Anyone want to add support for audio events (AudioMutation & AudioAnomaly) here is a sample...

I don't like to add stuff to the underlying operating system. Everything is kept in separate isolated docker containers so nothing interferes with anything else. Since it's in a docker my docker operating system is the same as the developers so it will work exactly the same. It's easy to...

added (brief) instruction for you.

Docker compose is the way to go (there are multiple ways you can use docker). psyciknz/CameraEvents dahua_camera_events: container_name: dahua_camera_events image: psyciknz/cameraevents restart: always volumes: -...

I use docker so it's always running. Do you need instruction?

A quick Google tells me smartpss is Windows software. Do I need to put smartpss on a Windows server to run 24/7, or is it just a Windows client I can run periodically on my desktop when I review the recordings and I let the cameras record direct to disk based on their individual setup, and the...

I don't like that blue iris doesn't support IVs. I'm not sure if any of the Linux options support IVs however.

I haven't decided what I'll do yet. I have 1x Dahua 5231 (2mp varifocal) 2x Dahua 4431 (2mp fixed) 1x Dahua 2xxx (2mp varifocal) +/- may add some wyze cameras or cheap indoor camera. I have a server already (i3-3770) that runs Linux for home assistant and media server with 60tb onboard and a...

So what are the differences? I'm trying to decide.

I think everything just gets lumped together but I haven't spent much time looking into it.

It's working. I haven't played around with all the events yet, so I'm not sure what's supported by the docker. Can the docker send different mqtt messages for different events so I can have a sensor for face detection in home assistant as well as for motion?

Thanks. Yea I recognised the $variable. I'll try this tonight and hopefully I'll get in going. Thanks for your help.

Thanks. What files should I put in ${BASEPATH}/ha-shared/cameraevents/ Do I dump the files from the GitHub into that folder?

Hi I have it working, I had to many options enabled so it was always 'on' , I subsequently changed to video motion event only in the watch.py settings and now I am getting ON and OFF mqtt messages. Thanks.

There is no build.sh included.

Hi I still have not been able to get this going. This is my docker-compose.yaml dahua_camera_events: container_name: dahua_camera_events image: psyciknz/cameraevents restart: always I was getting this error in the log: 2019-06-26 09:49:18,243 - __main__ - ERROR - Error...

Ahh it might be that I enabled everything single supported detection event so it's always "on".

Hi Psyciknz. I'm also in New Zealand. I'm a bit stuck trying to use your github. Whats the command for building the docker image. I'm used to having a file called "dockerbuild" not "dockerbuild.cross". I can't figure out how to use it the .cross file. PS. I'm using linux. If i try and...

Hi Thanks for the script. I'm using this version here: johnnyletrois/dahua-watch However it looks like it sends mqtt post for camera on and off, However other events don't seem to post to MQTT. I think he hasn't finished the script on github? @johnnyletrios

Wedge has audio. You can look at spec on website

Yup. That was my other choice, the mini wedge. I was afraid it might not give enough detail for a baby cam. The room is about 3x3m approx in size and the ceiling height is 2.,4m. Can I get away with the mini wedge?

My research suggests I should buy this one? IPC-HDW5231R-ZE

If anyone can recommend a model, I'm a bit lost with so many options available. Would like to install on ceiling in baby room and have it zoomed into crib. Will have it zoomed out when baby is a toddler. Would like audio support (don't need 2 way).

Hi I'm after a varifocal dahua for indoors with zoom and mic. Either supports an add-on mic or built in mic. Don't need full ptz. Prefer smaller form factor. Don't need ir lights on it, if it has ir need to be able to be switched off. Prefer h265 but suppose it doesn't really matter

I'm wondering about this to. I want a baby camera with audio for monitoring the crib and thought this would be a nice discrete small camera. This will be my first ip camera actually. My current network setup is all unifi gear and I have a server running Linux and docker for Plex / radarr /...

I know that hikvision have built in line crossing detection vents and can trigger events within home assistant they can also record direct to nas using motion events. Do the dahua starlight turrets support motion detection and can they be used to trigger events within home assistant, eg. can...

Hi I am looking at setting up an NVR and motion captured recordings for 2-3 x POE cameras. I will run the NVR software on either an i3-2100 or i7-3770. The PC running the software also is a DIY nas. I use home assistant for home automation and it is running a raspberry pi. My gateway / router /...

any luck with this? I have home assistant, but am yet to buy a couple of poe cameras and a NVR and I'm not sure whether to go with hikvision or dahua NVR for home assistant integration.
