Thank you for the detailed response Oliver, I am grateful to finally have some insight on this subject.?
Also, I have been incorrectly using the phrase eventStream in place of alertStream.
I have found other DIY platforms using "
to view a live stream of data coming from the camera, And have had several acquaintances verify that the stream appears to have the necessary data.?
if we? (the community)? can come up with an "alertStream decoder" and subsequent "breakout" modules for the varying API's to make use of at least Motion, Line Crossing, and LPR Data, I would be Stoked.?
The idea that we cannot make use of the data that HIK is flaunting in their platform is silly.?
Also, As an alternative, ONVIF should have some sort of usable? event data that would span all API's. Has anyone verified that this data does/does not exist?
Thank you again for contributing to this subject.?
