The onvif device server is a library used for the implementation of the profile S of ONVIF which is designed for IP-based video systems. A Profile S device (e.g., an IP network camera or video encoder) is one that can send video data over an IP network to a Profile S client.
An example configuration of an ONVIF system may look like the next picture:
The library manages all the supported ONVIF requests and the necessary modifications of the streams by using the implementation of different interfaces.

Extra functionalities supported
AutoDiscovery: The clients will be able to detect the onvif server when it starts.
AutoSave: The programmer can enable and disable the autosave function, it outosaves every time there is a change in configuration or media profile.
