    How do protected alerts affect BVR files?

    It's defintely been an issue for a while (and probably why we've had so few alerts recently...). According to the logs, the locked number has slowly been increasing since at least September (when I started saving log files). Any chance like I asked originally, it has to do with Protected Alert...

    How do protected alerts affect BVR files?

    Ouch! So really starting from scratch :eek: Thank you for the reply, I'll troubleshoot a little bit longer (hoping to avoid it), but will probably do it..lol Might try just deleting and regenerating the db first per @jaydeel 's suggestion in another convo.

    How do protected alerts affect BVR files?

    I just noticed the following BI Warning. I'm assuming this is a continuation of the above issue. Only a warning, no errors in BI. Storage looks ok. Things seem to be recording ok maybe? We have seemed to have fewer alerts the past week or so.. I'm wondering if things aren't saving as they should...

    True, ty for the suggestion. I guess really I could just do it one by one as they pop up in BI... rather than trying to tackle them all at once.

    Lol and I know this has nothing to do with you, but there are just so many of them and to manually have to configure them for every camera seems insane :eek::eek:

    Funny that I google "RuleEngine" and really only find posts by you @jaydeel lol. Just wondering, the following is what I have in my ONVIF Events. To get rid of the extraneous RuleEngine/LineDetector/Crossed; I need to manually delete the {EVENT} in everyone of these rules listed for all 16...

    How do protected alerts affect BVR files?

    A few months ago I reconfigured my entire database to match @SouthernYankee 's standard allocation post. At the time, I also relocated my alerts folder to my C: to keep it from growing and interfering with my two storage drives. But, somewhere I screwed up and still overallocated my drives (98%...

    BI DAT Tool - Filter/inspect/delete Blue Iris AI-analysis 'DAT' files; Extract JPG images and JSON results

    No problem, thanks for all the help! I got the script and will take a look as I soon I can.

    BI DAT Tool - Filter/inspect/delete Blue Iris AI-analysis 'DAT' files; Extract JPG images and JSON results

    Same result without -NoInspect. Again, the Alert Memo is Blue Iris is "nothing found" as shown in the earlier screenshot. FWIW, I have "spider" in the "AI: To cancel" field (although it never reached the 70% min-confidence to actually identify one). I don't confirm or cancel vehicles...(But...

    BI DAT Tool - Filter/inspect/delete Blue Iris AI-analysis 'DAT' files; Extract JPG images and JSON results

    Yeah, something must be screwy because that command does not work for me. It returns No DAT files found via the requested filters (which is not accurate). This DAT file specifically is a cancelled alert with "nothing found" in the alert memo. As you can see, I can't get the tool to read the...

    BI DAT Tool - Filter/inspect/delete Blue Iris AI-analysis 'DAT' files; Extract JPG images and JSON results

    Sorry, I'm just able to get back to this and take a real look... Ok, I was just trying to filter/process a cancelled alert by adding an explanation point to the alert memo (i.e. "nothing found!") (when the AI misses something entirely) and it wasn't processed. I think because the tool ignores...

    Help training a model, batch and epochs #s?

    Didn't want to clog up the BI DAT tool thread, but I've racked my brain with this very problem so I'll ask/continue it here lol. I've spent a lot of time wondering what aspect ratio/sized images are best to train my model on....Here is an original image and 3 examples preprocessing trying to...

    BI DAT Tool - Filter/inspect/delete Blue Iris AI-analysis 'DAT' files; Extract JPG images and JSON results

    Hi, so I'm playing around with this trying to find the right command before automating. It's scanning everything properly and I'm getting the hang of it lol. One issue, Alert Memos don't seem to work with cancelled alerts? Whether the BI alert memo is "nothing found," or "occupied," or even a...

