I have 8 of these cameras, all purchased and set up about 1.5-2 months ago. I have them all recording to sd, and also using my synology nas / surveillance station to record/stream them via RTSP (tcp).

I would love to be able to view these cameras on my desktop PC but lack of Camera Account access makes this difficult if not impossible. Would love to have that added in.
