I don't have yet any preferences. Cheap, easy to set up, secure. What do you use and can recommend?

i had frigate running locally and could integrate them. That said i grabbed the stream from the local network. I guess you would need some sort of local pi to forward the streams. But that is well above my pay grade ^^ sorry

Yeah, I've already heard about such a solution, where I'd need a Pi that acts as the streaming client, which then should work with any camera.
