Luxriot EVO is a highly stable software, easy to use on any network and very easy to deploy with the advanced Auto Detection feature for IP cameras. Luxriot EVO also provides extreme flexibility as it can manage unlimited servers, sites, and cameras remotely, quickly and efficiently. Luxriot EVO is an open architecture Video Management Software (VMS) for Windows. Luxriot EVO accepts MJPG, MPEG-4, H.264 and H.265, as well as Full HD and megapixel video streams from Network (IP) cameras, encoders and capture boards. This, along with Luxriot EVO client-server architecture, allows you to build hybrid scalable solutions from a single NVR/DVR to multiple servers handling thousands of cameras.
Luxriot EVO accepts video streams from Network (IP) cameras from 90+ manufacturers including all major manufacturers such as Axis, Arecont Vision, Pixord, SONY, JVC, Panasonic, IQinVision, Toshiba, Zavio, Acti, Vivotek and UDP (more than 4000+ models supported) Luxriot EVO also works with several DVR cards, like H.264, SDI "HDCCTV" (up to 960fps and up to 64 channels at D1 resolution) boards from UDP and other manufacturers. Moreover Luxriot EVO is considered to be a hybrid system, since a DVR card with analog cameras, IP cameras, webcams and IP megapixel cameras, could be combined together on a single server.

Using the Wizard a user is able to find all Network IP cameras available within the network. The user can configure them and connect them in no time and with little effort. Each device is individually configurable Support for video, audio, hardware-side motion detectors and digital I/O Link to the supported camera list: http://www.luxriot.com/support/supported-cameras/. The list is constantly updated ONVIF Profile S support Generic drivers (RTSP, MJPEG, ONVIF) Support for Direct Show compatible devices: the list of these devices includes everything from very basic USB cameras to camcorders to advanced multichannel video capture boards. These devices can be used alone or together with supported hardware and/or IP cameras, including GigE cameras installed via DirectShow driver. Capture boards External I/O devices via TCP/IP Video streaming to and from Android and iOS phones and tablets via Luxriot EVO Mobile Camera search (automatic discovery) Single and multiple (bulk) device and channel configuration Copy device and channel configration Video stream preview in Luxriot EVO Console Easily combine video stream with textual data overlay and visual channel shortcuts on the configuration stage for later usage in Luxriot EVO Monitor application |

Each channel can be copied unlimited number of times with different stream and frame rate choice. Fallback storage: a special storage location that will be used for recording only if all specified target storages of the certain type have failed (storage failover within one server) |
Watchdog | For every Luxriot EVO server and Luxriot EVO Monitor application Protects the software from certain types of failures by automatically attempting to restart the service and the server machine, if required Scheduled restarts (default maintenance restart period is one week) with configurable time limitations Operates based on the software and system overall health monitoring Default trigger values selected based on extensive tests run on systems of different configuration and stability levels Configured for each server independently Logging of watchdog activity Individual watchdog for the Luxriot EVO Monitor application that observes software behaviour and restarts the application in case of certain failures Watchdog can be used by License Plate Recognition module if it is installed on the same machine |
Motion Detector | Camera-side motion detection support for most devices: analysis of raw (non-compressed) video stream on the device side decreases resource usage on the server side and provides best detection results High performance software motion detector mode: analysis of key frames only, lower CPU and memory usage, limited accuracy High accuracy software motion detector mode: analysis of the whole video stream, maximum accuracy for motion detection on a compressed video stream. Recommended for use cases where motion shorter than 1 second must be detected. Ability to use lower resolution stream for server-side motion detection to decrease server resource usage, both for high performance and high accuracy modes |
Camera-side VCA Event Support | Multiple vendors (including ONVIF Profile S devices), exact list of supported events depends on camera brand Data mining for post event analysis and data management Sensitive tracking with a low false alarm rate VCA adapts automatically to varying lighting and weather conditions Simple detection zone setup Fire and Smoke – WARNING - The smoke and fire video analytics do not comply with any detection standards and should not be used as a safety device. VCA should only be installed in addition to certified safety devices and used only to supply additional information. VCA enabled encoder/camera can be used as a stand-alone intruder sensor or digital output contact can be set to react to specific triggers Analytics stabilization allows software to work effectively on swaying cameras Rapid 'learning time' of just a few seconds. Can be used with PTZ cameras - detection is suppressed during camera movement Unique features - PTZ auto tracking, fog and smoke reduction, image stabilization and camera tamper VCA has NO single point of failure, because the Analytic s is integrated on the Edge HW; Video server or into the Camera VCA is very easy and simple to configure even for installers with limited experience VCA fits many market segments without modifications |
