@Chris Dodge Will you be releasing an update soon? Every now and then AITools gets stuck on a .jpg and doesn't process any subsequent images. Thanks

Dear team,
I'm running BI cloned camera + volconCD.
Is there a way to run just single CAM and avoid having all false alert reported to BI
Thanks for your help

Yes you can but you will need to setup BI to record continously and then set alerts so they can be cancelled. Presently I'm not personally aware of a way to achieve this without recording continously. Please chime in if anyone knows more.
I should add this is a moving target that many users are hoping to achieve. So tomorrow ..........

under where I can find that option? to use substream as motion and take Main-stream's image

It isn’t an option. When using 5.3.3 that is just want happens. But you need to ensure you have a pre trigger recording of a few seconds to ensure it can go back to get the image.
just changed over to VorlonCD version.. however no matter when a trigger happens, I never get it to send me a photo to telegram. I just get
I know the telegram bot works because I had errors being sent previously because I had the wrong password in the camera trigger url and was getting those notifications no problem.
I have cooldown minutes on 0
Code:
TelegramText> Still in TELEGRAM cooldown. No image will be uploaded to Telegram. (0.0641 of 0.0833333 minutes - See 'telegram_cooldown_minutes' in settings file)

Worked with Ken and found that the trigger URL to override the current image for the SMS is &trigger&jpeg=<PATH>
Found that using @Chris Dodge AI tool, and the original @GentlePumpkin, the trigger does not work on sending the image.
If you manually take out the URL that was attempted from the AI log, and put it in the browser it works just fine.
This also only works for the non-MergeImageAnnotations image file, so the original one captured and sent to AI. (not sure why the MergeImageAnnotations one wont work)
I am going to run some PCAPS if I cant find a way to get BI at a higher log level, to see if there is a difference on the receiving of the URL
Thoughts on a possible fix out the w.o log review.
If the merge step could be combined with the copy to file step and make a file in a directory then move to the trigger step.
This way you could just hard code the file being called on the trigger URL rather than a variable.
There could be a timing issue if multiple alerts come in though.
Right now the copy to folder happens after the trigger step is done, so we would not be able to call the copied file for the trigger url

Your pre trigger video buffers must be long enough to capture a full frame before it will work. Try setting it to 1 or 2 seconds
I just tried 2 seconds, and 5 seconds, still getting the low quality substream jepgs.
there's no box i need to tick to make this take Main-stream's snapshots?

I tested it when the facility became available and it worked except occasionally I would get a corrupt image from my 12 Mp stream so have disabled it for the moment. No other changes were required in addition to the video buffer. Check out the help file, it has been updated to explain the new functionality. Perhaps it has got broken in the latest version!
Check under trigger tab. It has a high-res option I think. Can't remember the combo needed lol.
I think the downside to this though is it will duplicate the images. You will get one in the alerts folder (which is what it uses to send to devices for alerts) and one in the folder you have set for AI tools.
That said I don't have that checked because the above and my AI tools is getting high-res snaps. Your i-frame on your cameras needs to be 1.0 in BI and your pre-buffer can be 1.1 and that should be it honestly.
Doing the above checkbox makes the emailed alerts high-res too though but again, you end up with duplicate images in locations and thus more processing wasted.

I have just tested the new functionality and it appears that it only works if your camera is sending H.264. When I change the stream to H.265 it stops working.
All my cameras are H265 and AI is getting high-res photos.
Make sure your sub and mainstream have the same key frame settings.
I was able to install the GPU version on bare metal, however it will only process 1 image before stopping. Can you share your setup and process please?

Can you share what URL you are using to cancel the alert? I haven’t been able to get this working.

as per my post;
Edit- times do seem better but its processing a number of images then stopping.

Sadly it would appear that some cameras running H.265 do not work with this function. After your post I began to think it was pilot error on my side but after several hours of testing I have proven conclusively that the issue is to do with camera compatibility. For example I have amongst others two HikVision cameras (see attached) one works with switching H.265 streams the other will only work when set for H.264. I could post all the settings but you would simply see that they are all the same with the exception of camera stream resolutions.

Did you erase the camera folder? If you do not have a camera folder beside the main exe, the. You need to create it again.
what are you guys doing with the SQL database file, after a while the file gets so big, when I RDP to my Blueiris machine to look at AI tool, it will try to initialize the history forever. IF i delete the file, it opens right away.
