Surveillance Camera Software
Some of the best surveillance camera software come bundled with video capture cards. If you are looking for surveillance camera software that can handle both the digital, or IP camera inputs, as well as analog, or CCTV camera inputs, then you want a so called hybrid network video recorder. We found one of the most versatile hybrid network video recorders, NVR, in Avermedia NV5000 model. It includes surveillance camera software, both the IP camera software and analog security camera software with the following features:
