    what are box cameras used for?

    i7-8700 quicksync or cheap xeons dual socket from aliexpress?

    i see, so BI will use the substream for multicam view, then switch to mainstream when i select view one cam correct? does BI use multicores or single core performance is best? my cams are mostly 4mp down-ressed to 2mp 15fps with 4MB bitrate. currently 35 cams in the system, going up to 50 soon
