Hey guys,
I've been running BI for several years now and have started slowly adding more cameras to my setup. I'm thinking about adding a few Dahua starlight models based on everyone's high recommendations here. I would ideally like to setup these new cameras for full time recording as well as motion detection for alerts.
My questions are:
Is there an advantage to configuring motion detection on the camera itself instead of in Blue Iris?
Will this reduce the overhead of my BI server?
Can BI be notified from the camera if motion is detected and still fire motion events (If so, does ONVIF have something to do with this)?
Thanks guys!
