Surveillance Cameras

Hi All, I'm thinking of installing some WiFi surveillance cameras at my house and thought I'd ask if anyone here has experience with this TIA

They aren't wifi cameras, but I use the Ubiquiti G3 Flex cameras with poe injectors throughout my house/garages. The documentation says they require 48V poe, but I've verified they work with 24V also. My desktop PC is always on, so I threw yet another hard drive in it, used the free Ubiquiti software and have been fairly pleased with it. There's also a phone app that connects remotely to my desktop when I'm out and about to get to my camera streams and recordings, no subscription service required. I didn't have conduit between my house and nearest garage yet, so I used powerline adapters (TP-Link AV600) to get to the first garage and they work great just make sure you install them on the same leg of power and as close to your feed as possible for best results. I added receptacles right beside the breaker panels in the house and garage dedicated for the adapters and the signal is great. Between the lower and upper garage I have 2 big conduits with power, cat5e, and air hose, so wasn't an issue installing the camera up there.

Dear concerned Human being... If you want security then go wired and not WIFI... that is my opinion and... the truth. Where is any router or camera made now? Either it or I.T. is secure or it is not. No such thing as sort of pregnant exists? If you did not make the router yourself or know it was made here in the United States of America or put your country here then you do not know if it is secure. An entire operating system can be slipped into a main board and only the best of thermal forensics and a pristine comparison non compromised board can work to detect the compromise. No computer is safe. Our entire security infrastructure here in America is built in places where they can be and are compromised regularly... so there is no safe and private WIFI! period end of story? ... I am just an old blind vet. I have no credentials but my forty plus years experience as a targeted individual... I am a classic "conspiracy theorist" and I am proud of that label as it is a bright Badge Of Honor/pride in this Bizarro World if this is spam then I am not sorry and your spam filters are to blame. blessings chuck a blind Harper and advocate for Human Sovereignty

.NET C# Winforms I also use a React frontend so that I can control it via the WebApi remotely.

Looks very good I'll look at it Edit Hi Guy I downloaded the source code but I notice there are no .csproj files only a .sln so VS won't open it

The source code is way out of date, I need to update the github repository at some point. The install should work but I am going to take a guess that you would rather build it yourself.

Hi Guy thanks for replying - is the code still publicly available ? I'm interested to see how it all works before I use it - I haven't even decided on a camera yet , because of the hassle of running CAT5 to the cameras I was thinking of getting wireless ones but have been put off by some of them comments on here :-D I think I'll just buy one IP camera and have a play with it then expand when I have a better understanding of it all ( if that ever happens :-D ) thanks for your time.

I tried this, but took the cameras down after hackers took family-safe vids of me and transmogrified them into deep fakes that showed me dancing to the type of music noise @sanderrossel has frontal-lobe seizures listening to.

Hi Guy, I've tried to run your code, but it seems that the following projects are missing: - TeboCam\TeboCam.csproj [fixed by renaming the directory 'source_code' to 'TeboCam'] - vfw\vfw.csproj [not fixed, there is no such .csproj file] Maybe I am missing something :) Regards, Bradut

Hi Bradut, Completely my fault, the online repository is very out-of-date and I need to tidy things up. I am off on holiday next week(at home in lockdown instead of at home working :laugh:) so I will try and get the changes done and committed this weekend - I will let you know once the changes are in the repository. Regards Guy

Hi Guy, Thank you very much. I have been interested in this subject a couple of years ago, and decided to spend my spare time this month improving my IP WebCam hobby project, therefore was curious to see your implementation. My project controls the camera via CGI commands which I plan to replace with absolute PTZ ONVIF commands. In my case, preset points are not reliable because this camera keeps on changing its "aiming" direction after each reset, so I need to "recalibrate" it somehow. I am thinking of offsetting the preset points with absolute (x,y) values after each reset, to compensate the deviation. Since this is an weather camera accessible online via a web-browser, I will access the ONVIF PTZ API via a WebAPI. If I used it as a security camera, I would just run its desktop companion software, and dedicate my spare time to other hobby projects :). Best regards, Bradut GitHub - bradut/ipwebcam-viewer: Web Viewer for my IP WebCam (PTZ)[^]
