Hi,

I'm trying to setup BlueIris to record when my HikVision camera senses motion using 'Line Crossing'. I want to try it doing this way versus using BlueIris motion detection because I get a lot of false positives with it (e.g. when the lights go on at night).

I followed this guide, and I can see the status toggle when I browse to http://<url>/outputs/1/status/, however nothing happens in BI.
I've disabled motion detection and enabled 'Triggered using cameras builtin alarm or motion', but nothing gets recorded.

Anyone had success setting this up ?

Ok, got it fixed myself ... lol :)
I wanted to run a script to send me the snapshot using pushbullet, however on the "Alert" tab, I had to enable 'DIO' in order for the script to fire.
