subject: open platforms vrs closed ones
Looking to buy my first NVR and set of cameras, for home security type usage.
I'm actually a software engineer and can sort through the various product features but one area I could use some advice onis which systems are more 'opensource' vrs closed platforms?
Simply put, I do a bunch of work under linux and would love to buy something which allows me to talk to the NVR and other parts, either via a well established REST API, or RPC, or what not.
Simply put which systems would you avoid, which are closed and which are good at truly being open platforms?
We only sell hikvision higher models.
