what is a good, cheap, camera security system? (1 camera)?




coryw68122


I would like an outdoor single camera security system that can detect motion and begin recording. It should be able to store the video onto a video tape or my computer or something. I need it so that if my car or something has been broken into in my driveway or parked on the street, I will have it on video for the police.

If there is some system that has a light to be triggered with the video that would be good as well.

I am 16 so I don't have alot of money to spend, but my windshield was broken last night for no apparent reason, and I feel helpless in this situation, and I can't afford to continually replace the windshield if it is broken again.

There are plenty of external cameras that can record onto a DVR, or your computer. However, I think it would need to be running perpetually. Motion detector cameras work fine inside, where it will automatically begin when someone walks past. In this case, you would only set it to run when no one is home. Outside, a leaf, a bird, anything can trigger your motion detector. It would have to run all of the time. You could choose not to run it during the day. Run it at night and delete the video the next day (for storage purposes) if nothing happened.

However, you need to check into your local laws. Cameras are not allowed to invade other people's privacy. I would guess that videotaping the street would not be ok.

Watching security cameras on phone?

I am able to watch my cameras from my phone on my home network but as soon as I leave they stop working. What might the problem be? My router and modem are both from time warner cable. Thank you


Answer
When you view your camera footage through your home network, your viewing software has no problems connecting to your camera since they both share IP addresses in the same subnet. Viewing your home security camera over the Internet usually requires that you enable this service in your camera's software, and likely registering with a cam viewing website service. Your security camera software would connect with this external service, and you would view your camera's footage through this site. You need to check your owner's manual or contact the manufacturer directly for exact instructions. If you post the exact make and model of your camera, someone may be able to assist further.
