Hi all

Got a site we have installed a Hikvison NVR and various cameras on, the site also has home automation by Crestron where the cctv pictures are to be displayed on various wall panels.

The system works and the pictures are great, but the home automation company is pulling the sub stream to display on their panels which isnt a good picture, currently they are pulling the stream as MJPEG as the H264 stream was blockey and didnt update quick enough.

Anybody done any integration with Crestron and know if there is a way to control the HDMI2 output of the NVR by IP or Serial connection so we can provide a HDMI output that they can change the displayed picture via serial or IP

The wall panels are able to take H264 but their is a delay (missing frames) even with the iframe turned down to 5 and pixelated.

Would a camera be able to have two devices pulling of the main stream at the same time with out any effect?
 
If they are the older panels (752 1052 etc) video streams always looks like crap on them. You can adjust the cameras individual settings to make it load faster (bit rate, fps) but it won't be perfect. You can put IR blaster on NVR and control thru crestron and output monitor to tv screen but it never seems to work out well in my experience.
