    Sentry alerts for specific times only

    Ok one more thing that's not working. I went to the camera alerts section and in Profile 1 Active, I unchecked the Alerts box. Then I changed the profile to Profile 3 Night and checked the Alerts box. Coming back to the camera settings later, it automatically enabled the alerts check box for...

    Sentry alerts for specific times only

    Ok, great. One thing that's confusing in alerts page on the camera is Motion Zones A through H are selected. I don't want camera to alert on any zone but only on my zone rule (Object crosses zone B-C). How do I do that?

    Sentry alerts for specific times only

    Thanks. I already have profiles set which dictate my zone configuration for day and night but I only want to use a portion of the night time to get alerts

    Sentry alerts for specific times only

    Guys - how do I configure BI alerts section in camera so that I can only get alerts when it's 'Sentry Confirmed'. Also, is it possible to get alerts only between 10pm-5am at night eve though my night/day schedule is different Thanks

    Wait until triggered at least X times

    Folks - how popular is this feature in BI under Alerts or very few people using it? I would like to use it but don't have a deep understanding yet. in my case my make time is 0.6 seconds. If I set the alert for the camera that looks over my 15x20 front yard, at the moment the person is already...

    Easier way to make zones?

    Ken, BI's author actually configured mine on a remote session and said they should touch and no empty squares

    Easier way to make zones?

    That worked theDank. 105437 hopefully the functionality will come back soon By the way, if there is an error and a simple cell overlaps, what't he worst that could happen

    Easier way to make zones?

    Folks - sometimes, my zones get complicated and are more than a straight line. Is there an easier way to do a zone and then inverse it? For e.g. the attached image is zone B. I wish I could simply copy zone B to zone C and then hit Inverse but doesn't seem this works. Hence, I'm forced to...

    Blue iris alerts delayed by 4-10 mins

    folks I can't figure this one out. It used to work well but no longer does. All my alerts to my android phone are delayed by 4-10 mins. I've turned off 3d Alerts but no difference and it's the same with all cameras. Does anybody using Android here can test out? Thx

    Setting zones

    folks - is the best way to set up zones for folks approaching the front yard from the street to set Zone A to catch everything, zone B for the street and zone C for the front yard and then make a rule B-C? I've read the manual but don't fully comprehend why zone A is set to catch all. Can...

    What is your experience with Sentry?

    For my use case, unfortunately a second is the most I can wait. There are some on-premise tools that integrate with BI or I may just wait for BI's in-built functionality coming in 2020

    What is your experience with Sentry?

    wow, 5-6 seconds along with the most unresponsive customer support I've ever seen for a startup. No go for me and will wait for blue iris to integrate this functionality. Thanks folks

    What is your experience with Sentry?

    Folks - going through all the pages. Can someone comment to performance at night with a good Starlight camera? Is it as good as day in detecting humans? Also, what is the latency between BI sending sentry the image and receiving an alert on the phone. Thanks

    BI ports

    folks - i'm tightening down my windows firewall to allow BI access to only google servers to send alerts to my phone and of course allow any updates from BI servers. I have the google IP address block info but anybody got the BI servers Thx

    Dahua Face Detection alerts in BI

    I'm only referring to face detection as a way to get a motion for a human. I don't care about the actual face database

    Dahua Face Detection alerts in BI

    No alerts on onvif device manager so far in spite of numerous faces in front of the camera. Any way to troubleshoot this?

    Dahua Face Detection alerts in BI

    Ok i'll keep onvif device manager open, clicked on Alerts and will wait for a IsMotion: true message or is it another kind of message if it detects a face? Also i've never been able to figure out any setting in ONVIF device manager to change the time it shows which is always wrong, showing...

    Dahua Face Detection alerts in BI

    folks I've enabled Face detection in a Dahua 5231R camera and had it on IVS prior to this and BI was configured and receiving alerts defined as ONVIF/external. I'm trying to understand if I should see alerts every time the camera detects a face in BI. I don't care about the actual face, just...

    GPU

    Just curious - how many cameras, what MP and what's your CPU showing Thx

    GPU

    For anybody who has GPU working correctly, can you check if your GPU performance chart shows any number besides 0% and is it GPU/3D or GPU/Video Encode Thanks

    Hardware acceleration and GPU question

    I'm having the same issue. BI with hardware decoding worked fine in the past but now it won't even take that setting. In camera, whether I set it to Intel or Intel+VPP, hit ok and come back to setting, it shows as None. The 5.2.5.10 supposedly fixed this hardware decoding bug but even after that...

    Avoiding animals in alerts

    I would like to have used Cancel shadows since I get alerts from folks walking on the sidewalk but their shadows are in my front yard but it says (depreciated) Also, did high definition increase your CPU% - I guess BI saves a snapshot and runs the Motion sensor algorithm on an actual image and...

    Avoiding animals in alerts

    Another q - does BI have any intelligence to cancel shadows? I'm getting alerts from people walking in my front yard but it's actually their shadows. It only occurs during 1 hour of the day when the shadows are super long

    Avoiding animals in alerts

    Folks - Does BI have in-built functionality to stop giving me alerts for cats & racoons. I have been consistently moving object size upwards and now at 603 but the camera does keep catching animals which are about 10 feet distance from it. Any way to avoid this without paying for a Sentry...

    High CPU overnight

    I know it's not the most ideal situation but i can't afford to have two computers running in this household as I live in a city with the highest per kWh cost (we pay 52 cents per kWH compared to the national average of about 13). My only choice if I can't get this to work would be to move to...
