Django01 0 Posted March 30, 2014 Hi, I'm new to ip-cameras...and have a basic question. I want to put about 5 cameras around my house. I don't want these cameras to record constantly...only when motion is detected. Well, if someone walks to the back of my house, I assume that not all cameras will record at the same time because they will be triggered one by one. So finally, I think that the maximum number of cameras that will be recording are ...let's say 2. Recording will be done on my computer (blue iris) on a local disk. The recordings will be backed up as soon as possible to the cloud. I'm reading here on the forum about people having issues with recording at the full frame rate. Will this be a problem in my setup? PS: I'm planning on installing a gigabit switch, but still have a 10/100 router, which i think is not sufficient. Thanks, Herman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cbodbyl 0 Posted March 31, 2014 It's unlikely to be a problem. That being said it really depends on the resolution and compression of the cameras you want to use. Can you share with us the model of cameras you're looking at? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Django01 0 Posted April 1, 2014 Thanks for your reply. The cameras I want to use are the Hikvision ds-2cd2032-i (3Mp cameras). Herman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
