Default OT? Security cameras

Hi All

I am now thinking about installing external security cameras. I would
rather integrate these with my existing setup and instead of having a
proprietary box to manage the cameras and store the video, I would
rather them stream to a standard file on a PC. I originally thought
about IP cameras but outdoor ones seem very expensive (around £200).


My 5M pixel ones cost ~£70.
The 1 Mpixel ones cost ~£30.

Does anyone have experience with connecting coax type ones to a PC?
Could a tuner card read the info?


No, you need a video capture card or usb adapter.