    Nice, can't wait to get this automated. It's really going to help improve the accuracy of my model and super efficiently at that! Thank you

    BI DAT Tool - Filter/inspect/delete Blue Iris AI-analysis 'DAT' files; Extract JPG images and JSON results

    It may have been my fault entirely...I unchecked everything for the BI User not understanding what access it needed. Now I'm guessing it needs at least View' Clips :facepalm: It might have worked otherwise.

    BI DAT Tool - Filter/inspect/delete Blue Iris AI-analysis 'DAT' files; Extract JPG images and JSON results

    Ah, ok, I was trying to use it on local copies of the DAT files on my computer, while giving it webserver access via VPN. I was probably screwing something up in the process. Very cool, can't wait! Thank you!

    BI DAT Tool - Filter/inspect/delete Blue Iris AI-analysis 'DAT' files; Extract JPG images and JSON results

    Any idea why editing the memo in BI to add a "!" isn't working? It shows up in BI properly, but when I scan the DAT files with your tool it doesn't show up. Also, Windows also doesn't the change the "Date Modified" of the DAT file, so I'm guessing the change isn't saving properly? I tried...

    BI DAT Tool - Filter/inspect/delete Blue Iris AI-analysis 'DAT' files; Extract JPG images and JSON results

    Wow, there's a lot of information here. I guess I just have to play around with the tool until I get the hang of it lol. Question, what is the webserver access used for? I see the "NOTE: ACCOUNT MUST BE ADMIN TO POST TO CUSTOM MESSAGES TO THE BLUE IRIS LOGFILE," but not sure what it really...

    Detecting wildlife with Dahua cameras

    It's been a while but I wanted to share a video of SD5A425XA-HNR PTZ actually doing some autotracking using the settings here: Bobcat autotrack It was nice to see the autotracking actually work on animals after the camera has been creeping out my mom following her around the property the past...

    Confirmed AI Marked-Up images only

    Right, I was actually looking for the other 20-30 images used by the AI aside from the one confirmed jpg saved (for training my own model based on images that maybe the AI missed or misidentified before confirming one). Anyway here was Ken's reply on how to extract the images: (In the end...

    Confirmed AI Marked-Up images only

    I'm on an older version of BI so maybe something has changed, but I emailed BI support a couple months ago inquring about getting the Alert images used for AI processing (as seen in the AI status tab) and was told they aren't actually saved anywhere. Although, helpfully, he did provide info to...

    What would cause video brightness to change constantly?

    I figured out the problem in case anyone runs into the same thing in the future. It was in fact related to PTZ presets changing the Day/Night picture settings. Since the camera is also a PTZ spotter camera, moving the PTZ to Preset 1 when triggered, it also inadvertently set itself to [PTZ]...

    What would cause video brightness to change constantly?

    Fortuantely, (as usual) the issue appears to user error lol. After deleting the camera and adding it back the brightness issue disappeared. It returned after importing the original camera settings though. Now to just painstankingly reconfigure the camera one tab at a time until I track down the...

    What would cause video brightness to change constantly?

    I'll give that a shot... FWIW this is what the BI status window shows: Althought the status window does seem to be missing a lot of alerts.. Unless the # shown is combining them?

    What would cause video brightness to change constantly?

    No, but I actually just figured something out... It must be related to when the camera triggers. It occurs at the exact time of the alert (according to BI), and lasts the 30 seconds I have it set to "End trigger unless re-triggered." I didn't notice it at first because I have BI set to a 3 sec...

    What would cause video brightness to change constantly?

    Day/night profiles are set up correctly (and configured with PTZ calls). Manual/customized range shutter speed, etc. I forgot (it's been year since configuring this camera) is that the internal IR is actaully turned off completely. In the beginning of the video when it's bright, that's entirely...

    What would cause video brightness to change constantly?

    Yeah there are a couple of other cameras (including a PTZ you can see swing) and IR floodlight. I guess it could be auto adjusting the brightness to the IR light swinging into view from the PTZ... I have configured it manually with day/night settings, but I'll double check them this evening...
