UltraSighthoundVideo3 is a HomeSeer HS3 plugin used to arm the security cameras connect to a Sighthound Video server. However, the setup/config pages are not optimized for use on mobile devices. If there is anything positive to say about it is it is very good at detection of 'people' and not just pixel changes due to the sun coming or going or leaves moving on the tree.HS4 users: This plugin was created for HS3 and should run on your HS4 system. This just wasn't an option from my work machine so. That and they didn't provide for HTTPS connections to the web server piece and that meant I had to VPN into my network. The things that drove me to switch was I was originally on a two camera license and needed more, so the cost was going to go up on me. I really wanted to get text alerts of events and be able to check the recordings from my office computer and phone and I wanted it to be secure. In the end, I loaded Windows onto the Mac and am getting BlueIris setup for my home.

The support wasn't as readily available as BlueIris.The price is high when compared to BlueIris.Did not give HTTPS as an option for internet access to webpage (this was deal breaker in the end for me).When the allocated drive space was full that I gave it, it would erase the oldest non-flagged recording fisrt I loved that it was always recording and sets a 'flag' for events in a search ability.Was able to use a slew of different cameras with it (Hikvision, TOP-201, Hootoo, and others).Did not take a lot of system resources to run.

Was very easy to get configured to do what I wanted.

Did a great job with the motion detection and got very few false alarms.

I was using Sighthound on my Mac Mini not long ago.
