Remote access using Linux (Ubuntu)

Post by vwaudifreak »

Is there any support to get remote access using Linux? Either WAN or LAN.

Using Linux I can't get it to work since the DVR-web client is for Windows.

Thanks.

Sadly, probably have to run a virtualbox of windows, I highly doubt a plugin would ever be coded for linux, due to open source law, and HDCVI is currently a Dahua only patent/IP. Also just the sheer number of linux distros would make this very cost prohibitive.

Hello,

Unfortunately we don't have any plans to implement a Linux plugin as of right now. One option you can try is ZoneMinder. I have not tested this on our systems, but it supports RTSP streams. Info on the RTSP streams for our systems can be found here: https://amcrest.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/ar ... I-NVR-960H
