    Hi @pit5bul

    I was looking through the existing verified plugins with dahua in the name, and noticed this one:

    From what I can see, this one connects to an NVR, whereas your plugin is different in that it connects directly to a canera via its IP?

    Hi @bwp91

    Long story short yes, i already built the Dahua NVR plugin but i had requests from people that dont have the NVR and only have individual cameras to maybe create one version of the plugin that is directly using the cameras via IP address and pulla out everything automatically using the Dahua API. Both plugins are mine

    @pit5bul ah I had not realised that other plugin was yours too.

    would it not have been better to have just one plugin that has both functionalities?

    the API's are quite different, and it would change the whole discovery process, it would be a very complicated process to combine it. I wish it would have been easier to integrate into one
