New IP Camera Protocol I8S
Hello to All,
I use some IP cameras, all with ONVIF protocol.
Recently I found a new protocol named I8S.
Some cameras use this protocol (in addition of ONVIF and I8 of course), and this seem to be interesting (if used with a NVR with I8S also).
Someone know who sell these cameras? A Chinese vendor's name could be better.
The I8S super protocol seems to be traceable back to AeVision, better known as the maker of the $50 $19.5 Super Mini NVR.
Network administrators might not be too keen on multiple devices sharing one IP though.

As far as I can tell, I8, I8S, I9 are all a sort of generic protocol shared by some of the cheap Chinese manufacturers. The mini NVR we tested did indeed support them. I've seen them referenced in other manufacturers' literature as well.
I believe it's a driver for the common platform most of these cameras seem to be based on. Like how Wodsee, Cantonk, Longse, etc. all share an eerily similar interface, they share one or more of these protocols, too.
