I am real newbie at this so hopefully the post is in the right place etc...
What I want to do is hook my current Amcrest NVR into my Homeseer HS4 server via Blue Iris. HS4 has a plugin that can interface with Blue Iris. I don't even want video streams on the Blue Iris server (which would run on the same laptop as HS4 in this case) , but what I do want is some basic messaging and control between BI and the NVR that can then be passed to Homeseer via the Blue Iris plugin.
I'm guessing this isn't possible...but specifically...
1) Have the NVR signal motion events to BI
2) Have BI turn on and off motion detect based on a message flow from BI to the NVR - Homeseer can trigger this to BI so that part is already taken care of...
Is this possible?
