I have managed to read the function doorbell button (or in VMS video call).

First you have to know that the VD1 sends a GET request when the doorbell button is pressed. So I installed webhook (https://github.com/adnanh/webhook) and looked what happens here and saw how the data looks like in wireshark.

The integration itself I have integrated via httplistener binding (https://community.openhab.org/t/webhook-new-very-simple-binding-for-listening-incomming-http-requests/123597) the configuration in the http listeren binding looks like this.

UID: httplistener:HttpListener:doorbell
label: Doorbell HttpListener
thingTypeUID: httplistener:HttpListener
configuration:
  jsonConfig: |-
    {
      "channels": [
        {
          "key":"motion_detection",
          "kind": "STATE",
          "state": "req.parameters.motion_detection[0]"
        },
        {
         "key": "sound_detection",
         "kind": "STATE",
         "state": "req.parameters.sound_detection[0]"
        },
            {
         "key": "video_call",
         "kind": "STATE",
         "state": "req.parameters.video_call[0]"
        },
            {
         "key": "face_detection",
         "kind": "STATE",
         "state": "req.parameters.face_detection[0]"
        }
      ]
    }

With the channel video_call I have linked an item with which I can e.g. trigger a bell or a speaker or simply send a notification.
