Can I use Hikvision Cam built-in event to trigger recording

[windpoint]

I am new to BI and am impressed by the features.

I currently have couple of Hikvision DS-2CD2032-I IP cameras. I am trying to use the smart even ( cross line) from Camera to trigger BI recording.

Is this even possible without having to adding 3rd party services? I know somebody succeeded with js.node and http post.

Thank you in advance.

possibly using find inspect and turning on push pull subscription. However, blue iris zone crossing is significantly better. See instructional videos in the sticky thread.

Followed your suggestion, I am using BI zone crossing. So far so good. Thank you.
