Hello,
Currently, we have 5 webcam modules, connected to an rtsp server on a pc, which is then accessed by a Dahua NVR. The NVR also speaks to about 20 other IP cameras.
Everything with the webcams, seems a bit dodgy to me, and unprofessional.
So i guess my question is, what's the best way to hook up multiple small cameras, to a camera server? and does anyone know of software that. when triggered, will record a small portion of video, and save it to a folder? or is this something I should be doing on ffmpeg?
Thanks!
Brad
For context, we are watching a science experiment live, with lots of dark spaces and intricate places to get cameras, our current webcam modules are in 3d printed cases. We struggle because the PC doesn't always handle 5/6 cameras at the same time well and then the server struggles to take so much data too. We are about to add 8 more cameras to the system and want to see if the current solution is a bad decision.
