I think youre being quite harsh i think the black lady is quite fit lol

Hi Rory wow i'm slow you got 2 replys up while i was still typing on one vid you can hear it go over but theres no distressing crack or smash sound, your right he was not waiting around long,i am no body language expert but you can almost see how calm he was and what hes thinking("rich people Huh heres ya monitor") as for fedex i cant help but feel sorry for them as one person like that could cause a lot of hassle for them i reckon (stating the obvious there maybe), Regards Murray

Cheers Rory my apologies i didn't realise it was coming up like that should be sorted now, Regards Murray

Cheers Tom, i think i have sorted it now it should go to the youtube vid apologies for the the dodgy links, thanks again Tom much appreciated Regards Murray

Hi Tom, Thanks for downloading a decent link of it as you might of guessed i made a mess of it , as for the chap not getting fired shockin, just makes you wonder what they are like at the other end(depot) cheers Tom Regards Murray

Your startin to get on my tits lj before you pull ya big gun, have spoke to soundy and tom cctv before about a problem i had with ir on a cam, now for what i was trying to do was show a video(type in on youtube "fedex delivery guy chucks parcel over gate) but that has gone tits up so mods feel free to delete,

I'm no spammer, i was trying to show cctv footage of a delivery guy chucking a samsung monitor over a fence, or any other brand.

Looks like this geezer is more of a sony or panasonic fan http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=DhmjJCBQ-cA

Hi Tom, Thanks for the PM mate much appreciated, took back the cam and psu today now i can put my money into a unit that will do whats its supposed to do, thanks again for your help Tom, Regards Murray

Hello again, I bought the designated power supply and shorter cable still the problem persists, as far as i know(which isnt alot) different manufactured cable on a cam would not make any difference, apart from the grainy pic(due to led problem i presume) at night i am happy with the cam,(ok its not great quality but for my budget its ok) so can i take it that it is faulty or have i missed something obvious, Regards Murray

Thanks for the quick response Soundy, much appreciated, now for the embarrassing bit, the cam i replaced was a swann pro 580 480tvl and replaced with addonics 1/3 sony super had ccd heres the specs Image Sensor 1/3 Sony SUPER HAD CCD Video Quality 540TV Line Effective Pixels PAL: 795(H)X596(V) ; NTSC:811(H)X508(V) Lens 4-9 mm Viewing angle 64 - 30 degrees manually adjustable Video Output 1.0Vp-p. 75ohm (BNC) Shutter Speed PAL: 1/50-1/100.000sec ; NTSC: 1/60-1/100.000sec Minimum Illumination 0 LUX with IR on Signal to Noise Ratio >48dB Day/Night Mode Colour during day.

Hi another newbie here, And of course a newbie question, I swapped the cam that was under my porch for a higher spec one(another budget camera with some extra bells and whistles basically) initially for better night vision, but while i was out tonight setting up the focus i noticed only 5 leds lit up out of 36, the only thing i can think of is the power supply,although i was under the impression that none would light up if it was a psu issue, I have had a good look through the threads and not found any info as yet on this, so if anyone could help i would be very grateful, apologies if this is a basic question, as i said i am a newbie to cctv and forums for that matter Thanks in advance Regards Murray
