I have four of these cameras streaming in one stream to Youtube 24/7. These cameras are great! Green-Backyard will also custom build you a camera if you need. Just email support. I have two custom built cameras presently. I really like that the camera has so many protocol options to stream with. I can adjust every aspect of the camera needed with the Operation Software.
You cant beat the price and quality of these cameras!

The IP Bird Box camera has excellent image quality and all the features I want, including a simple interface to the PC and everything needed to record still images and video. The product description needs to be updated to show that the IP camera now has an SD card slot and supports scheduled and motion-detected video recording to the SD card (in addition to direct manual and scheduled recording on the PC); these are valuable features.
I subtract one star for weak documentation on the software: the CMS5 tool on the PC and the iCSee app on iPhone/Android. I had to experiment awhile and go to customer support to figure out how to record video. I made a YouTube video to explain what I learned — Capturing Video from the Green-Backyard Bird Box Camera: https://youtu.be/P5oexu_JgVc
Customer support was responsive and prompt.
I also made another video, Natural-Light Window for Better Bird Nesting Box Webcam Videos: https://youtu.be/IA9L-UD-WEw

Works perfectly, night vision is good, because my home wifi is not strong enough, so I bought the PoE wired version. Follow by the start quick guide, easy to install by connecting all the parts in the package.
