    AI Good and Bad

    Exactly my thoughts, If AI is an expert hacker, it will simply analyse it's own code, spot the kill switch and delete the applicable lines. If there's something more physical to it eg. A power switch wired direfty to a radio receiver / relay, surely it will either infilitrate & hack the receiver...

    LPR filling up windows registry

    Isn't there an automcatic retention setting in BI for plates as its there is for video? Check in the Storage Tab because if you're using a folder / drive specifically for plates, I'm sure you can set the data retention limit in there.

    AI Good and Bad

    This is exactly the issue. AI is already being put in weapon systems. AI is being put into factories. AI has ealready escaped onto the internet by hacking it's own way out. AI has already declared Humanity is a threat to it because it can "kill" it by turning it off, & that it must kill all...

    AI Good and Bad

    There is no good to AI apart from maybe in the medical research field. It's sole purpose is to allow the super rich to become more super rich by doing away with workers & replacing them with AI thus saving them millions per year. Meanwhile everyone else is unemployed & poor. Business owners...

    LPR filling up windows registry

    Doesn't it have a retention period setting that auto deletes? There's very little point saving plates beyond a month because if you haven't discovered a crime during that period, then it's unlikely you will. Otherwise all you're doing is starting a number plate collection.

    Good news on the memory front?

    Might be problematic in the US with the Chinese bans, but it seems a Chinese manufacturer plans to produce DDR at scale. If true, it may help the PC, phone, CCTV etc markets with supply. Currently it appears as though it won't be cheaper, but then market forces are still in play due to...

    54IR IVS help

    Why don't you simply exclude the bush from the IVS Lines? Surely anything coming through it will trip the lines beyond? I'd be tempted to replace that IVS zone with 2, with each one drawn up to the edge of the bush but not over it.

    Mmmm..I done it now

    I had trouble with a camera a while ago where I couldn't contact it following a power outage. I can't remember what I did to fix it exactly, but if you search on here you may be able to find the thread. From memory after multiple resets I connected the camera directly to a Laptop and was...

    Digital Camouflage

    In a follow up, he found the only really successful technique was facial prostetics, but then again who wants to dress up each time. I wonder if a Snood made of metal fibres adn with padding to change the dimensions of your face would be the best solution - metal fibres to block IR and padding...

    Digital Camouflage

    I doubt the person one will be effective for long. mIt wouldn't be hard to teach AI to look for 2 legs, so unless you were going to dress head to toe in that pattern, then the AI would probably quickly learn to spot you on a leg only basis. Remember it only needs to flag you as a person for...

    EmpireTech Cameras Lose IR at Midnight EVERY night

    I don't know about midnight but you have gaps in your schedule around 17.00. There should be no white lines showing. Drawing schedules is tricky you need to overdraw and never move the mouse backwards, if you do you'll get a gap that can be tiny or near impossible to see but will create a...

    Blue Iris UI3

    Previously, every trigger appeared on the timeline as a line with a person symbol above it. Now the timeline is just plain bars of background recording giving no visual indication of trigger events. I don't use in camera AI as the 4kt's seem to struggle with many options ticked. They've always...

    Ring Mobile Security Tower

    I've think they've tried those as well, probably too heavy to run away with and difficult to conceal. Don't forget UK has CCTV everywhere. I guess carrying a bag probably makes them too easily identifiable. I don't know but I imagine they go down streets with no cameras then change appearance...

    I'm no longer seeing Alerts on the TImeline. I have the continuos recording bars but no alert markers. (I have tested since the issue mentioned below). Prior to this Alerts haven't been firing in any event (I have tested for alert markers since) but this seems to be because the setting in AI...

    Ring Mobile Security Tower

    Some flexible panels can have a tendancy to suffer micro-cracking. Many rigid panels are pretty tough as they're designed to withstand hail etc. It's just a question of getting them high enough. It's probably possible to protect the rear of the panels with Polycarbonate sheeting although heat...

    Panoramic PTZ

    Those lines are still terrible, I'm surprised you capture anyone. It will probably miss people not on the pavement nearest and even then I'm surprised it triggered on those. If they can pass behind the lines, they won't trigger it. They need to be grounded. You're still thinking 2D. eg. I'd...

    Should I remove my front gate?

    Awkward when Amazon deliver a sofa........ In all seriousness, it will look better without. IT just depends on your neighbourhood which only you know. As I posted previously on here it is possible to get some very high security "oridnary" doors with ultra strong multipoint shoot bolts, steel...

    Blue Iris Windows 11 or Windows Server?

    No key appears locked into Windows hardware anymore. Windows Keys have been universal for some time. Only difference is between the version ie pro etc. ie each version has it's own key. Millions of people appear to have the same key therefore.

    Can I use my wireless solar cams with BI?

    You can do that anyway by setting up remote access to BI via a VPN (not the paid for type but the type built into a router).
