jeffpa 0 Posted September 4, 2006 I guess when you get one of the the first machines around you gotta expect bugs. While its a nice machine, it does have some serious bugs. The worst bug, is that you can cant rewind/ff through all events on only one camera. Only if those events for that camera are in the event list, in order. Any other camera events in between those, the unit appears to hang, screen goes blank when you rewind to the beginning, or ff to the end. Even the everfocus allowed that. While in event list, if you have an event occur while you are viewing or in the event list, occassionaly the unit hangs, or even bumps you back to live camera. And the UI has some serious usability issues, as if you go into the search screen, to get back to camera live takes about 7 keystrokes to get back to live camera. And dont even mention the save/no save option, and the double check dialog that pops up on save. (You have to get to exit, scroll to save or no save, if you select save, another dialog pops up to make sure (yes/no)). Yucky. On the otherhand, picture quality is excellent, video is smooth, and it is cool that I can put a KVM switch between my PC and the DVR,and switch the mouse/keyboard/LCD monitor, between them. (Although I havent yet, its doable). If I'm lucky, there will be a firmware update to fix these bugs... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
