Anyone get their $25 Vivotek camera's? - davemchine - 01-02-2014
I popped for two but have had no luck getting them to work. There appears to only be a windows installer so I tried using Parallel's but even the windows software doesn't see the cameras. From this discussion, http://forums.macresource.com/read.php?1,1647204,1647293#msg-1647293

Ok, some more success. Using SecuritySpy and choosing camera type of PZ6112 I now have video. That's good progress. Not sure how I'm going to get wireless working with the french screens though...

Well, I can't read french, I can't guess how to configure the wifi, so that makes this camera a great wired security camera. Or useless to me but I guess I took the chance for $25. Back into the box it goes for now. Maybe I could ebay it. Not sure I'd feel right about that with the french problem.
