ZM_event_notification with hooks/without hooks

Post by streety111 »

What is the fundamental difference in setting zm_event_notification with and without hooks? What will I lose or gain from this?

Thanks for your reply in advance.

The entire concept of hooks is to “influence” whether or not to actually send out a notification for a new event. If you are already using hooks, you are likely using the most popular hook that I wrote, which actually does object/person/face detection on the image(s) that constitute the event to make an intelligent decision on whether you really want to be notified of the event.
