    What would cause video brightness to change constantly?

    As you can see in the attach video, the brightness constantly goes darker and then at some point lightens up again. Could this be a firmware issue? The camera is a IPC-T5442TM-AS-6mm with a very old wildlife detecting firmware (DH_IPC-HX4XXX...

    Help training a model, batch and epochs #s?

    When I'm (re)training a model after adding more images to the dataset should I use --weights yolov5s.pt again, like I did originally? or would using --weights best.pt continue to improve/build off the existing model? (Obviously, I dont really understand what the pretrained yolov5s.pt model is. lol)

    Blue Iris UI3

    I usually use UI3 on my phone and if I'm viewing a single camera I constantly find myself trying to swipe left or right to scroll between the other cameras. Is there a way of enabling that or any chance of adding it? Thanks

    Dahua IPC EASY unbricking / recovery over TFTP

    If you go back a few pages and find the working link for the files (originally from the OP), with the guide it's all pretty clear... You copy the commands into the commands.txt, run a .bat file which creates another .txt file in the folder you'll extract the fw files in. Then it's just launch...

    Dahua IPC EASY unbricking / recovery over TFTP

    Option 2 will work for you. You can flash the camera remotely while it's installed (without bringing it back to your computer). For safety, unplug your other cameras. Follow the PDF guide setting up the IP addresses on your computer. With your computer already plugged into the switch and the...

    Sounds good, thank you. 100K images is insane!

    Help training a model, batch and epochs #s?

    Yeah, it could be yolov5m.pt, my model is 3x the size of yours (the same size difference as yolov5s.pt vs yolov5m.pt). Lol please go easy on me, I don't know what any of these graphs means. Here is the original with only 3 val and test pictures: I reran the training with yolov5s.pt and 25...

    Help training a model, batch and epochs #s?

    Very cool, thank you for the advice! Any idea why the CPU usage would be so much higher with my own model (with I'm assuming few images) than yours?

    Help training a model, batch and epochs #s?

    Wow, I just put the model in service this morning and I'm already seeing some pretty impressive results! Of course Deer are defintely over represented in the model lol. (Again, "best.pt" is just the default name of the model.) The only model to identify a deer. The only model to correctly...

    Help training a model, batch and epochs #s?

    I'm looking train my own custom model, but I'm struggling through it lol. Following the ultralytics tutorial (Train Custom Data), I have about 1000 images labeled and exported with roboflow. After some trial and error I successfully ran the train.py script that seems to work and produces a...

    Using Spotter Cameras to direct a PTZ where to look in an NVR or Blue Iris and setting a spotter cam as a priority in Blue Iris

    In case anyone in future is looking to do this, it was actually simpler than I was making it. Rather than a "Web request or MQTT," I used a "Do Command > Trigger" from the Actions > On alert... menu using an Extern/ONVIF trigger in the Action setting. The PTZ camera now triggers only after CPAI...

    Using Spotter Cameras to direct a PTZ where to look in an NVR or Blue Iris and setting a spotter cam as a priority in Blue Iris

    I'm not sure if I should hijack this thread or create a new one, but it might be helpful to other's here anyway... I'm looking to cut down on the number of cancelled alerts from the PTZ camera if for whatever reason there's nothing of interest found on my spotter cameras when they trigger. I...

    CodeProject.AI Version 2.0

    Interesting, thank you. I was just going off the CPAI module description, that described the .NET module for CPU users and the 6.2 module for GPU users, but I'll try switching it up.

    CodeProject.AI Version 2.0

    I think the first screenshot shows it enabled, and the 3rd screenshot "info" also shows it enabled with more details (cuda, etc.) In BI > AI, it says Use GPU.

    I just switched to the GPU version of CPAI. Getting some wild results lots of "nothingness" dected as dog's and cats with 60-70%+ confidence, but also some good results. I realize the AI/the models are not perfect but hopefully get better with time. Right now, I've got it set it: 50%...

    4.0 AI New models IPC-HX5XXX-Volt_MultiLang_PN_Stream3_V2.800.0000000.11.R.191230

    Thank you but I think that's a actually a different firmware. My link got screwed up, but according to Andy's post here (IPC-HX4XXX-Volt_MultiLang_PN_Stream3_V2.800.0000000.11.R.191230) (and just confirmed in the HWID file in the fw you sent), the HX4XXX version is for the fixed focal length...

    Any chance someone has a copy of this firmware they could share? I would like to test animal detection stuff with it lol. The HX4XXX version is readily available, but this version is no where to be found. Thanks

    Detecting wildlife with Dahua cameras

    On a side note, using the Dahua IPC EASY unbricking / recovery over TFTP method, I attempted flashing the DH_IPC-HX5XXX-Volt_MultiLang_NP_Stream3_V2.800.0000000.10.R.191118 FW you mention in the OP so many times this weekend. While the T5442T-ZE (turret) is not officially supported the rest of...

    Detecting wildlife with Dahua cameras

    Yeah, this is detecting animals on technically, I guess, a 5442 varifocal (IPC-HFW5442E-Z4E) but the FW doesn't work on the 5442 varifocal turret... It looks like it works on 5442 varifocal bullet, dome, the 5442-Z4E (bullet) and the (2MP) 5231-Z12E (bullet) It's this firmware: AI 4.0 latest...

    Detecting wildlife with Dahua cameras

    Just to clarify this Z4E is 54XX series? (in case there are a couple different models, but it's a IPC-HFW5442E-Z4E. The Z12E is a 52XX). But yeah, still impressively sensitive.
