    Need help installing a GPU

    What are some tips for measuring Deepstack response time? This is for my current CPU-only to compare with my hopefully-forthcoming-GPU-accelerated system. The only way I know how to see execution times is in the BI log and filter for Deepstack. Is there a better source? Or even a more...

    DeepStack Case Study: Performance from CPU to GPU version

    A question about cuDNN version (for a P400). All the docs on the Deepstack site, and references here, point to v10.1. But the Nvidia site gives v11.5 as the most recent available. For a new install, is it recommended to stay back on v10.1 or keep up with the latest? Thank you.

    Hell Yeah! Direct Deepstack Integration - 5.4.0 - March 31, 2021

    I'm awaiting a P400 in the mail next week. Can these steps be performed in advance of the hardware being installed (to get a headstart on the ordeal)?

    Need help installing a GPU

    Hello @wittaj As a n3wb, I appreciate all your comments. Would you elaborate on the above? I've been trying to catch up on GPU's and everything I've read indicates that the number of CUDA cores is key. I understand that both the beards are at the low-end, but the GT1030 has 50% more CUDA cores...

    DeepStack Case Study: Performance from CPU to GPU version

    I have an i5-6500 (early Intel QuickSync) running 8 cameras through BI+Deepstack. DS processing is 500ms to 2s, so I think I can benefit from even an affordable GPU boost. Would a sixth gen I5 see improvement from an added P400? After reading this thread, I'm confused about whether my current...

    How to estimate fixed focal from a vari-focal ?

    Pretty much what I did on my own. The calculator is very helpful - I wonder how I missed seeing that. Thanks!

    How to estimate fixed focal from a vari-focal ?

    I have an IPC-T3241T-ZAS (from Andy). Following the advice I've seen from several on this forum, I went with a vari-focal that I can use to tune my needed focal length and then use that as a basis for purchasing fixed focal length cameras. I am guessing at how to do that and would like...

    Should I have a graphics card for DeepStack or is onboard graphics good enough?

    Thanks for your progress reports, toastie. My project for the holidays is to see what I can do to lower AI recognition times. I'm following your odyssey with interest. I've had some concerns about driver and app installation to support an nvidia card.

    Hell Yeah! Direct Deepstack Integration - 5.4.0 - March 31, 2021

    A question about the interval for sending additional frames to DS. Most examples I see show a rate of 750ms to 1s. My rule of thumb -- self-conceived so w/o any real basis -- is that this should be no less than the typical DS processing time. My theory is that it makes sense to send frames at a...

    T5442T-ZE upgrade install

    How well are the direct-to-soffit installations holding up? They look aluminum to me. I'm going to be doing the same thing in a few days and I'm a little concerned about the durability of mounting to the soffit.

    Mounting Bullet cameras to metal soffits

    How bad an idea is it to mount the camera to the aluminum soffit without any additional backing (e.g. aluminum stock)? Since it is NEVER mentioned as an option, I expect it must be pretty bad. Are there any success or horror stories?

    How to delete camera groups?

    Just to speak up for the intrepid OP, this too stumped me. Took ½ hour of reading and experimenting to figure it out and I'm not sure I could do it again.

    New DeepStack September Update Version 2021.09.1

    Is that as simple as executing the installer EXE (DeepStack-Installer-CPU-2021.09.1.exe) and letting it do its thing as though it was a new install?

    I made the Reolink mistake

    v.494 re-appeared at the Reolink download center last week (and this time has stuck). Has anyone verified it properly sets the iframe interval?

    The installer is (good) news to me! Do we still need to stop AITOOL before the upgrade? Or does it install over an older version auto-magically? Still need to unzip and copy?

    Mostly, yes. The video was incredibly helpful but I used the slightly modified instructions from danecreekphotography/node-deepstackai-trigger He gives full credit to The Hook Up but adds a few tweaks that updated the video.

    Thanks @austwhite and @Ripper99 . This was a huge source of confusion to me when I was trying to figure this out, just a couple of weeks ago. It would have save me a ton of time if I had found a simple paragraph like you just gave me.

    I endorse the Dane Creek notes. As a total newbie, I found his hints to be very helpful. His process is 95% from The Hookup video, but he incorporates some newer techniques since the video was produced. @Ripper99 Would you please clarify "clone" terminology? Following The Hookup video, I set...

    Make use of QuickSync and not graphics card

    In my case, on an I5-6560 which to the best of my knowledge has QuickSync enabled in the bios, I show a small GPU LOAD and a blank column under HA. Would this mean the GPU is enabled but not visible to BI? I'd appreciate any tips on how to enable the onboard GPU.

    Can't reach UI3 over local network

    I wasn't sure whether this was a question for the NETWORKING forum or BLUE IRIS. I think I've set up WEB SERVER correctly for no user authorization over the local LAN and correct pointers to the UI3 WWW directory. From the local BI computer, I can reach the UI3 interface, but from any other...

    Blue Iris + Plex: Bad Idea?

    Thank you @silencery My only GPU is the Intel Quicksync. Does that count, or do you mean a separate unit? I really admit that I'm confused by substreams - not the concept but how to properly use them in BI. Each of my physical cameras are configured as two logical cameras, with one using the...

    Blue Iris + Plex: Bad Idea?

    Hi. New Blue Iris user here. In setting up BI on a dedicated I5-6500 (w/ quicksync), and 16GB, I saw "The Hook Up's" video and he mentions that he also runs Plex Media Server on the same Windows computer. Is this advisable? The system runs only BI, AItool, Deepstack-for-Windows plus the...

    Progress. Maybe even success. I went back to the VorlonCd release version 2.0.37.7608 from Oct 30 and that is now running. I'm not concluding that there is anything wrong with the more recent version, but perhaps something in the way I installed it. Thank you, @Village Guy.
