    Algertc ALPR database and VPNs

    I would go back to having the ALPR database on the same machine. Verify you have correctly set the API key in the settings. From another PC on the LAN, confirm you can reach the login screen. You want to use the internal IP of the BI/DB machine (leave the VPN out of the equation). Then ensure...

    Full ALPR Database System for Blue Iris!

    The purpose of this thread is to talk about the ALPR Database. In order to send data and use the application, you will need ALREADY WORKING ALPR within Blue Iris. If you haven't done that much, you should look in other threads on choosing cameras and tuning their settings...

    Full ALPR Database System for Blue Iris!

    Blue Iris has a limit of 64 cameras. But the ALPR database doesn't technically care about the camera that read the plate. The database just stores images, plate details, the name of the camera, etc. As long as you have enough disk space you could technically be sending plate reads from hundreds...

    Full ALPR Database System for Blue Iris!

    The &JSON that is sent when the ALPR module has found a plate is different than when other objects are found. If you want to use the same camera for both plates and objects, you should do exactly what you did and separate the ALPR processing to its own instance so that it isn't trying to treat...

    Where you have "undefined", I have the plate name. A quick way to check the contents of the &JSON is to send an email alert when a plate is detected that contains &JSON in the body of the email.

    So you've confirmed the storage directory exists, I assume. If not manually create it.

    Camera is always hitting the AI server

    In addition, if you want static object detection, be sure you type only the model you are using for that camera or else you'll see every installed custom model running.

    Need help with CPAI and delivery.pt

    Which module are you using (YOLOv5 6.2, YOLOv5 .NET, YOLOv8)? I've had the best recognition using the YOLOv8 delivery model. Also, if anyone wants to DM me with any images with false positives or missed detections, I can add them to the next training session. I need images that are clean...

    What does this mean? Are there people connecting to my Blue Iris?

    Anyone want to claim this set-up? Blue Iris Site 1 = http://alts.execmgtsecurity.com:81 Blue Iris Site 2 = http://alts.execmgtsecurity.com:82 CodeProject.AI Dashboard = http://alts.execmgtsecurity.com:83 Home Assistant = http://alts.execmgtsecurity.com:84 ALPR Database =...

    The app isn't the thing that would do it. You want to set up an incoming VPN so you have an encrypted tunnel into your home network using OpenVPN, Tailscale, Wireguard, ZeroTier, etc. You can then use that for accessing Blue Iris, the ALPR DB, etc. Do NOT do port forwarding. I suggest reading...

    Thanks for keeping the PLATE method available for those using other APIs like PlateRecognizer. And the MEMO method is working for my delivery detections.

    How to capture multiple plate reads in quick succession?

    Did you add the zones and get it so it triggers when the vehicles are in the middle of the frame? With 12 frames, you've only got 1.2 seconds of footage to find an image with a plate. Plus your processing time is about 5000ms (5 seconds) so it's going queue them up and take about a minute to...
