I want to setup a camera monitoring for my house and some rooms. I need to bee able to view the cameras remotely and and also do recording if possible. I could find some camera brands like dahua cams but having briefly tested them they. Seem to rely on acwmtralized cloud and proprietary visualization software.
What are you recommendation? This is not a professional setup I would at max have 3 cameras.

I’m working on one called Soteria. It’s still early in development, but I’m focusing on both privacy and cloud availability.
It uses any WebDAV store to upload footage, but it’s designed to work best with my own WebDAV server Nephele. This lets it upload footage to any S3 compatible blob storage, end to end encrypted.
That way if your cameras go offline, you can watch the last footage they were able to upload.
Like I said, it’s in early development, so it’s not yet ready to use, but I’m going to be putting more work into it soon and try to get it to a place where you can use it.
It works with any V4L2 compatible camera, so laptops, webcams, and Raspberry Pi cameras should all work.
What camera hardware is compatible with Soteria?
Any camera that uses the V4L2 system on Linux. So, mostly webcams.
One important note is that IP cams are not supported yet, but I’d like to add support for them.
