Connecting a camera NOT on the compatibility list.

I realize this post is old and stale, but I did get 2 cameras working that were not on the comparability list. It was a fairly painful process of process of elimination. I simply picked a vendor and model and tried to connect until I found a combination that connected. Not rocket science, just brute force. I wish I had a better answer. Perhaps I just got lucky. They have been working now for a long time, then a stroke of luck. With the latest release of the RNS add on, I then at least had the vendor of my cam's show up in the list. There was only one model, I tried it and it connected fine. More good news with this is that I can now use the iPhone app to connect to the cams which did not work when I was using the wrong vendor/model to connect. And motion detection now works as well which did not before using the wrong vendor/model. If you cant get them to work with RNS, you might try Zoneminder, that worked very well for me before the switch to RNS.
