Milestone ONVIF drivers

Milestone is currently conformant with ONVIF profiles S, T, G and M (see also ONVIF conformance ) and has created standard drivers to facilitate the integration of compliant devices into XProtect. Conformance for Profile Q is no longer maintained as it is deprecated from 2022 onwards. Some functionality related to Profile Q might still be available in XProtect.

This Driver Overview document defines the settings, features, events, and profiles that ONVIF and ONVIF16 channel driver support. There are in details which settings are dynamic, how drivers handle the events, what is necessary to be set up in order some functionalities to work.

Milestone constantly updates and adds new functionality to our ONVIF drivers, making sure that they are compliant with the most recent official ONVIF specifications.

A device fully compliant to ONVIF profiles S, T, G or M will likely work with Milestone XProtect, and be able to send and receive video, audio, metadata and configuration data – however it will not necessarily be directly supported by Milestone Technical Support.

In case of any issues, please note Milestone Technical Support services cover only the devices our driver teams have worked to test directly. For more information, please check the Supported Device list.
