    Stupid question but I have to ask

    Thanks. I read this on redit. They also said over there that when the camera detects motion it sends a signal to BI to register it. I'm testing that out now. I can easily zone out the tree in the camera but I don't see where this is possible in BI.

    Stupid question but I have to ask

    Which does the motion detection, BI or the camera itself? I'm trying to solve a problem I have with motion detection. I have a tree in the camera's view that, when the wind blow, it triggers a motion event. I want to exclude the tree from the detection area but first I need to the answer to the...

    AI has a way to go

    According to AI, this is a person. If you use your imagination it sorta looks like a Teletubbie, but a person? No. Earlier in the day I walked across the yard and it flagged me as Unknown. LOL

    Mini-Review - 5442-ZE-S3 AKA T54IR-ZE-S3 - Replacement to 5442-ZE

    I have the gray UI so it must be a S2. I also found the smart IR check box so I guess that answers my question. Thanks EDIT - I updated the firmware using the Smart IR version and now I have a much improved image. Go figure. :)

    Can't get v6 running

    BI 6 has been running perfectly for me since the initial snafu. The fix I posted above came from BI support, it fixed my problem and thus is legit beyond question. And for the record, I'm running BI on Win 11 Enterprise and it's a totally different animal from Home and Pro.

    Camera not returning to preset 1 after motion detect tracking

    Camera is PTZ425DB-AT. I DL'ed and installed AImodelpack.exe and it seems to be working but after a detect the camera remains pointed at where it stopped. In most cases this renders tracking useless. I need it to return to preset one after a detect. I can find no such setting. Any help much...

    Can't get v6 running

    The reason I didn't uninstall BI5 first is I wanted to make sure v6 worked. I didn't want to be without my cams. I still haven't uninstalled it but I will in a couple of days, having run into problems initially I still a little gun shy. I will give kudos to BI tech support, they've always been...

    Can't get v6 running

    Thanks. :) Blue Iris support got me straightened out. It seems that I forgot to stop the v5 service before running v6. After stopping it, v6 ran as it should and the 2 Dahua cams started working so all is well. blue Support didn't know what the $9.99 was for either so apparently AI strikes out...

    Can't get v6 running

    I've run into several issue and now I'm left with a program that automatically closes after a few second. Also, 2 of my Dahua cams have stopped working and I can't troubleshoot unless I can get v6 to stay running. Also, i saw no medntion of the $9.99 I need to pay according to Google AI. I've...

    Did Dahua go out of business?

    As far as I can tell they are genuine Dahua even tho they're not branded as such.
