If you are not getting any calls, try doing this:
Go to your BI main settings, and go to the AI tab:
Make sure your IP and port are correct. Then click on the AI Dashboard link to the right of that to confirm you can reach it.
Next, click on the 3 dots next to the "Use custom models" and...
Mike, do you have an approx time frame for the Linux release? I'll be on a 11th gen Intel with iGPU only so I wont be able to provide any feedback for CUDA, etc.
You can expand any or all of your macros and save it to a text file on BI. To do this, go to your camera's On Alert tab and create a new action. Select write-to-file as the method. This should show what BI is sending to the ALPR database.

The TZ you are using matches from the wiki?
You are not referring the the "last seen date", right?
It won't expand &AI_dump, it just literally prints that text, whereas &CAM will expand it to the camera name. I didn't go back to older versions of BI nor ALPRdatabase, this is with 0.19 and 5.9.9.73.
I had the same issue, but with a different camera that also does not have focus presets, but does have a http call you can make to force the camera to focus in either direction. To make this work for me, I have a script that runs ever few hours during the day time to go to a preset, which...
Okay, I've found the issue and adding it here in case someone runs into this in the future. On this system, I was still running the older 0.18 code and when I upgraded to 0.19, it fixed the problem partially. It seems in newer versions of BI (certainly in 5.9.9.73, but NOT in 5.9.9.33), the...
Anyone running Blue Iris 5.9.9.73 (8/28/2025)? My BI system crashed and when it rebooted, it updated to 5.9.9.73, and suddenly I am no longer getting any saved plates in ALPR Dashboard. And I started to see this in the log:
10/4/2025, 8:43:55 PM [INFO] Received plate read data: [object...
My understanding is that this is a CPAI server issue--it is designed to use the older version of CUDA. The docs even tell you how to downgrade.

I think the band-aid approach is still very valuable as a built-in feature to correct misreads. OCR will always give some inaccurate readings, especially when we are trying to do this in various weather and lighting conditions. And given the challenges with CPAI slow development, maybe there...
The last few days, I've been playing with Llama3.2-vision and have been feeding it pictures of plates with mis-reads and also prompting it to describe the year, make, model, and color of the car, and the results were pretty remarkable. It's getting most of them right.
It had a little...
I don't use a GPU for my setup, but maybe you should run nvidia-smi and see what it shows? If your GPU is properly detected, it should show the driver and cuda version at the top.
Take a look at your docker compose file, you should have lines in there that look like this:
volumes:
- app-auth:/app/auth
- app-config:/app/config
- app-plate_images:/app/storage
volumes:
db-data:
app-auth:
driver: local
driver_opts:
