    Honestly, I really got no love for you guys, your boss is a ass****.

     

    Not you directly, just your boss.

     

    Altho your 102 led cameras are great

     

    Ouch!

     

    Anyway, when it comes to infrared, i only ever trust it to extreme CCTV, they rock

    still, can you point me in the direction of another lower end all in on DVR, doesnt have to be embedded DVR, just not a PC system. I want to just stick it in the home and get out of there. Doesnt even need to have ethernet. Need good US support though and has to be reliable, as we spend alot on customs import tax and shipping.

     

    thanks

    the regular 4 channel DVR i sell (kalatel) costs alot more than that, thats why I said $565 is cheap. Im more for american made, than for asian, due to our proximity to the US and not Asia, plus the US made are generally better products.

     

    But i was looking at this as a low end product for home users. Im actually now going to demo a Crow 4 channel USB DVR, it connects to your PC.

    looks identical to the COP line of cameras, generic garbage that doesnt last. I used them for a few months and so many cameras went bad I ended up having to replace them with other brands and never got my money back, they just sent the same cameras right back to me, which didnt work! Also the picture was not that good to talk of. But if thats all you can afford then go for it. Cant compare it though to a better line of cameras like Ganz, Kalatel, Pelco, Ultrack, Panosonic, etc.

    highest res ive found is Sanyo, but even there's doesnt give a good image during alot of sunlight with the sharp mode on, only in shady areas. I ended up disabling it on the 2 cameras I bought, 1 indoors and 1 outdoors.

     

    The only other higher res I found is Machine Vision which we cant use, and ofcourse megapixel cameras, which cost alot. Then again most recorders wont record in that high of a resolution and the monitors wont see that high anyway.

    okay well I am talking Kilo-BYTES not bits, so when I say I get 128 Kilo-BYTES upstream, that is 8 times faster than your 128 Kilo-BITS.

     

    Cause there are 8 bits in 1 Byte.

     

    see you confused me because you said you got 128KB which is Kilo-BYTES. Usually 128 Kb means Kilo-BITS. Hence the uppercase B = Bytes and the lowercase b = Bits

     

    I dontknow, you lost me! Its whatever the normal terminology is for internet speeds, KB.

     

    My ISP sais: 512kbs

    Only for installing the DVR on not for remote viewing and you can workaround on ME if you really wanted to put the card on an ME machine but who would?

     

    nah, im sticking to ME, its twice as fast as XP Plus my web server runs on ME, dont like XP version IIS. Id go back to 95 if my hardware would support it, as 95 is still the fastest. (sorry, DOS actually!)

     

    No, I wouldnt put it on a ME machine, id use 2000. XP is just a terrible OS, okay for non tech users I guess. 2000 is better though and most business networks use that over XP.

     

    I just cant stand XP's features, it tries to do too much for you itself, plus it takes up more CPU and more memory. I havent seen an XP mabcine yet that can match a windows ME machine's speed. I can accept the rare crash once in a blue moon. windows 98, crashes 3 times as much as windows ME, since i upgraded to ME, never touhed 98 again. I have XP on my 2nd partition here, but i havtn used it in a long time, too sloooow an OS.

     

    When MS releases its next OS (not 20003 server), XP will more than likely get discontinued, with its 30 odd hot fixes it requires, it just isnt worth it. I just like speed is all

     

    MS only came out with Xp because it is easier for regular users and most people dont know how to tweak ME to make it run smooth. They not too soon after releasing XP realised they had another failure of an OS. Sometime soon they will hopefully realse an OS that actually works FAST like 95 did, require less hot fixes, and give less errors, and have the driver support of XP. So far none of their newer OS do this. Ofcourse there is an easy way to tweak XP also, but still doesnt make it as fast as ME is. NT based systems were always slow running the same hardware as win98/ME, but their biggest failure was always windows 98 for upgrading from 95, it just dragged and dragged. I notice though some people dont realize how slow heir computers really are. From windows 98, thats when Defraging bcame a requirment, which in 95 was not needed.

     

    My 600Mhz Compact Laptop running ME runs faster and smoother than a new 2.8 Ghz Intel win XP tweaked machine side by side, right here in the same local.

    Sorry, yes, but searching is not like on a StoreSafe or all in one.

     

    No, Motion dection must be built into the multiplexer, always. The VDR supports it.

     

    Some more basic versionsof muxes dont have motion detection, including the lower end Lite Q Kalatel Muxes. Check the muxes manual to be sure it it supports it.

    the VDR is high quality recording like the others, only it doesn not have audio or remote / network access. Yes its a nice unit for those that dont need those 2 options.

     

    Rory

     

    That might work out fine. They are currently running no audio or remote access at the schools. Like I said, I really didn't read into the VDR much, but I imagine you can record as many cameras as the multiplexor allows, right? As stated before, they are running Pelco multiplexors. I just need to make sure the VDR's are compatible with pelco.

     

    Also, does it have the same call back/search options that the others have?

     

    Thanks,

    Brad

     

    It works with Pelco.

     

    I has less featires thn the others, its just like a VCR, but high digital quality. If you need the search fatures you wouldn need one of the others.

     

    The single channel DSR-2000 or 1000 dont have ny search features either, only the all in one units. You however can use the network to seardch the DSR-2000 or 1000's.

    StoreSafe Triplex

     

    This multichannel recorder adds Triplex capability: Watch live and playback images while it records. Display multiscreen views on two monitors. Search for recordings with motion in a target area.

     

    An embedded operating system ensures your recorder’s working when you need it. DVMRe digital recorders use a proprietary, embedded operating system. The result? Your digital recorder won’t be prone to system crashes like PC-based recorders: It will deliver continuous, reliable performance. And the stored video that’s so important to protecting your facility is safer from worms and viruses.

     

    Viewing software lets you access your recordings while at home or on the road. With the WaveReader software, you can connect to any DVRMe digital recorder in your network to view live or recorded images. Or connect using a modem. WaveReader opens your recorders to users who need access to them, and it enables you to check in on the business while you’re at home or on the road.

     

    WaveReader viewing software

     

    WaveReader software gives you remote access to live or recorded images through a network or telephone connection. WaveReader ships with all DVMRe models and other Kalatel DVRs. WaveReader extends the advantages of digital recording to authorized users anywhere on your network—or anywhere in the world.

     

    Using WaveReader, you can view live video from any camera in your network or search for recorded images by camera, time and date, alarm, event or receipt text. You can choose from a variety of screen display modes, from full-screen to a 64-way multiscreen view. Once you have the images you want, WaveReader lets you enhance them by zooming in on selected areas or adjusting contrast, hue, sharpness and more. Then you can save images or even e-mail them to law enforcement officials or others. You can also control pan/tilt/zoom cameras.
