Best wireless security camera for around $500?
tomcctv replied to Someone10101's topic in IP/Megapixel Cameras and Software Solutions
Thansk for the link! Nice clean enclosure and fanless too. Unfortunately, I hate embedded systems because the OS is written/customized specifically for that hardware and is dependent upon the manufacturer for update. Generic system using off the shelf product, I can get better and faster support from the community. I build systems for fun and for family/friends when ask too. Only then, do I spend days researching like I'm doing now for security cameras. I'll call around later today to some shop around me and see if they carry Vivotek camers to see if I can see it in person and try it out before I buy from the local shop. i understand you like to do research. ok your built nvr / ip compatabitlity ??? licence ???. and you will be lucky if you can get a Vivotek ip and be able to take it back .... you have to programme ip ....... it becomes used. -

i dont understand what you need to do ...... to do what you have explained why not put the android app on every device you have. (samething) if you have the image on 1 android and you stream it to another .... the other would still need the app to view -

Thanks! I didn't know that. Unfortunately, outside mount wasn't a viable option given that I'll be moving out in about 3 months. After the home I was renting got robbed, I'm out. Also, I wanted to get a Mobotix or Axis that had a 180 FOV, but putting that on a one story home....I don't expect a $1400+ camera to be around that long. If I do decide to mount the Vivoktek IP8332 outside at the new home, at least a $400 loss isn't as big of a lost compare to $1400+. the post you have put from were you are buying the camera. i would say go with a distributor. the place you have posted has nothing to do with cctv you will get no support at all. if you have never built a nvr before you can buy for far less than build i.e pc/software/ licence http://www.avermedia.com/AVerDiGi/Product/Detail.aspx?id=281 -

the Vivotek IP8332 is going to be a problem for you as it has ir. you will not get any image at night with this camera on a stand looking out of a window (you cant put an ir camera behind glass) -

just a friday funny note, looks like people have found away to get passed face recognition. so if you see a guy around your property doing this then he is up to no good. halfway though the film you will hear why he is shacking his head

with the likes of facebook / twitter how long will it be before something like this is added to a dvr. ( i can just see rory reaching for his laptop) Augmented reality helps collect info like email / phone numbers from facebook / twitter pages.

google chrome or firefox does not allow you to use active x so he need to run it in i.e. ActiveX is only supported by Internet Explorer (and browsers built on top of Internet Explorer) on Windows. Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, and others do not support ActiveX

Hi maxnca. you must have been looking at an old avermedia. they all have the same GUI on live screen as over the internet. you have 3 ways of remote viewing with the avers ..... webveiwer / remote console veiwer / imatrix viewer. webviewer is only for quick viewing i.e internet cafe or on a pc that you dont use all the time. remote console is the same GUI as the dvr screen
