Let me start with a statement. I personally do not find the camera feature of HS4 useful at all. It can't do most of the things that I need hence I'm looking at Blue Iris.
Questions about Blue Iris
1. Can I run it on a dedicated RPi-4 ?
2. If yes on RPi than how many cameras can I monitor without recording all the time just when motion is detected.
3. Can I show live video feed on web pages (i.e. does BI have web server).
4. Can BI recognize car license plates?
5. Can BI recognize people's faces?
6. Can BI recognize humans from other objects?
7. Can BI filter false motion triggers such as grass, leaves, branches, birds, small wild animals etc.
8. Can I make voice announcements to the camera from HS4 "speak something" function through BI assuming that the camera supports two way audio.
9. I understand BI reports over MQTT motion detection. Does it take MQTT commands as well? For example "start recording cam #2".
10. Is BI plug-in for HS4 good and reliable?
Thanks in advance to those who are willing to share their BI experience.
