Spent money renewing support license for Blue Iris 6 for the builtin ai image recognition, but it's complete trash (programming.dev)

Keeps alerting me to empty boxes of 'person' detected with 90+% confidence. So frustrated right now.

I've been using Frigate for years. The built in object detection (without subscription) is excellent and very near 100% accurate. Initial setup was somewhat of challenge though. It's free (donations encouraged) or a low cost subscription for more advanced detection.

    It's not just more advanced detection, they will fine tune models for you if you upload images of true/false positives/negatives.

    I also like Frigate and it has some integrations with Home Assistant as well.

    Alternatively may be worth trying Shinobi. I tried Shinibi a while ago. I liked how it worked, but had some random UI bugs in the release versions. At that time the UI was being rewritten and while some things were improved in the new (in development at the time) UI, I had other bugs in the new UI (again it was in active development and not considered stable when in used it) and switched to Frigate. This was years ago, but I think I'm going to give it another try as I generally liked the UI and features over Frigate, but Frigate has been reliable.

    Every year or so I try to go to Frigate from Blue Iris so I can get rid of my last Windows box. But functionally they aren't in the same league. Just the PTZ controls on Frigate drive me back to BI within minutes, besides all the rest of the features.

    Some day...

    Have you had a look at AgentDVR recently?
