ONVIF Device Manager (Onvifdm)

Onvifdm library Onvifdm library is a free and open-source ONVIF network video client (NVC) implementation written in C# to manage network video transmitter (NVC) devices such as ip-cameras and video encoders. The library allows security solution providers to develop custom video surveillance applications and to integrate ONVIF-compliant devices in legacy video management systems.

Onvifdm example application

Onvifdm example application is a free and open-source graphic user interface for the Onvifdm library. It enables CCTV installers and end-users to manage network video transmitters with advanced features such as embedded video analytics. A system integrator may customize the application to provide a differentiating product or service.

ONVIF functions

• Network device discovery (WS-Discovery)
• Live video display
• Video capture configuration (digital sensor or analogue inputs)
• Encoder configuration
• Video analytics configuration
• Event and metadata configuration
• Alert rule management
• Firmware update
• Local storage / network storage recording
• PTZ camera control

Multilingual interface and easy localization

The application can be easily translated to different languages by editing a text file in the XML format. No compiler is required. If you have localized the application, please commit the language file to the SourceForge SVN.

Interoperability

Onvifdm is compatible with network video transmitter devices supporting ONVIF 1.02 and above. The application has been tested with:

• Synesis MW-NVT, ONVIF NVT middleware with embedded analytics
• Synesis VA-SCT, Embedded video analytics
• Synesis DK-646-ENC2, dual channel video analytics encoder development kit
• Synesis DK-646-CAM, high definition video analytics camera development kit
• Axis P3301, fixed dome network camera, firmware 5.11.1
• Vivotek IP8330, night visibility network bullet camera
• Sony DH140, 720p minidome camera
