    Blue Iris Version 6.0.1.24 Now Supports Custom Models

    Hmm...are you only referring to the truly "old" versions (that go back 2-3+ years), or have you been testing the "new" .onyx versions published roughly one week ago by @MikeLud1 (see post #1 Github link above)? The built-in BI AI only supports ONYX versions (with some specific version...

    Blue Iris Version 6.0.1.24 Now Supports Custom Models

    It might be helpful to revisit the subject of what each model uses for naming of objects (capitalization of person vs. Person), and/or how these interact with BI's use of shorthand macros (persons, vehicles, wildlife) and where each can be used. A matrix/table perhaps?

    Send Pushover notifications with pictures and hyperlinks

    Hmm...yes, in situations (certain cameras and/or schedules) where I'm using ONVIF triggers exclusively, the MEMO portion does come through on the Pushover alert, but not at all on camera schedules that use a combined BI motion (with the new built-in AI) alongside ONVIF triggers, or even on the...

    Send Pushover notifications with pictures and hyperlinks

    I have been successfully using Pushover and this method for well over three years, but noticed that (starting roughly six months ago) I no longer receive the "&MEMO" portion of the alert. I haven't changed the formatting of my Pushover curl command at all over this period, but I don't receive...

    Just upgraded to 6.x.20 version; CPU @ 110% now, most cameras no signal; help!

    Yes, yours will have it, no question...every version since December 18, 2025 (Version 6.0.1.2, 6.0.1.3, 6.0.1.4 etc...) has had the option to use the built-in AI.

    Built-in BI AI started with BI 6.0.1.2

    Just upgraded to 6.x.20 version; CPU @ 110% now, most cameras no signal; help!

    Yes, 3 is acceptable . You might also need to check that AI didn't get turned on unintentionally on each camera, including facial recognition and license plate settings.

    Just upgraded to 6.x.20 version; CPU @ 110% now, most cameras no signal; help!

    Try going to the main (overall settings) BI tab for AI, and turn down maximum connections from the default 30 or 40 down to 2 or 4, particularly if you are using a system with only an iGPU, not a dedicated graphics card.

    Onvif alerts

    Please report this to Ken (the developer of BI). I am seeing this as well on the most recent versions, it seems to be running the internal BI AI analysis on ONVIF events, even when we have specifically told BI to only run AI on "motion and overlap". I would bug him myself, but I don't want to...

    Reducing CPU Usage

    Err...yes, that was mentioned in my post as well, the fan should remain fixed/stationary, both to preserve the bearings and to avoid turning the fan into a (voltage) generator.

    Reducing CPU Usage

    Yes, those CPU temps are pretty high, but they seem to have been polled when the CPU utilization was also quite high (first column typically). Either way, it warrants further investigation: at a minimum, a full interior of computer case cleaning, particularly the CPU fan and cooler. Compressed...

    Reducing CPU Usage

    If you want to try one more thing before going through the hassle of a full OS reinstallation, you might want to try this out to essentially do an "in-place" debloat, it allows you turn off many unwanted services in Windows (10 or 11). https://www.oo-software.com/en/shutup10

    Reducing CPU Usage

    You said BI is shut down when you are still seeing roughly 20% CPU usage, but is it still potentially running as a service in the background? Go the the Windows "Services" tab/plugin/panel and double-check from there that BI is truly shut down fully.

    Reducing CPU Usage

    You might want to check the global (overall) AI settings, including reducing the number of simultaneous connections: oftentimes this carries over as the previously recommended setting of 40, now Ken has said either in the help file or release notes that 2 to 4 works far better for many systems...

    Onvif alerts not working in BI6

    What exact version of B!6? 6.0.1.10 had this problem with Alert times not be in "alignment'. I notified Ken and it was fixed in all the following versions (see release notes that refer to a JSON problem).

    Permanent "Holiday" Lights discussion

    All I can say for now is "ditto" to every point you made. I even bought the exact same lights as you did (Black Friday/Cyber Monday deal), but had to put off the installation until the weather improves a bit (and now that the hectic holiday season is over). I do have an open soffit situation to...

    Blue Iris Updates - Official Thread

    Wow, it seems that a few of you wanted to try out 6.0.1.10 anyway despite my warning. Ken has confirmed my bug report and is planning to release a fix later this evening or tomorrow. He didn't say if it would retain the same version number or be bumped up to 6.0.1.11

    Blue Iris Updates - Official Thread

    I would suggest avoiding 6.0.1.10, it turned on AI analysis on a camera that had it turned off previously, then would continually re-add it back "on" even when unchecking the boxes and saving. I will let Ken know....

    Add Sunrise Sunset to Time Plan Settings

    Yes, your image above is the right way to achieve the automatic offset relative to the ever changing sunrise/sunset times. I've had it setup this way for a few years now and never have to touch it. Your image shows 22 minutes of offset for today, and it will keep the same number of minutes all year.

    Blue Iris UI3

    Haven't had time to thoroughly test this, but I seem to have a "new" problem with 6.0.1.8 and the UI3 links sent with Pushover alerts: they now don't open the exact clip I'm expecting, but rather some more or less random (but within the same hour) time from the correct camera. It may be from...

    Version 6.0.1

    I didn't realize I had started an entire sub-topic of discussion in regards to holiday lights and getting our cameras to deal with those, LOL. Yes, I will also be moving to permanent holiday lights as well next year (purchased, but didn't have enough time yet for this season, open soffit...

    Version 6.0.1

    Sounds good in theory, but in practice the hanging icicle light strings aren't "seen" or identified at all, until they are blowing around, in which case CPAI (or the new built-in BI AI) will sometimes identify them as a person, which is really unhelpful, or, as I said before, will trick the...

    Version 6.0.1

    Nearly all of that bot's explanation is directly available in the BI help file. Regardless, in actual practice, I haven't found this feature particularly useful: in one of my camera views, at this time of the year only, my holiday icicle lights very slightly obscure the views across my lawn and...

    Anyone else getting camera lag with the newer version?

    The BI phone app shows CPU, RAM, and Disk usages as percentages only.

    Version 6.0.1

    Weren't you also working on retraining/reworking your YOLO5 models into YOLO11.NET format? Or has that been shelved?

    Version 6.0.1

    I guess I shouldn't be surprised, no @MikeLud custom models here (ipcam-dark, ipcam-animal, ipcam-combined, ipcam-general)? Ugh...like starting over from scratch with AI.

    Version 6.0.1

    Very odd naming scheme: 6.0.1 has been out for about 6 days now (12/10/2025), but this seems to be 6.0.1.0, released today (12/16/2025), and has none of the update notes (AI bulit-in, etc..) shown above when viewed in the changelog link. I'll hold out for another couple of days personally.

    Version 6

    My experience, and from what I see, true for most others: run the installation of BI6 (preferably using the full package installer from the website, but it supposedly also works from the internal upgrade package as well now), BEFORE uninstalling BI5. This will transfer/ duplicate all of your...

    Has AI changed in the last few years?

    I would say there have been no significant changes in the last year or two for CPAI (that would justify doing an updated installation), especially in light of the fact that Ken (the developer of Blue Iris) has announced that he will soon be implementing an integrated AI solution into BlueIris...

    Version 6

    I did the "full installation" of one of the early cycle 5.9.9.9. builds (the Beta 6.0 series, which installs "Blue Iris" - note the lack of version name on the Desktop and in Add/Remove Programs), but provisionally kept my old install of BI 5.9.x.x (Blue Iris 5): not running of course, just...
