I am going to be trying some software to handle camera surveillance. I have four cameras that I would like to centrally control. (if possible)
- Two D-Link IP cameras (DCS-1000W and DCS-900) - Two Netbotz cameras (two cams on one Netbotz 500 system)
Right now, I am using IPView, which came with the D-Link cameras and it is very flakey, it doesn't run in the background, and it sometimes just stops working.
The Netbotz have nice software that I could keep using if I had to.
So, does anyone have any experience with any open source camera software for surveillance? I am going to test drive the following and I was looking for suggestions or things to look out for:
- http://www.zoneminder.com/ - http://www.silicontao.com/software/lvs/doc/information.html - http://gspy.sourceforge.net/
My objective is to have motion detection and recording. I will probably dump them on to a Windows file server.
Thanks,
