    Is there a good site with solid advice on placement of cameras?

    I have about one-acre property and long house with 3 entrances plus garage. I am up to 6 cameras and I still feel I don't have solid coverage. There are still large swaths of property not covered. Not really worried about crime, because I am in a safe neighborhood. I am just the kind of person...

    1080p or above PTZ camera options on the budget?

    Ugh... might just need to go the route of mounting several of the turrets and go that route. PTZ seems to be still on the expensive side and resolutions suck in general Almost all of my cameras are LTS 3MP turrets. Would love to find as reliable but bit less costly turret. $75 a pop for 3MP...

    1080p or above PTZ camera options on the budget?

    I did see that one in my search. Unfortunately, it isn't IP66 rated. I don't have much of roof overhang to hide it

    1080p or above PTZ camera options on the budget?

    I have couple older Foscam PTZs and I really don't care for their reliability. THey are mounted in outside enclosures with IR turned off. Would be nice to get a PTZ camera or two that is bit more reliable and hopefully higher resolution. >$150 would be ideal, but I realize I might be dredging...

    Yeah I have direct to disk recording turned on. Probably getting i7-4790 might be smarter choice. Same HP Elitedesk and Optiplex on fleebay?

    8x 3MP cams at 10FPS each and i5 2557M can't handle even 5 cams

    I am using BI on older Asus Zenbook with Intel Core i5 2557M and 8GB of RAM. Issue is that I just got 3 more 3MP IP cams and since 5 cams were maxing out CPU at 3MP and 10FPS, I am not even going to try to do 8x of them. Especially when I have a lot of shadows moving from trees, it just cooks...
