Logitech Security System

Bought this system wanting a IP based camera system. This system is an IP based system, although it doesnt have a builtin server like Arecount cameras costing tons more, this system works great and has a lot of bang for the buck, thank you Logitech! There is a caviot for macosx and Logitech should put it into the manual somewhere. I too had a problem seeing live video. It is because of UPD port 554 and Quicktime. If you cannot see live video, open Terminal application and type "qtdefaults write TransportSettings UDP 554". Another user pointed this out. Also, this system is fully PoE. You do not need the Power modules or Network receiver module dispite what Logitech helpdesk says. I have my system working using a Trendnet PoE 8-channel gigabyte switch. The MAC ALERT COMMANDER software, my network, PoE switch, and Cameras are all that is needed for an ethernet wired system. Have a minor unresolved storage issue. The software says there is suppose to be a browse button under tools, storage, cameras-- but I dont see one. My Mac system disk is full and with no browse option cannot move backup target to ext disk with current macosx commander software. An option to store video on a NAS or HDD like one that attaches to a Netgear WNDR4500 (nice to be via camera firmware, but system application is fine). Would be nice if Logitech would supply an arm box (plugs into network) that would interface an alarm system contact with the camera system to select a home mode and an away mode automatically. I have lots of video of family consuming precious memory space. I know the system has time presets, but many of us come and go frequently and an interface into the primary alarm box would be sweet. The cell phone app is great and works well. Be nice if it was formatted with time on bottom so one could pick out video clips around the times in question rather than just backing up from most recent. Overall, well done Logitech and thank you for supporting multiple platforms.
