Thanks for this.

Do you have an API command to turn off the time display?
I set it off using Smart PSS app but it returns on any reboot. It would be much easier to send a string.

FWIW, I finally figured out 2 Way audio in BI. Both (AD410 and BI) being strictly local access only.

Next up is how to use TinyCam remotely. I have BI alerts MQTT to HomeAssistant that pushes notices to my phone. Having a TinyCam widget on my phone homescreen makes things easy.

The VideoWidget CGI manages the content of the video overlay. For the current settings and all it can control:

http://<ip_addr>/cgi-bin/configManager.cgi?action=getConfig&name=VideoWidget[0]

I've not tested this, but it appears this should work to remove the Time from the RTSP stream:

http://<ip_addr>/cgi-bin/configManager.cgi?action=setConfig&VideoWidget[0].TimeTitle.EncodeBlend=false

The secondary PreviewBlend probably does not need to be turned off. Note: For the substream, use the [1] array suffix.

Thanks for posting your success and use case with BI and Tinycam. I don't use either, but I do rely heavily on the Home Assistant Amcrest integration to trigger on events and have HA send Telegram alerts, which include a snapshot and a link to the recorded video on HA.

GaryOkie, thank you! You are awesome!
