CCTV

[wannabedamned]

My brother has had his car broken into a few times now, And I'd like to set him up CCTV. But I'd like it to record to his computer not TV.

Is this doable?

Would I need a TV In Card for the PC?

And do any of you know of good CCTV kits that perform in Low light?

Thanks

Yes, He has an internet connection and we have wireless adapters, So could possibly adhock? Not got an access point.

Would that camera be Waterproof?

ebay, look for:
"CCTV DVR" - the control cards come with recording software
"CCTV external infra red" - you get what you pay for regarding picture quality

use direct wired units unless cabling is an issue

the small cameras have a bunch of IR LED's around them,
they come on when it's dark and the picture switches to B&W.
A normal halogon floodlight would do just as well.

beyond a few metres, any face is a bit blurry,
so try and get it as close as possible to the car.


AFAIK, you can't use it in court if you don't have warning signs up.

I've sent an email to the one in your trust if that's ok
