What are folks using these days? Reolink seemed to be a popular choice 2 years ago. I’ll start looking here.
I’ve been using Eufy (yeah, I know). Apparently, Eufy has a way to transfer clips to a NAS via RTSP. However, I’ve been seeing users complain that the transferred clips end up with degraded quality. Not great. De-great-ed.
My home server has plenty of space on it, so it would be cool if I could save clips (or all the video footage?) directly to my ZFS pool.
What do folks’ security camera setup look like?
2 reolink and 1 amcrest cameras, Frigate container with a coral tpu.
The reolink cameras have slightly better picture quality, but they are shit at compressing RTSP streams, so way more data flows to get the same result as the amcrest.
