Hello CCTV-members, First time poster and first steps in the world of CCTV I'm looking for surveillance, recording software that on motion detection can launch a program or run a script. The camera in question is a Hikvision DS-2CD2132-I. I already had a look at Blue Iris 3 which can do just that, but seems to be rather high on CPU load. I had a brief look at MileStone XProtect Go and Hikvision iVMS but cannot find out if it can launch a script, specially XProtect seems rather complicated. Thanks! ShadowHunter

Hello, I'm wondering if iSpy can use the substream to perform motion detection and record the mainstream? Thx ShadowHunter

Hello, To reduced CPU load I want to use the built in motion detection from my Hikvision DS-2CD2132-I to trigger recording via iSpy. Is this possible? If yes, how can the camera flag to iSpy to start recording (and when to stop) Thanks. ShadowHunter

Just recording on motion detection, on the alert send a mail and call an internal hosted php page. It's running on a HP MicroServer Gen 8 GT2020: - Intel® Pentium® G2020T (2.5GHz/2-core/3MB) - 10GB DDR3 - SSD 512GB - Recording on WD 3T Black - Server 2012R2 The CPU is not top notch, I know... maybe I need to replace it be a compatible XEON for the general good

The paid features I don't need for this particular case. CPU load of iSpy currently is around 20% (for one cam ) indeed too high in my opinion. I'm gonna fiddle with the frame rates and detection options... Really no other suggestions for software?

Seems for now iSpy does everthing I need...
