I’m looking for security cameras that will integrate with my home server and nas. I want ones that record to my nas without some BS subscription service, and ideally run FOSS server logic I can deploy on my server. I’ve got one camera now that sorta does what I want, except the software isn’t FOSS and I’ve been unable to add the features that are missing.

My ideal requirements are:

  • Good camera quality
  • Direct powered (no battery)
  • Connects via wifi to my network
  • Records to remote nas (no cloud “subscription” requirement)
  • Highly configurable via FOSS software
  • Monitoring software runs on server with local web access
  • QOL features like 2-way audio, audio recording, motion sensing, night vision, etc.

Does anyone have suggestions that meat what I’m looking for or close?

    I just ran into a problem with the cheaper reolink cameras. I didn’t realize that some don’t support rtsp or ONVIF. I was able to solve this with a github project neolink: https://github.com/QuantumEntangledAndy/neolink In less than 10min I was able to install neolink and get my $30 reolink camera working with my NVR.
