Rob from the channel The Hook Up on Youtube went into detail on his video surveillance setup and it is so good, I had to switch to it.  My cameras were compatible so it was just a matter of building a system to replace my current NVR and get it all set up and configured.  There are 3 main components:

Blue Iris Webcam Software
Deepstack AI Server for video analysis
GentlePumpkin's AI Software to feed still shots to Deepstack and trigger HD recordings in Blue Iris when appropriate
