Hi Parad

You can connect this to a SmartTV.. even a normal TV... has a HDMI connector and iirc 4K output

Hi MeatballsJones,

Best deal? - hard to say, as "best" will vary based on what you need / want.

I personally like a higher tier NVR models and IVS features... but that will run you more
Others like Blue Iris on a windows PC...

Also I like Costco as a vendor..

So try to determine what is most important for yourself.

I like that they cameras have the 1/1.8" sensors - and as they follow IP standards well, you can always upgrade to a PC running VMS software to get some of the IVS style features. So good for future upgrades if you want down the road.

I think this kit is a good choice.. nothing really perfect, so you'll need to find what you're willing to spend and what features you think you'll like.

Thanks for the feedback but my NVR is located in the garage. Hard-wiring it to the tv in the living room is not a good option. The best option is to pay for the smart system and stream wirelessly.

Hi Parad,

Did you wire your media center location with cat6 ethernet drops yet?

There should be a way to WiFi stream from an NVR to any HDTV in your house.

I would think that you could plug the NVR into a WiFi repeater with an Ethernet jack, yes?
