Could I do this with an RPi 4 B 4GB, I wonder? I’m just About to have mine arrive and I would love to have a couple CCTV cameras in my place.
As long as you are just doing capture and aren't attempting to do anything where a re-encode of the video stream is needed then absolutely. You'll need something other than a microSD card though to write the video too.
Brilliant, yah I’d just want it captured and stored on like a WD NAS HDD attached to a computer in the basement.
Or if I ever get my ass in gear and set up my GSA…
Yes, elit does take some messing around to get working though, so I wouldn't recommend unless you want to spend a bit messing around with configuring a server. (Make sure to back up the pi's SD card so if it fails you can easily replace it)
Oooo thanks for reminding me to back up my PiHole too!
