i, I'm new to posting here but read the forum for some time now. I would like to create a list known manufacturer know copycats and known OEM's to better help people (and me) to understand who does what. I'll start with what I know and edit this post as long as people add more and more info. Here goes AvTech (Taiwan) www.avtech.com - manufacturer Win4Net (Korea) www.win4net.com, www.triumsecurity.net - real manufacturer but buy DVR's from STL www.stl-cctv.com STL (Korea) - manufacturer Rifatron (Korea) www.rifatron.com - manufacturer Dahua (China) www.dahuasecurity.com - manufacturer HikVision (China) www.hikvision.com - manufacturer TVT (China) en.tvt.net.cn - manufacturer Aver (Taiwan) www.aver.com - manufacturer JuFeng (China) www.jufenginfo.com - manufacturer (Dahua) copycat Xenon (China) www.xenon.cn - manufacturer (Dahua) copycat HangBang (China) www.hbgk.net - manufacturer (Dahua) copycat Sanan (China) www.sanan-cctv.com - manufacturer (Dahua) copycat LB-Tech (China) www.an-tone.com.cn - manufacturer (Dahua) copycat Swann (China) www.swann.com - manufacturer (Dahua) copycat Lorex (USA) www.lorextechnology.com - OEM (Not sure who) looks like a (Dahua) copycat Longse (China) www.longse.com - manufacturer (Dahua) copycat Servision (Israel) www.servision.net - manufacturer ProVision (Israel) www.provision-isr.com - OEM of TVT Q-See (USA) www.q-see.com - OEM of TVT HKVSTAR/UNIFORE (China) www.hkvstar.com - ????? Provisual (USA) www.provisualusa.com - OEM ???? QVIS (USA) www.qvissecurity.com - OEM ??? MagicRadar/Tiebet (Taiwan) - Manufacturer I'm sure I know more but they don't come to mind at the moment. If you know any answers to the ???? I left or have anything else to add please leave a comment.

Nope - its just an empty space. Avtech does not offer this option.

AvTech 760 is a VERY old DVR. and one of the bad things about AvTech in general is that they do not offer a proper way to reset the DVR to factry default. The reason - to prevent a security breach on the DVR - makes sense but still. The new AvTech DVR's are much much much much much much better. They lack only in the case of the CMS software and user management IMHO. They do have the best cellphone app that probably does not support your DVR. Anyway if your DVR beeps now and does not load there are 2 options. 1. Your DVR is toast and thats probably the case if you tried to short circuit it. 2. The power supply board is toast - look for a fat capacitor. If this is the case go and buy a new capacitor and replace it or have someone do it for you - it takes 5 min. I hope I could help.

Sorry I don't understand what is this related to the link you posted? Anyway Q-see is actually a TVT OEM. Believe it or not - there are worse. I would go with AvTech.
