NVR (network video recorder). Never found anything off the shelf in the same class as Nest which I really want to move away from (alerts, face recognition, fast scrubbing, etc).
Slowly building my own solution, but its low priority with some other projects. Mostly playing with gstreamer to do the capture over RTSP which is working. Working on file rotation next and then fast scrubbing (encoder + browser widget). After that either Home Assistant integration or the alerts/detection)
Tried Agent DVR. It works, and I’ll probably borrow the libraries they suggest for alert monitoring, but the scrubbing performance wasn’t that great.
In my research modern fast scrubbing uses spritesheets. AgentDVR just felt like overkill for capturing raw video and rotating video files if I’m going yo craft my own viewer. I can do that with gstreamer easy enough.

Have you tried frigate? Or iSpy agent dvr?

If you have a Synology their Surveillance Station product is amazing and will work with basically any IP camera brand.
