This thread talks about securing / hiding the recorder: http://www.cctvforum.com/viewtopic.php?t=3796

Hi Guys Thanks for the great forum, very informative. My house was burgled a few months ago and all my electronic equipment was stolen including my PC. This got me interested in CCTV and I have since hooked up a 4 channel PC based DVR with 3 cameras attached so far (can't stop after the first one). The thing about a CCTV system that is not constantly monitored is that if your DVR gets stolen then the whole system is useless. To secure mine I welded a metal frame for the PC and bolted it to the wall and floor. What do you professionals do to secure your DVRs?

Can anyone recommend a comprehensive CCTV book that covers everything from cameras to installations? I see that there are quite a few books available and it is quite difficult to decide. Thanks

Rapid, I see there is a new edition of Cctv Surveillance: Video Practices and Technology due this month http://www.kalahari.net/bk/product.asp?toolbar=none&sku=28381675&format=detail Sorry for the South African link, I couldn't find it on Amazon

I'll check it out, thanks.
