blackfiveo1 Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Saw a link on wired.com for this, looks pretty neat, anyone played with one? any chance to get integration to c4 for this? https://ring.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krazykroc Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 I have a couple of these and they work quite well. They say on their website they are developing an API so id imagine once they have completed that a driver could be written to intergrate with C4. If the gurus that write drivers feel there is a market for it I imagine :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kajphotos Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Ring is the same company as door bot .. They changed the name and the way the product looks and has much better improvements .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thatguy230 Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 Has anyone gotten any answers as to weather the ring door bell will have c4 integration? Alan Chow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Audio Obsessions Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 I believe ring is cloud based... So doubtful... Furthermore anyone using c4 should really reconsider using cloud based products. You have a great lan controller, for the love of ... Control things on the lan. Wan access, yes! But wan control; I hate it (have to use it sometimes, but always prefer not too).

I plan on adding blue iris for several cameras and wanted to know what is "RING-Like" that blue iris can interrogate so i can add my control4. thanks ahead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thatguy230 Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 I like that the ring goes to my phone wherever I am unlike the c4 door station which doesn't help when I'm not at home Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StroTek LLC Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 The doorbird is right between the ring doorbell and the control4 door stations.. and for me its a perfect compromise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the products are stylish and more sophisticated looking than Ring or any of the other new doorbells. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ILoveC4 Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 What wiring is required for the Doorbird? Can you use existing Doorbell wiring? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StroTek LLC Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 @ILoveC4 Reading the documentation that comes with the doorbird it states: Quote The Video Door Station can be powered by two simple doorbell wires using the power-supply unit (Mains adapter) supplied with it or via PoE using a network cable. The Video Door Station can alternatively also be supplied with a DIN-rail power supply unit that you can obtain from us directly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mandiola Posted June 25, 2016 Share Posted June 25, 2016 There is no subscription at the moment because their cloud service is in beta. Once it goes live there will be a fee. At the moment the only thing it does is live video and takes a picture and stores it locally, no recorded video/audio. It only stores 20 pictures from the doorbell button press and 20 from motion which. You also can't manually delete them they just overlap the last image. You can record video with your NVR via RTSP but they will not allow audio at the moment because of European law. I was hoping to use the camera as both a doorbell and as an additional security camera but the quality is not good outside of the tiny video feed on the phone. According to DoorBird "The DoorBird was designed as a Video Door Station, not as a super duper security camera ". The live video is pretty good but you can only view the video vertically on the phone, it doesn't adjust when you turn th phone horizontally. The audio/voice sounded excellent. I really wanted to like the thing because it's one of the few that integrates with c4 pretty well, but to me it is far from a complete product. Both the hardware and software felt like a prototype.
