Since everyone has been telling Chelle to get surveillance cameras to record her house if the neighbors show up, who here actually has such devices?
Even before Chelle's situation came up I was working on setting up my video camera to connect to my PC and record video any time it detected motion. I finally got it setup and working but I must say I'm very disappointed with the results. It does capture video but the quality is poor and at night, even with my cameras night shot on it really can't see anything.
Once I had one camera working I realized that I would like to have more cameras setup. One to cover the back door like I have right now, one to cover my truck, one to cover the front door, and one to cover the intersection that I live by as routinely I here people locking up their brakes so they don't hit someone. I also want to be able to see at night.
Anyone have suggestions or recommendations on how to do this and what the price will be?
My current system is a Sony Handycam connected by firewire to my computer which runs the monitoring software.
