I need to find portions of video, and I already know the start and end times. Is it possible to call an API that returns acess to the video for a specified period of time, roughly something like:

 

video_buffer = get_video_clip(camera_name, start_time, end_time)

 

Thanks for your help!

I know of no public API that can be used. If you don't have a recording of it to peruse, perhaps subscribing to CVR (continuous video recording) would be helpful. That way you have access to the whole stream for this purpose. If you need to capture a portion of CVR, you must use 3rd party screen capture software to do so.
