We have a number of clients that are expecting us to be able to intergrate their POS systems with NXW. We have made no promises with them on timeframe of this feature being released.

I was wondering where on the roadmap these features are and if anyone has had luck with a temporary solution? i.e. having another program logging the pos data with timestamps, then using the http api to fetch the desired footage?

  Hi Chris - I can speak to the roadmap. We have 2 features coming out in 2.4 - which should be available mid-to-late summer - that will help you with this issue.

  Feature 1 is Bookmarks. Bookmarks will allow the "tagging" of a section of video related to an event. Bookmarks can be triggered by internal system events, integrated system events via Nx dev tools, or even created manually by a user (for example a guard sees suspicious activity, or is reviewing video and notices strange behavior and wants to highlight this in case it is needed for later review.

  Feature 2 goes hand-in-hand with Bookmarks and is currently known in-house as "Generic Events". Generic Events is envisioned to allow users to create simple integrations with 3rd party systems - especially Point-of-Sale systems - and allow automatic Bookmark creation when an event is received from an external system.

  If you'd like to be a Beta tester for these features as we approach release please let us know and we'll be happy to add you to our list of Beta testers for Nx Witness.

  Hi @...,

  I realize this is an old question - but those features are now part of Nx Witness. Check out the latest version if you haven't yet.
