plugin.video.surveillanceroom

a Kodi add-on by Maikito26

-- Summary --

If motion or sound is detected a small image preview will slide onto the screen. Pressing select will stop any playing media and open the main video feed with basic controls for pan/tilt and mirror/flip. Exit with the back button or click the close control, and the previously playing file will resume. This works for up to 4 cameras simultaneously Also, there is a menu to select these cameras individually or all of them to play at once.

-- Features --

• Connect up to 4 IP/Foscam Cameras
• Supports credentials for Foscam, but you can overwrite the URL manually to support non-Foscam cameras, or the C model which has RTSP port hard coded to 554.
• Watch in multiple streaming formats, with camera controls displayed overtop of a single camera view.
• Preview cameras while watching content, with Motion and Sound Detection, or by calling it manually using RunPlugin()
• Open the camera stream from a preview, and will resume what you were watching when you close the stream.
• Logic to determine when preview is allowed to display. Configure which windows not to display for.
• Set a home location to move PTZ enabled Foscam cameras to when Kodi starts
