Release Notes
DVR-Scan 1.7 Beta 2 includes some bugfixes for the original beta release and improves error handling. To run the new GUI, launch dvr-scan-app instead of dvr-scan. The application fully integrates with the region editor, and supports loading/saving existing config files. Saved config/region files are compatible with the CLI.
Windows Download
Installer (MSI) or Portable (ZIP)
The installer will create a shortcut to the new app if requested. If you use the portable distribution, the GUI is called dvr-scan-app.exe. Both versions are compatible with existing DVR-Scan versions and can upgrade installations in-place.
Python Package (All Platforms)
Python Wheel (.whl) or Source Distribution (.tar.gz)
Install either Python distribution with pipx or pip as usual.
Changelog
- [bugfix] Fix "too many values to unpack" exception when scanning video
- [bugfix] Fix incorrect calculation of total frames when showing progress
- [bugfix] Fix drag-and-drop shortcut not working due to not parsing input paths from command line

Release Notes
This release includes fixes for incorrect event start/end times when using frame skipping, and improvements to the bounding box overlays.
Important: Aside from critical bugfixes, DVR-Scan 1.4 is the last version supporting Python 2.7. Starting from v1.5, the new minimum supported Python version will be ~3.6~ 3.7 (see #83 for details).

Builds for Windows (installer + portable .zip) are available below.
Changelog
- [bugfix] Event start times are now correctly calculated when using
-fs/--frame-skip(#68, #70)- Note that event start/end times may still be off by how many frames are skipped due to loss of context with respect to frame-accurate motion detection

Changelog
- [feature] Add new
--bb/--bounding-boxoption to draw rectangle around the area in the video where motion was detected- An amount to temporally smooth the box in time can also be specified after
