Like many people here I run an I7 that looks after BI for me, and it is mostly under stressed despite doing all of the motion detection and AI. I've heard a few people mention they use in camera AI to trigger BI via ONVIF, and it got me thinking, how low can I go?

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004555417256.html Andy now has the 2.8mm V2 with the two x 1/1.8" sensors on his Aliexpress store. Hey @EMPIRETECANDY is there any time frame on when we are going to see the 3.6mm and 6mm Versions? I've already got the spot picked out for the 6mm when I can...

Quick question re object detection. I activated it and it appears to have killed motion detection for objects that stay within a single zone without crossing zones. Can anyone confirm or deny if BI reads that setting as object travels X pixels on substream AND crosses zones. Is there a way to...

The AI doesn't have a clue what this big hopping bunny is Nope... Getting colder

So I was looking at options for going full colour. Lots of lights with 5442 turrets? Or do I go dual sensor? One of the things that was discouraging me from going Dual sensor were issues around depth of field at night. F1.0 with near focus to 2m does not exactly result in a large depth of...

I know this hasn't made the news very much in the US but the case relates to a Police Officer being charged with Murder after he shot an armed offender who had stabbed him. The offender was Aboriginal and all the signs point to him being charged for that reason. Seven News did a story on it...

Thought I would share how I made a reflective CCTV focus target to help me set up the focus on my LPR cameras. You will need the following items A printer. I used a laser but an inkjet will probably work too. Some paper, either A4 or US Letter Some reflective tape...

Ever Tried to put a square peg into a round hole? That's the dilemma I'm facing currently with replacing some older Dahua Domes, several HDBW4431R-ZS which just aren't up to par any more. The IPC-HDBW5442R-S or IPC-HDBW5442R-ASE will replace these domes as their dimensions and pattern are...

If you have a glitch and a fix please post them here and I will compile them into a single post for ease of search. LPR Downloader Issue: The downloader is not downloading plates. Possible Cause: Time offset is not correct. Currently if you live in a timezone that is UTC + X hours there is...

G'day Forum, I've got some scotsman in me, so my favourite price of things is free. Today I've discovered Sighthound ALPR and have it working on my System. It keeps nominating Finland and Poland as the source of my very Australian Plates, and it reads accurately so far, but the demo didn't...

There's no point having a CCTV system if the crooks can just turn off your power. If you don't have a UPS I suggest getting one. I have a Cyberpower OLS1500E, an online UPS that both provides battery backup and cleans the power to the Blue Iris Server. It came with power panel personal, which...

G'day from Downunder, For those of you who haven't seen @GentlePumpkin 's awesome AI Tool for Blue Iris, you should duck over to his thread. I got to wondering how I could use the tool to review video that had been recorded previously, even on other systems. I came up with a method that...

I originally couldn't work out why I suddenly had no web interface but I still had connectivity on the app after upgrading from BI4 to BI5 If you are having a similar issue go into Blue Iris>Settings>Web Server and make sure your root directory is pointing at C:\Program Files\Blue Iris 5\www...

G'Day from Downunder, So I purchased myself 4 x IPC-HDBW5442R-S from a Chinese seller on Ebay https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Dahua-4MP-AI-Starlight-IP-Dome-Camera-POE-IR-WDR140dB-TF-IPC-HDBW5442R-S-2-8mm/184045076367 Everything looked the goods. I checked that it was a genuine international...

Okay I have something odd going on. I've been toying around with processing video in realtime using OpenaALPR but I have something weird happening. Whenever I pull the http substream from the camera using the "USER:PASSWORD@IP/cgi-bin/video.cgi?channel=1&subtype=2" everything works for a little...

As above I am hoping that someone with a smart POE switch and one of these cameras can give me their actual night time power consumption. Trying to spec a POE NVR for 7 domes and one Z12 bullet, and don't want to run out of power at night.

Is it just me or has @nayr, one of this forums most beneficial and prolific posters, dropped off the face of the earth? I haven't seen him throw in his two bob worth for a while.

OK - Safety First This hack involves working with batteries and electrical equipment. Batteries are full of acid and can produce currents of hundreds of amps which can lead to burns, fires, explosions, and generally unpleasant outcomes. Electrical equipment can kill you. Plus this most...

So I'm in the middle of a major camera and network infrastructure upgrade. The old mix of 5Mp Dahua and 3mp Hikvision cameras has been consigned to the scrap heap. For my new cameras I've decided to go with the IPC-HDBW4431R-ZS. One of the main reasons I chose this camera was the ability to...

Now I know that Blue Iris Supports the Sealevel 120E and #8112 but has anyone used any of the sealevel offerings with more than four inputs successfully?

Hello Everyone, I'm in the market for a couple of new low light 2MP IR Domes to replace some Dahua 5MP box cameras (IPC-HF-3500) that have poor low light performance (0.08lux @ F1.2 in B&W). These are matched to some good (read expensive) fujinon lenses that will do F1.2 throughout the range...

Ok so I am successfully calling presets/PTZ commands on my YC-HD785R-20X using Blue Iris, however I would like to go a bit further and access the CGI protocols in the camera so I can change settings in the camera via http commands. In a perfect world I would like to set the auto tracking scene...
