I bought an AVTECH KPD675 a few months ago, fitted a 1GB HDD, linked up 4 cameras and it has been chugging away ever since - but I'm fed up of watching chickens and pets walking around in front of the barn and can't find any 'real' events. 
So I tried setting up the motion detection. 
It works well, ignores the chickens and sounds the alarm when I walk in front of the camera but I'm *uggered if I can get it to record the sequence to HDD. 
I guess the software engineer wot wrote the application is more devious than me...... 
Anybody any (polite'ish)suggestions/ideas ? 
Thanks.
