is it reading the video stream from the NVR or the camera (so then you have two sources reading the camera
I'm not 100% sure on this yet.... Until a couple days ago.... everything I used went straight to the cameras (Control Pages, NVR, iPhones, tables, iPads, etc.) I'm still leaving control pages to access the cameras directly.... but thats because I can't get a snapshot from the NVR. (The URL doesn't work for me and their support forum sucks). I think the NVR (POE - Wired to the cameras) is accessing both streams from the cameras all the time. (I'll see it when looking at the NVR... if there is some delay or something, it will auto switch to pull the "sub" stream for a minute). So I give Sighthound the address to the sub stream for the camera on the NVR. (The sub-stream is what I use mostly for mobile devices because it will load quicker on a cell connection).
For me... I need to go to each camera and set a consistent sub-stream rate for all of them. (lower resolution, lower frame rate, etc.) Once I do that, Sighthound should take even less CPU power.
I think the setting on sighthound just tells Sighthound what resolution to use for saving clips and sending .jpg emails.
But... it all might be for not. I now keep getting an error on my HA computer "Application isn't running. IndigoServer got an error: Application isn't running. (-600)." I don't know what that means, but when I select "Edit", it goes to the little Applescript applications I wrote which Sighthound triggers to update Indigo Variables. = No integration yet.
- Code: Select all
tell application "IndigoServer"
set value of variable "Sighthound" to "FrontDoor"
end tell
Was working, now not working. Runs fine if I put it into an action command, but I need it as executable script or something on the computer that Sighthound can run. <-- Why SH is on the HA computer.
