[tool] [tutorial] Free AI Person Detection for Blue Iris

Have you set the mask for the hd 1920x1080 stream. The mask will need be changed to match the stream being processed.
As usual I think the issue is the 12 in of space between my forehead and keyboard. LOL. I was just checking that out and have changed everything on that camera to ensure it is matching the correct size of the image vs the mask...THX! Pretty sure this should stop the errors.
 
So I have a dumb question.... With DeepStack being local is it learning and getting 'smarter'? I must say my BI system is running good so far and getting nice hits with cars and people around my house.
 
I'm not sure what is going on with deepstack as they ignore emails, the forum and you can't seem to contact them.

Sadly, they have been mute for months. I finally got the GPU version to install and work, but it stops after only processing 10 images. I am trying to sort that out, as I am getting times between 100-180ms.

Spoke to soon. Still getting the error but just on the 1 camera, going to have to compare all the settings to see what is different I guess...

If all the cameras are the same manufacturer, check if the iframe interval and stream resolutions are identical to working cameras. Are all the cameras set for 50 or 60 Hz frame rate etc.

Fear not you will get there in the end ;)

Mmmm. You might on to something with the iframe rate, I was messing with it on one of the cameras the other day, the Hz should not be a issue as I have never tried to change it.....

@Village Guy Nope. no change when I reset Iframe?? I did notice however in BI if I go to the Video tab, select the force size box, change it to match the mask size, which of course is the same size as the full res pic and click OK, then go back in it is not staying at the resolution I changed it to, it defaults back to 768X432, does this on all the cameras. That is also the size of the (sub-stream?) pics it is picking up and throwing in the AI folder. Do you , or anyone think this may be a BI issue? Easy fix is to stop running the sub-stream but it is jacking w/ head now and I want to know WTH is going on. It is my understanding it should only be putting the main stream photos onto the AI folder am I correct?

Unrelated to this annoyance I am still getting this- I have seen some others asking about it but I have not (sorry if I missed it) a reason of why it throws the error

Has anyone figured out how to auto start deepstack in windows without docker? Maybe using a .bat file... Currently trying to read through 103 pages so if someone could help me out I'd appreciate it.

To the best of my knowledge the retries are not errors as such. I suspect the file might not have being writen to disk or it is being indexed by the OS after being recently added which might make it unavailable. I can confirm that I see the same retries in my log.

Can I propose that you switch cameras with one channel that is working, this will rule out a configuration issue. Just temporarily swap the ip addresses of a good and bad camera see if the problem follows the address or the camera configuration.

How many cameras do you have that work versus those that error? As I recall you mentioned earlier that only one channel is having an issue.

6 cameras total, I think over time I have seen this particular issue on most of them at one time or another. I will need to scrub the logs and really pin down if all or just some are showing this and try your suggestion, possibly just overloading the system with too many things at once? It does appear to keep trying and finally upload it to DeepQuest...
