I saw someone made a new blue iris integration for Home assistant GitHub - kramttocs/ha-blueiris: Home Assistant Integration with Blue Iris Video Security Software . If anyone wants to try it and tell us how it is. READ the github instructions before anything.
Someone made another BlueIris Home assistant Integration
- Thread starter killerdan56
- Start date
I'm still looking, but so far I've noticed it has a better configuration menu and adds additional sensors for AI and camera connectivity.
Hey all. I am not on this forum much but feel free to tag me or submit something in Github if you run across anything.
To answer @George M, the primary reason I split it off was that the original was created prior to a lot of built in functionality from HA around custom integrations. I've been supporting elad-bar's for awhile now (since he moved to another nvr some time back) but couldn't address several of the big issues without a large rewrite.
I also took this chance to add some new features around alerts that makes it a bit easier to create rich notifications.
It should all be pretty familiar for users of the original though do note that the MQTT setup changed a bit to allow for some flexibility.

Can this integration be installed along side the other one? Also can it send clips as well as snapshots with the notifiations?
See the github for more details but no, they can't coexist.
It stores still images for notifications. I am not sure how well clips would work. What I do is include a link to BlueIris UI3 in the notification if the still image looks worth of checking out.
If you want to open a feature request on GH, please do but I ask that you describe in great detail what you are imagining. Just thinking through it now I can see how different people might want different behavior with clips.
My main thought is that I don't want the notification delayed to wait for more footage. I'd rather get the notification immediately.
