Here is the latest release of the VorlonCD mod. (@sbarmen @norbertt try this for your issues - make sure and backup your AITOOLS folder first)

github.com

Releases · VorlonCD/bi-aidetection

Alarm system for Blue Iris based on Artificial Intelligence. - VorlonCD/bi-aidetection
github.com github.com

  • Dynamic Mask settings now has an advanced option screen for dealing with distant objects better. You should not need as many static masks for small detected objects. Other updates and enhancements for masking. (Thanks @classObject !)
  • The database is now an SQLite database. The cameras folder is no longer used at all
  • New history list with icons, better/faster filtering, sorting columns, etc.
  • ALL failed images due to cooldown or retry failure will be logged in the history list and you can filter by them. (There should be far fewer missed now)
  • New status bar with stats and progress bar for long operation (like when you first start and it does a clean of the database)
  • New Errors dialog so you dont have to look through 1000 log lines to quickly see all the errors.
  • Fewer errors, better stability, UI more responsive
  • Better support for running as a service. If you open the GUI it will now update the history list, but still will NOT show log entries from the service. And you have to close the service before making settings changes.
  • Cooldown now works as expected
  • Telegram now works as expected
  • High DPI support (Requires .net framework 4.7 which most computers should have installed already)
  • MQTT retain setting - Open aitool.settings.json in notepad and search for "action_mqtt_retain_message" and set to true for each camera you need. (@satoshi )
  • No start in error when running on startup (it just changes to the right folder) (@WildDoktor )
  • Fixed 'Warning: It took a long time to add a history item' - this was due to reading and writing to the db far too often (@IPDaily )
Before unzipping the file, make sure to Right-click > Properties > UNBLOCK!

Might be my PC video resolution but I'm seeing a couple of UI issues. Obviously not show stoppers but I just wanted to post them. Love the improvements!!

1) Overview tab doesn't center to AI logo and the line runs all the way to the right edge of the window no matter how I size it.
2) Camera tab coverall text, check box and button horizontal scaling issues. I have to stretch it full width the see everything.

@Chris Dodge Seeing some errors with this release.

This should be expected if your deepstack server is failing to respond for one reason or another. This version just is a little better at telling you about it.
I cant tell you why it is failing but likely due to bug on deepstack side.

Thanks, I'm running Deepstack on the same PC. I have no idea if I'm running the latest version of Windows 10 Deepstack.

Thank you for this release.

One issue I am having is that the window is completely sized wrong, I cannot even see the tabs at the top. This happens when I am connected to my PC via team viewer and the TV it is connected to is off. If the TV is on the resolution changes and it is drawn properly. Turn off the tv and then the windows go wierd.

I think this is related to High DPI mode.

Have the same issue when using vnc viewer on unraid, but if I use RDP it works fine.

Wow thanks for the fast turnaround! Got the new version installed last night and no issues with the database write speed errors since.

@105437 @juched @Senor Pibb - For the odd display issues, make a shortcut to AITOOLS somewhere, right-click > properties > compatibility tab > change high dpi settings, and see if they help for the next time you start it. Or maybe edit aitools.exe.config and set the value for DpiAwareness to "false" rather than "PerMonitorV2". I have a 4k monitor set at 175% dpi and a 1080p monitor set at 100% and UI elements seem to be fine for both.

Thanks @Chris Dodge. I tried both and neither changed my display.

Also, how do I get images back in my History tab? Somehow I must have done something to prevent them from showing. Thanks

Running windows 10 pro, 1.67.8.33855 and get two errors. One Warning: it took a long time to add a history item @ 3327ms (count=398, min=4ms,max=3327ms,avg=15ms), stacdepth=10
The other is when on a camera and trying to draw a mask, I got an error when I pressed OK. I had the option to continue or quit. But now... it does not. so I guess nothing to worry about unless it shows up again.

@105437 - hmm. So are you running AITOOLS through a remote viewer of any sort? If so can you test directly on the screen? What is your windows display DPI set to? right-click desktop > display settings > scaling. How is the monitor connected? If your monitor has been disconnected or had a resolution change during the current windows session, try a reboot.

The missing images is because the vertical splitter bar that allows you to resize between the list and the image is missing/offscreen.

All window and splitter positions are remembered in the registry. Close the app, then go to Start menu > Run > Regedit > browse to this and delete: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\AITool
