Hi, Just wondering what your opinions were on the best monitoring software. I don't really care for the software that came with my qsee dvr. I seen one out there that had lots of cool options called "vitamin D". Think the paid version is a little pricey at 199 though. I like that it has its own motion detection built in to recognize people versus cars or objects, etc.

Hi, I have a q-see qs408 dvr. It requires port 80,100,9000 open. I set it up in my router to do so and I can remote log in only sometimes. WHen I use canyouseeme.org to check ports open, sometimes it shows them open, and sometimes closed. Can someone please help why it keeps doing this. Been working on this for 2 days now and starting to get frustrated. Thanks Jason

Hi, Just noticed my camera settings have a motion detection setting built in. Just wondering what this use would be since the dvr does the actualy motion detection. Thanks Jason

Hi, Just wondering if it was possible to use a wireless network card for qsee DVR instead of running a line. I have everything all planned out for running lines to cameras, but having a problem finding a good route to DVR for the cat5 line. If not, I guess I could just buy a wireless extender with 4 port hubs and put it by my DVR. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks Jason

Hi Recently been having car break ins at my house quite often. Last time, they pulled up in a car out front of my house at 2:30am. I have purshased a qsee dvr with 700 tvl cameras from empire security cameras on there way for the house perimeter, but was wondering if there was a good camera that I could mount inside my mailbox at street that would catch license plates. I figured a small camera, but good enough to catch detail in low light at night time. I was going to drill a small hole inside mailbox or build a small box on back post of mailbox for camera. Just wondering what would be good for this application. Thanks Jason

My driveway is only about 35 ft long and mailbox is at end of driveway. I forgot to mention I live on a dead end street, so any cars coming in will have to leave out the same entrance. So one camera should be fine. I do have a street light by mailbox, so it isnt that dark. Just wanted a camera thats a little more compact than a bullet camera. Didnt know if I mounted a dome camera on side of box if that would work. Plus I have neighbors down the street that have had trouble.Figured if I could get footage of all license plates coming and going it would help my hole street.
