    Switch Dahua Day/Night Profile via IPC HTTP API

    I'm doing the same with HomeAssistant. I'm also using the cam IVS tripswires as HomeAssistant sensors. What other ways do you use the cams with HomeAssistant?

    I heard Doorbird was at CEDIA with a couple of new models. I'm interested in details when they're available.

    Trigger blue iris with IVS?

    Thanks. I got that but was having trouble figuring out how to insert it into my MQTT url. I figured it out just now and it works great! sensorurl = ("home-assistant/cameras/{0}/IVS").format(self.Index); client.publish(sensorurl, "ON");

    Trigger blue iris with IVS?

    I'm terrible with python and programming in general. With multiple cameras, do you have any ideas how to distinguish which camera is sending the event? I'm sure it is something to do with index number of the cameras array (0, 1, 2, etc.). I'm just not sure how to do it.

    Sweet! LTS is releasing an ONVIF compatible doorbell with SD card slot and 940nm IR

    I'm in no hurry to buy and am waiting for POE and ONVIF. I meant to say that Doorbird still appears to be the only choice including those two features.

    I guess I'll still have to go Doorbird for POE and ONVIF.

    Trigger blue iris with IVS?

    I managed to get it working and talking to HomeAssistant via MQTT. IVS detection seems much more reliable than motion, but I still seem to get false positives. Maybe I don't have IVS set up correctly. Is there a guide for the 5231 anywhere?

    DAHUA IPC-HDW5231R-Z with QNAP Surveillance Station?

    I've had my three 5231 cameras recording 24/7 on Surveillance Station for about the last week now. Originally I had motion detection set up but was getting constant false positives. Motion detection is disabled now on all but one camera, and I still get too many false positives. Very...

    How is this working out for you? I just installed my cameras and am about to hook them up to Surveillance Station.

    DAHUA IPC-HDW5231R-Z with QNAP Surveillance Station?

    I didn't mean to imply that that would be the primary use. Just that I had that hardware to try it out. I'm very familiar with why a dedicated i5 machine is superior, i.e. Hardware acceleration. I'm only planning in two cams for now tho, and I would like to avoid another computer if possible...

    Thanks. I'm looking to get two starlight a and have a pretty powerful qnap I'd like to start with for basic monitoring. I'll bump up to blue iris if needed.
