Add motion detection to FOSCAM IP cameras
For now, we suggest using a 3rd party software like Blue Iris or Sighthound and have that software send a notification via the JSON api to activate a scene within InControl.

Ryan, I'd like to use a Blue Iris trigger to activate a scene in InControl. Can you please provide detailed info on how to do this? Thanks in advance!!

I would like alarm status directly transferred from the camera as an input condition within Incontrol. Apparently Vera and Homeseer are accomplishing this directly using Blue Iris and a plug-in. I spoke with Customer Service at IPCam-central and they claim that the Blue Iris affords even more control of the camera than software supplied by Foscam. For an outdoor application they suggested their own IPCC-9605E which is comparibly priced with Foscam. They said the Blue Iris typically offers more flexibility with any supported camera than without. That appears to be a good direction to address my needs.
