    Window system for a flat \ apartment

    Foscam R2 No need to worry about the IR, it's well lit outside so I disabled it. I'm not a fan of those sensor alarms as a friend of mine had one at it would go off at random. Plus I've seen the cats in my area sitting on my bike which would likely set it off.

    I got a Foscam R2 and paired it with Blue Iris in the end Blue Iris is great Foscam is the biggest mistake and if anyone has a recommendation to replace it with, I'm all ears
  3. You could try Shinobi It's still early in its dev life and it's rather fiddly still but it has potential I personally prefer Blue Iris to Shinobi but things may change in the future.
  4. Hi So basically, I'm looking at setting up a basic CCTV system using a Raspberry Pi and an IP Camera so I can keep an eye on my motorbike and the parking in general. However I've got a few questions and issues which I need to overcome. Things to overcome. 1: I live in a flat (apartment for you guys over the pond) 2: I am not aloud to mount externally which means it's going to be mounted in a window sill in my bedroom. 3: I'm on a budget What camera would you recomend? I need something that's Wireless IP based and is okay at night vision. How would I mount it? I know the IR will be problematic unless I can eliminate the reflection. It's going to be behind a double glazed window. What software would you recomend? I know Zoneminder does a software package for the Pi but are there any alternatives? thanks Alistair
