    Blue Iris software on your computer and pick your poison on IP cams running on batteries, or PoE cams, etc.

    Hard to beat if you want to get "tweaky" with it. Remote view/control app for your smart phone, etc. Has all the bells and whistles.

    My wife likes to put a yard banner/flag out front and I can tune that little spot out, set pixel size detection, web access, etc. Highly tunable but maybe not for the non technical.

    I only started with old cell phones and a free IP WebCam app, but need to step up to some better cameras. The frame rate capturing from the phones is too jittery.

    Sadly, it doesn't work with Ring (ring's limit) but there's a few other doorbell cams out there that work with it, I just haven't picked one myself.

    There's other folks here that use it way more than I do, Maybe they'll chime in. There was another thread it was discussed in as well if you can find it.

Waste your time making you ask permission for things you have a natural right to own. "Anyone that thinks the communists won't turn off your power for being on COAR15 is a fucking moron."
