OK, it=92s so dead here today I decided to finally put up my CCTV
camera=92=
s (4x low lux B&W IR type and a colour Comfort doorphone cam).

I=92ve got an Extron MAV-128 video matrix switcher and I=92m going to feed
=
them into that for the time being. I=92ve also got a Tivo modded for CCTV
r=
ecording (but only constant roll-over recording =96 not ideal). I really
wa=
nt to record any movement from any of the 5 camera=92s onto a PC. I=92m
loo=
king for s/w and ways of doing this. I guess there are two ways of doing
th=
is:

1)	fit PIR=92s with each camera (which I will be doing in some of the
locat=
ions anyway) and have Comfort/HV/ACE switch the active zone to the PC
which=
would then record via some simple software (what s/w???)
2)	Use some kind of multi-input camera card (as discussed many times on
thi=
s list) and let that decide which zone has been triggered by it=92s
softwar=
e

Any thoughts?

Paul.
