    Hello, I have got a CCTV camera which used RG59 cable above my front door. I have attempted to simply splice the cable to split the feed into 2 cables, so one can go to my DVR to capture the footage, but I want one to go straight into a TV above the door to provide a live feed, then we can see who is there without going to the other side of the house where the DVR is. 

    However I can't seem to get a clear image on the TV above the door, would I need some kind of signal booster or do you think the connection simply isn't good enough? Of course I have attached a normal coax connector to the RG59 instead of the correct connector so that it will go into the back of the TV.

    I hope this makes sense!

    Video on cable is NTSC or PAL , both interlaced format and smaller resolution.  Monitors require Progressive (Deinterlaced) video for display. The monitor (TV) should have an AVIN (CVBS) port.  Expensive TVs have a better Deinterlacer for a better visual quality.


  2. Two points:

    Point one: You are destined to receive very much blurred video when transmitting UHD (8MP, 4K) Video Data on a coaxial cable by Analog Modulation Scheme.

    Point two: UHD camera is made of CMOS type and electronic rolling sensor. The pixel sensor does not have time to gather enough lights in 33m Sec frame time, in a low lighted condition. Lots of electronic noises creeping into the Pixel Value.

    You are always cheated by fiddlers if you get to believe that  Large sized videos is to be delivered  with always better quality. I do not recommend 3MP and above camera systems on a coaxial  cable.  2MP Full HD -30 FPS is OK with current technology, on a coaxial cable.

    5 MP might be too many pixels for analog modulation method for coaxial cable.

    See how people get stuck on bad information..........so what about 8mp 4k over coax 

    8MP camera could be IP camera with properly impedance matched, or very much blurred, nothing worth.

    And 5 MP needs more storage space

    Just an excuse ..... might loose a day 

    Hmmmm, I would say Too much blurred video does not require much of storage space. But not worth of any bits.

    The sensors are supposed to spit out pixel values in a certain amount of time. The more pixels, the shorter time interval to transfer the charged electronic value (after gain amplified), for every frame. Thus, the more prone to electronic noises, leading to a poor video.

    The old way moving sensors for b/w 

    new cameras don’t .... it’s moved on we’re talking colour 24/7

     

    but if the op wants to buy low quality and old tech  and pay over 

    It does not make a sentence, 

    You may check out why Chinese Smart phones claim more pixels, say, 20MP,  while iPhone is limited to less than 12 MP(?????) 


  4. Please allow me to add 2 cents.

    We can say that 5 MP has better video quality when the enough light is provided, if all other condtions remain the same. As to low light performance,  please be noted that most mega pixel sensors are of CMOS type and Electronic Rolling sensor.

    The sensors are supposed to spit out pixel values in a certain amount of time. The more pixels, the shorter time interval to transfer the charged electronic value (after gain amplified), for every frame. Thus, the more prone to electronic noises, leading to a poor video.  If all conditions remain the same, 2MP is better than 5 MP, in terms of low lighted performance. And 5 MP needs more storage space.  It could be a waste for the much blurred video. To add one more comment, 5 MP might be too many pixels for analog modulation method for coaxial cable.

    Since normal HD monitor only has a resolution of up to 1080P. (1920 X    1080)
    Does it make sense installing a 5 MP HD Analog surveillance system if you’re not using a 
    4K monitor with it?
    As I understand it the 5MP has a resolution of 5MP 2560x1920.
     

    You are partly right.. That's how marketing drives to get a bit higher price.


  6. HD-CVI was initiated by Dahua.

    HD-TVI was initiated by Hikvision and Techpoint.

    HD-AHD was initiated by Nextchip.

    With my two cents in,  nothing much to claim as a standard or patentship,

    as they are all similiar to NTSC scheme, a sort of adhoc.

    Sqeezing more number of pixels and moving color sub-carrier frequency to a higher freqency zone, etc.

    That's why the signal gets deterioated as distance gets longer, as  we know the signal of higher frequency can not go longer.

    Up to 200 meters, 1080P x 30fps is tested OK in our lab on a good commercial cable.

    And therefore no common governing organization for these adhocs.

    You have to contact them each, for more information.

    Basicaly, as long as  they serve your needs, you can go for them.

    Simply because they are cheap enough.

    But can’t use existing ip cameras 

     

    card is too old .... only 2mp max analog 

    no point buying out of date

    As the cards need to run on  a PC, addtional IP cameras can be supported by the PC software. That's why named as Hybrid DVR. Interrupting events and software updates can me easiliy made with the PC. Please note that analog HD of 3MP or 4MP can be claimed to be delivered on a coaxial cable. but losing lots of details, and not much distance. The coaxial cables were for much lower frequency of analog cameras. So analog HD of 2 MP are hitting Max Frequency of details for those cables.

    Cabling has advanced a lot over the last few months. IP over cat cable is limited to distance (which changes soon)

    but there are IP baluns now for replacing cat cable and using standard RG59 which gives IP Poe a distance of 1.600 feet.

    we were given samples back in November and was told distance is twice that.

    we ran 500m (1.600 feet) with a 4mp camera and worked with no problems.

    direct from NVR Poe output. No need for switches or boosters. 

    So a very cost effective way to run IP systems over 4 times cat5 distance also upgrading old coax systems it Makes it easy and only balun costs on existing coax

    Hi Tom,

    You mean that we better keep coax cables as they are. No hustle to remove them.


  9. Clocks are all different among your DVR, Cameras, your PC, and your mobile phone, either running faster or slower than each other.

    The more accurate time can be shown on your phone whose time can be reset regularily, through network connection to the world standard time.

    If your DVR does not support RTC (real time clock), probably not, you better reset the clock to your smart phone's, once in a while.
