Hi Community - I am looking for some assistance in getting my IP cameras integrated into Control4.

My current dealer hasnt been able to do it and doesnt have the knoledge to build a driver and get them connected.

He also couldnt find a commerical driver that worked

One way to do this is to use Blue Iris - this is NVR software that runs on Windows.  It can work with streams from pretty much any IP camera (or other types of cameras) and there is a free, plus a deluxe paid driver for C4.  The downside is that you have to have the Blue Iris software running on a PC but then that gives you a flexible NVR solution that is recording some or all of your cameras - either 24x7 or just when triggered via motion.

Both - I use the C4 driver.

The 3rd party one is by Audio Obsessions has some very cool functionality - like you can set up "hotspots" on the screen so that you could turn on a light by touching the light switch, or turn on the TV by touching the TV.   Here is a link to it on Houselogix  http://www.houselogix.com/shop/blue-iris-nvr

You have to get these, like all drivers, from your dealer and IANAD.
