Are there separate ONVIF streams for each imager?

If those two lens positions were fixed, it would open the door to some cool 3D video surveillance development.

I know this post is a little dated. But I am trying to get motion to work with Exacq VMS. If I add it via dahua API I only get 1 stream, but I do get motion on that stream. If I add it via ONVIF I get both camera streams but unable to get motion. Is there something you guys did to get motion to work with both streams? If so could you tell me what you did when adding this to Exacq? This is not listed under Exacq Ip camera integrations. Looks like you guys were able to get this to work.
