## Credits

All credits goes to @riogrande75 who wrote that complicated integration and @elad-bar who wrote the integration with MQTT in PHP.

Original code can be found in @riogrande75/Dahua and @elad-bar/DahuaVTO2MQTT.

This is basically a port to Node.js properly annotated with comments so it's easier for any contributor to help.

I might port it to Rust next for max performance (and fun).
