Blue Iris Version 6.0.1.24 Now Supports Custom Models

Nothing, Mike said he just renamed them.
I appreciate the reply. Where can I see a list of labels (objects) for each of these models? I'd like to specifically confirm certain things before I'm alerted. Thanks!

If you want to confirm the labels of a model you can use this tool. Click on images twice and on the right side will show you the labels for the model, the below is the general model

Can you explain how primary and additional models works ?
Images are sent to every models at the same time ?
The detection is slow ?
For you what is the best combination to detect person day and night ?
I only used yolo11x until recent BI versions.
Thanks.
Little up to understand how its working. :)
 
I'd like help with this as well. If I only want to test AI using the bi-animal, bi-combined, bi-dark, bi-general and delivery models, how do I use them and turn offthe built-in yolov8s? Thanks!
First go to blueiris settings/AI and select which additional models you want.

Then go to each camera and select the additional models:

If you just want certain models out of your additional group of models check the box and specify which ones in the box.

You must use the built-in YOLOv8 but you can select what models you want to use.
 
for most cams I use IVS and Onvif as the trigger source in BI. If I want to use the AI models to confirm, will it do that with just Onvif selected or do I have to add (or replace) with BI's "Enable Motion Sensor "as trigger?

I believe that you can use just Onvif as the trigger source, then the AI will confirm the alert to that trigger.

Thanks for the reply and screenshots. Does unchecking "Primary Object Detection" keep it from using the YOLOv8?
 
I have the download, but haven't got around to installing the models and testing yet.

One observation is that with Mike's model (I think it was bi general) in the models folder, BI was using +20% CPU, even though (unless I made some daft config error) the AI shouldn't have been doing a thing! Surely that can't be normal?
