    [tool] [tutorial] Free AI Person Detection for Blue Iris

    Adding this just in case anyone runs into the same issues, I've been chasing my tail for a few weeks now and JUST solved it. My setup is 11 cams of various makes and models, but I've had a terrible time with detection working for my Annke I51DM (C500), it all tests right but doesn't reliably...

    [tool] [tutorial] Free AI Person Detection for Blue Iris

    Ensure that recording is set to "on trigger" and alerts are set to "on trigger, external". You should be able to paste your trigger URL into a browser window and press enter, you should get a confirmation message in the browser if it's working. Feel free to paste screenshots of your...

    [tool] [tutorial] Free AI Person Detection for Blue Iris

    I'm not familiar enough to answer with confidence however my system is working at this moment however I'm struggling hard on telegram alerts. The tutorial DOES clone and DOES USE DUAL STREAMS. I think that probably adding the second url to the HD cam is probably an attempt to save cpu but...

    [tool] [tutorial] Free AI Person Detection for Blue Iris

    You did not clone the cameras, you used the integrated dual cam recording feature. Cloning cameras would be if you had DOUBLE INSTANCES of each camera in BI, each at a different resolution. This guide is very very good, if a tiny smidge outdated: danecreekphotography/node-deepstackai-trigger

    [tool] [tutorial] Free AI Person Detection for Blue Iris

    I was afraid of that. Here are some screenshots: In a camera, there are settings on TRIGGER for"Capture an Alert List Image" and on the Record tab for "Include all JPEG's" If these boxes are CHECKED, I get an alert list image any time anything triggers the BI motion detect settings, which...

    [tool] [tutorial] Free AI Person Detection for Blue Iris

    Thanks Village Guy. That's what I thought the answer would be. Can you answer one more question for me: If I turn on "capture alert image" and "include jpegs", it fills up the alerts window with hundreds-to-thousands of stills because that's happening before AITool processes them, and the phone...

    [tool] [tutorial] Free AI Person Detection for Blue Iris

    I think I want to switch to constant record for a few of my cameras because I've had it historically and it's been useful. Is there any major reason to NOT do constant record? Is there a significant improvement in using substream record + main stream alert record? I don't have substream urls for...

    [tool] [tutorial] Free AI Person Detection for Blue Iris

    This is a great tip...but I already had it off. Now I'm working awesomely, EXCEPT that my alert videos are only showing up via the webUI, none are showing up in the app. Weird.

    [tool] [tutorial] Free AI Person Detection for Blue Iris

    Thanks for the input. For my setup, disabling both "Capture Alert List Image" on the trigger tab and unchecking "Include JPEG's on All Clips and Timeline" together keeps the stills from the alerts list/window but the trigger still sends the jpeg to the processing folder. What I am now curious...

    I have this working, however now I've got a few thousand spam alerts that are just jpgs. If I turn OFF "Capture an Alert List Image", it should still take the jpeg snapshot trigger pic, just not add it to the alerts, right?

    Sudden decrease in recording quality (green frames in particular), lots of troubleshooting info inside

    Thanks. I really appreciate all your help. I can run all 6 cams at 1440/15 with multiple viewing connections at once and neither cpu or ram goes above 40%, I'd say I'm good and it's fast as blazes. Now if only I could get a BI instance for my headless debian rig...lol.

    Sudden decrease in recording quality (green frames in particular), lots of troubleshooting info inside

    Ok, so yesterday I rolled back the driver to last years version and everything was fixed. Upped bitrate and quality went super. Then, like a dumbass, I decided to go ahead and finally uninstall BI4 because I'd never uninstalled it. I told it to keep settings and license info but it didn't...

    Sudden decrease in recording quality (green frames in particular), lots of troubleshooting info inside

    OOoooooooooooooooooh. Sorry for the dumb question. In our environment we've been battling nvidia acceleration issues for one app with no graphics settings on like 2500 machines and that's just the way my head was working. Headless has never been an issue but I will look more into it! I've got a...

    Sudden decrease in recording quality (green frames in particular), lots of troubleshooting info inside

    I think you mean in the graphics card options, not BIOS, is that correct? Disabling acceleration I mean? This box runs headless but I can throw on a monitor and edit that later this evening. I'll also look at rebuilding as much as I don't want to...it also runs a few critical vm's but I can work...
