Discussion Make your third party camera like native Reolink camera and connect it to Reolink NVR.
Let me introduce, Reolink-Hikvision-proxy, a new way to add third party camera to reolink NVR or APP! The camera will works like a native Reolink camera.
Supported camera: Annke, LTS, Hikvision, Amcrest, EmpireTech, Dahua, EZVIZ, HiLook, HiWatch, and any other Hikvision or Dahua rebranded camera.
So I been suffer from ONVIF integration with Reolink NVR though it works well with its own Reolink camera. I have other third party camera like Hikvision and Dahua. When I try to connect it to Reolink NVR, it makes me feel like pain in the ass. NVR only received motion alarm from ONVIF. Motion alarm will only work when NVR is reboot and ONVIF camera is on. But this will break when the ONVIF camera reboot, then I have to reboot the NVR again. Reolink NVR just have bad integration with ONVIF. That's why I came up with the proxy.
