BI 6.0.4.8 Install Failing
Thanks, wittaj. I upgraded from 5 to 6 with no issues. In my case I run BI as an app rather than as a service. Also, I used Grok to get the required steps, basically to first download the settings as a precaution. -
BI 6.0.4.8 Install Failing
Hi wittag. What is the process to disable BI5? -
New ALPR - Do not want any monthly fee.
But the clips themselves can be exported if needed. -
New ALPR - Do not want any monthly fee.
The Protect app comes with any of their hardware which supports the app, such as their UNVR machines, or some of their routers such as the UDM Pro. They also offer free mobile apps in the app stores. For LPR databases, their Protect app will itemize all plates collected for easy viewing, but as... -
New ALPR - Do not want any monthly fee.
The UniFi Protect has the "AI LPR" camera for $399 which doesn't require a subscription. You would need a UniFi NVR running their free Protect software, and they offer the "UNVR Instant" for $199. Many of their G6 AI cameras include plate recognition, but the AI LPR is dedicated to that purpose... -
Unifi AI Port- Works great!
In the UniFi Protect's Alarm Manager there's a 'Vehicle of Interest' alarm which when triggered can cause an email, app alert, a sound, etc. I do see when editing that category that 'Webhook' is there as an option. -
Unifi AI Port- Works great!
The Protect AI Port has its own rules, or basically OCR on license plates if the License Plate option is checked in the individual camera record options within Protect In my own situation, Rekor Scout does a much better job of collecting plates than the AI Port does on the Z12 camera. I have... -
Dahua NVR -vs- Old PC and BlueIris?
Hi BigRed. In my own case, I have the Z12E on BlueIris and also have it configured on Rekor Scout, albeit on the same PC. Wondering if they could likewise use their Z12E on an NVR and still use Rekor Scout on a PC.- DLONG2

Dahua NVR -vs- Old PC and BlueIris?
Not being familiar with the Dahua NVRs, as I am using an old HP PC with Blue Iris, what are the pros and cons of using the Dahua NVR? With BlueIris and Rekor Scout I can collect license plates, and assume the I could still use Rekor Scout on a PC with the same cameras connected to an NVR. Any...- DLONG2

Unifi AI Port- Works great!
I have that same camera associated with the AI Port, and it doesn't collect as many successful plates as the Rekur Scout OpenALPR does, maybe half of them. Although I haven't been checking on the improvements of the Protect software, this was my initial result. So, while it continues to collect... -
Show Clips Stopped Showing
Not sure why, but yesterday morning all my 7 cameras stopped marking clips for the 'Show' function. When I browse the folders, I do see video files being created and stored, but BI will not list them as clips or alerts. I clicked on the 'Repair database' button, and even rebooted BI, but the... -
Email Server Stopped Working
I am unable to figure out why the email alerts stopped working recently. The web hosting service which I have always been using for SMTP claims there is nothing wrong on their end. Whenever the camera's alert gets triggered from HomeSeer, the log shows 'Error with connecting server . . .' just... -
Unifi AI Port- Works great!
That was a surprise to me when I got the AI Port, that it need not even be connected to a camera, it just needed to be on the network. I have 4 ONVIF cameras as well as the G4 on the Protect. The use of plate collection, though, is weak even during the day. My Z12 is also on Blue Iris, and I... -
Unifi AI Port- Works great!
I have this same albeit older camera (IPC-HFW5241E-Z12E) streamed to Blue Iris and now also to Protest, and the AI Port is using it to tag plates and people. -
Unifi AI Port- Works great!
Thanks. I had to log in with the admin pass in order to enable that LPR option.
