    Full ALPR Database System for Blue Iris!

    It looks like it does not flip the bit if you have either of these enabled: If you do not, then it works as expected.

    Did you use the update.sh script or doing it manually?

    You need ":" between "ai_dump" and &JSON , like this "ai_dump":&JSON

    Full ALPR Database System for Blue Iris!

    I'm also not seeing the flag being flipped, I just did a docker pull, made a few changes, and no change after about 30 mins.

    Full ALPR Database System for Blue Iris!

    It worked the first time, but the next plate that gets corrected does not flip the confirm bit. I can flip it manually, tho.

    Best Image settings for night moving vehicle capture on Hik 12mm 1/2.8" 8MP

    Here is a $35 camera at about 90ft. Gain, DNR, WDR, etc are all going to hurt the image quality for LPR.

    I updated again to get the confirmation feature, looks like that confused the update script.

    Caught Catalytic Converter Thieves On My Andy IPC-Color4K-T Camera

    I've some cars around my area with fake paper plates, at night they are not reflective so it's very difficult to read. Sometimes they just take the plates off completely. Here is what a legit paper plate in CA looks like, VI N and expiration is printed on the plate: This is what I see on...

    PTZ w/stored focus points and HTTP scripting?

    Your camera might be too old to support V8 of the http APIs, but looks like there is some ability to adjust the focus. I have not tried this with my Reolink PTZ, so I am not sure how well it works. But just a few days ago, I needed to be able to set focus manually on another PTZ in very...

    Full ALPR Database System for Blue Iris!

    So just a docker compose pull to update, then go to then http://url/update to complete the update? Or do we need to grab the migration.sql first Thanks!

    Full ALPR Database System for Blue Iris!

    I think these devices wake it up by sending pulsing an electromagnet and I think they only work when it's within inches of the sensor, but I haven't taken one apart to confirm.

    Vigilant Solutions VSR-60-02MP1 IP Camera IPC262ER9-X10DU 24V, 1.5A, 50/60Hz.

    You will not find any firmware updates for these cameras via the normal avenues. You might be able to install the original Uniview firmware on them if the firmware is not signed with Vigilant's certs. I haven't tried, so I am not sure if it will work. When you are ready for some fun, go to...

    Focus strategy in the dark

    Solved. I'm posting this in case it's useful to someone in the future who has a camera that does not have stepped focusing (the ability to adjust focus by providing the camera a specific value). The camera I am using is a full size PTZ, branded as a Vigilant VSR-60-02MP3, which is a rebranded...

    Full ALPR Database System for Blue Iris!

    When it is released, will you have the code to purge plates with 0 reads ready? I have 1000s of them.

    API or command for getting my UNV and their OEMs

    You can try this, but I am not sure what you mean by password type. This camera is reporting Vigilant's firmware, but it's actually an OEM Uniview, maybe with some LPR optimization in the firmware (I can't tell, I don't have a Uniview to compare to). curl --digest -u USERNAME:PASSWORD -X GET...

    Focus strategy in the dark

    Lol. No, not this one. I have about half dozen of LPRs on different properties so I fully understand the importance of using the right tool for the job. It's fine, I was just checking with the community to see if there are some manual focus strategies that might be useful for cameras that do...

    Focus strategy in the dark

    This is what I am working with LOL: Those are reflectors in the road that divide the direction of traffic. If the far reflector is bleeding less than the nearest one, it's in focus enough to work, but that's not sufficient for auto focus to work so it has to be done manually. These is a...

    Vigilant Solutions VSR-60-02MP1 IP Camera IPC262ER9-X10DU 24V, 1.5A, 50/60Hz.

    For my lighting conditions, these settings seem to work. You can dial the gain down if the images are too noisy.

    Focus strategy in the dark

    I've been struggling with a Uniview PTZ that I am using for LPR. I am trying to use this camera to capture plates at 140-160ft away, and when the camera is in focus, I am able to read the plates clearly. It works w/o any issues during the day time, AF is fast and there isnt much work needed to...

    Vigilant Solutions VSR-60-02MP1 IP Camera IPC262ER9-X10DU 24V, 1.5A, 50/60Hz.

    Congrats on the camera. I have a bunch of them and I use it for LPR, and it works pretty well. The IR could be a little stronger, but it works fine up to about 100ft. Be careful with waterproofing if you are running it on POE, make extra sure the ethernet connector is dry, otherwise it will...
