I'm still holding out for @algertc implementing the rule engines he previewed several posts back.

I'm not sure what we can do to convince him to spend time getting it over the finish line. I just keep...
I'm not sure what you are asking... Blue Iris doesn't have direct access to the ALPR database so doesn't know the associated tag or name.
That was the point of it coming from ALPR that it can enrich the output with stuff it knows.
One thing you could do is to find one instance of the old (retired) plate in the plates read table and treat it as a correction to the new plate. Toggle the setting for doing all plate reads and they'll now all point to the new plate.
So if it was 7OLD777 and is now 8NEW888, then all the...
I really hope you'll reconsider and add a table of common misreads to each known plate and add the ability to autocorrect the plates.
The main use case I have is not an error with the recognition. I have few neighbors who have license plate frames that cover the bottom of the letters. Think E...
This looks pretty neat and can't wait (I mean I can wait, but I don't want to).
Is this in the new architecture application you're working on? I'm also hoping there will be a way to run both the old and new versions concurrently (I assume with separate databases and separate ports but hopefully...
Given I don't have Home Assistant, it would mean adding yet another thing to the box to get intelligent notifications. BI is pretty dumb in this respect. I was hoping that it could be a module in ALPR DB directly at some point.
My biggest annoyance are:
1. System jumps back to login screen constantly when editing plates, searching, etc.
2. Date and time filters don't correctly account for local time. It seems to calculate a UTC date, or hour but then not show the correct local times for that date. And hours can be...
@algertc is apparently pretty busy but I too hope we see some of the outstanding items addressed in the near future. I guess we were spoiled by the rapid pace early on.
As I understand it, when you correct a plate, it is also marked as confirmed. You'll see it turn green meaning it is confirmed as correct and can be used by AI for training.
The "To confirm" field should only contain a list of objects that are supported by the model. In your case, that's "dog", "cat", etc. The model doesn't have an object called "wildlife" so you wouldn't list it.
BI then has three lists it uses to internally mark the clip as containing a vehicle...
Quick question. Are you having a single camera do object detection and ALPR? If so, I highly recommend creating a "clone" of the camera and separating the function of each copy. For the master, do object detection. For the clone, only do LPR detection. Only send alerts from the LPR copy of the...
Possibly... Did you try sending yourself an email alert and including &JSON in the message? It should have all the details from the call to the ALPR module. If it doesn't, then something is messed up. Can you add an email and post the JSON contents?
Make sure you have the correct call. Don't put the &JSON in quotes after the ai_dump parameter.
{ "ai_dump":&JSON, "Image":"&ALERT_JPEG", "camera":"&CAM", "ALERT_PATH": "&ALERT_PATH", "ALERT_CLIP": "&ALERT_CLIP", "timestamp":"&ALERT_TIME" }
It looks like your &JSON is empty.
If still having...
The license-plate custom model is to find a rectangular region consistent with a license plate. It does not, on it's own, figure out the letters and digits on the plate.
Putting ALPR DB aside, are you getting plates read in BI correctly first?
OODPCVS = Overview, Outline, Discern, Perceive, Characterize, Validate, Scrutinize.
I don't know why there need to be 7 levels, especially since we can just say "Enhance" and get the Scrutinize level of video. ;)
Any chance this will also allow the adding of a YOLO11 object detection module? I know you were trying to get Chris Maunder to add it to the CPAI codebase before it got stalled. Selfishly I'd like to test my delivery models on YOLO11.
There isn't much reason to have both New and Storage on the same machine otherwise you are spending all your time copying and deleting.
Most people set it up so their large HDD is New and then delete when that is about 90% full. Storage folder is then unnecessary.
As for your CPU usage, that...
