Hello everyone!
I have a question not about the software directly.
What cables do you use?
I would like to use HDMI, but what length do I get?
I tried with a 20-meter cable and it seems stable.
Give me news, thank you.

I use an HDMI over Cat6 adapter. Works for up to 30 meters. Adapter was $79 US at Frys.com, the Cat6 cable was around $50 US.

I have it connected to an AverMedia AVerTV HD DVR card. I use three of these cards with my three HD cameras and it works perfectly. Very inexpensive. The card was $97 US.

Thank you for your answer. I tried to directly connect two cables, each of 20 meters for a total of 40 but does not work. But I found this adapter on the Internet. What do you think? I believe we need good quality cables, to achieve the result of 60/80 meters.

Give it a try and let us know how it works out. You'll still need expensive HDMI cables though...
