    A Healthy Competitor - G6 Pro Turret

    At $479.00 for just one camera I'd be afraid to try it because I might like it! Sounds immpressive on paper.

    Add Sunrise Sunset to Time Plan Settings

    After thinking about it, having a Blue Iris schedule for day/night settings might come in handy for adjusting AI settings etc for night time. So I took your advice and set up a global "Day_Night" schedule then disabled it. It worked great to populate the entire schedule in the camera...

    Add Sunrise Sunset to Time Plan Settings

    From the discussion in the Blue Iris forum you linked to. One member said: "Just to understand (I'm a bit fuzzy here)... the Action sets change the cameras itself from color to b/w, adjust exposure, etc for day to night. The global (or individual) schedules in BI change the Profiles, which...

    Add Sunrise Sunset to Time Plan Settings

    I think where I was getting confused is why we have to switch profiles in Blue Iris. If all I want to do is change my actual camera profiles (Night and Day) dependent on sunrise/sunset, wouldn't I just need to use Action sets and forget about the other profile changing in Blue Iris? I just...

    Add Sunrise Sunset to Time Plan Settings

    Ok I tested this out on one of my 4K T cams using the action set feature. I must have set it up ok because it switched from my daytime profile to my nighttime profile just fine. I'm confused a little on a couple things. First I assume I don't have to do anything in the Blue Iris...

    Add Sunrise Sunset to Time Plan Settings

    Yeah same here but I just thought I would tinker with some day profile settings and see if it can be improved any. You can almost close the shutter down and still get a fine picture.

    Add Sunrise Sunset to Time Plan Settings

    So I have always tried to just use one profile. I would basically set up a profile that's best for night time and use only that with my 4K T's and S3's. Of course daytime looks a little bright/washed out in non-shaded areas. Today I started playing around with daytime profiles. Most of my...

    Dahua WizColor 5x59-PRO and SmartLight 5x59-IL new series

    I actually don't think the captures are all that bad, especially if only using the onboard lighting. I'm not a fan of the "warm" lights on the Color4M-T. Even at 100% the usefullness is mediocre at best. I ended up putting my 4K T cam back and will most likely use my Color4M-T inside my...

    Bear carries away my hog trap!*

    Not that I have any personal experience with what I'm about to tell you, but I hear GROK has no boundries like Alexa does when it comes to dirty words and such. Just click on the voice conversation and have a chat. :p

    Dahua WizColor 5x59-PRO and SmartLight 5x59-IL new series

    I just installed my Color4M-T yesterday replacing one of my 4K T cams just as a test. I saved an image from both cameras with similiar settings to compare. I think this is a good example showing the softness issue people have complained about with the 4K T cams.

    My first thoughts on version 6

    I would try it out and see what happens. Add the cameras one by one and monitor your BI PC stats. I have all five of my 4K T cams set up with the onboard AI and the only thing that changed was my RAM usage increasing by about 4%. Even triggering the camera with motion doesn't increase my CPU...

    My first thoughts on version 6

    AI seems to be working fine here with my onboard CPU graphics.

    My first thoughts on version 6

    Thirteen cameras total. Five 8MP and the rest 4MP. I am using BI 6.0.1.6. My five 4K cams are using the built in AI. CPU usage is hovering between 5% and 8%. RAM usage is at 10.7%. PC Specs: i5 14600K. 32G DDR5 RAM. Using onboard graphics on my CPU.

    Version 6

    Todays update (12/22/25) lowered RAM usage for me with six cameras using onboard AI. EDIT: Scratch that......RAM usage back to where it was before. Probably just the rebot during the upgrade.

    Version 6

    I'm using the integrated Intel UHD Graphics on my i5 14600K CPU. I don't even have a dedicated graphics card in my BI system. My CPU usage is the same as before. My RAM has gone up slightly but so far I only have two cameras switched over to AI.

    T-Mobile 5G Home Internet AND Blue Iris

    I upgraded my modem recently to a RM551 and installed it in a M.2 to ethernet sled. Getting well over gig speeds now. Best part is I am using a $10.00/month T-Mobile tablet plan SIM now. Works perfect.

    Version 6

    Yep that's what I'm going to try. I'm currently testing a few AI things out with the camera here inside my office to get a feel for things.

    Version 6

    I have alot of wildlife where I live and enjoy watching motion events from the critters. One of the things I love about my 54IR-ZE-S3 cams is the built in animal detection. This is not available on my five 4K T cams. So, I am currently experimenting with the new built in AI from the latest...

    Olden day Pictures

    When I was a kid we had a store called Yard Birds. They had a 60' tall bird mascot and you could drive between its legs with your car. On a 95F day in 1976 there was a car fire at the store. Guess where the car was? Yep between the birds legs. The bird was freshly varnished and burned down...
