Cam software/hardware

[GeorgeK]

Since search is disabled (and a Google search brought mixed results), can someone recommend good cam software that can handle multiple cameras in a location, and that would also manage the uploading and archiving/thumbnails of the resultant images/snapshots?

This would be for a mainstream application, but certainly the expertise of those using similar solutions for the adult business would be appreciated. No more than 6 cameras would be needed (maybe 1 or 2 to start). Needs to be XP-compatible.

We have an initial budget of a few hundred bucks for the hardware and software, although might invest more should the site earn a good income. So, something with expansion capabilities would be ideal.

Thanks in advance.

That looks like an impressive system, although it's overkill for us (we're doing a puppy-cam, lol). For someone building a paysite with live webcams, your turnkey hosting looks interesting.

I'm looking more for a software package as a one-shot purchase (with everything on my own servers), instead of a monthly fee (unless it was hosted for like $10 to $20/month or something like that).
