read the changelogs to see if they apply to your use. I'd choose .deb over source myself, but that's my preference. There are a couple issues that plague me that I haven't bothered to pursue yet -- the app borks if it runs out of storage space and has to be restarted, and sometimes I lose one of my three cameras, but a lot of those issues may be a flaky driver and a lack of really good USB busses on the machine. Start with the debs and move up if you need it. A
