The geovision looks like one good option....resident computer geek here. But, back to the multiplexer question. If I get a color multiplexer, how do i do the conversion to a standard TV signal? Which models/brands are suggested?

Good question. Remote viewing wouldn't be out of the question, but this is more of a church application where the parents never leave the building. Would a PC based DVR be a better choice?

Just a couple of followup questions. It seems that most multiplexors output their signal with a BNC connector for the monitor connections. How do I interface or convert this for connection to a standard LCD TV? How will the picture be on an LCD tv knowing that often times the images from a standard TV source on an LCD is stretched? Any suggestions of which multiplexer/dvr to get. Cost is always an issue. It would be nice to have something we can use a remote control with to change from a 3x3 view to a full screen view for one of the feeds.

I have been asked to head up the desgin and implementation of a monitoring system for our church children's rooms. What we would like to do is to have atleast 6-8 rooms with camera's in them. We would like this fed to an LCD TV where parents can watch their little darlings without having to go in the rooms. My guess is that this will require some sort of multiplexor so that we can take the 6-9 video feeds and convert them into a single signal to feed to the TV. We don't currently have any plans for recording. Can someone make some suggestions?
