Can someone tell me what the two green squares icon means in AI status? I see is matches a car, but doesn't return a match as far as BI is concerned. These pop up occasionally, but there nothing in the help file that describes what some of those icons mean. Example below.

Likely the same as found in BI's "Help", under ""cameras" => "camera window UI" and means "motion is detected".

Thanks for the reply. I understand what the symbol means when it's in the camera window UI. What I am asking about is what the symbol means when it's shown in the AI status window. The issue is that as you look through the analysis' it shows it detected a car, but the return back to BI was along the lines of "nothing found".

Sometimes we get those where the analysis clearly shows it detected and found the object, but it comes back along the lines of nothing found. Especially at night when the static object option is being used.

Just a guess. Was this alert triggered using the Blue Iris motion sensor with object detection checked?

Yes, and... What I am trying to accomplish is that I want to trigger on Zone A as below - basically not wanting to trigger on the motion on the main road to the left. But... I need the AI to be able to see the are in Zone B for the analysis. If only Zone A get looked at in the analysis, you get the higher up part blacked out, so it missed taller things like trucks because it can't figure out what it's looking at. Normally, I only have the area from the edge of the road in - our driveway - and don't care about passing traffic. When Zone A is set like that, it gets alot more blacked out and ignores anything that is above the driveway. Have it triggering on everything passing for testing. And, yeah.... I'm probably doing something wrong with the zones.

Regarding the meaning of this icon in the DAT file, Ken just replied as follows...

This means no motion. Motion is expected at the area of a detected object before it will be considered for triggering.​

Ironic that this icon's meaning is the EXCACT OPPOSITE of that in the 'Camera Window UI' key in the Help PDF (post #2 above).

yeah, maybe this would make more sense: BI-no-motion.jpg

I just stumbled across this page in the HELP PDF.

It looks like the answer was always there. The icons were first described (text only, no images) in 5.4.8. Icon images were added ~5.8.8.8
