I'm going to try like heck to make my camera work like yours. I'm starting over, back to factory default, reload firmware, etc. Won't be any new results for a day or two.
With the latest software update, your Device Info screen should look similar to mine as shown below:I read through the release notes to see that I have the latest firmware version Version 3.142.0000000.0.R . . .
Here is the Device Info Intelligent Algorithm from a IPC-T54IR-ZE-S3 camera:I read in a post authored by Andy saying that all of the S3 cameras use the same firmware . . .
I suspect this could be the case. When I had Acupick on, it's detection capability was inferior.I read through the release notes to see that I have the latest firmware version Version 3.142.0000000.0.R, and gleaned a couple of other tidbits:
- With AccuPick on, vehicle and person attributes are determined.
- With AccuPick, animal type is detected.
Just a guess, maybe there's less CPU horsepower available for detection when AccuPick is on?
FYI I am new to all this as this is my first NVR, (only had andy's EmpireTech NVR8CH-8P-2AI 8) with several T54IR-S3 and B54IR Z4E-S3. I updated all hardware to the newest firmware off of Andys site. With that said, I have all the cameras setup pretty much like @StevenFromTexas. My cameras are doing extremely well identifying animals from deer, dogs, cats, and smaller critters through what I think is their metadata(Acupick). What I mean is, (see screenshots below) I can search like you referenced in the Dahua video, through AcuPick and other parameters to locate vehicles, animals, people...etc... From there you can review quick videos of what triggered the IVS (trip or intrusion) and watch said object trigger it. At least that's what I experience. I will say however, I do NOT get push notiifcations of the IVS of animals to my DMSS app. Maybe the app is not built to receive such alerts. People, motor vehicle IVS triggers work just fine on the DMSS app.There were frames with better contrast...

I did not have the contrast setting increased and will bump it up. In the S3 feature video here Latest features in WizMind-S (5442-S3) cams - new video from Dahua I cannot find the "Search" page he's using in the video at 0:59. Either I can't find it or it's not in my firmware. The video highlighted another IVS feature called Long Distance Mode. I found that and will see if it changes anything.
Use Intrusions for animals. It works well and I get notifications to DMSS.I do NOT get push notiifcations of the IVS of animals to my DMSS app. Maybe the app is not built to receive such alerts. People, motor vehicle IVS triggers work just fine on the DMSS app.
ok intersting....I think I have intrusion on some of the camera but I'll have to double check all my settings. I appreciate the input. So do the animal alerts come to the message screen like the MV and human alerts? FYI I have an iPhone.Use Intrusions for animals. It works well and I get notifications to DMSS.

OK.. Thanks
On my new NVR8CH-8P-2AI with latest firmware, when I create a "Smart PLan", AcuPick is enabled by default with IVS and Metadata which you cannot turn off either of those. If you turn off AcuPick, then you do not have the abilty to enable any of the options below it like IVS, at least this is my experience.IVS and MetaData running simultaneous?????
Is that only becasue AcuPick is enabled??
I spoke too soon... When I turned off AcuPick I did not hit "Next" the first time. The second time I hit "Next" and a pop up appeared, (see below) and then the camera restarted and now I am able to choose IVS with AcuPick NOT enabled.On my new NVR8CH-8P-2AI with latest firmware, when I create a "Smart PLan", AcuPick is enabled by default with IVS and Metadata which you cannot turn off either of those.

I agree with you, the new Web 5.0 GUI is piss poor compared to the old Dahua GUI. Seems as though Dahua got a new software team in-house and decided that different is better. I want ALL the camera selections on the left menu bar like it use to be. It takes to many clicks to maneuver around the new GUI. New and different is Not better. Not only that, it is not intuitive what some of the selections do and it is not even identified in their op manual. Hopefully Andy can pass this on the the Dahua people.I got an unwelcome surprise in the UI. When Long Distance Mode is enabled, the object filter selections go away, so I don't have a clue what it's going to do. Also on the UI, I think it's a mistake that the Live screen is automatically selected. I'd rather have it come up showing the main menu. Having to kill the Live screen is a nuisance.
