Hi all,

I have recently found this forum while searching for CCTV cameras and enclosures for my job, which is in architecture. This site is an incredibly valuable source of information!

While I first discovered this site for work, I am primarily focused in installing my own system at home based on Macintosh hardware and SecuritySpy client software. I know that the industry somewhat frowns on the Macintosh, rather preferring the PC and ActiveX based control. However, I'd rather not mix up my platforms on my network any more than necessary.

Thanks, and I'm looking forward to joining in on the conversations.

Thomas

QUESTION: Why is there always enough time to go back and fix it right a second time??

Hi, and welcome. You could look here for a recent post on using a Java viewing client,
http://www.cctvforum.com/viewtopic.php?t=13273&highlight=

I assume you are referring to a Mac being used for viewing a remote image server or DVR. If you also intend to use it as an image server, DVR, or network video recorder, then you might be breaking new ground!

Kiwi, those are some good questions; and I'm trying to sort them out as I'm new to this. I appreciate any input.

I have posted my reply in the 'System Design' section as its more appropriate there, i think.
