          Just add power is one of the systems along with Just Add software you should be looking into. It's a very flexiable system.

            This is REALLY hard to beat. Flexible, cheap, easy.

              On the Cheaper end you have these

              https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B013316TWU/

              https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0133173IY

              The first one is what I use at home with CAT6. Just add power I've done many system installs of before it's really the best system out there for HDMI. Though HD-SDI or 3G SDI is really the best bet for true IMAG distribution.

                @scottalanmiller I was thinking analog will have 4 pieces of hardware that will never need to be touched. No firmware updates, no software updates, restarts, etc.

                With an IP set up, I would need an IP cam, a video server, network switch with PoE, and a computer for each TV.

                  Why do much stuff? You don't need a video server for that. You don't need a computer for each TV. Get modern TVs with built in web browsers. You don't need PoE unless you already had a power challenge with analogue gear. You need a switch anyway, this is not 1994. I literally don't see a single additional piece of gear. I see the simplest possible solution - using modern technology instead of reinvesting the wheel to do things like it was the early 1990s.

                  Remember, this has to be used into the future, not into the past. Don't set them up for failure and new problems down the road.

                    And do you even need a switch? Just use the AP.

                      So with an IP setup you need...

                      one wireless IP cam....

                      That's it.

                        Can anyone recommend a camera with a mic and a zoom lens? Can I run a separate RG6 cable and then just put a RCA adapter on the end of it for audio?

                        You likely want put a mix off the sound board into the feed, maybe add an audience mic for some room sounds but you will need to add a delay for that.

                          Our church sends a feed to some service tied to Roku and then streams it on the Roku.

                            Yup, lots of really simple, cheap solutions.

                              Am I understanding that the use case of this is to act like a surveillance system for the church? But without the recording aspect?

                              If so wouldn't browser-capable IP camera's be enough for this setup?

                                More like an overflow room, nursery feed etc.

                                  So then just to broadcast the sermons into another room, a live stream of sorts.

                                    That's our point, stick with IP and you get that "for free". Anyone with a phone could be given access.

                                      @scottalanmiller That was my thought, going to analog would be more painful and you'd need to have a server to broadcast it

                                        Yeah, which they don't plan to do, but it's a feature that they'd literally pay to throw away.

                                          So I have a few questions, if this something that is a one and done, or that they'd like to have setup and usable year after year?

                                          Are there ethernet cables available for this setup, or is this a wireless only approach?

                                            Um no you don't. Analog is a bad choice but you don't need a server. Not true at all.
