Is there an open source solution that lets you record from your phone to an offsite location? Preferably something self hosted, but not crucial I guess.
Just thinking about scenarios where people in the US are stopped by cops and need to record their interactions, but want to make sure that the local info isn’t destroyed. I’ve tried the Mobile Justice app for my state but it’s not very reliable and I have no insight into the data after it’s left my device.
You could use something like DroidCam to make your phone available as a web cam on your pc, then capture it with OBS or similar. Use a vpn to keep the devices on the same network.
You’d either have to leave the pc recording all the time or use remote desktop to start the recording.
Another option is to look at software to turn your pc into an NVR and find an app that essentially lets you use your phone like an IP Security Camera. Again, using a VPN to keep them in the same network.
I have the nvr setup with Synology and the vpn is there too, automated to connect when my phone leaves the wifi. This might be an option, but I’m on iOS so there’s limitations there.
