    Help training a model, batch and epochs #s?

    Very cool, thank you for the advice! Any idea why the CPU usage would be so much higher with my own model (with I'm assuming few images) than yours?

    Help training a model, batch and epochs #s?

    Wow, I just put the model in service this morning and I'm already seeing some pretty impressive results! Of course Deer are defintely over represented in the model lol. (Again, "best.pt" is just the default name of the model.) The only model to identify a deer. The only model to correctly...

    Help training a model, batch and epochs #s?

    I'm looking train my own custom model, but I'm struggling through it lol. Following the ultralytics tutorial (Train Custom Data), I have about 1000 images labeled and exported with roboflow. After some trial and error I successfully ran the train.py script that seems to work and produces a...

    Using Spotter Cameras to direct a PTZ where to look in an NVR or Blue Iris and setting a spotter cam as a priority in Blue Iris

    In case anyone in future is looking to do this, it was actually simpler than I was making it. Rather than a "Web request or MQTT," I used a "Do Command > Trigger" from the Actions > On alert... menu using an Extern/ONVIF trigger in the Action setting. The PTZ camera now triggers only after CPAI...

    Using Spotter Cameras to direct a PTZ where to look in an NVR or Blue Iris and setting a spotter cam as a priority in Blue Iris

    I'm not sure if I should hijack this thread or create a new one, but it might be helpful to other's here anyway... I'm looking to cut down on the number of cancelled alerts from the PTZ camera if for whatever reason there's nothing of interest found on my spotter cameras when they trigger. I...

    CodeProject.AI Version 2.0

    Interesting, thank you. I was just going off the CPAI module description, that described the .NET module for CPU users and the 6.2 module for GPU users, but I'll try switching it up.

    CodeProject.AI Version 2.0

    I think the first screenshot shows it enabled, and the 3rd screenshot "info" also shows it enabled with more details (cuda, etc.) In BI > AI, it says Use GPU.

    CodeProject.AI Version 2.0

    I was really looking more for suggestions on Real Time Images and the time Analyze each times, but I found pretty good information here: https://blueirissoftware.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3853 But I'm now I'm wondering if CPAI is using the GPU properly...I am up to 16 cameras with a RTX 3090...

    CodeProject.AI Version 2.0

    I just switched to the GPU version of CPAI. Getting some wild results lots of "nothingness" dected as dog's and cats with 60-70%+ confidence, but also some good results. I realize the AI/the models are not perfect but hopefully get better with time. Right now, I've got it set it: 50%...

    The entire 4th place winner numbers got glitched Andy said. I would think your 26 should be re-added during today's redrawing...?

    You're right that 33 and 43 won already, 2nd place prizes: And it looks like 26 and 34 "won" here: 2022 EmpireTech Thanksgiving Day and Black Friday Sales but maybe that was the glitchy 4th place?

    4.0 AI New models IPC-HX5XXX-Volt_MultiLang_PN_Stream3_V2.800.0000000.11.R.191230

    Thank you but I think that's a actually a different firmware. My link got screwed up, but according to Andy's post here (IPC-HX4XXX-Volt_MultiLang_PN_Stream3_V2.800.0000000.11.R.191230) (and just confirmed in the HWID file in the fw you sent), the HX4XXX version is for the fixed focal length...

    4.0 AI New models IPC-HX5XXX-Volt_MultiLang_PN_Stream3_V2.800.0000000.11.R.191230

    Any chance someone has a copy of this firmware they could share? I would like to test animal detection stuff with it lol. The HX4XXX version is readily available, but this version is no where to be found. Thanks

    Detecting wildlife with Dahua cameras

    On a side note, using the Dahua IPC EASY unbricking / recovery over TFTP method, I attempted flashing the DH_IPC-HX5XXX-Volt_MultiLang_NP_Stream3_V2.800.0000000.10.R.191118 FW you mention in the OP so many times this weekend. While the T5442T-ZE (turret) is not officially supported the rest of...

    Detecting wildlife with Dahua cameras

    Yeah, this is detecting animals on technically, I guess, a 5442 varifocal (IPC-HFW5442E-Z4E) but the FW doesn't work on the 5442 varifocal turret... It looks like it works on 5442 varifocal bullet, dome, the 5442-Z4E (bullet) and the (2MP) 5231-Z12E (bullet) It's this firmware: AI 4.0 latest...

    Detecting wildlife with Dahua cameras

    Just to clarify this Z4E is 54XX series? (in case there are a couple different models, but it's a IPC-HFW5442E-Z4E. The Z12E is a 52XX). But yeah, still impressively sensitive.

    Detecting wildlife with Dahua cameras

    I've got some good news, was successful detecting a fox using IVS triggers on the WizMind Z4E. Just got this camera up and running and flashed with this FW this evening and within minutes got an alert! (Albeit DS cancelled it for obvious reasons.) As I mentioned in my last post, this firmware...

    Review: Dahua SD5A425XA-HNR 4MP 25x Starlight IR PTZ

    I'm finally installing this camera tomorrow I bought last month. Silly question, it says it supports PoE+, but does it need anything special? I was surprised to see the large 24v power brick it comes with lol. Also, the OP review mentions PTZ cameras needing to be installed higher than regular...

    Detecting wildlife with Dahua cameras

    At the risk of being mock for my (probably) not optimal shutter speed and gain settings causing very, very minor ghosting (i still see it though lol), the bobcat was back last night!

    Detecting wildlife with Dahua cameras

    Very cool, thank you. (Side note: I'm looking forward to watching Christmas Vacation a couple times next week/next month lol) I guess the thing that kind of initially turned me off of it browsing the website is because it's an NVR? I don't have any experience with NVR's but the UI reminds me of...

    Detecting wildlife with Dahua cameras

    Interesting, thanks I'll definitely look into this. I have Hue stuff but I don't think my parents do. I think I can set up a Hue emulator of some sort though that might work and keep the costs down. Of course the other issue will be powering them remotely lol. I actually was wondering if...

    Detecting wildlife with Dahua cameras

    Yeah, I was just coming to post this too...Mine definitely didn't catch the clearly visible deer walking through the snow covered yard. The 5442TM-AS did...Sorry. Now I'm looking to really guinea pig a camera and modify/force that .8 or .10 firmware onto a camera it wasn't designed for. YOLO lol
