    Night cameras???

    hi. i would look for a D1 dvr. there is no mention of your link being D1 ---30fps i would say its a CIF unit also for that money why does it not have links to iphone or android apps. (what apps does it use)

    Auto tracking in action- video

    another thing about auto-track is its not supposed to be used as a full feature of the camera you will be lucky if you get 3 months out of your camera before it gives up. not only the work the plastic gears are going through but also its always running at max power draw. auto is only good if attached to alarm input either via sensor or from another camera (set as alarm) and it does its job when needed

    Maplin Sentient CCTV PCViewer

    hi. cam you post a picture of your dvr. it could be a avtech - sentinal - q-see or a CNM.
  4. i think the guy who made the PDF file was on something. yes you are right everything points to 24v untill you look at parts list part 5 24v fan or 5A 12v models only. that is the only time in the PDF that tells there are two types. untill you try to find on the manual about 24v or 12v and its in small lettering on the first page. at bottom. http://www.videolarm.com/literature/Videolarm/Instructions/81-IN5329.pdf Before attempting to connect or operate this product, please read these instructions completely. To be used with the 81-IN5481 Instruction Manual. which is 24v then look over to the right and you see this. 81-IN5329 01-13-2012 which is the Right manual for the 12v dome http://lib.store.yahoo.net/lib/123securityproducts/81-IN5329.pdf its there mistake with doing a stupid manual ....24v and 12v both have the same manufacture part number. take a look at your fan (part number 5 for 24v or 5A for 12v system)
  5. hi. this is not always the case. CCTV has been around for years well before D1 it was CIF and licence plates and face were geting picked up then. we still see big names still making CIF only DM-samsung- bosh for licence plate applications. there is lt more to the Resolution its also how good the codex is (how much data in each pixel) you can have a DVR with D1 but if it has a crap codex its crap. Re: Inexpensive - Real Time 4CH D1 Resolution 30FPS DVR the ebay listing. it does not take 5 minutes to find out it is CRAP Google is good at saving money if homework is done. there is a phone number on the listing. GOOGLE it you will find the USA seller ..... then look for the ebay listing in his products ..... ill save you some time ITs NOT listed. this tells you it has problems and he needs to sell off quick (bad import choice) if it was good it would be on his site ............. but it looks like they dont want anything to do with them so onto ebay they go and just add the simple words to his listing ....... All the DVR system, cameras, cables are non-refundable which also means no support
  6. hi. sounds like it needs a new board. with no video or setup move then it sounds dead. did you buy it new ??? you can get the board but test the camera direct before you spend money if it was secondhand
  7. or attach to a PT head. thats the good thing also 1.3 in B/W good low light but it does do 10fps at 3mp

    LT Security Cameras VS. CNB Cameras

    CNB can deal with most lighting conditions even direct into a screen. i would look at cameras without IR they always become a problem. just taken from a remote DVR CNB. which app does the LT system use ???

    LT Security Cameras VS. CNB Cameras

    Hi. viewing over wan or mobile network will have nothing to do with camera choice. (camera to dvr yes) but a system with a media stream is always better than a java stream which is a refresh image. how many cameras ???
  12. hi. axis is full PTZ so cant compair them both even with the mobotix PT unit the axis will proform alot better. a good camera for web casting and remote monitoring applications is the sony SNC-RZ25N and is cheaper than the others. live links to play with for both the M12 (not on PT head) and the sony (full ptz) sent via PM. as you will see the sony is outstanding over the network live

    PC DVR 48 Channels, what video capture card buy?

    hi. pc or windows based standalone units can be made to talk with each other 1 -2 - lots of units can all be called together with 1 software also with 42 cameras you need a good display at least two 42inch for that many cameras

    PC DVR 48 Channels, what video capture card buy?

    hi a 42 cam system is going to take some building and a high price. i would look at 2 x 32 or 16 & 32 system linked together it will be much more reliable

    First system

    hi. you do need baluns at both ends. no point using just 1.
  16. then like soundy says something is odd. so i would start to look at the simple things. the lead you have is it right i.e video to centre pin ground to outer ...... is ground connected. you may just have a faulty lead. and also have you set colour settings on tv. do you have another tv or lead to test on. or just a portable DVD player with video in just to test.
  17. hi you should have no problem connecting to C yellow video in.
  18. or you could go component to VGA on your dvr with 1 on these.
  19. hi. can you post a pic of the connections on your tv ........... you need to have a yellow video in rca. some also need 3 RCAs (red green blue) for video which will not work for you.

    QVIS INT-SN34-V2W Camara

    hi. very good cameras (they are plastic housing) good for shop areas but i would look at vandal housings around your cash - till - entry exit and outdoor areas. good priced cameras with the samsung winner 5 chip set
  21. hi what might be seen as masking might just be a region problem. your software with reloading might have gone back to factory settings so you may have to tell your card which region you are. PAL or NTSC

    Qvis Apollo RT

    hi try setting your stream settings lower. try cif. if you have all set high then you will have problems with internet connection.

    Record IP Cameras from a differnt network

    Wait until you hear the price... two cameras - 1 microphone - 1 speaker - LED lights - PIR sensor built in recording all in one is not going too look as ugly as if you mounted everything seperate. and as far as price 8 x foscams = mobotix
  24. yes it will do. i would also surgest not using ir for your setup (your camera is too high) if you need to identify person's face. a good camera with a cheap dvr is not a good match. you need to be looking at a 50mm lens low light camera. or record direct to your pc and use 3mp ip camera.
  25. hi. as well as a camera you are going to need a way to record. what is your budget. ?
