Is there a way to use my existing 2gig doorbell to trigger (ADC rules) a camera with 2 way audio, and the video will show up on panel and phones so I can keep my existing doorbell setup this would be the most aesthetic option for my setup.
Live view from the panel is a live stream that access, and Event Triggered clip would not generate at the panel. You must request the live stream manually.
