Hello,
Can you please give me a hint on how many cameras and in what resolution approximately I will able to run with that CPU's:
http://ark.intel.com/products/78942/Int ... e-1_40-GHz
http://ark.intel.com/products/81019/Int ... e-1_90-GHz
http://ark.intel.com/products/81018/Int ... e-1_90-GHz
http://ark.intel.com/products/80274/Int ... o-1_83-GHz
And what is the video encoding input format is the best to lower done the CPU usage?

Hi shadowbit1234,
It's hard to say exactly how many cameras you'll be able to run as there are many factors that can affect CPU usage. This article describes many of these factors and also includes a few example setups with various camera running at https://www.sighthound.com/support/system-requirements. There are links to compare the CPU's which may give you somewhat of an idea.

Re: CPU Compare
thanks Devin
I already seen it need approx info is possible.
Also, what is the video encoding input format is the best to lower done the CPU usage?

Hi shadowbit1234,
Unfortunately we are unable to give out such an estimate due to the variety of factors involved. The best we can do is give the information and examples to compare against in the link we provided.
As for the encoding question - reading MJPEG takes slightly less CPU to decode, but uses more network bandwidth.

Re: CPU Compare
thank you, can you recommand network cam's that will work best with the solution and able to stream MJPEG?
Looking for HD outdoor/indoor including night vision.

Hi shadowbit1234,
I'm unfortunately not great at camera recommendations as when I have access to specific models it's usually just for testing and getting to a "does it work" point, rather than getting to review or live with the camera itself.
The only comments I can really make confidently -
* You get what you pay for. The lower end tends to be mostly rebranded or slightly tweaked off the shelf components, trying to compete on cost and skimping everywhere else. For instance, sitting in front of my I have a 3 cameras that all look identical other than the logo, all cost under $100, and are all quite unpleasant to use.
* Read reviews from people who own the camera, whether on amazon or another site. They've lived with it, if they love it or hate it they'll let you know. Be wary of the hate posts for being user error, but if there are a lot it's a bad sign.
* Check out the manufacturer's website. If they don't have one, or it has no real content, avoid. They should have easy access to firmware updates, manuals, and tech support. If they don't, or if there tech support forum is filled with issue after issue, avoid. Axis for example makes it very easy to obtain information and support.
Perhaps other users will have some specific recommendations.
