    Hi. The problem with remote clients is there nothing like the on screen display.

     

    If you can get a cat5 from loft to a tv in bedroom then you can transmit your HDMI to that for £10

    For internet connection I would use netgear Ethernet over power for £24

    But how would I operate the dvr? Now I have my dvr next to my PC at mt desk and I operate the dvr with a mouse plugged into the front of the dvr.

    program your DVR using remote client software..
    Could you point me in the right direction please, what software do I need on my PC?

     

    Am I right in thinking if I have a long hdmi cable going from my monitor and a long ethernet cable from my router, both to the DVR in the attic, then, with the right software I will be able to operate the DVR from my PC?

    Well that's the preferred option off the cards.

     

    What about a single screen that comes on when the camera detects movement? I have a camera pointing at the front of my driveway and a camera pointing towards the driveway at the rear of my property. Could I set it up so as when the camera at the front detects movement that camera is shown on screen, but as the car/person moves down my drive the camera at the back will show on screen as the second camera picks up movement?

    I'm just setting up my first system at my home and I think I would prefer to place the DVR in the attic near where the cables come through my gable end. I do have a professionally fitted plug socket up there too.

     

    I live in Lancashire so the weather isn't too extreme and my attic isn't very well lagged so probably warm enough in winter but would my DVR be all right in the summer?
