    Any reason to still have 3rd party AI now that BI have it built in?

    I am always using the latest available version, currently 2.9.5, but I had to increase the MAX_IDLE_SECS_BEFORE_RECYCLE value - see GitHub commit. It is running fine for more than a year. I also tried to implement using MikeLud's fine-tunned models (GitHub branch), but never took the time to...

    Any reason to still have 3rd party AI now that BI have it built in?

    One large difference is that Coral is not supported by the integrated AI. I tried using integrated AI but the analysis time per frame was from 700-1200 ms on my Dell OptiPlex 3070, which is unusable. With CPAI and two USB Coral modules plugged in, detection times range from 16 to 25 ms.

    IPC-T5442T-ZE IPC-T5442TM-AS IPC-T5842T-ZE SMD 3.0 Smart IR Latest New Firmware From EmpireTech

    @EMPIRETECANDY I was so happy when you announced your website, as this means having all latest firmwares at one place - empiretech01.com/pages/download-firmwares , instead of searching this forum (and getting confused in multiple threads) every time. Or so I thought. After I updated my camera...

    Blue Iris video settings - Dahua camera models explained

    Hello everyone! I just got multiple IPC-B5442E-ZE cameras and for some of them, I would like to enable two-way audio. I have setup everything related to audio on cameras via their web interface and general settings in Blue Iris. Pressing Find/Inspect in Blue Iris always selects Generic/ONVIF...

    External, independent control of Dahua IR LEDs and Alarm output via API

    Thank you both. After searching around a bit more, I found some API documents where the URLs that Alaska Country posted are described, and found out that I can set the lights from there. I need to test a bit more for alarms functionality. I have only tried setting Illuminator to Manual on the...

    External, independent control of Dahua IR LEDs and Alarm output via API

    Thank you for the answer, however the (additional) hardware is not a problem, I make and program my own. Usually I flash ESPHome firmware for perfect integration with Home Assistant (and known API). But, I want to avoid using additional WiFi/Ethernet module, because of the A. and B. points in...

    Hello, I currently have IPC-T5442T-ZE and 2x IPC-B5442E-ZE, and in the process of ordering 6 more. I like T(urret) version more, but B(ullet) has alarm output - considering which one to buy based on the problems below. 1. I noticed that integrated IR LEDs are too spotlight focused, so I would...

    Are advanced camera features (AI) used if using camera with BI?

    @ljw2k thanks to @EMPIRETECANDY's wizardry, I have just received 1x IPC-T5442T-ZE + 1x IPC-B5442E-ZE + 1x IPC-T5442TM-AS (for testing, to check which fixed-focal lens are the best, then I order 6 more) in one week with DHL without paying anything additionally or package stopping at customs. I...

    Are advanced camera features (AI) used if using camera with BI?

    Thank you for you answers, afterwards I stopped caring about this, because there is too much choice and I could never make a decision if I keep my engineering + overthinking attitude. With the help of SouthernYankee's post and Arjun's post posts I decided I will most probably buy combination of...

    Are advanced camera features (AI) used if using camera with BI?

    Hello! I'm reading this forum for a few months now and already bought used Dell OptiPlex 3060 (i5 8500, 8 GB DDR4, 258 GB m.2) which will be used to run Blue Iris for - as currently planned - 6 to 8 cameras (still deciding on FOV and 2/4/5 MP). I was browsing Andy's (@EMPIRETECANDY) AliExpress...
