Well I'm not sure whether it's a special application. Here is what I need to do, if any of you kind folks would let me know if there is something on the market that will fit, I'd appreciate it. I come from a video background (broadcast) so some of this cctv terminology is a bit foreign, but I'm working on my comprehension
I'm looking for a stand-alone dvr.
I need to record 2 cameras, at 30 frames (or 60 fields) per second each, full D1 resolution.
I need to record approx 10 hours of footage per camera
I need to have two separate monitors (ntsc monitors), one for each camera. The playback of it's associated camera should appear at the appropriate monitor (ie, camera 1's monitor shows camera 1's playback/live image, Camera 2's monitor does the same for it)
I need a remote, with a jog/shuttle that will control both channels simultaneously (ie, pressing record starts them both recording, or pressing stop stops both, or using the shuttle plays back both in sync, and on their respective monitors)
I would also like the ability to 'break away' one if need be (operate it separately from the other)
Other features that would be a bonus, but not required, would be:
- the remote would also control the cameras - 2x Panasonic WV-CS954
- built-in ability to archive to a video dvd.
not necessary features:
- network / web features
I can't seem to find this set of features, perhaps its just because I'm new to the cctv world, and I'm reading the spec sheets wrong, but it looks like most of the DVRs out there only play back to one monitor. I'm fine with using two dvrs if that gets me what I have above (controlled from 1 remote, but in sync)
The application is for training - we put the students at industrial control panels, and run simulations - the dvrs would be used to review performance, and make sure students performed things when the instructors visually missed them doing it. So it's not exactly a security application...
Thanks for your thoughts,
