basically there isn't exactly what you ask for...but if you don't mind delving into Linux, then ZoneMinder might work for you...

low cost ones that might interest you are:
blue iris
cyeweb by novosun
a reasonably priced one, that I've used and works well is Visec

You get what you pay for, so in this case, nothing  .

Kalpesh,
Thanks for your help, I tried but it failed, cause the NUUO software need choose camera brand name and model number.
That mean, we should pay for NUUO, then they just can add our IP camera list on it! So disappointed with that! That just can say business just business.
My clients in Europe told me that they always use NUUO for Hybird system, so our IP camera lost the market.
Nest step, we should talk with NUUO for this issue. Have no ideal how much we should pay for them.

Hi,
Good morning!!
NUUO support major brands with there major models...
I don't think they will charge you for adding your camera in there list!!
Only you have to share your API with them...and your system should have that much share in the market!!
If that Europion customer has a global precence ; you can approch NUUO that way also...
certainly it's a bussiness deal....you have to directly spk. to them...
and should commit certain bussinesss terms and all...
i m don't aware of much about this comercials since i m into technical part only at my organisation..
good luck!!

I don't know of any company that would charge to add support for a camera. At the same time that doesn't mean they are going to jump for joy at you approaching them with an SDK. Development time is not cheap and throwing more developers at a project does not make it go faster. As such development time is one thing they won't be willing to waste. There are a couple of factors in play:
1. Do their customers want to buy your cameras? If the answer is no, then don't bother. If it won't make them any money they won't be interested.
2. How hard does your SDK make it to integrate? If you have a ****** activeX control that needs a wrapper written for it then it's going to take longer.
3. Your country of origin plays a factor. Dealing with manufacturers in China always adds a layer of risks from poor quality control to the fear of stolen code in the SDK.

Yes!!
Considering all these facts ( mentioned in detail by thomas ) ....
I write my Suggestion to directly Contact NUUO ...if NUUO is the only option left behind!!!
About China Market ..yes! it's alwyas a risk factor........
In india , our market is most influenced with China product just because o f the cheepest product with all decto featurs of famous brand!!!
I am even surprise to find so many New brands people talk about on this forum
Yes...lead time of such development is around 1 day to some 2-3 months!!!
I remeber we have done one small AXIS camera integration with our access software in 1 days time...
But do not disappoint ...JUst do it man...let conditions decide the success!!!

Axis is an exception rather then a rule. They make it painfully easy to pull the basic video stream from their software. When you start talking about more painful things like integrating proprietary software from the camera....development time goes up.

You are right, Thomas
Here situation was very difficult in China, too many people doing this, when I was join this field, just around 3-5 manufacturers, now around 300-400. damm...
Here, people just care fast money, if they saw what kind of products has profit, they will join it hundres and hundres. when this field break, can not keep own fast money for them, they will out find any other field.
So, that competitive here can not image in your country or other country. If you want keep quality, your cost must be higher, but buyer from global market, they want cheaper things from China, they will inquiry from you or many others, you want business? ok, going down for your price. So I said that just business, they even don't know a good thing should be has little more cost. That situation push us one side keep quality, another side need cut down cost. Really hard work now!
And global economy going down so fast, the U.S. Dollar bring us big problem, all our price still doing with USD, also customer can not accept Euro. Every month we lost around USD1000 for money change.

I very much agree! There is no point to integrate a camera that is no one to use, unless the integration needs just couple hours (such as Http/rtsp at standard h.264/mpeg4/mjpeg). ActiveX with proprietary codec is the most difficult situation and we always want to avoid. Some SDK are not even complete. As you approach the middle, you eventually find that with the decent SDK the integration is impossible.
My comments to the camera company are, (1) your codec should always compliant to ISO standard, (2) support standard protocol, such as rtp or Http to stream data. (3) For advance feature, provide a pure c library.
