Sudo apt- get update & sudo apt- get upgrade - y & sudo reboot Because we’re processing video streams, it makes sense to give more memory to the GPU. Finally, changing Memory Split to 256 gives more memory to the GPU (Graphical Processor Unit). The “Expand File System” option just resizes the filesystem on the next boot to use the whole SD card. Since this Pi will be used for monitoring video feeds over RTSP it makes sense to wait for the network to be up before launching the feeds. The “Wait for Network at Boot” option will have the Raspberry Pi wait for a network connection before completing the boot process. Advanced Options -> Memory Split -> 256.Localisation Options -> Change Timezone -> (Choose your timezone).

Pair it with the SanDisk Extreme Pro for an awesome microSD card that is fast and reliable.įirst off, go ahead and download the latest version of Rasbpian. If you don’t have a Raspberry Pi already I recommend this kit from CanaKit which comes with an excellent power supply. Using the software from today’s article you can create grids or do fullscreen streams including rotating through several different cameras. I’ve now turned one of my HDMI ports on my living room TV to an awesome video surveillance monitor that anyone can use, just using a Raspberry Pi. While I can always view the camera through the UniFi Video app or through my NVR, I wanted an easy way to open up the feed if my phone was dead or in another room.

I recently bought a Ubiquiti camera and set it up to monitor my house. You can hook up the Raspberry Pi to your TV or any other monitor you have lying around to create your very own video surveillance system. Have video cameras around your home and property for home defense? Have an easy way to display them? In today’s article, I’m going to walk through turning a Raspberry Pi into a video surveillance monitoring system.
