I have a CCTV camera and a DVR (?? might be wrong term) that has a horrible app that logs into it, to record the footage.
The camera appears to be Cat5'd into the DVR. I don't know if it's PoE or not. The model of the DVR is a Hikvision, I don't really know more than this.
I'm wondering if there's some 'simple' tests I can do to 1. get that camera steam some how.
I'm happy enough to plug the camera directly into a network, or something like a raspi, but I've no idea if this is a sane idea or not.
