Inksight NVR

Inksight NVR is a free, open-source, local-first Network Video Recorder (NVR) and Video Management System built natively for Windows. Instead of requiring Docker, Linux virtual machines, YAML configuration files, or paid cloud subscriptions, Inksight installs via a single self-contained Windows Setup.exe that bundles the runtime, go2rtc WebRTC/MSE streaming engine, FFmpeg, WinSW 24/7 background Windows Service, and offline YOLO11 AI models.

Key features:

• Adaptive 4K Live Matrix: Streams lightweight sub-streams in multi-camera grids and automatically hot-swaps to native 4K on solo or fullscreen views with unobstructed camera header bars.
• Direct-to-Disk 24/7 Recording: Writes raw H.264/H.265 RTSP packets straight to MP4 files with 0% background video transcoding, circular disk quota management, and interactive 24-hour timeline scrubbing.
• Offline YOLO11 AI & DirectML GPU Support: Switch live between bundled YOLO11 Nano, Small, and Medium models running locally on CPU or NVIDIA, AMD, and Intel GPUs via Windows DirectML.
• Smart Polygon Zones & Stationary Vehicle Suppression: Draw inclusion/exclusion zones over live feeds and automatically suppress parked driveway vehicles while alerting immediately on people, pets, or departing vehicles.
• Built-in ONVIF/RTSP Discovery & Alerts: One-click LAN discovery and presets for Reolink, Dahua, Hikvision, Amcrest, Lorex, and Tapo cameras, plus instant snapshot/clip alerts via Telegram, Ntfy, Pushover, Webhook, or SMTP email.
