Anyone have camera suggestions? I've got 2 spare raspi 5s that would probably be a good base.
Instead I would suggest either a direct CSI connection or an external GigE camera.
I have also tried many other IP camera brands over the years, but it seems none of them have figured out how to output fully compliant RTP/RTMP/etc. streams so I end up always having strange and random problems receiving fluid streams from them into a central server.
Coupled with the fact that many brands are just using the same recycled white-label Chinese firmware, I'm not surprised.
Would love better recommendations though if any exist.
Another issue is semi-compliant ONVIF implementations for PTZ cameras and/or not having relative movement implemented. Or you know, just lacking RTSP and ONVIF entirely.

SDKs for many of the SoCs not being available is really annoying as well. Some of the Ingenic, Sigmastar, Goke etc. are available, but I think many were just leaks from customers rather than intentional releases.
Not too sure if you are looking for non Chinese manufactured though, down here anything else is just way too expensive and lower quality anyway!
