I believe we can all agree that the developers of Blue Iris have been and are doing an amazing job of keeping the the program at the leading edge of security surveillance.
That said and I speak as a fully paid up subscriber for updates, I am disappointed that despite several requests by both myself and others we have been unable to get Ken the author to implement additional video trigger options.
Presently we are limited to 5 choices that all store video even upon a miss trigger. Now that AI has come of age and has now been implemented within blue Iris, surely it is time for a discussion regarding the addition of perhaps two more trigger modes. For example Trigger on AI and Trigger Externally.
By adopting these additional trigger options those of us that do not want to record unqualified triggers would be able to do away with using cloned cameras to resolve the issue. Trigger on AI could be used for triggering internal Blue Iris AI qualified events and Trigger Externally could be used by AITool.
Ken has advised me that the reason for not offering this feature is to avoid missing events and that the program has not be developed with this feature capability. IMHO both reasons are quite weak to me especially when we see how quickly Ken implements new functionality.
The purpose of this post is to discuss and find out how many users would like the option to only record video on AI qualified events.
Personally I can see a case for all scenarios with Continuous being favoured by commercial security applications and AI Qualified for a large number of domestic applications that would prefer restrict storage requirements.
