Deepstack - AI tool - Agent DVR (Blue Iris) Trigger Help

After running a RPi3 for about 5 years I started to get a failing SD card and regular crashes. I finaly took the step to move my setup to an NCU and run my setup on an NCU.

Now with more processing power and memory I have moved my attention to improving my CCTV system.

I found this video (from rob at the hookup) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fwoonl5JKgo and tried to follow the setup

Although it claimed free there was bule iris to buy. (maybe I will but not wanting to pay if I don’t need to I set of looking for a free option)

So I installed Agent DVR which with homeassistant integration and lots of features looked like a good option.

So I installed Deepstack on a windows docker (could not make it work using portainer)

Installed the AI tool from https://ipcamtalk.com/threads/tool-tutorial-free-ai-person-detection-for-blue-iris.37330/

and set about trying to integrate Agent DVR insted of Blue Iris

So what works. Cameras setup in Agent DVR and save an image to a folder. Ai tool detects the images and passes it to deepstack.
and gets an analised image back.

This is where it stops. The AI Tool can send a trigger URL when it detects a specified object. Following the video this is fed back to blue iris to trigger the recording of the HD stream until motion stops.

Can this be fed back to Agent DVR to do the same thing and trigger the recording? What would the trigger URL need to be?

If not maybe the trigger URL could be a web hook that can use an automation to triger the record from the Agent DVR service (Theis service does already work)

Can’t help you with AgentDVR but I’m using : Blue Iris + AITool + Deestack on a decidated Win10 LTSC NUC and it works great.
In AITool, you can find a button “Actions” where are listed all available actions when an event is raised.

I think you might find your answer on this page no?

Yep me too (Blue Iris + AITool + Deepstack on windows docker ). For about 2 weeks now. Takes some time to get the right settings on BI for each camera zone. I have 3 time profiles right now, dawn,day and night. Each has unique motion settings due to the light changes etc.
AI tool using the fork vorloncd.

I would recommend that you try Node-deepstackai-trigger (https://github.com/danecreekphotography/node-deepstackai-trigger).This would replace AI tools and it has the window that is used as an image in docker, that is, everything in a linux environment… I am using the solution like this: Agent NVR (Motion detection) + node-deepstackai-trigger (Trigger MQTT to hass) + Hass.

I am testing Node-deepstackai-trigger now…For now it’s working very well.
