    CPAI integration?

    Frigate does its own AI inferencing. What would be the point of the two coming together? And I have to say, Frigate works really REALLY well. I'm not sure I want any CPAI code mixed into Frigate...

    Auxiliary IR Illuminator for LPR

    The Z4 is great up to 75 feet or so. It drops off fast after that from my experience when I had it for LPR. Swapped it out for a Z12 and I get much more zoom now.

    Unifi AI Port- Works great!

    How do you access the AI port and configure it? I refuse to use their shitty controller software again.

    Auxiliary IR Illuminator for LPR

    Here is my review of an Axton PoE illuminator I did a few years ago. I love the thing. Rock solid and its a blaster. https://ipcamtalk.com/threads/axton-poe-illuminator-review.54572/

    Why Ubiquiti/Unifi over Dahua?

    My issue is with the Unifi controller. I hated it when I use to run it years ago. I use to have everything Unifi. Routers, swtiches, APs, controllers, etc.. But what a buggy mess that controller was. Their forums are still littered with issues. I removed my last Unifi AP last week at my...

    Malfunctioning Street Lamp

    If it’s being fed directly by the pole transformer then it’s a power company light. Does you power company not have a way to report a street light outage? My company has a map to identify street lights and each light has a metal tag indicating its ID number.

    PC Power Supply Requirements

    A 750w psu is plenty for that. Bronze, silver, gold, platinum just speaks to the efficiency of the psu. You pay more upfront for higher grade supplies but get it back later via power savings (assuming it doesn’t shit the bed early).

    ID this NVR software?

    Whatever NVR system it is, it doesn’t matter. You can’t afford it. It probably costs several hundred million dollars over decades of service contracts.

    For those that have used both... Is onboard AI detection more accurate than CPAI?

    Dahua IVS is magnitudes better than CPAI. It isn’t even comparable. Easier to deploy, setup, fine tune, and far more accurate unless you are training your own models with CPAI which is outside 99.999% of most people’s purview. I’ll never buy another camera again that doesn’t have built in AI.

    Switch fried...grabbed a new one but cameras stopped working

    No VLANS? Just a flat network (one subnet)? Do you have a desktop that you can plug into that switch? If so, I’d try that and plug the desktop into each switch port (plug the router into one port too) to test and see if it’s working by browsing the internet.

    If I had more free time I’d do this. So many people need help with setup and fine tuning.

    Upgrading Motherboard - Deactivate Blue Iris First? Extend Maintenance?

    I did this not long ago. I didn’t deactivate. It’s not strictly required so long as you don’t use the same key on two different installations simultaneously. I made sure I had an up to date BI export file for my cams. I installed the new BI, typed in my existing license key, and imported my BI...

    Natural Gas Generators

    I just put a new AGM in my truck. Two years doesn’t give me warm and fuzzies!

    Natural Gas Generators

    I’m considering replacing mine with either a no maintenance or agm so I don’t have to screw around with filling it up.

    Natural Gas Generators

    Yup. I do a 5 minute weekly test and a 30 minute monthly test.

    Natural Gas Generators

    1800 is water cooled. 3600 is air cooled. You don’t need a 3 phase generator.

    Natural Gas Generators

    I ran Ethernet out to my 24kw Generac so I could install a RPi out there and run genmon on it. Genmon is great for getting metrics out of the generator and scheduling exercise times. You can extract metrics from the Gen with genmon and used Grafana to build pretty graphs...

    Color 4k-x 6mm -- Half view out of focus/Blurry

    Mine is fine. But mounted 35 feet in the air so no DoF issue for me at that height. https://ipcamtalk.com/threads/worlds-first-review-dahua-ipc-color4k-x-dh-ipc-hfw5849t1-ase-led-full-color-4k-camera.57013/page-64#post-891470

    CodeProject.AI Version 2.9.0

    If I'm running this on Docker on a Linux VM with no GPU, is YOLO 6.2 or .NET recommended? All I'm getting is "Dayplate" when the occasional license plate is read. More often than not I get the "Nothing Found" even though the images are perfectly clear. If I use the CodeAI Explorer, it reads...

    4K-T180 Camera

    You won't be able to really fix that unless camera has some type of LDC ability (barrel correctness but that really only crops the picture so you lose FOV) or the cam can split the 180 degree shot into two different channels that fit a 16:9 screen and you could view each channel separately...
