Searching for a good cctv solution

sponge_b0b · Sep 8, 2018

Hello everyone,

I need one or two CCTV with whom I can do the following:

■live view from a computer
■record when motion detected
■good definition >= 1280
■sharp image (good lens, good sensor)
■angle ~110

It can be either two IP-camera or two analogue linked to a NPR (or equivalent)
It could be nice if for the recording I can choose the FPS

If you have any good resource where I can dig into it, it will be really appreciate

Do you have a budget? AXIS is one of the biggest IP camera providers. GeoVision and Hikvision are two lower priced options. With IP cameras, your NVR could be a commercial NAS unit. Thecus, Synology and QNAP have video recording software for their NAS units.

Be very cautious about your expectations of "record on motion".
If this is an outside camera...spiders, and their prey.

You may get several hours of this little lady spinning her web, then the panic of whatever it caught, then the feast:

Yes "nuisance" activation can be a problem. It could be shadows from trees moving in the wind, or a US flag on your front porch. You can definitely get footage you don't really care about.

kanewolf :

My last system had a 10x10 grid for each camera. You could tell it to ignore whichever squares you wanted.

But lots of things triggered it. Cloud shadows, a rabbit.
At night, a passing car headlights, even on the interior cameras.

Before I had figured out just to turn it off, I had it set on "motion detect", and "email on motion detect".
Go on vacation. 1,000 emails later....lol
