Weird that you are still having problems especially if you are using direct-to-disc. These cams are solid. Take the cam and connect to POE switch using a very short cable temporarily. See if that fixes your problem. If not, try another POE switch. These suggestions are to rule out issue...

@chain In your 1st screenshot, select Direct-to-disc as mentioned previously by @wittaj

IMO, your CP.AI response times may impede your ability to grab plate # before the plate is out of view---assuming you have your cam shutter configured appropriately for LPR. (There are a number of good threads on cam configs for LPR.) 1 data point, ALPR is working with an Nvidia 1650 card on...

@Tygunn If the goal is to do ALPR, then 1st, turn off default object detection by including in the custom models config. You have it enabled above, which adds unnecessary CP.AI load, and it's detecting "car" which has no part in ALPR plate extraction. Your CP.AI response times of 700-1200ms...

Agree, I am curious where this is legal. And how does it do against multiple intruders, especially when they're approaching from different directions. Related, products like this have been around and available on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07551TXL6 Or this fog machine...

@oh6hfx I agree with @wittaj , cam AI these days are intended for people/vehicle detection. As you have seen for yourself, birds will not consistently trigger IVS rules. You probably need to go with plain motion on cam or BI5 and then send to CP.AI for bird detection. Take some snapshots...

@bluetentacle Your cam AI config in first screenshot looks ok. My guess is that CP.AI is not working. Use CP.AI Explorer UI to manually test LPR with an uploaded image as a sanity check. Please also share the BI5 AI screen---I assume you have "ALPR for plates" enabled. I am on BI v5.8.9.4...

@roymickton Are you sending MQTT for "On Alert", and then another one for "On Reset"? Just in case you did not know, the "On Reset" MQTT msg is not required if you configured your Home Assistant binary sensors like this: # MQTT mqtt: binary_sensor: - name: "Person at Front Door"...

Agree, use UI3. If TV has touch support, then touch would provide an intuitive way to select single/group view, select alert playback, PTZ control, etc... I have various laptop/tablets strategically placed around the house using UI3 and touch for family to access.

If you installed Blue Iris 5, UI3 is included. UI3 is not intended to be a separate install. After installing Blue Iris 5, while on your home network, point your PC browser to http://<blueiris_pc_ip_address>:<port>/ui3.htm ***port is 81 unless you configured it differently

Not sure if related, also upgraded to v5.8.9.x and seeing this issue... Blue Iris UI3

This thread doesn't sound like my problem but may be related due to v5.8.9.x: Alerts play unrelated clips

Upgraded to UI3 version 268, Blue Iris version: 5.8.9.3. I now see this warning: Blue Iris did not provide an offset in milliseconds for this alert, so it may being at the wrong position for 1 cam, for every alert. I tested alert playback for 16 other cams and do not see this warning. I...

@MarioBoo I've been using CP.AI for over a year. It's stable as far as I can see. Started with v2.0.x, now on v2.6.2. 10 cams using CP.AI for person/vehicle/animal detection. 1 cam for ALPR. Installed using Windows installer on Win10 machine. Most object detection < 100ms due to Nvidia...

Whoa, I guess dual mics means wind noise in stereo! If anyone has recommendations on windscreens for this cam, let me know. Audio on this cam is a bit non-usable due to audio quality.
