Thanks for the in depth information. I have an Axis analog to IP converter currently, but my analog camera has been offline unfortunately. Are you using H.264 to save all the video?
My only gripe in building a very robust solution as you posted is pretty expensive. I may use it for a business warehouse, but am hesitant with the home due to cost (upwards of probably 4k or much more)…
Do you also have a home security system? I was thinking of building my own with the parts you can buy off the shelf now and setup my own wireless notification system (to prevent cut phone lines) instead of having some monthly monitoring fee. Watching too many movies makes me think the monitoring company can do an “inside” job if they wanted and I didn’t want to have them call the cops for false alarms (nor pay the monthly fee of course). Do you have any recommendations if you looked into that as well?
When funds permit, I may do like a hybrid system where some camera’s are higher rez (maybe outside where they can get car license plates) and lower cheaper ones inside…
