Best Home security software

Trilex · June 29, 2019

what is the best free security software that can run on raspberry pi or Linux ( most likely Ubuntu). I want a software that looks similar to Blue Iris and is FREE. Also and good IP camera apps to have low latency and decent fps and res.

Thanks

I am in total agreement with you and am sorry nobody has replied with any advise. I switched everything to Linux about two months ago and my biggest problem is software for my cameras. I still have a licensed copy of Blue Iris and it is useless to me now. Nothing I have found in Linux holds a candle to it. I hope you haven't wasted hours trying Wine or VM software. I have, It doesn't work with Blue Iris. I don't mind paying for software if it will work. I have a Louwice outdoor cam that worked wonderfully on Blue Iris. I can't find any Linux software that can recognize it. I have Ivedeon running now with a camera they suggested. Great tech support, lousy camera, poor software. It is free for home accounts and I am stuck with that for now. I noticed that this post from you is old, I hope this helps revive it and help us both!
