I only want to catch my neighbors' dog crapping on my lawn.....
Hello,
I have a Philips SPC 900NC camera set up to monitor my backyard. I'm using the Vlounge software that came with it and have had numerous problems with it shutting down and generally acting like a piece of garbage software - which it is. I've Googled for an alternative program but want to try to sift through all the crap and buy something worthwhile and reliable the first time. I'd like to get some opinions on what program to buy and this group looks like it's filled with knowledgable people. I only want to monitor motion in my backyard without the errors and shutdowns I get with Vlounge. Any info would be appreciated. BTW, the Philips cam is exceptional - very nice picture, it sets up fairly easily and works with Linux. TIA, HJS |

use a PIR, mutt returned to it own garden. |

I've written 2 bits of software myself which you might find useful -
Mugshot, a surveillance app http://www.nimisis.com/projects/mugshot.php and Flix, a timelapse program http://www.nimisis.com/projects/flix.php Hope that helps in some way Dave |
