Good Morning.

I'm running Deepstack on my server computer. I have ran Deepstack in the past and discontinued due to too many "Nothing found". Deepstack is now running fairly well, and I read through the Onboarding section. I've searched the forum trying to find example of how others have tweaked their settings to get accurate Deepstack results.

I tried to get Code Project installed with not good results, so I'm sticking with Deepstack for now. I know that it's not the preferred AI solution.

I would appreciate comments on how my settings look compared to others. Please review the attachments and comment.

I think that I need to add more of the PT files as I only have the "general" one now

Thank you in advance!

I don't think many people use DS any more, in fact I thought it didn't work with new versions of BI5. CPAI is being actively developed so is my choice.
Is DS actually working for you ? I'm sure I read it was disabled if you unticked Object detection.

Thanks Tim.

Yes. working fairly well too. I'm running BI Version 5.8.5.8.

I was hoping that someone could give my setting a look see to help out.

Thank You!

I'm not sure how much will still apply to DS, but the gist of it is to only run one model at a time else it may overload your cpu. To see what IS running, tick "Save Ai analysis details". The next Ai trigger you get will create a DAT file. To open it, hold down CTRL, and double click the Alert video with the trigger. That should open the AI DAT file so that you can see you can see the images used and the info including time stamps and the models used on the left. Have a look which models are running.

From your above screenshots:

1. You have "Default object detection" ticked. That will use a built in model called "Objects" in the DAT file.
2. You have "Use custom models" ticked. That will ALSO use a custom model if one is specified in AI settings for that camera. Possible extra cpu load.
3. Your camera settings show a custom model "general". It is unclear if this is a running model, but the DAT file will tell you.

So can you post a screenshot of a valid DAT file ?

You need to untick the DAT files when you are done, as BI5 doesn't delete them.
