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

    Following up with a solution: If you leave the "Device(s):" field in AITOOL blank, it will send to all of your Pushover devices. @Chris Dodge What's the best way to donate to the AITOOL project? Git? The button in AITOOL? Doesn't matter? Something else? I really want to kick some $$ to...

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

    Clarification: It only sends it to the device that is first in the list. For example: desktop_main|galaxys23 Only desktop_main gets the pushover alert. galaxys23|desktop_main Only galaxys23 gets the alert.

    Evaluation Watermark out of nowhere, Blue Iris sent me here for old version.

    I have a confusing situation, hoping somebody here can help. Last month the Evaluation banner showed up on one of the BI systems I help manage. This system does NOT pay for updates, and has never paid for updates since the initial year expired in 2021, which is fine for its purposes. Last...

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

    Been using AITOOL with Telegram for awhile and it's been great, but I'm giving Pushover a try to see if I like it better. I have two pushover devices and I'm having trouble getting alerts to go to both. When I put either device in the field, they work. But when I put multiple, separated by pipes...

    Western Digital Purple Drive "Preventative Wear Levelling" thumping sound

    Yes, pretty much. It's definitely not something I'd call a click. More like a thud or quick mini thump, as tigerwillow1 described. I'm also starting to read that PWL clicking only happens at idle. Well my drive is never at idle it's writing 24/7, so that doesn't add up and the jury is still out...

    Western Digital Purple Drive "Preventative Wear Levelling" thumping sound

    I just installed a brand new 18TB WD Purple drive in my Blue Iris PC, and it's somewhat noisy. The noise is a mechanical thump or something between a thump and a click that happens every 3-10 seconds (the drive is writing nonstop 24 hours a day 6 camera feeds direct-to-disk). I believe this...

    Alternative to blue iris

    I haven't heard of a decent competitor that's even in the ballpark as BI. There's many ways to run excellent human detection in Blue Iris. You can get a low priced (under $100 USD) video card and install NVIDIA CUDA and have it handle the AI detection to take load off your CPU. Happy to tell...

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

    Is the Github monthly/one time sponsor setup the best way to support this project or is there a more direct way to support who's actively doing the development at the moment? AITool is awesome and I really want to kick a few bucks into the pot in hopes it sticks around.

    Recurring BSODs on Blue Iris PC, "Memory Management"

    I just got a new screen that may have answered the question. New SSD on overnight shipping, system powered down until I yank the drive and clone it. Thanks everybody.

    Recurring BSODs on Blue Iris PC, "Memory Management"

    WIndows 10. I haven't done any recent updating or work on the computer. It generally sits out of sight out of mind and just runs Blue Iris. It does have a video card which which processes images with DeepStack which is sent to it by AITool version 2.0.1206 I ran windows memory diagnostics as...

    Recurring BSODs on Blue Iris PC, "Memory Management"

    This has happened 3 times now in the last week, I haven't been able to narrow down what action I'm doing that might cause it or if Blue Iris is related or not. The computer will BSOD with a stop code "MEMORY MANAGEMENT", count to 100% and "restart" and then lock up with a black screen and not...

    System recomendation for my parents

    Hi all, I have a BI system that I set up to run with AITool and deepstack with telegram alerts to my phone. It runs great and I like to tinker with it. My parents, who live 900 miles away, want to pay me to install a similar but larger system. Their desires are: All local storage No cloud or...

    Lost almost all my protected clips?

    I checked the folder where all my clips are stored and the only ones outside of the normal history window are the 3 from 2020 that remain protected. None since. Interesting that I would still have some but not all. But unfortunate that I lose something very important.

    Lost almost all my protected clips?

    I periodically protect a clip. I had a couple dozen but I went to find one today, and it was gone. Did a little digging and almost all my protected clips are done. There's 3 remaining from way back in 2020 but all protected clips since then are gone. I usually export the important ones but a few...

    Blue Iris SHIELD disarmed on it's own?

    I just want to chime in and say something similar (or perhaps the same?) happened to me at around 9:15 PM last night. I wasn't even home. All cameras just stopped recording and shield icon went to red, I didn't notice until today 18 hours later. This has never happened in ~2 years of using BI...

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

    I've been noticing high CPU utilization, went into my headless machine running BI and AI Tool is not responding. Functionally it is working as normal, the GUi just isn't usable and is glitchy. I also have a weird black box on the screen. Anybody else seeing this suddenly? I didn't update...

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

    Anybody having problems with certain cameras randomly clearing the AITool image mask? Suddenly my phone is getting blown up by positives on the sidewalk and I check AITool and sure enough the mask on that camera only has been cleared. This has happened in the past.

    Very erratic camera feed for all cameras on new system

    Interestingly enough, I just updated Windows and now I've completely lost the network connection on my 2nd NIC, the computer isn't even recognizing it and of course I've lost all my cams. Not sure if related.

    Very erratic camera feed for all cameras on new system

    I'm skeptical of camera or cam network issues because verything works perfectly when viewing through proper Blue Iris, its only a UI3 problem but here's more info: Mix of Reolink and Amcrest cams, both have the problem. Both are hardwired POE, camserver is an HP Elitedesk 4th gen i5. CPU sits...

    Very erratic camera feed for all cameras on new system

    Currently setting up a new Blue Iris system (I have set up 2 before) but am hitting a problem I've never seen. All camera feeds on UI3 are extremely erratic. The max FPS is supposed to be 15 but it maxes out between 9 and 11 and every few seconds drops to 2 and glitches. Additionally, the...

    Tips Reolink Camera Optimization - substreams

    Also using RLC 520s and having trouble getting substream to work as described here. When I put that URL in the substream field I get "No SIgnal" error. Main stream field just has an "/" and works when I clear the substream field. Any advice? Edit: Been working on this for an hour and solved it...

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

    Problem is fixed, but I don't know how I fixed it. I ditched Docker Deepstack for Windows GPU and I also ditched AI Tool for a little while and spent a couple days configuring Blue Iris to handle my detections. In the end I didn't like how it worked with Blue Iris deepstack integration so I...

    What card can help with deepstack?

    Haha, working overdrive is basically my camservers life. I live on a busy downtown street in a top 25 city in the US with constant pedestrians all hours of the day who's shadows cast across my driveway, with my entire property under a canopy of deciduous trees in a place that gets lots of wind...

    What card can help with deepstack?

    I'm getting almost that with the $110 1030 linked above. I'm sure you can spend a bit more and do better, but this is good enough for me. Certainly way better than on CPU, but I'm running an i5 4590. For awhile I was running the Docker version of deepstack and getting about 350 on medium...

    What card can help with deepstack?

    Update: I bought the card linked. On medium settings I'm getting around 150ms, on high about 250ms. This is much better than before, I am happy. My old 4th gen now sits happily between 10% and 20% CPU almost all the time, might go to 30% on detections. I expect to get at least a couple more...

    What card can help with deepstack?

    I'm currently running 4 cams, Intel 4th Gen in a SFF desktop box (no full sized cards). Windows CPU deepstack pegs my CPU to 100 and take 500-1000 ms for analysis. The Docker version is much better (sub 400ms and no CPU pegging), but I can't integrate that directly with Blue Iris so I'm...

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

    I'm not sure. I come back to this thread every once in awhile but keeping up with the status of the tool is hard for me, I don't have time to read through 100+ pages every time I need to re-acquaint myself with the status/current version. Not bashing, I'm very grateful for the tool. I'd happily...
