    GDID and Windows 11

    Or then again, maybe not (as promising as that sounds, Linux adoption is unlikely to have actually doubled in a very short period). https://www.pcworld.com/article/3204830/linux-didnt-actually-hit-10-percent-market-share-blame-bots.html

    How can the IPCAM Store be sold out of BI software?

    Try this way, the link says it is BlueIris V5, but it should allow upgrades to BI V6 for the first year of support: https://amcrest.com/blue-iris-downloadable-version-5.html

    False negatives with AI in BI 6

    I have my cameras setup with 3-4 pre-trigger images and 6-8 post-trigger images and that generally works quite well, but I can't claim that those are optimum for every situation, you might need to experiment. Definitely keep the box checked for reanalysis on continued motion triggers. Sadly...

    False negatives with AI in BI 6

    First thing to try is to lengthen the times between each analysis to at least 500ms or preferably 750ms (I would even experiment with 1 second), especially given that your average analysis time is running 337ms (potential for backlog of analyses). Also, no person is going to cross this scene in...

    How about a brand new American-made truck for $21,500?

    The project does look promising, but is a long ways from actual deliveries, so it is a bit early to judge. Also, while many of the goals are noble, I suspect there is some wiggle room in the "American made" stance that they are projecting: American "designed and assembled" doesn't mean that all...

    How about a brand new American-made truck for $21,500?

    Sadly the American public has bought into the idea that pickup trucks need to "LOOK" big and burly/manly (MORE POWER, heh heh), but in reality the bed size is often ridiculously small and short. We used to get by just fine in the 80's and first part of the 90's with overall (physically) smaller...

    Should I remove my front gate?

    The only problem I see with this suggestion is expecting the Amazon drivers to exert any extra time or effort beyond the absolute minimum, aka: an expectation of common sense being applied, which in my experience has been quite rare.

    Should I remove my front gate?

    As others pointed out, from a true burglary security perspective, it doesn't address the much easier path of breaking a window. At first glance, I like it in the sense that it does cut the risk from the latest youth TikTok challenge; a nasty variant of "ding-ding ditch", where instead of...

    Good deals on Reolink Refurbished ($70 PoE Doorbells) and much more at their eBay store

    Sadly only the black version (native landscape view), not the white version (native portrait view). Bummer that those seem completely gone everywhere.

    What the Heck?

    I wouldn't call it awful looking so much as uninspired: it's basically a minor variation of virtually all the other Tesla sedans. Then there is the Cybertruck, which looks like what a 5 year old would draw if you asked him to draw a pickup truck.

    Use a clone to have two different IVS areas alert differently?

    Hmm...I haven't tried this, as I rarely use the filters for Alerts, but it could work. In the ONVIF details/classifications continue to setup the "outer" (less important) events as "Triggers" (the default), but in the same dialog reclassify the more important (closer) events as "Confirmed...

    Use a clone to have two different IVS areas alert differently?

    No problem, and I agree that the solution is less than obvious. The key is knowing that every Alert has one or more associated labels (aka: Memos in BI terms), and that you can "manually" manipulate those Memos in this manner and control what takes place with them in the Alert, Action set dialog...

    Use a clone to have two different IVS areas alert differently?

    Not sure why you mentioned an nvr: I don't use one either (just the cameras directly to BI). The IVS rules are named and created in the camera GUI directly. From the top: 1) Configure your IVS rules in the camera GUI, and be sure to re-name them to something useful and recognizable (DO NOT use...

    Use a clone to have two different IVS areas alert differently?

    Half of this setup needs to be done in the camera GUI: you need to first create names for the IVS rules "in-camera". In my case, they start with the word "Sidewalk" for zones that I want the camera to record on (officially, these still technically result in an "Alert" in BI terms, which is what...

    Blue Iris Updates - Official Thread

    Interesting; I haven't seen that in such a direct manner, but you may want to send your results to the BI developer (Ken). With empirical evidence showing this kind of degradation of performance, he is usually willing to listen and make adjustments as needed.

    What app for my phone owrks

    You might also try through Amcrest here: https://amcrest.com/blue-iris-downloadable-version-5.html It shows as version 5, but supposedly includes one year of updates, which should permit you to upgrade to the current version of 6.x.x.x (TBD/YMMV). Only $54.99 through Amcrest.

    Blue Iris Updates - Official Thread

    6.0.5.6 is released. Fixes rare Yellow exclamation point (!) in log (with no corresponding description of error))/Yellow status bar when an Alert event is confirmed/cancelled by some triggering events but overridden by other confirmations.

    AI confirmation settings

    Frankly no, 20 seconds doesn't bother me, and that delay is not even true in every case: sometimes BI will still override and declare an object confirmed before that. In addition, I run simultaneous ONVIF events direct from the cameras, with labels that correspond to regions or zones of high/low...

    AI confirmation settings

    It depends entirely on the application: are you doing ALPR? If so, the timings need to be spaced even tighter/closer together (by quite a bit), but for most general purpose/person/animal/slow moving vehicle (parking lot, driveway, etc.) I would suggest much slower timings, on the order of 750ms...

    Blue Iris Updates - Official Thread

    This is actually a fairly significant update that came about though some long (over a month+) back and forth discussions I had with Ken: in typical fashion, he undersold it in the update notes posted for 6.0.5.0/6.0.5.1. In a nutshell, it allows Action sets (think Push/Pushover alerts) to...

    Not sure if it is released, but Ken notified me that he believes it is resolved in 6.0.5.1.

    Blue Iris Updates - Official Thread

    He likes to post that when an update drops and he discovers it before the update bot shows it here (which clearly only checks once a day in the late afternoon, US time). It's also an easy way to bump up his post count.

    Testing Yolov26s on BI6

    Interesting. I've been following the other (YOLO8 vs. YOLO10) thread where another user mentioned this YOLO26 model and gave some hints on downloading direct from Ultralytics and converting the format, but perhaps you could elaborate or provide a means to directly download the model(s) you are...

    Constant Crashes after v5 to v6 Upgrade (Visual C++ Errors)

    Again, you have not stated clearly if you are doing conventional "file" exclusions or "process" exclusions on those two files in Windows Defender. There is a difference.

    Constant Crashes after v5 to v6 Upgrade (Visual C++ Errors)

    Process exclusions are broader in the sense that they also prevent AV scanning interference with other files (in this case, the BI DB files and other spawned processes external to the previously defined file/folder). The developer of BI (Ken) has specifically requested process exclusions for the...

    Constant Crashes after v5 to v6 Upgrade (Visual C++ Errors)

    We'll have to agree to disagree here: I believed that too (meaning, the adequacy of file and folder exceptions) until BI specifically started to require process exclusions.

    Constant Crashes after v5 to v6 Upgrade (Visual C++ Errors)

    Just to double check: earlier you mentioned setting the antivirus exclusions as PATHS, but in fact a couple of files should also (additionally) be set as PROCESS exclusions: blueiris.exe and blueirisadmin.exe. Subtle but important distinction, you might want to verify that.
