Mike: is Yolov8 ready for prime time.?.. can it be installed in a win10 system using just the cpu without a graphics card (now using Yolov5.net )? If so, does it offer advantages in speed or accuracy? And if yes to all that, are you re-doing the ipcam-combined model for it? Thanks...Attached is a new YOLOv8 license-plate model. I did away with the DayPlate and NightPlate labels, now the new label is just Plate. To use the model just save the model in the below folder and then restart Blue Iris service.
I am interested in this also, I get strange alerts now, my gate is a tennis racket it reads the signs on the gate as Tags LOL
Should the naming of these models identify with which YOLOversion since the old models don't work with YOLOv8?Attached is a new YOLOv8 license-plate model.

@David L If you name the models as suggested, won't you need to go into every camera AI screen and update custom model config when you switch from v8 version back to v5, and vice versa? I'm not sure this is a good thing. Increases the chances I will have typos or misconfigure, given the #of cameras where I do AIShould the naming of these models identify with which YOLOversion since the old models don't work with YOLOv8?
ex.
ipcam-general-yolov8.pt
license-plate-yolov8.pt
I gotcha, just thinking of these files out there, how do you you know which is for what YOLO version unless the filenames are different.@David L If you name the models as suggested, won't you need to go into every camera AI screen and update custom model config when you switch from v8 version back to v5, and vice versa?

It looks like there is an issue with 2.5.5, DO NOT UPDATE YET.Anyone try the 2.5.5 update? I tired and couldn't get the status page (localhost:32168) to load, reverting to 2.5.4 now.
Too late on the above note for me. I updated it this morning, and now the server service wont start, even after a few tries and restarts. I will try reverting to the 2.5.1 version that i have downloaded next.It looks like there is an issue with 2.5.5, DO NOT UPDATE YET.
Yep, I couldn't get 2.5.5 to load either after install. Switched back to 2.5.4. I like the mesh feature as I can update my secondary system and make sure its stable before updating the CPAI that's running on my BI box.It looks like there is an issue with 2.5.5, DO NOT UPDATE YET.
Could someone please link to or attach a copy of 2.5.1?

YOLOv8 does not have all the custom models yet so if you are using the default models or ipcam-general then give it a try. For your GPU the best Object Detection module would be Object Detection (YOLOv5 .NET). On my 3060 I am get the below speeds.Mike: re asking, with the added question of using Yolov8 in a win 11 box with a RTX 3070 GPU (as a mesh).
Thanks Mike... I'm using Yolov5.net on the cpu only BI machine, and was using Yolov5 6.2 for the Win11 3070gpu pc in the mesh, but I'll try moving that one back to Yolov5.net. I look for deer (to dissuade them!), so I don't think IPcam-general works for that, so I will avoid Yolov8 until you do the custom models like ipcam-combined for v8.

Just run the ipcam-general one and tell it to only IDENTIFY person. All that model has is person and vehicle. It is a fast model.What's the best way to run codeproject AI so it only has "people" models... that is all I care about, i dont care about cars, animals, etc. I feel that if I can eliminate those models which arent required it should speed things up quite a bit.
