    Poor Picture Quality?

    Hi. Your camera has nothing to do with the resolution of your video out (VGA) Just try a standard monitor you don't need 1280 monitor. ......
  11. Hi. don't go by it looks the same ...... HIK have used that dvr case for years. it sounds like you have the Colossus lite (2007) which is just a CIF unit.

    Re- introducing myself

    Hi Jon. good luck with your new business.......... you can tell which people will make a good go of building there own and I think you will do well. looking at your site your heart is in the CCTV and not the money ......... having that good attitude the money comes later. good luck Jon.
  14. Fill your Boots if you want to install without code regs. doing a 80m extention lead does not come under code. this is the info people are trying to get from you ......... will power and video be in same conduit or conduit for each
  15. your problem is how many cables ...... you could use 12v 5 amp at that distance (for each camera) which means a cable for each. if your going 220v option then it also depends where you are located ....... most will need 220v in conduit
  16. or for 80m use 24v cameras cat5 to each camera with 1 pair for video rest split for power

    PAL to NTSC

    if you take a look at the ftp site it tells you how. what you have to remember is firmware is not the OS it is just for adding fix patches for bugs. you can only use PAL firmware for PAL or NTSC for NTSC or it will just hang if you look on serial plate you should see PAL or NTSC and some even have SECOM this is its OS for its region. you can get a region flash from there FTP but it take a few hours and even then that has problems . some dahua do and can run in either no firmware needed its tick box on first startup or in menu

    PAL to NTSC

    No it can't be done on there DVRs. It's the board that has the region not the software
  19. Hi. do you have a reason to update ???

    How much to pay

    hi. buy from a geo distributor. you will get back up and support ......which you wont with ebay or amazon and you will need support
  21. Dahua is a toy compared to avigilon. Dauha is the budget system. (Well if bought from a distributor) it's over priced at other places.
  22. I know what your saying....... everyone should have the right to protect what they own. if it was something to do with there car then they will be knocking on your door to see if your camera seen anything. just sent a PM to you.
  23. what type of camera are you using ??? sounds like your in a block of flats HA. so all areas outside will be classed as public space and you do need to follow steps to put a camera into public areas. these steps can only be taken by building owner. UK laws are also going to change this year which will make it harder for you to use in a public place. one way to get out of your problem is to use a camera inside your car.
  24. Hi. where are you located. if your in te UK then yes you could have a problem. people who object to CCTV always bring up recording kids. as you are not recording then you cant say you are or not. might be a good idea if you got a cheap recorder just so you can show HA what your camera is covering. but again this all depends if your in UK or not.
  25. It's because 90% of there 3rd party list don't work and the other problem is they will work but only at D1. And it's the same if you want to use a dahua on another NVR ... Dahua don't work with aver or everfocus. And dahua also know about there own problem ...... There new 3 and 5mp Don't work on there early NVRs
