Although I need to search around the forums some more (and maybe start a thread more on point), this is one of my bigger concerns. Perhaps overblown, but serious nonetheless in my mind. In our neighborhood (a pretty upscale area just north of Portland, OR), we've recently experienced some really brazen daytime burglaries. The thieves come in and take pretty much every piece of electronics. Phones, tablets, laptops. Xbox, blu ray players. All of the networking gear. Even the crappy old hand-me-down desktop computer in a kids room. And in the latest incident (which happened just down the street from us), once the thieves figured out they were caught on a camera, they dumped a couple of gallons of gasoline in an upstairs room and down the stairs and tried to burn the entire house down. Here's the story.[SNIP] NVR/DVR's are rarely stolen. The beauty of an NVR is that it can be placed ANYWHERE on the network so its easy to hide. You can even hide two of them for redundancy.

Hi Exocontact,Why does everything has to be so complicated!? I too just want my new ONVIF IP cam to send video clip (or even just a few pictures) upon motion detection, to my free google cloud storage. Ideally with an email alert also. I don't want it to rely on an open app or local computer. Why isn't that possible? :-(
What is this cam that will FTP recorded video? I'd like to buy one. Do you know the brand and model number?That is very simple. Just buy any IP camera that supports FTP.
...yada...yada
Now all videos/images will be uploaded to google drive.
Setting aside the fact that cloud recording makes no sense, why in the world would someone upload their video to a random unknown website created 4 months ago and whose ownership info is protected by who is guard. If you want to run an ftp server you can build one for a few dollars...That is very simple. Just buy any IP camera that supports FTP.
Then sign up https://www.cloudbox247.com and you will get free 10GB FTP account.
Now go to your account at cloudbox247 and authorize to your google drive account.
Go to camera settings, put your ftp account. Select upload trigger (Motion detection).
Now all videos/images will be uploaded to google drive.
Yes, and please note you are a spammer trying to promote your UNSAFE insecure crap service. Avoid Cloudbox247.com like the plague, its a huge waste of time and and not only a security risk, but a deliberate scam.Please note: this service is only transferring gate, all files will be stored in google drive. You can delete files in cloudbox247 anytime you need.
And many limit at ftp, it can't view image/video online. You must download files from ftp first. That is not good idea.
Data...You are a spammer...you RUN the "service"...but you forgot to mention it...hmmm..Scam for what. It is free service
I have proof, you spammed this forum and failed to disclose that you run the ftp site yourself. Then you LIE and tell us its safe because everything is stored on google drive, forgetting that you have direct access to EVERY single file uploaded to your ftp site. That alone is enough. To top it off, the website was registered 4 months ago in Vietnam (no its not good). You have no security protocols in place and I would not trust you if you claimed you did. cloudbox247.com is a scam and should NEVER be used. Stop spamming forums. You have now learned the hard way.Hum. You shouldn't say like that if you don't have proof. And Vietnamese is not good?

You dont think? Well I did. The purpose of this forum is to warn people about Vietnamese scammers like you.I don't think a staff member of forum can state something like that. What is the purpose of this forum? Don't want to help people to get best solutions for their problems?
You failed to answer my question in post #26: "What is this cam that will FTP recorded video? I'd like to buy one. Do you know the brand and model number?"All cameras that support FTP can use cloudbox247.com to auto upload files to google drive. Foscam for example
