My father wants to be able to watch his security cameras at his business remotely. I know it can be done...static IP, video capture, streaming video, etc...in Windoze but I DO NOT want to deal with MS at all. Does software exist for FreeBSD that would allow me to: 1. Monitor security camera footage online, either in real time or recorded 2. Switch among 4 different cameras or meld the images together in a 4-way split screen. And what kind of machine (at the most basic) does everyone think would be required to handle this sort of activity? Do you think I would be better off using BeOS or another OS? I mention BeOS because I know what it can handle, especially since it is extremely good when it comes to graphics and other usually memory intensive programming. Thanks in advance for any help.
