Do the parents who attend your facility know your username?
I'm looking for an inexpensive 2 camera wireless (preferred) IP camera system.
This is not for security, I'm simply trying to find a way to let the parents of the children that attend our facility to view the activities.
These sport based activities take place in rehearsal type studios while 20 meters away there is a parents lounge with LCD TV and a DVR.
So essentially I would like a couple of cameras of reasonable quality, capable of sending pictures to a receiver located in this parents lounge,
and have the receiver push the picture to the DVR or even directly to the TV via RCA.
We have power at each of the camera locations but Cat 5 cabling whilst not impossible, I imagine could be expensive and somewhat of a routing problem.
Whilst it would be nice to access pictures from the cameras via an android phone or even a laptop it's not a pre requisite.
1080i would be an excellent result from the cameras but I'm sure we could live with 720.
Can anyone offer possible solutions ??
I've noticed many internet suppliers list products with resolutions such as 600TVL or 800TVL how do these equate to what I am used to, for instance 560 / 720 or 1080
As indicated, I'm really unsure as to the hardware required to achieve the above but I have sitting here, surplus to immediate requirements, a Netgear N600 Wireless Dual Band router and a small footprint ACER I3 PC. The existing onsite TV can accept both VGA and DVI inputs

In hindsight I should have posted my Facebook status as: "I've blown the head gasket on my 1997 XR3i" rather than "I've just buggered a 14 year old escort".
The police still haven't seen the funny side, my lap top's been confiscated and the wife has gone off to her mum's.

Quite possibly some of them do, why do you ask?

You will need the consent of every single one of them. On another note, although amusing, your sig does bring into question the motives given what you're now asking lol.

Yes, I have all the relevant permissions, we are already filming but had a camera fail, hence my need.

Hi Mr Butts,
The easiest and possibly the cheapest way is to get P2P WiFi Cameras that don't use port forwarding etc and run through a cloud server.
We have such a beast in our range and basically the only thing you need to do is turn it on, setup the wifi details on the camera's webpage, download the app on your phone and type in the registration number.
Literally, that is all there is. No recording unless you have a SD card in the camera.
It is also good since the cloud server can handle more than just a few connections as would be the limitation of a DVR.
