Sprouty Posted December 31, 2010 Share Posted December 31, 2010 Hi, I'm not sure if this is the right forum section, but I'm hoping someone can help me anyway. I'm looking to install a security camera. what i would like to do and would appreciate some comment on is i would like my ubuntu box to receive the cameras feed and record it. I've seen a few program that look able to do it. The problem i have is i'm not sure what hardware would be compatible to ubuntu and would really like some suggest or comments. The current camera i have is like:http://www.amazon.co.uk/Weatheproof-Vision-Office-Security-adaptor/dp/B001C21KIG/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1293788394&sr=8-1 . Although if you can recommend any other that would be grate Many Thanks, Sprouty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Infiltrator Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 What's the video quality on these cameras like? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sprouty Posted January 5, 2011 Author Share Posted January 5, 2011 the video quality on the camera i have looks tidy, I haven't got a long enough lead to give it a good test. When the cables & parts for it turn up i can post some screenshots so you can see for your self. Cheers, Sprouty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, Sprouty I've been meaning to buy one of those cameras, but since I am not sure what the video quality is like, I am a bit concerned. If you could post the results, it will be much appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
