    Camera ONVIF trigger alerts in Blue Iris - Considering using both IVS and Smart Motion Detection

    If I'm using both IVS and Smart Motion Detection to trigger ONVIF for Vehicles, does the first trigger win, or could using both of these at the same time cause two triggers in BI? Thanks

    For those that have used both... Is onboard AI detection more accurate than CPAI?

    I first started with CPAI and it worked well for me. I then converted to using the onboard AI detection on my Dahua 54IRs to detect People, Vehicles and Animals. I've been pleased with the Dahua AI. I thought I'd miss the ability to detect different types of animals or vehicles, but I don't. How...

    ONVIF trigger labels

    I've noticed that UI3 now has a "Wildlife" option to filter animal triggers. I currently use my camera's AI for all of my triggers and would like my animal triggers to be filterable using the "Wildlife" filter. If I change my ONVIF config for each camera to use Wildlife instead of Animal for the...

    Best video driver version for HP EliteDesk 800 G5?

    Looking for advice on my new BI PC regarding the best video driver. On my previous PC, I had to go through several different drivers to find one that wouldn't cause BI to escalate the CPU over time. Here's my current info, would appreciate thoughts. Thanks

    UI3 default screen layout setting?

    I just stood up a new PC for BI. Every time I go to UI3, the screen layout reverts back to what I guess is the default. I select the camera group I want to see and select "Clips" view, but it doesn't get saved. I have to do this each time I connect. On my previous PC, this didn't happen. Is...

    Decided to upgrade my Blue Iris PC... is this a good choice?

    I have 20 cameras. The majority are 4 MP at 15 FPS. I don't use Deepstack AI, instead I use the camera's AI and use ONVIF triggers. I'm currently running BI on an older Dell OptiPlex 3010, specs below. I found this PC for sale and I'd appreciate input. Thanks...

    Need to recommend a system for a family member... looking for suggestions

    My system that works exceptionally well is based on all cameras from Andy and Blue Iris. I have a family member that would like to install a camera system. They would never be able to use BI, so I'm looking for NVR options that are user friendly. I know nothing about NVRs but plan to start...

    ONVIF rule criteria for triggering events in BI

    If my Amcrest AD410 doorbell camera is providing this information for when it detects a human at the doorbell. How would the BI ONVIF rule need to be created in order to trigger BI for the event? In BI, the camera shows that the ONVIF event status is "ok". Thanks

    I really like my Amcrest AD410, but I'm ready for a PoE option

    Something that's a similar size to the AD410 that support PoE is what I'm looking for. Also, it needs to work with Blue Iris. It's been a couple of years since I looked into doorbell cameras. Would appreciate any replies that can suggest PoE options. I pre-wired this area with the expectation...

    Continuous Sub + Triggered storage requirements

    If I have 16 cameras all using substreams with D1 (704x480) resolution, using Continuous Sub + Triggered, would this calculation be somewhat accurate? The Equivalent Bitrate number does seem to change when I select different resolutions.

    The case for using the SSA backlight setting

    I have several new cameras from Andy and they are awesome! Tremendous upgrades for all my cameras from only 3 years ago. A new to me setting available is SSA backlight. My FOVs almost all include areas of bright sun and shade due to my surroundings. Selecting SSA seems to really improve the...

    Is a D1 sub-stream less accurate than the main stream for AI analysis?

    Reason I ask is that I recently changed mine from main to sub and I'm noticing that I'm getting a higher percentage of "Nothing Found" from a camera that views the street and captures vehicles using the same version of CPAI and the medium model size. Thanks

    Looking for suggestions on a replacement BI PC and GPU for CPAI

    I've been running BI on a Dell OptiPlex 3010 for ages. It has 16 GB of RAM and a NVIDIA P400 GPU. Now that I have 17 cams and 16 of them running CPAI, I'd like to request your help in selecting a replacement PC and GPU. Could a nice replacement be had for under $500, including the GPU? Thanks!
