If we connect an HDMI Encoder (e.g. 1080P P60 that supports SRT, RTMP, RTSP, RTMPS, UDP, HTTP, HLS) to the HDMI port of a Empiretech nvr7616-16p-2ai - we should be able to view the display remotely (via Wireguard then a Raspberry Pi hosting nomachine.)

Note: The HDMI encoder would have it's own IP on the home network, so, once in we should be able to see it, using a browser on the home Raspberry Pi that hosts nomachine.

However, if we want to have remote mouse and keyboard access - could we plug the USB port of the Raspberry Pi into the USB port of the NVR and use a laptop to control (or, perhaps, also the touchscreen and a pop-up keyboard on a phone)?

Or, would the USB part of my 'scheme' not work, please?

Edit: Just now ordered the HDMI encoder - will test and report back ...

When I looked at 'SmartPSS' it only mentioned MS versions of windows - and I don't do MS. Linux only.

DMSS appears to use a cloud link of some sort & I'm trying to simply, rather than add, layers of dependency/gatekeepers wherever I can.

OK re. reporting back what I discover. Thanks.
 
I don’t ever use SmartPSS but I believe you’re correct that there is only a Windows version available.

DMSS definitely doesn’t require any cloud connection.

If you already have WireGaurd setup and working just adding your NVR with the IP/Domain selection will get you up and going for live view and playback. Notifications will require a bit more configuring as we’re currently discussing in another thread
 
Yeah they dropped support for regular SmartPSS Aug '24. It had a security issue with how it communicated with the P2P servers.

Lite is rather lightweight and for me is a great live monitor and playback tool for my laptop.
