I am struggling to get my AI to work properly after upgrading the CodeProject to 206. These are my settings for the camera: Sometimes it catches the same vehicle coming, but not leaving, and other times, it catches them leaving, but not coming. For example, this video shows the school bus...

    The last 20 feet of it's trip are the toughest...

    I think a lot of it has to do with your location. I'm in a very rural area, and all delivery drivers are super polite and considerate. They even put the boxes inside plastic bags if it's threatening to rain. Even though they're under an 8' porch roof.

    What happened to the entrance reducer on my bee hive?

    Look up Shawn Woods (Mousetrap Monday) on YT. The guy has reviewed hundreds (if not thousands) of traps and products to fight rodents. He reviews/tests them quite objectively with cameras and timers. It is surprising to see how few things actually work.

    Need help setting up specific trigger/alert

    So I would like a given camera to record with any motion detected by the camera. And I'd like to set up a "trip wire" where if it is crossed, it sends an alert. Using the motion detection, I have set up zone A to trigger with any movement anywhere in the image. I set zone B as a line, and...

    Interesting. Do you use a separate script to pull the tags out of the log and create a database of tags?

    Windows 10... I think it's all working smoothly now, thanks for the hand-holding. I'm curious how the ALPR can be implemented in some kind of log/report. Ideally, I'd like to create a record of tags, but can't quite seem connect the dots.

    yes, see post above yours... we cross posted. Looks like whatever it downloaded isn't valid, and it's not going to get another copy (keeps trying to used the cached copy) If I understood the file structure/name I'd go in and manually delete it to force a clean download. ETA: I found the...

    It eventually shows "install" again, but as soon as I click it, it goes back to unknown. Looking at the log it says: 19:54:09: Latest version available is 2.0.6-Beta 19:54:30: Performing Install on module ALPR 19:54:30: Preparing to install module 'ALPR' 19:54:30: Downloading module 'ALPR'...

    Ok, so next issue... It's showing 2.0.6-beta now, and after a restart of the system, I see all the options in your screenshot. However, after clicking "install" for the ALPR module, I get this:

    That upgrade is pretty invasive. command window has been busy for the last few minutes... Try Edge. It worked first try.

    5.6.9 - January 24, 2023

    That was it... Brave, despite having all shields down, stripped the file name each time. Edge worked (I don't have chrome on BI server machine).

    5.6.9 - January 24, 2023

    Thanks, but no dice. Here's what I get after clicking on that link: For some reason it's stripping out the file name. Let me try with Chrome instead of brave.

    Ah, thank you. I must not have been upgraded with the latest update... I'm still showing 1.6.7-Beta, even though BI is 5.6.9.3. Did you have to update the CodeProject AI separately? It's showing me that 2.0.6-beta is avabile, but the download feature doesn't work.. That's with a hard...
