Re: video recording server

This was slashdot'd a month or two ago. It had a really nice 3 page
writeup on the using the software with d-link cameras that was worth the
read. What was real nice was the 16 camera capacity and the ability to
do local and off-site camera monitoring (IP based camera required) with
motion and continuous capture. They offer a liveCD to try before you
bother to install the product which I thought was a great feature.
