    Very strange issue and need help please

    What video encoding you are using on the camera stream? H.265 or H.264? I could imagine that H.265 is causing these artefacts in movements.

    Blue Iris + Dahua(EmpireTech) IVS Setup Questions

    Thank you for this hint. I will check once I find time for playing around. Maybe I have a delay in the stream received by BI. Just guessing. But basically no Issue I have for real live situation. I want to detect persons and this so far is running fine. The issue I got with animals that are...

    Blue Iris + Dahua(EmpireTech) IVS Setup Questions

    OK. Thank you. I am still evaluating different possibilities to combine functions of the cam, Blueiris and AI. But if this is the best I can expect, I am already at the end.

    Blue Iris + Dahua(EmpireTech) IVS Setup Questions

    OK. My wording could lead to misunderstanding. Fast I would consider to trigger by motion detection with Blueiris, do AI object detection in Blueiris and cancel or alert depending on the result of the object detection. Trigger and event are close together and influenced by moten detection in...

    Blue Iris + Dahua(EmpireTech) IVS Setup Questions

    I like the concept of using the IVS of the camera to detect and trigger via onvif and Blueiris for recording. The downside I have discovered is a time delay between event and trigger. For just recording you can increase the pre-trigger recording time. But if you want to use AI in Blueiris to do...

    Continuously recording and video clips with different retention time

    Yes, I believe this is clear to me. There are three options in Blue Iris: Database only, JPEG or MP4/BVR file. These pictures or clips will be stored in the Alert folder and their retention will follow the setting of this folder. I believe this setting "Export to MP4/BVR" + "replace" will lead...

    Continuously recording and video clips with different retention time

    Thank you for answer. I did not listed this option as it does not provide an automatic retention I was looking for. Additionally, in combination with continuously recording, it keeps the complete recorded "block" and not just the sequence that has been triggered. This function of retention is...

    Continuously recording and video clips with different retention time

    Hello, What is the best way to achieve the following use case? Continuously recording with short retention time (about 3 weeks) Video clips of (confirmed) alerts with long retention time (about 3 month) I thought this could be a common use case. But it looks like this only is possible to...

    Dahua / EmpireTech AI IVS rule as ONIVF trigger in Blue Iris

    Thank your for the detailed explanation. A part of this I already found somewhere before. But this line does the trick I was looking for: a separate IVS for person, animal and vehicle to be able to distinguish in Blue Iris.

    Dahua / EmpireTech AI IVS rule as ONIVF trigger in Blue Iris

    How can I fully utilize the ONIVF trigger information from my EmpireTech camera in Blue Iris? So far I am quite fine with the IVS AI rules in my EmpireTech IPC-T54IR-ZE-S3. Blue Iris can receive the IVS rule trigger by ONIVF. The camera itself can do object detection for person, vehicle and...

    Best wall-mounted touch screen viewer of feed?

    This is what I am using as a display for my home automatization since now 10 years. I am more an Android fan. But back in these days I decided for an used iPpad because it looked more "stylish" when mounted on the wall and I could find more good looking wall mounts for iPads. Noways you can find...

    Run Blue Iris Tools as admin on startup automatically without disabling UAC

    BI has a build-in function to configure it to run as Windows service. This will give you the same result to start-up BI but less complicate.

    Distinguishing between motion events and alerts

    Yes, this would be good. I like the view in Frigate where you have a separate timeline for triggert alarms and motion. I am new to this topic and I am playing around with the cameras, Frigate and Blue Iris. The motion view helps me to better see what the alram triggers have missed and gives me...

    sub-stream resolution

    With substream 1 @ 640x480 I got the bluring issue as described above. With substream 2 @1280x720 the issue is gone. I had to change the substream as substream 1 does not provide this resolution. Yes, only one substream is active. All other are deactivated.

