Hi all- Does anyone know if any code has been developed that could subscribe to standard ONVIF cameras to receive motion alerts that could then be used to create a ST motion device that could be used to trigger actions (turning on lights, audio alerts, etc.). Ideally I’d like some Python or Nodejs…

The only thing I’ve been able to find is to use a program like this. [image] iSpy - Open source camera security software iSpy - Open source camera security software. iSpy provides security, surveillance, motion detection, online access and remote control But t…

Ok you effectively burst my bubble :smirk: I have 5M Reolink cameras that are ONVIF compliant but I see what you mean that only Profile T supports motion events. So we’re left with having to do the image analysis ourselves or use notifications from 3rd party sw like iSpy or Blue Iris, which you po…

If that’s the only way you can get alerts to your phone then if you have a android phone you can install tasker & Sharptools they then link to your SmartThings so when you get a notication or email it will tell SmartThings for you

Instead of Tasker I use a program called AutomateIt but it’s basically the same thing. And instead of sharptools, you can just do a web hook directly to core. I’ve tried this method but the motion sensing built into my camera was too unreliable to make it practical.

We’re working on it, have a alpha version ready, will probably release it once it gets closer to the release version.

Developing an interface for Onvif cameras for SmartThing that will report motion detection - what you asked in the first post.

For all ONVIF cameras? Wouldn’t you have to process the image for motion detection? Not all ONVIF cameras report detected motion.

That would be awesome! Please tell us more when you can. I’d be happy to be a beta tester.

Unfortunately ST broke the platform a few months during a deployment which is causing it to strip out/truncate the body of the device SOAP response. So we’re pretty much in a holding pattern until it’s fixed. It’s been pending a patch for quite some time now.

@rappleg any ETA on the patch?

TCP Commands not transmitting with HubAction?
