    Giving up on PC + Blue Iris- should I try an NVR?

    I have a dual NIC PC that is only used for the camera system. Assuming I can fix my new IP address conflict, here are the problems I still have: Playback is jerky on the PC or on Android.

    Remote Access Wizard

    Remote Access Wizard

    Hi dmc, Hey do you think something similar could be done to have HA know when the VTO button is pressed? Then I could have HA ring the doorbell. I don't have a VTH. Thanks!
