If your camera is not one with an API (see list of camera brands to buy in the first post of this thread) so you will need to source the motion detection another way. Some ideas are:
- Zwave PIR sensor, $30 pet friendly ones have been posted on this forum before. Advantages are you can mount away from bugs that go to the IR lights and the way a PIR works will mean less false positive alarms.
- Software running to do the detection. motion (motioneyeos), blue iris and a few others.
When I searched for your camera model I found it mentioned as often having malware hidden in the cameras firmware, see here…
Yes that is pretty common, some cameras only allow 1 connection to be made at a time, you can test it by trying to open multiple streams on different tabs of a browser. The binding will allow you to work around this limitation.
The readme has this covered and much more.
Also I strongly recommend if you have multiple cameras to stop using the image channel and to move to this method below. When I setup >4 cameras the Odroid c2 that I am using could not handle the images going to Openhabs event bus at 1fps. More data was being sent then openhab could handle and I got a crash. You lower CPU usage by half and also the memory leaks I have seen are no longer happening and it is simply turning 1 single line of code off that sends the image to Openhabs framework.
