Video Surveillance SW - Docker

Configuration
1

Hi,

I have a Xiaomi Dafang with Dafang Hacks CFW installed. Now I want to integrate it with my HA setup with the following requirements:

  • SW must run locally with no cloud attachment in a Docker Container since I am running HA on a Synology NAS
  • I want motion detection and event triggers on HA (For now I have motion detection disabled on the Xiaomi Cam since i think it would be better to have it done on the SW to cause less load on the cam)
  • Live Stream directly on HA
  • PTZ controll on HA
  • Ideally integration to save the recordings or at least the motion detection stills on Synology (via SMB/NFS share?)

Taking this in account what option do you recommend?
I have seen MotionEye, Zoneminder and Synology Surveillance Station.

Thanks a lot!

If you are already running on a NAS, and if you want to go the easy route, Surveillance Station is the obvious choice, IMHO.
By default you have a licence for two cameras.
I don’t use PTZ, so I don’t know, but, for the rest Surveillance Station does what you want.

Alright, I will try it. And do you know if it does integrate nicely with HA?

Yes. I consider it does. You will see it is fairly easy to do. So, if you don’t like it you can try another solution.
I don’t use the event triggers on HA but, it can be done. You have to add an “SMS” provider and put the correct syntax to send event to HA.
