MacOS

[cigas4]

Hellow, how can I install MacOS program? When I download it, I get folder with two files in it, one is without any extension, other is ".d". None of them is doing anything...
Also is it possible to run Neolink together with Reolink software? From description I see it is recomended to use Blue Iris software which is paid, can I use any other free-ware to run Neolink (if Reolink software is not supported)?

The one without the extension is the program. It's a terminal application and you need to be familiar with the terminal app to use it.

I don't use blue-iris. I use other rtsp programs like ffmpeg and VLC. It really dosent matter. Rtsp is a standard format and supported by lots of programs.

Your comment about reolink app is odd. It makes me wonder if your aware of what neolink is.

Neolink is a translator, it takes as input data from the camera and outputs data as an rtsp stream. It is then up to you to decide how to open and use the stream.

Perhaps you could tell me your intended use of the program and I can best direct how to help you.

Hello,

Finally up and running.. I have installed it on Linux VM at the moment to play around, because my main HA is OS version, so I can't run enything else on my rpi4. Also found your instructions for making service file to have auto-start, also works good. Thanks alot!

I see well drop us another line if you need more questions answered.

I think you should be able to use the SSH server add-on to get a shell on the has os and then you can install it on from there. Might want to consider the non has os option I did that for my one and it's really quite easy.

Do you have any ideas?

yeah raspberry pi is armv7 not i386. You want the armhf version here
