 Posted: Wed Nov 28, 2007 2:45 pm Post subject: Is a Video Server the answer.... |
 |
|
|
I confess, I'm a little overwhelmed by all the information here. Maybe someone can give me a little guidance? I'm interested in setting up a surveillance system that consists of 3-4 IP network cameras. The wiring is already in place so that part seems straightforward. However, to access the system remotely I only have a single static IP address avialable. Do I need a video server to combine the feeds from mutiple IP cameras? Is there an alternative solution?

Hi,
Check out C-MOR, http://www.c-mor.com. One single box, up to 15 cams,
can handle direct access to all 15 cameras with one single IP address
through the internet and a service like DynDNS.
It works great for me with a C-MOR6.

you could use the software blueiris. once setup, it generates you a website, showing all live images of all attached cameras, and even gives you the opportunity to access all recorded files of the cameras (like those being recorded on motion)
if you like to check it out, send me a pm and I give you a guest account on my system.

You could certainly use a video server, although with that few cameras it shouldn't be more than a few hundred dollars.
Other options is a hosted solution. That may be an easier option depending on your connection.
One static address is not a problem.

Slow down, back up..
What type of cameras did you get?
Or..
When picking out a camera, get a camera that comes packaged with software for remote playback / viewing.

It's possible to look at the streams of thousands of IP cameras over a single external (static or dynamic) IP address using port forwarding. Each camera would have it's own port and could be accessed like that.
Viewing recorded images will depend on the functionality of the cameras you select unless like as suggested above you install some form of management application.
