Subject says it all basically :) I have an F5-221 TNAS which I've maxed the RAM on.

Not finding any software or instruction on deploying a rudimentary webcam surveillance setup for our front porch.

Anyone have experience rolling something like this out? Even just dumping the video stream to a shared folder could be enough.

The webcan for surveillance feature has been in development, it may be ready in TOS4.2.

Strange that it’s an advertised feature for this NAS though not deployed yet. I used an old Raspberry Pi instead and got this going on my lunch break yesterday. :/
