Yes, I grabbed the update which allows for recursive searching in folders...a welcome update. No joy though as it still doesn’t watch the folders correctly. Thanks.

Has anyone using a Mac successfully used the watch folder (stream option)? What did your folder path look like? The example they give is for Windows "c:/evidenceLibrary/dashcams", which won't work on a Mac. So, here my test folder at this path: /Users/myusername/Desktop/test I configure AL...

FWIW, SH v5 uses significantly less CPU, I'd guess about 50% less. My Mac Mini had plenty of CPU head room with v5, and now hits about 80% with v6.

You might see a small performance improvement by making sure to quit the application. It will run in the background and still be processing, but give some relief to the CPU from not updating the screen.

Technical support requests via posts here are hit or miss. Suggest you report the issue through the program (and send logs) or simply email them at [email protected]. Good luck!

I was running the OSX Beta 2 for a few days. New detection types are cool and the CPU footprint is now back down close to v5. However, it is just too unstable and would crash all the time. I sent a bunch of error logs that I hope help you guys out, but I'm switching back to v5 until Beta 3 drops.

I just changed one of my feeds from H.264 to H.265 and Sighthound Beta 2 could not process it. Too bad.

Glad to hear OSX performance has improved. I stopped using beta 1 when it loaded my CPU 2 to 2.5 times the old version. I'll be trying the beta 2 version out soon. Thanks!

Just installed the beta and I'll spend more time with it over the next few days but two immediate things: 1. I like that I can switch back and forth between versions easily, though I'm afraid to edit my rules as it might break backwards compatibility (ie. look for cars). 2. CPU load went from 22% to...
