HIGHLY RECOMMENDED UPGRADES IF YOU USE AI.
Hi Guys, I had the feeling that I'd broken something with the move of v2 to .NET 6. I was right, the Remote between v2 and AI was no longer working. To be honest I've never been happy with the stability of it either. So I've spent the last week really testing it and fixing code to make it much more stable when connecting the two applications. Some of you will have noticed the Test Connection in v2 never worked right, that is also working now! So if you've previously tried to remote the two apps and failed, I recommend you give it another go with the two latest versions!
Furthermore, hopefully some of you have had the chance to try the new faster thumbnail engine in v2. (see release notes or my previous post to see how to enable). Well, I've moved the same engine to AI now, which makes it much much faster too!!! Similar thing, you'll need to enable the Second Version Engine in the AI local settings under the About menu.
Next I'll focus on providing some guidance in the AI setup on my website, hopefully in next few days! Some may wish to wait until then, others might want to play with the new versions right away.
Download Pornspective v2 2.3.1 here.
Download Pornspective AI 1.3.0 here.
( a key for AI if you need one - MVEQJ-QDDCQ-YGTGB-BQJRE )
Below are the release notes for these two releases :-
ENH Local Settings in AI for faster thumbnails: Settings for choosing FFMPEG engine, this unlocks a very new feature around generating thumbnails much much quicker. This is the most important setting you should try! About Menu -> Settings ->FFMpegEngine. Then set the option to Second Version Engine.
ENH Clearer menu within v2 for AI related tasks. With AI enabled in the Local Settings this menu will appear. You can import the AI export file here if you choose to manually export from AI into v2. If you wish to Remote between the two apps then you can set the AI Mappings in this menu too. AI Mappings allow you to link Tags in v2 to the output in AI and set confidence limits etc. Remember before doing any Remote actions, make sure you've started AI and clicked the Start Service button. You can also check for new AI Detections in this menu too, this might be where you've left AI running and want to collect any updates it has found.
ENH Updated the UI in AI, renamed the application to pornspective.ai to fall inline with pornspective.v2. Installer also now reflect these name changes.
BUG Any errors in AI or v2 during remote would cause the connection to disconnect. I've found the causes of these errors and also safeguarded against them. The connection now should be MUCH MUCH more stable!
BUG When Testing AI Connection in settings, it would come up with failed test even though it was working! This now works as expected.
ENH More logging on both AI and v2 when it comes to processing the AI detection. Please check the logs on both apps if you have an issue.
