Re: User favorites for cameras?

Does Axis sell and provide support directly to the end user or do you have to go through a dealer network?

User favorites for cameras?

Maybe I am missing it but I am a bit surprised there aren't more threads discussing users' preferred/recommended camera choices. I recently moved and included the cameras w/ sale of my old house so I am starting over from an equipment standpoint. At my previous house I had Wirepath cameras from Snap...

Arlo and other consumer grade cameras

Does anyone know if the popular consumer grade cameras work with sighthound? I believe some, like Nest, don't give you any access to the stream. The camera I am looking at most closely is the Netgear Arlo, they have various models, some that use a proprietary base station (Arlo Pro) and some that us...

Re: Mac Mini as a sighthound server?

Has anyone used an Intel NUC for similar purpose? Having a very hard time bringing myself around to the mac mini, just given the 2014 specs compared to the '12 model (just doesn't seem compelling for a new purchase, given the chip options, unupgradeable memory etc).

Re: Mac Mini as a sighthound server?

Yes, I've seen that article it is somewhat helpful. I understand that I may have to adjust resolution for certain cams, is it better to do that within sighthound or to adjust the stream to lower res from the camera itself? Would one of the older quad core i7 mac minis be better suited than the newer...

Mac Mini as a sighthound server?

I am currently running sighthound on my aging iMac (2009), which runs pretty slow. I've thought about replacing with a newer iMac for sighthound as well as some other duties (music etc), although ideally would want to wait until they refresh it which seems to be taking forever w/ the current 21"...

Re: CPU hardware requirements for medium system

I'm currently running three 1.3MP 720p IP cameras off of a mac mini (late 2014, 2.6Ghz, 8gb ram) and it uses about 26% of the CPU, I will be adding one more 1.3MP and two 3.0MP cameras in the future, I will update and let you know of the CPU usage. Any update as far as how the mac mini is handling ...
