Blue Iris

DeepStack do not start by BI
When I click "Start Now" I got "Could not start check path
the Path on is C:\DeepStack
Port 81


I open the CMD and type below and works:
C:\Deepstack\deepstack --VISION-FACE True --PORT 81

Port 81 is normally the UI3 instance. Try 82, or try netstat -an|findstr :82 without DeepStack running to see if anything is on it first.

I have the same issue on 3 installs.

All 3 are using Deepstack on port 82, and will run if use command line start
deepstack --VISION-DETECTION True --PORT 82

IP being used is the 127.0.0.1 , port is 82, and location is default c:\deepstack

BI seems to know when it's running as will change to "stop" option, but if not running start gives the error above on initial forum.

**Update**
Decided to go ahead and try a new deepstack release ... and that did the trick. It was an unstable release
likely crashing and not starting as it didn't handle the mode correctly. Anyways ... updating all the test installs
and now seems to be autostarting via BI and possibly even restarting if not running???

I would like to know when blue iris starts or Auto starts (Which is working) What flags or parameters does it send to Deep stack?

As far as I am aware, when DS is set to start with BI, the only thing it does is turn on object detection via:
Where XXX is the port number. If you didn't have auto start with BI checked, you would run the above from a command line to enable it, and then you could monitor the DS output in the command window. When Sam did the Advanced - Deepstack + Blue Iris post in Tips and Tricks, he basically walks one through how to do it manually first to make sure everything is working. Ostensibly, that's what BI uses to start DS.
