Yeah...I messed around with iSpy (works, but not the best quality recordings for whatever reason), Blue Iris (works better than iSpy, but costs more and had a few times where it just...stopped working. Could't start the application up anymore, couldn't find any sort of safe mode to fire it up and export the profile for a reinstall. Just had to uninstall and reinstall.

After the second time I just said to hell with it and use the software built into my Synology NAS. It's slow and not amazing, but it's easy to keep the cameras and NAS on their own vlan and off the internet for security purposes.
