Hi folks, We don't support ONVIF for auto-detection yet, but that doesn't mean the camera won't work in Sighthound Video, it just won't be auto-located and configured as we can with some UPnP cameras. If the cameras support ONVIF, then it means that they expose a public URL for the video stream whic...

Hi akramer, As you can see from the remote access dialog, the links provided are http. The remote access dialog also explicitly states that Basic auth is used. There is no attempt to obscure this, a packet scan isn't necessary to find this out. This is no different for users who would normally forwa...

Hi Tony,

We're putting the finishing touches and testing on our next release and hope to have it out soon. We don't have a public release schedule.

Hi Mark, Hyperthreading is a feature of some processors. For comparing CPU performance I would recommend checking http://www.cpubenchmark.net ONVIF isn't a brand, but rather a standard. If you can't locate the manufacturer of the camera it might not be the best purchase, as you may never be able to ...

Hi Jeremy, I'm with you on enjoying capturing the wildlife clips. Though I'm afraid all I have around my place is skunks... We're certainly working on better shadow elimination in our next generation algorithms, hopefully that will solve all of your issues. In the meantime to expand on some of the s...

No matter what settings I have configured the video is extremely stuttery, normal frames for first half of every second, then pausing in the second half. I grabbed a ...

We've got a few example systems listed at the bottom of http://www.sighthound.com/support/system-requirements

Hi Jason, Sighthound Video isn't quite set up for the scenario you've proposed, running in stealth mode on each workstation. It would be better suited if, for example, you used VLC or some other application on each workstation to stream the webcams (essential turning them into IP cameras) and monito...

@jeremy Appreciate the offer. Typically we would connect to a forwarded camera to attempt to troubleshoot, but given the nature of this problem that might not work in this case. I wouldn't be terribly comfortable taking physical possession of a camera due to any accidents/lost mail that could occur,...

Hi Mark, If you haven't seen it this article contains more detail about the difference between local cameras (USB, analog over a capture card) and IP cameras: http://www.sighthound.com/support/what-kind-camera-should-i-get Your computer can only handle so many USB cameras at once (due to power and d...
