Follow this link:  http://www.stealthbigbrother.com/download.html

They have a basic trial of software, give it a go.

We use the fully fuctional product.  This notifies the user by, Email & SMS when something has been triggered.

Also when the camera is triggered, it is possible to upload the captured video / pictures to a online web server, so if the PC gets stolen, you still have your evidence !!

does the fully functional allow for viewing remotely on the web live camera's?
and does it allow for video searches's????

thanks
You may view remotely, but I do not know about Video Searches.

Don't forget if you are looking for highly advanced features the software you require will be considerably more than a couple of hundred bucks.

heres what i need from the software i will include a ton of points to who will provide me with a link to software meeting my needs pricing is an issue up to $399.99

at least a 30 day trial is required if i dont try it i dont know if i'll like it.

Linux is an option for software packages
currently im looking into zoneminder

must have remote viewer for up to 8 cameras

must have mpeg recording or avi or some other video recording to save video to a movie file...motion detection is a plus as it saves space.....

Any one know of any software i've been searching google for two days straight !
i currently have Dss1000 by Avermedia but the software only works with argus cards...if you know a way to make it work with my cards then that will help too.

points raised to 300

Take a look at www.homewatcher.com - it's free, comes with a motion-detection algorithm, creates avi files from captures, and uploads to a website.
I use Gotcha from Precient Systems. It doesn't save as mpeg but it does use the mpeg algorythms to compress the data.

I can save around 6 weeks worth of motion in 800MB (I've just had a clean out)
It will FTP or email motion captured images if reequired.

I also use Perl::Magick on an apache 2 server to generate thumbnail images from the last 10 or so images. Works well. It also has a multicam option.

get a trial from www.gotchanow.com
