Anyone know of self-hostable security cameras? - eviltoast

Edit: ideally wifi cameras that I can solar power.

Looking to replace my Arlo cameras with something self-hostable. Arlo lets you store on a USB stick, but there’s no way to get out from under their cloud, which gets more expensive all the time.

    Many selfhosted NVRs have been suggested. Personally ive tried:

    iSpy

    Frigate

    Zoneminder

    Shinobi

    Ended up settling on zoneminder at this stage.

    For cameras themselves i just want to point out the OpenIPC project - opensource firmware if youre technically inclined

    Edit: I’m hesitant to recomment OpenIPC now since the main streamer is closed source. Thingino is fully open and developed by some of the devs who didn’t agree with the closed source portion

      Openipc looks interesting. Just did a quick search and it’s kind of difficult to find a camera that specifies it’s chip.

        Yeah, I’m willing to try it if I knew which cameras are supported, not just what chip.
