Hi all, I am new to Blue Iris so I may have missed something, but does anyone know if it is possible to set up alerts (specifically for mobile push notifications) to trigger only when a certain area of a camera is triggered? I am aware of hot spots and masking zones, but I am talking about having the camera record movement detection as per usual, but then the ability to set up an alert if someone has gone past a certain point on the camera.
For example in a driveway situation, camera will detect movement and record if someone is at the top of the driveway, but if they then came down the driveway past a certain point you would receive a push notification on your phone.
I found that this could be accomplished by having 2 instances of the same camera in Blue Iris, and then setting up masking to suit and enabling alerts on only one of them, but is this going to affect the performance of the camera? Is there an alternative way to do this that I have overlooked?
Thanks in advance
