Chowmainsoft has released its UniFi driver for Control4 — the first third-party solution to deliver recorded video playback directly on Control4 touchscreens and mobile apps. This breakthrough enables users to review UniFi Protect recordings within Control4, marking a significant milestone in home automation and surveillance integration.
The UniFi driver provides deep integration between Control4 systems and the UniFi ecosystem, including Protect cameras, sensors, viewport, routers, access points, switches, and network site management — all under a single license. This creates a unified, cost-effective solution for dealers and end users.
At the heart of this release is a new capability: users can access a complete history of events from UniFi Protect, and now, for the first time on a third-party device, view image snapshots as well as play back recorded video from the NVR within Control4’s native interfaces. This industry-first feature combines real-time monitoring with retrospective event review.
Beyond video playback, the driver supports advanced camera functions such as live streaming, snapshots, PTZ control, and AI-based detection events including license plate and face recognition. Sensor support extends the system with motion detection, temperature and humidity monitoring, and door status tracking. On the networking side, Control4 users gain functionality including the ability to block or unblock network devices, authorize guests, manage hotspot vouchers, reboot network hardware, power cycle PoE ports, and view detailed device information — all through Control4 interfaces.
To celebrate the launch, Chowmainsoft is offering a 25% discount on the UniFi driver until September 30. Dealers can redeem this offer with coupon code UNIFI25, which can also be stacked with volume licensing discounts for even greater savings.
Designed as a long-term integration platform, the UniFi driver ensures ongoing value with all future UniFi product support and enhancements delivered as free upgrades under the same license.
