Some of those cheaper Chinese cameras their web interface require flash to play the videos. Or ActiveX plugin (ie browser). But as long as it's supports rtsp you can use something like VLC to stream the video. On Sat., Feb. 9, 2019, 11:21 a.m. Scott Sullivan via talk <talk@gtalug.org wrote:

Greetings
I am looking into using a security cam to observe animal behavior in an area.
So I would like to use a camera that is IR capable to 30 m but what I'm not finding is anything that I can run on Linux - - - just M$ is listed.
Has anyone out there played with security cams that might be able to help?
TIA

You've not given us a lot of information to work with, and I see folks are making a lot of educated guesses to try and help you. Could you help us by adding some additional information?
What's your budget?
What is some example software / hardware you've looked at (links please)?
What kind of data do you expect to have at the end?
Video, time lapse photos, other?
Do you want this recording all the time, or just on motion detection?
