Note: If you are using a SaaS (Cloud-Hosted) deployment, you will need to have an external IP address for each IP camera so Ensemble Video can pull the stream from the IP Camera. You can restrict traffic to the external to/from Ensemble Video cloud to a specific server IP address provided by Ensemble Video) You can test this URL with a program like VLC before you confgure the camera in Ensemble Video to be certain the camera stream is working properly. The URL may have a username/password in it as well. RTSP URL: the live stream URL of your IP camera.

There are many IP cameras (network cameras) that you can use with Ensemble Video. If there's a way of giving a quota to an NFS share in OMV, without doing things with partitions or virtual disks, that could be useful.Ensemble Live Streaming enables automated control of IP cameras (network cameras), so through the Ensemble Video interface you can start/stop streaming and start/stop recording. Once done, select it again and edit the 'percentage of record' box near the bottom to give 95% to video, the rest to JPGs.

Apparently it's a bug with any storage space over 200GB. These Hikvisions cameras seem to have problems with NFS, as documented here.īasically the NFS share appears to be initialised properly by the camera, but soon enough it appears to be uninitialised and can't be used.

Both devices are wired on my home network. ![]() The camera is a Hikvision DS-2CD2142FWD-I, I had hoped to use a NFS share on OMV for storage but it can also use SMB. I added a 2TB USB drive, 2.5 inch so the RPi powers it and it's nearly silent. I plumped for OMV and am pleased with it (using v2.2.9). I got a RPi 3 mainly to use as storage for a new IP camera.
