    5.5.5 - February 2, 2022

    yes there was, so you could see which camera the alert for was, I to now have a much different bar, also little rainbowy now as well, I prefer the old look.

    Image sensor size - 1/1.8” vs 1/2.8"

    Would I be right in thinking that a senor 1/1.8” is about double the size of a 1/2.8" making a camera with a 1/1.8” 4Megapixel senor about the same as a 1/2.8" 2Megapixel when it comes to light sensitivity?

    Which Dahua 2MP Starlight dome to buy in 2022?

    As the tilt says, what is the best Dahua 2MP Starlight to buy in 2022? It's going outdoors, there will be a little street lighting, I think 2.8mm will suit beter than 3/4/6mm - I'll be using BI and Deepstack so have no need for cam AI/IVS etc - providing the nighvision and price is roughly on...

    5.5.5 - February 2, 2022

    I've had this issue on and off a few times in the last few versions of BI - a bit of mad clicking around selecting different cameras/clips sorted it each time.

    Hey Andy, I'm after some more cameras, something from the range of Dahua Starlight 2mp 2.8mm dome - Can you let me know what you have in stock and the prices please. I'll want two or three of them.

    Purging cancelled alerts?

    Click the little folder icon (highlighted yellow circle) and then select cancelled alerts (2nd yellow highlight) and you'll see all the hidden cancelled alerts, you're current view will be All Clips I guess with the default option of hidding the canceclled ones.

    Purging cancelled alerts?

    Sadly not, I ended up disabling alert images and for the mini/thumbnails that go to the DB I manually filter them about once a week in the main BI GUI cancelled alert clip list section and delete them all and then optimise the DB. In rain, wind, snow etc I get a cancelled alert every few mins...

    SMD 3.0 dahua

    @Wildcat_1 Which firmware would you recommend for IPC-T5442T-ZE if all you care about is image quality day and night, light at night would be IR only. I have no need for cam level AI IVS/SMD as BI and Deepstack handle my needs well - I'm currently running 2020-12-03 - Are the any image quality...

    CPUUsage Increase x2 ?

    One think to note is that although using your Nvidia card for HA over Intel might make your CPU stats look better it will come at the cost of consuming more power, the Nvidia card will never drop to its lower clock speeds and power savings as it will always be under load, this results in higher...

    5.5.1 - September 23, 2021

    TBH I think it has bounced backwards and forwards a few times, at first it only did confirmed alerts and I recall it broke/changed in a few 5.4.x.x versions but then worked (only stored confirmed alerts) in later versions of 5.4.x.x

    5.5.1 - September 23, 2021

    Has anyone esle got an issue where 5.5.1.x seems to be saving all alert images to the alerts folder and not just Deepstack confirmed? As you can see from the below I'm database only and the Burn lable mark-up in AI previously only saved confirmed alerts with the mark-up to the alerts folder.

    5.5.1 - September 23, 2021

    This is not an answer to your CPU issue as it seems like a bug from what you've said but can I ask what GPU your running? reason for the ask is that I've found using the GPU (CUDA) version of deepstack performs signicantly better - I'm running an older Nvida 970GTX

    5.5.0 - September 13, 2021

    So after some trial and error I managed to find a workaround, or perhaps even the way I should have used the system from the start. So I arranged the cams using the edit layout function as I wanted them in my screen shot above. I then enabled "Solo Selected Camera" and then in options set 1-up...

    Has anyone asked Ken/Sam to if we can get the drag cameras function back when in "1 up" or "2 up" type views without having to use edit mode?

    5.5.0 - September 13, 2021

    I've managed to get the view something like how it was before, but all the cams are locked in place so I have no way to quickly drag a little one from the right to the larger left (main view area) I've managed this by setting the left cam to height 9 and the ones on the right to height 2 and a...

    This new layout system is awful This new layout system is awful, I can understand some people wanting to have the option to really customise how they want it but to break the easy to use and simple layout from the older version seems like a step backwards, not only is it almost impossible to...

    just updated and now my console is 6 cameras of eqaul size, before I used a view where 1 was very large and tookup most of the console with the other 5 almost thumbnail size down the right of the larger one, any idea how I get back to that style of view?

    +All cameras (Index) - disable/remove?

    Is there a way to either disable or remove from view the +All cameras (Index) group so I only see my individual cameras in the cameras section of the Andriod app?

    5.9.11+ and Dahua 4MP cams

    If you have any form of motion detection in BI then even though the data is writen direclty to disk the frames have to be decoded to check for changes in pixels for the motion detection.

    5.9.11+ and Dahua 4MP cams

    That was the point I was trying to make, you won't have hardware acceleration for h265/HEVC on older gen Intel chips which means it drops back to software decode and puts more demand on the CPU

    5.9.11+ and Dahua 4MP cams

    you might want to think about dropping the cams back down to h264 - As I recall Intel hardware support for h265/HEVC was not added until the 6th Gen Intel chips - Ignore this if you have a discrete GPU performing the HA.

    5.9.11+ and Dahua 4MP cams

    An i5-2300 is now pretty old and fairly weak for the No. cams you have, I'd recommend having a look on ebay, gumtree etc for something around Intel 6th gen - you should get a whole system or at least MoBO/RAM/CPU combo for reasonable money and good bang for your buck

    @wittaj - I have 4 good cams FPS = iframes but also have two cheap cams with 0.25 iframes so I'll enable and adjust for based on the cheapo ones. @kklee - I've got something simliar for my driveway and street pavement where I tend to detect only people legs on the leading images so will see...

    I see loads of people taking about Pre-trigger video buffer in this thread - I've personally got it disabled on all my cams as I 24/7 record the main streams. I was wondering if it could still add value, I did ask this in a dedicated post about a month ago but never got a response, could be the...

    Yes and I'm happy about it :) - means I have a high-res image of confirmed alerts. You can disable it by turning it off in each camera AI settings the Burn label mark-up on alert image
