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?
I suppose there’s always a catch with them opening up for 3rd party support.
I was keen to move to Unifi primarily for a doorbell. I had a Hikvision which was very temperamental, and I didn’t want a cloud based one like Ring or Nest, so believe it or not, most of my decision was made around a stupid doorbell.
Luckily I live out where nobody rings my door bell :)
