Exacq Still Broken But Milestone Adds Full Avigilon Support

Exacq broke Avigilon support and evidently has not plans to rectify it.

However, now Milestone, with their most recent Device Pack (7.3), lists new support for Avigilon cameras.

We did a quick test. Take a look in this screencast:

This seems like a good competitive move. With Avigilon systems more common than ever, having the ability to fully take over an installation of their cameras without having to use server side VMD makes sense.

Great. I'll test if the encoders work too.

Tyco broke not Exacq... the big boy no play well with others.......

Take Your Company Over will desimate this VMS like all the other companies it has bought.....

Seth, the 'breaking' / removal happened prior to the Tyco acquisition, so it looks more likely that Exacq did this independently of Tyco.
