    System recomendation for my parents

    Hi all, I have a BI system that I set up to run with AITool and deepstack with telegram alerts to my phone. It runs great and I like to tinker with it. My parents, who live 900 miles away, want to pay me to install a similar but larger system. Their desires are: All local storage No cloud or...

    Lost almost all my protected clips?

    I checked the folder where all my clips are stored and the only ones outside of the normal history window are the 3 from 2020 that remain protected. None since. Interesting that I would still have some but not all. But unfortunate that I lose something very important.

    Lost almost all my protected clips?

    I periodically protect a clip. I had a couple dozen but I went to find one today, and it was gone. Did a little digging and almost all my protected clips are done. There's 3 remaining from way back in 2020 but all protected clips since then are gone. I usually export the important ones but a few...

    Blue Iris SHIELD disarmed on it's own?

    I just want to chime in and say something similar (or perhaps the same?) happened to me at around 9:15 PM last night. I wasn't even home. All cameras just stopped recording and shield icon went to red, I didn't notice until today 18 hours later. This has never happened in ~2 years of using BI...

    [tool] [tutorial] Free AI Person Detection for Blue Iris

    I've been noticing high CPU utilization, went into my headless machine running BI and AI Tool is not responding. Functionally it is working as normal, the GUi just isn't usable and is glitchy. I also have a weird black box on the screen. Anybody else seeing this suddenly? I didn't update...

    [tool] [tutorial] Free AI Person Detection for Blue Iris

    Anybody having problems with certain cameras randomly clearing the AITool image mask? Suddenly my phone is getting blown up by positives on the sidewalk and I check AITool and sure enough the mask on that camera only has been cleared. This has happened in the past.

    Very erratic camera feed for all cameras on new system

    Interestingly enough, I just updated Windows and now I've completely lost the network connection on my 2nd NIC, the computer isn't even recognizing it and of course I've lost all my cams. Not sure if related.

    Very erratic camera feed for all cameras on new system

    I'm skeptical of camera or cam network issues because verything works perfectly when viewing through proper Blue Iris, its only a UI3 problem but here's more info: Mix of Reolink and Amcrest cams, both have the problem. Both are hardwired POE, camserver is an HP Elitedesk 4th gen i5. CPU sits...

    Very erratic camera feed for all cameras on new system

    Currently setting up a new Blue Iris system (I have set up 2 before) but am hitting a problem I've never seen. All camera feeds on UI3 are extremely erratic. The max FPS is supposed to be 15 but it maxes out between 9 and 11 and every few seconds drops to 2 and glitches. Additionally, the...

    Tips Reolink Camera Optimization - substreams

    Also using RLC 520s and having trouble getting substream to work as described here. When I put that URL in the substream field I get "No SIgnal" error. Main stream field just has an "/" and works when I clear the substream field. Any advice? Edit: Been working on this for an hour and solved it...

    [tool] [tutorial] Free AI Person Detection for Blue Iris

    Problem is fixed, but I don't know how I fixed it. I ditched Docker Deepstack for Windows GPU and I also ditched AI Tool for a little while and spent a couple days configuring Blue Iris to handle my detections. In the end I didn't like how it worked with Blue Iris deepstack integration so I...

    What card can help with deepstack?

    Haha, working overdrive is basically my camservers life. I live on a busy downtown street in a top 25 city in the US with constant pedestrians all hours of the day who's shadows cast across my driveway, with my entire property under a canopy of deciduous trees in a place that gets lots of wind...

    What card can help with deepstack?

    I'm getting almost that with the $110 1030 linked above. I'm sure you can spend a bit more and do better, but this is good enough for me. Certainly way better than on CPU, but I'm running an i5 4590. For awhile I was running the Docker version of deepstack and getting about 350 on medium...

    What card can help with deepstack?

    Update: I bought the card linked. On medium settings I'm getting around 150ms, on high about 250ms. This is much better than before, I am happy. My old 4th gen now sits happily between 10% and 20% CPU almost all the time, might go to 30% on detections. I expect to get at least a couple more...

    What card can help with deepstack?

    I'm currently running 4 cams, Intel 4th Gen in a SFF desktop box (no full sized cards). Windows CPU deepstack pegs my CPU to 100 and take 500-1000 ms for analysis. The Docker version is much better (sub 400ms and no CPU pegging), but I can't integrate that directly with Blue Iris so I'm...

    [tool] [tutorial] Free AI Person Detection for Blue Iris

    I'm not sure. I come back to this thread every once in awhile but keeping up with the status of the tool is hard for me, I don't have time to read through 100+ pages every time I need to re-acquaint myself with the status/current version. Not bashing, I'm very grateful for the tool. I'd happily...

    [tool] [tutorial] Free AI Person Detection for Blue Iris

    5.5.1.6, the latest. This has been happening for awhile, at least the last couple months. I usually always go to the latest update within a couple days of release.

    [tool] [tutorial] Free AI Person Detection for Blue Iris

    Update: What's actually happening is the "flagged" event that shows up in Blue Iris is one flagged event older than the event that triggered it. I realize that's hard to follow. AI hits on a human at 7 PM. I immediately get a correct telegram alert with the correct picture, but the event...

    [tool] [tutorial] Free AI Person Detection for Blue Iris

    I'm having a problem where flagged events don't show up in Blue Iris for 8-12 hours. AI Tool registers the hit and I get my Telegram alert instantly, but Blue Iris isn't registering the flagged event until hours later sometimes even the next day. Anybody experiences this?

    [tool] [tutorial] Free AI Person Detection for Blue Iris

    Has anybody found that AITool will randomly wipe the detection mask for one camera for seemingly no reason? I can't figure out what's triggering it but it's happened 2 or 3 times in recent months, the mask for one of my cams will just be gone and I'll suddenly start getting telegram alerts from...

    Can't get cameras to sync correctly with proper time all the time

    FIXED: I'm dumb. I had been avoiding the DST setting in the camera because they require entering the dates manually. DST dates change every year so these would have to be re-set each year in every camera. That's only slightly more convenient than going in twice a year to change the time itself...

    Can't get cameras to sync correctly with proper time all the time

    Indeed, setting the camera to a time zone 1 hour off from mine displays the correct time. I'm worried that once DST ends I'll be off an hour and have to change it back, hopefully not!

    Can't get cameras to sync correctly with proper time all the time

    I want my camera feeds coming into Blue Iris to always have the correct time and self adjust for DST. Right now, I have to log in to each camera from my camserver 2x per year and click "PC Sync" to fix the time on each. There is an option to sync to NTP server with the default being...

    [tool] [tutorial] Free AI Person Detection for Blue Iris

    I just experienced something interesting with AI Tool 2.0.703.7716. I received a telegram alert and the red box around the person who caused the positive hit is entirely within a masked area. 100%, no corner of the box is in an unmasked area and nothing else was detected, only 1 thing in the...

    [tool] [tutorial] Free AI Person Detection for Blue Iris

    Just out of curiosity, has anybody heard any rumors about "AITool" type functionality eventually getting built directly into Blue Iris? I know BI has a service of its own, but surely the writing is on the wall regarding what the customers want (and Sentry isn't it) so I think the motivation is...

    [tool] [tutorial] Free AI Person Detection for Blue Iris

    Is this true for the Docker version? Wouldn't it just create another container that would be visible in the GUI and easily stopped?