    [Dahua] Recommendations needed

    I would say it depends on the speed of your NAS serving the SMB shares and the speed of your network connection. With two cameras I have no issue writing directly to a SMB share served by TrueNAS. But this I am doing only because my BI is virtualized and there is no local disk. In a dedicated...

    sub-stream resolution

    Hello, what resolution for the sub-stream of the cameras you are using? I got "blurring issues" via remote desktop when I used a too small resolution. Why I am asking? I am new to surveillance and first started testing Frigate. All was fine. As next I started testing Blue Iris to come to a...

    CodeProject.AI Version 2.9.0

    Maybe this is the reason for my issue. My TPU always is getting detected but it is falling back to CPU after a couple of seconds. And my second issue is that YOLOv5 6.2 doe not detect the GPU but YOLOv8 does. I am using an Nvidia T400 under Windows.

    BlueIris on Proxmox VM - cpu up and down?

    Unfortunately I my case it does. I am running several Windows and Linux VM under Proxmox 8.3.1, all set to host to get the best performance. All is running fine. Unfortunately when I spinned up a new Windows VM with the setting "host" for testing of Blue Iris it crashed with a blue screen each...

    Lock zoom of Dahua IPC

    This idea is good. I got it by myself. :) But as you can see in post #3, I cannot identify the proper rights for "zoom".

    Blue Iris Windows 11 or Windows Server?

    Interesting news. For testing purpose I was running CodeProjects AI separatly under Proxmox in a Linux LXC with Docker in it. My plan for the target platform was running both Blue Iris and CodeProjects AI on the same windows machine to make use of the GPU by both programs. Do you use a separate...

    Lock zoom of Dahua IPC

    Thank you. In case of Blue Iris was the cause, it now will be solved. Im am not sure if maybe any other program or app was causing it. Therefore I was asking for a way to restrict on camera level.

    Use Mapped Drive as V:\ instead of \\ServerName\Share?

    Maybe I do not get you right. But why not just set-up the network path to the NAS in Blue Iris as it is without mapping a drive? Today it is V: and tomorrow it is the path on your NAS. Maybe temporarily any other network path while you data moving action is ongoing.

    Lock zoom of Dahua IPC

    Any idea what right it could be? The maual has listed PTZ. But I do not have. Or let me ask in a different way. What right Blue Iris needs?

    Lock zoom of Dahua IPC

    Hello, I am still playing around with my two EmpireTech IPC-T54IR-ZE-S3 (Dahua IPC-HDW5442T-ZE), Frigate, Blue Iris, some apps and a SMB share to find the best set-up for me. A couple times I have noticed that the zoom of the camera was changed. I have not touched any PTZ control by intention...

    IPC-HDW5442T-ZE - improve night settings for detection

    Are you referring to this setting? I have SMD switched of and set-up IVS on the camera. Currently I am focusing on Frigate for detection and recording, use the camera detection for comparison only and play around with Blue Iris. Not yet decided in what direction I will finally go.

    IPC-HDW5442T-ZE - improve night settings for detection

    I do not know what a animal filter should be. I am no other settings than "standard" and the once mentioned above. I can see the difference. To me it looks like contrast is my issue.

    IPC-HDW5442T-ZE - improve night settings for detection

    I added to the original post. Thank you. This I will test. Thank you. I anyhow was planning to zoom in a little bit more and tilt it a little bit more down to get the IR of the second cam on top right out of the sight. (I am waiting for a little bit more warm weather to do this.)

    IPC-HDW5442T-ZE - improve night settings for detection

    Hello, I am just playing around with my IPC-HDW5442T-ZE in combination with Frigate and the demo version of Blue Iris to explore the possibilities and to find the best set-up for me. So far, I get good detection results during day time. Both Frigate and IVS of the camera even detects birds...

    Frigate - Nvidia GPU 0%

    Hello thank you for help. At least everything is running and so I did not searched for the reason. The Nvidia status shows that the GPU is doing something. Two ffmpeg processes running and I have two cameras. If I find time and do not know what to do, I will pullout the GPU and check what will...

    Frigate - Nvidia GPU 0%

    I am still trying about to understand Frigate and test if it is the system I want to use. What I do not understand why my GPU load is so low. OK, there is not so much to do. The high resolution stream only is getting recorded and the low resolution stream already is coming by fps 5. But to me...
