your best option is where you buy the dvr from you state what size H/drive you want. and it will be cheaper than what you could buy it for anyway.

most uk suppliers sell the avtech with a 500gb H/D fitted. so i would see how you get on with how many days you get then if needed upgrade the H/D.

for around a home with 1 tb about 15 days and it will keep deleting the last day for a new day cycle. the avtech is a budget dvr but it will do the job. other unbranded names would have given you problems

it depends on how you set it up. and the number of cameras. you can set your dvr to record over when full. but i would not use schedule recording. it will always be off when you need it most

you are right it is frustrating....... you are so tied up in setting your ddns account. you need to get remote working first then add it to a ddns account. when you set everything up you need to get a friend to test it then (not the next day as your ip will have changed) can you not test with your mobile ...... which phone do you have ?

in the uk and with your budget i would look at the AVTECH KPD 674 H.264. i would not look at anything less. you will only have a headach. stay with brand names.

Hi halam. how many cameras are you using ??? the only problem is your budget cant even buy trade at that price.

Hi jeromephone. i have 4 sanyo 3500 on one of these. customer loves the quality. no licence for any ip camera. http://www.avermedia.com/AVerDiGi/Product/Detail.aspx?id=203

like before dont use a AV TYPE h/drive ......... you are best just using a standard drive for your dvr ........ just no point at all you using AV type.

best thing to do is call someone you know and give them your external ip to try or try from your mobile phone

yes thats right. and i would forget using jpeg2000ddns. you need to get remote viewing working first. if you dont then we cant help your just giving yourself a problem you dont need

if you cant see anything with you external ip i would forget jpegddns till you have sorted it just fix 1 problem at a time. and remember you will not be able to view your dvr on the external ip from your own network

first of all dont use a ddns to view. do that later when you have set it up. just try local first entre your local ip for your dvr. into your browser as ......http://192.168.1.4 ..... and see if it connects. who is you isp ???

Just off the top of my head (since I've been researching/discussing these systems recently): NUUO 7000-series cards, the Gen IV (Intellicam) "Enterprise-class" DVR, the AVerDiGi SA9000ePRO, some of the GeoVision cards. I'm sure others can name more. just a little lesson for you ............. most manufactures with list the best part of there spec sheet i.e D1 30fps it mean at these settings 30fps will be at its lowest settings like 30fps in cif. and any of your customers will love between 8 and 15 fps ..... which is very good. and going back to your other post your budget is $1000 for an 8 way .......... you are at the limit of buying something at a low end spec .

Thanks for the info. But I don't see the advantage of the Avermedia over the NUUO. True, you pay for additional software licensing for the NUUO to add IP cameras, but let's do a comparison: NUUO SCB-7008 (8-ch analog card) + 8-ch IP software license: $1,000 + $1,060 = $2,060 AVerDiGi SA9000ePRO (16-ch mixed analog/IP): $3,439.00 From what I can tell, NUUO's software is feature-rich and is comparable in capability to the Avermedia system. nuuo has nothing like what the avers can do as far as features go. and the price differance is the SCB-7008 is software comp and the avers is hardware comp.

Would that be the AverMedia NV6480E16 Card? According to their specs, it's only capable of recording analog at 160fps at D1 resolution (10fps per channel). That's not good at all. Btw, what's the deal with their website? All the product images are missing. 10 fps not good ............... do you understand fps ???

dont waste money on AV drives. and they will give you problems. W/D tech say they have had many complaints off people using AV drives in dvrs. AV drives are for pvrs and home media systems were the drive it stoping and starting all the time. on a dvr your drive is not stoping and starting. just get yourself a good mame 1TB sata H/drive. ...... some one will tell you that they are no good for 24/7 operation . its all crap i have had H/drives in dvrs for 12 years running 24/7 and still working well.

Hi spyguy. the problem is your price. and you also have the problem of the nature of the install. ok its a private airport but it is still classed as a high risk area. so if you are going to be the installer i would look at getting the best images possable. since you have cameras already fitted i would agree on going hybrid so as you can go ip also. its costs more than your budget but i would look at the avermedia sa 9000 pro. its has some good features that will suit a small airport . i.e will take a photo of everyone going though a secure area / auto tracking ptz controls. (not many places you can use auto trackers in a normal install but a quiet airport it will work well) and unlike the nuuo you will not need ip camera licence for each camera.

these are always good to keep in your tool box .

what happend to the company you bought the card from ??? and name. what you have to remember is you was sold your card by a salesman .... who has never used the card or know anything about cctv. q-see is world wide selling bottom end dvrs and cards under many names. what is it you are trying to do with the card .......... why not just use it as cctv why do you need it to do other things.

can i ask how you have 16 vga and 16 ip on a 16 system

Hi arcadiacctv. if people have cameras that have bad images or bad ir..... they are hard to sell without having any comeback................ so they sell on ebay. if you have a good dvr (which you have ) and the others are working fine then just put it down to cheap cameras and learn from it.

Hi tweak. i have no problem sending you one. why the new mob is not available in the US i dont know. http://www.avermedia.com/AVerDiGi/Product/Detail.aspx?id=209 http://www.avermedia.com/AVerDiGi/Product/Detail.aspx?id=178 the wifi mob is best no more going into the unit to get footage it will auto log on to your home network when you get home.

everything sent by email .... hope it helps.

then the dvr is called a leviathan. it has been around for a few years now if it has delta-wave in the corner it is at least 8 years old. you can get all updates still and it is a very good unit. just pm me and i will send you everything you need .
