Strange ... the filename and location that appeared in the dialog you posted earlier doesn't match with the filename format that your camera screen shot shows?
When you look at your folders new, storage and alerts, are the files in the right folders and do they have filenames that match the format specified? if so, I wonder how this dialog cam up with what it did? What originated that earlier screen shot ?
the files does appear to be in the right folder and with the same filename as shown in Blue iris

Where is this folder and how is the mp4 being created?

Yes. We need to all be on that page with some additional clarification provided to get much further with this.

Where is the folder with the .dat and .mp4 files in the screenshot? And how are those files being created?

Did you recently change the option from mp4 to BVR?

Good point.
And where is the naming convention coming from for the mp4s?
It initially looked like \Indkeorsel and \Baghave1 were directories instead of filenames before it dawned on me that they're probably located in Alerts.
But yeah, how? Unless they were originally created as mp4s to begin with or subsequently converted by whatever process before being saved to Alerts..., and poorly at that. And aren't .dat files only put in 'Alerts' as AI files.
Perhaps a poor implementation/integration of CPAI is in the weeds here somewhere?
Definitely beyond my pay grade so I'll just sit back and watch..., and hopefully learn something new that I probably don't want to know anyway.
Perhaps this is just yet another new feature? LOL

H, the .dat and .mp4 files are located under "C:\BlueIris\Alerts"
and .jpg and .bvr are under "C:\BlueIris\New"
Here are the settings from the camera:

hmm you may be right, it could perhaps be CPAI which is causing these error/issues, as i haven dont any changes only updated BI and CPAI, why did i not think about this. i was only focusing on BI as the issue started after the jump to 5.9.2 but forgot that i together with BI also updated CPAI..
I will try to see if there is anything in the logs for CPAI
But the part that doenst make sense for me is, how come all of the clips and alerts work as soon as i do a" Delete and regenerate" until a new alert are created, then i get the same error on all of the clips even the ones that did work after a "delete and regerate"

Is the 'Add to alerts list' set to Export to MP4 files for AI purposes? If so, how are those parameters set up to play an MP4 clip instead of a BVR?
Change the add to the alerts list setting to 'Database only' to see if that fixes the immediate problem. If so, then figure out how the AI things are hosed up.

I think that i read somewhere that for CPAI to work it should export to MP4/BVR, but will give it a try with the "Database Only"
