Re: No Alerts, No Trigger Events in timeline

Anybody had any luck in figuring out what is going on here? I just tried to update to the latest build (5.4.9.9) and it's still screwing up. It even says "Alert adjustments and fixes" in the release notes, so I was hopeful. I've now rolled back to 5.4.8.2 and everything is back to how I'm ...

Re: Camera not creating an Alert

I wonder why alerts were working before this last round of updates? I am in the same boat where the last update broke alerts. I have always had "Add to alerts list: Database Only" set on the "Trigger" tab, and then on the Alerts tab, I have only "External" checked since...

Re: Blue iris app chromecast

I had the same issue... Casting was only available on some cameras and not others.

I believe that you have to have audio enabled for casting to work (and this is an issue with Chromecast, not BI).

I just enable audio in BI but disable it on the camera itself for ones that I want to not record sound.

They seem to be on to something here:

Will have to check this out in the morning and see if that's my problem too.

Re: No Alerts, No Trigger Events in timeline

This started happening for me too. The only thing that fixed it was rolling back to a previous update. I found 5.4.8.2 from 6/19/2021 works again.

I'm going to hold off on BI updates for a while. No reason to update when everything is working. Seems to be causing problems often these days.

Re: Trouble with zone crossing and motion detection

Got similar problems and i like to test some AI system. Which if the mentioned ones can be suggested? It has to run offline and it should have an easy setup and BlueIris integration :-) I couldn't recommend AI Tools more... it solved every problem I had. If you can run the DeepQuestAI docker on som...

Re: Trouble with zone crossing and motion detection

I ended up giving AITools a go and I'm actually quite happy with the results. We keep the porch lights on, which means the doorbell camera never goes into night/IR mode. The driveway cam also never shifts to IR mode due to the street lights. I set up DeepQuestAI as a Docker container on my UnRAID se...

Re: Trouble with zone crossing and motion detection

I did have AITools configured but have since for the time being as it was having problems accurately detecting people in the evening when my cam go into black and white mode with IR. I’ve tried loads of things to minimise false alerts but now just put up with them. Shadows and headlights in my fron...

Re: Trouble with zone crossing and motion detection

Ideally we also need profiles for WINDY CONDITIONS! Then we could connect our weather stations to BI and ease up on the detection rules when necessary. I have a setup now that works very well on non-windy days, but when the wind kicks up, all hell breaks loose. Shadows be damned! I totally agree, i...

Re: Trouble with zone crossing and motion detection

Hmm, interesting. I can think of a couple of things you might want to try. 1) Disable the high-definition detection 2) Clear all and Re-draw your zones. There seems to be a gap between your Zones A and B. Try overlapping them? I did try it both ways (overlapping and w/ a few pixels in between). Cur...
