Thanks very much for the info!

Hi 51cent, Thanks for the reply; it's much appreciated. So either this 2mp: http://in.dahuasecurity.com/in/products/ipc-hdw5231r-z-3651.html or the 4mp: http://in.dahuasecurity.com/in/products/ipc-hdw5431r-z-3661.html would be what to get? I assume both would work with Blue Iris? The PC is an Intel i5 4670 @ 3.4GHz / 8GB RAM / SSD and good graphics card. It's a home theatre PC so it's on all the time. I've attached an image of where I want the initial (test) camera to go. I was thinking of putting it where the red dot is, and I want it to point down so that at the bottom of the view would be the windows and door but also angled so that as much of the rest of the area is covered. Does this look good to you, and would I need the wall mount bracket: http://in.dahuasecurity.com/in/products/pfb203w-1044.html ? Cheers.

Hi all, I'm looking for a home system that will run on my Win 10 PC at home. It runs 24/7. I've been looking on multiple sites to try to find compatible products, but there is so much confusion out there that I thought I'd try asking in a forum. Hopefully I can get some help here. What I'm looking for is the following: 3 (maybe 4) Wall-mounted cameras Outside/Waterproof PoE Colour + Night Vision Don't need zoomable Preferably dome for neatness Detection areas to be set up HD (1080p or above) I'm happy to pay for software as long as I can be confident the cameras will work with it. I'd like to have the option of emails for certain situations such as intruder detection. I asked a network guy who installs CCTV and he recommended these: http://in.dahuasecurity.com/in/products/ipc-hdw4431m-3501.html but he also included a NVR (the Dahua DHI-NVR4104), which I don't want, as I'd rather use my PC. However, if his advice is sound, I'm willing to reconsider letting him do this, even though the cost would be far higher. Any advice welcome. Cheers, Paul
