Fisheye dewarp options...

Wasn't sure if I should put this in the cameras section or Blueiris but since it includes both or may even require a different solution alltogether hopefully this is an ok place.

I have two EmpireTech IPC-FE541-AS fisheye cams in Blueiris. In the cameras GUI using IE mode in Edge I can use all the options to dewarp the live view in the camera but there doesn't appear to be any way to export the dewarped view. Inside of Blueiris(currently on 5.9.9.8) I can use the Blueiris dewarp feature on clips but not live view; the dewarp feature on the clips isn't as nice as the dewarp options native on the camera. Does the newer version of Bluriris offer dewarp on live? Or does anyone have any alternative means to export the dewarped view from the camera into Blueiris?

Thank you.
 
BI still only dewarps on playback/export of .bvr clips, not in live view. That has not changed in the 5.9 line.

These EmpireTech/Dahua fisheyes also do not expose a separate dewarped RTSP stream for BI to pull. The cleaner dewarp you see in the camera GUI (and in DMSS) is rendered client-side by the plugin/app, so there is nothing for BI to grab as another profile.

Practical split people use: live dewarp in the camera web UI or DMSS when you need it now, and BI dewarp on clip export when you need a flat clip. If live flat view inside BI is a hard requirement, you need a model that actually publishes dewarped virtual channels over RTSP, which most of the Andy fisheyes do not.
