Which private (no cloud requirement) wireless home security cameras save footage locally without monthly subscription? (lemmy.ml)

I tried wyze and find it silly how video clips are limited to 5 seconds unless you give them money every month. I want something where the footage is saved on a local sdcard/hdd without any cloud reliance.

Even better if I don't have to be locked into using the manufacturer's app, but I'm flexible on that.

For wyze to work with frigate you will need the wyze docker bridge running. It's a PITA to have them stable. Better option is to install Thingino on the wyze cams and then add them to Frigate with the rtsp feed

    I don't know what any of that means right now but I appreciate it and am sure it will make sense once I research this a bit.

    wyze seems to have deleted the RTSP firmware from their site and said they have no plan to bring it back. I'll be looking for other cameras.

    Install Thingino on them. it's really easy just place the file on the SD card and then hold the button on power up. Each cam is slightly different but super easy. Once Thingino is installed connect the cams and grab the rtsp link on the main page ofnthe web interface.
