I am but I don't see any way to set it up in the camera GUI either. I'll keep poking around.

It’s on IVS , apparently not SMD.

Interesting. I can't figure out how to do IVS through the Camera UI. I've always done it via NVR.

That’s bad.
You should do ALL settings on the camera GUI
go to AI, choose IVS - Follow prompts
IVS is much better than SMD. Dont try running both at the same time

But I choose the AI by Camera setting, I just do it through the NVR interface.

On the newer NVR's which you have apparently, yes you can choose AI by Recorder (and lose 1/2 of your incoming bandwidth allocation) or by Camera on the NVR interface, but you still need to actually setup the IVS rules on the camera GUI if you choose by Camera

I'm trying to figure out how to get that AI menu in my camera UI. perhaps it's because I have SMD enabled too? I had SMD enabled to catch things like animals, but now I won't need it because IVS can do it.

Click the house icon (home) top left of your camera gui you showed in pic about 5 posts up
Then choose AI
Then select IVS
Then the next screen is the IVS rule setup screen

Close all those tabs across the top once you’re done with one. It’s not windows

I feel slightly better knowing I'm not the only one who wasted a lot of time over this poor UI design. AI should be on the Settings menu like most of the other home page settings are. It's worse for anybody who used the older camera UI, where IVS is under the Event menu, which to me is a whole lot more logical than where it is now.

The “Home” icon is your friend

No kidding. I searched and searched but had no idea that icon meant so much.

I'm loving the animal detection...I caught a skunk and a deer last night. I have human detection via tripwire send me notifications in the middle of the night so I know if a human is creeping around my house, but I have animal detection on intrusion so I don't get the alerts to my phone but I can easily find them in the recording later.

Getting the hang of it
@EMPIRETECANDY What's the latest firmware for IPC-T5442T-ZE? I have a camera with version "V2.840.0000000.25.R, Build Date: 2023-04-25" that does not have "Smart IR", and another one with "V2.840.15OG00D.0.R, Build Date: 2022-08-18" that does have "Smart IR". Is there a newer build that has Smart IR?
He has all of the latest firmware on his website. As there are several models of the 5442, make sure you select the right one:
