Full ALPR Database System for Blue Iris!

Hi all,

A few things have piled up over the past several months:

-I moved homes and don't have an active LPR setup to test against yet.

- I changed jobs

- I somehow developed a major endocrine disorder that causes a whole bunch of really gnarly issues, including significant cardiac stress. 167/107 BP when discovered, which is insane. Had no idea that this existed and is something that could just happen. Should be fine and not super relevant as a blocker here, but was a huge WTF.

- This is a good cautionary tale to not minimize or put off dealing with out-of-range results if u get bloodwork done. Had to learn the hard way on this one.


- I took on a project at a university on the east coast running from February through April, which involved a bunch of weekend travel flying back and forth.

- A separate commitment takes up most of my evenings through the end of June.

Ive almost tempted myself to go finish the code a few times as a mode of procrastination avoiding other actual obligations, but this is a single-maintainer open source tool serving a fairly niche audience, and unfortunately does get pushed down the list. The timing with the pending update is pretty shit, and I’d be annoyed if I were expecting it sooner — but there's only one of me, and only so many hours in a day.

@algertc Hows it going? Anything we can do to help?


And if anyone wants to vibe code a pull request and share a short screen recording of it working, I'd be glad to review and get it merged.

Pls post here first if u are someone who wants to try to do this. Will avoid issues later on if I can provide the current progress.

Sorry to hear about your situation!!! You've been a great asset to our little community, so we all wish you well.

I did vibe code two quick fixes to some issues, which I posted here awhile back:


I didn't want to bother you with it at the time, but since you asked, here you go!
