Hi Eben,

 

I would suggest trying another "larger brand" of IP camera, for exmaple Axis or Vivotek, please also remember its important to tie yourself in with a supplier that can offer you local support, although AVTECH are quite large on analog i feel they are not quite there when it comes to IP.

 

You can feel free to contact me i am locally based and look after NUUO for Africa as one of my regions.

 

Hope this helps

Hello Graham

Thanks for the reply. We emailed each other more than once a couple of weeks ago

In the end, I took the hit on the AVTECH and wrote it off as a bad business decision.

Regards

Eben

You may give a shot at Blueiris.

Thank you Shankar!

This could be just the ticket.

something like this that supports avtech. http://www.avermedia.com/AVerDiGi/Product/Detail.aspx?Id=196

 

That may well do the trick.

 

Where would I get one?

were are you based.

Cape Town, South Africa.

but your dvr is AVTECH

 

Is that a bad thing?

 

I don't have a DVR. All I have is the camera.

 

do you not have the software that came with the camera. ???

Yes I do, but... The first thing that I've noticed is that the supplied software is far from brilliant, so it's pretty obvious I need something better.

I'd like to build myself a "server" that can communicate with the camera and can record any incidents / motion triggers.

I'd then like to have some sort of remote software that I can run on my pc some distance away to see the live feed and play back the recordings.

I've looked at NUUO and Koukaam, but neither supports AVTECH. I've also looked at a rather smart program from China that's just called NVR_Client, but it also doesn't support AVTECH. H264 Webcam ver 3.8 supports the camera, but the software is still very basic and doesn't meet with my requirements.

Now it's the turn of CM3000.

but your dvr is AVTECH

Is that a bad thing?

I don't have a DVR. All I have is the camera.

I downloaded the CM3000 program and it's patch from the Avermedia site.

I then installed the program and ran the patch.

When I started the program, I went to setup and tried to add a camera.

No matter how often I press the "add" button, nothing happens.

I'm very new to this whole business and don't have a clue as to what I'm doing wrong.

Please help.

Thank you.

I'm playing with an AVTECH AVN252 camera.
