The only real problem you could run into by altering software you bought or are legally using, would be if you profited by the reselling of the software. In the end, it would be a copyright issue that would have to be resolved in court. By changing the graphics of any software program, especially programs that have the graphics separated out as individual files, would be just about impossible and a waste of time for the original software programmer to try to stop, unless large amounts of money was being made off of the reselling. People change the way there software looks all the time. In fact there are lots of programs that change the look of other software. An example would be themes for windows. Microsoft doesn't own the theme, and the theme can completely change the look of windows.

Unless you are a programmer you really wont be able to change the program. If you are computer savvy and the programmer did not integrate all of the graphics into the main program, you can look through all the files for graphic files. A lot of the graphics like buttons and logos can be found most of the time. If the ones you find are what you want to change you can replace them with a different one. Keep in mind the replacement will have to be the exact same format and size or it will most likely not work and the program could crash. If you decide to try and pull and replace these graphics files be prepared to reinstall the program in case it doesn't like it. Lance

Finally got it to go through, 30 modifications in. If the DVR is accessible over the lan, the problem is somewhere between your ISP and your router. I would first check to see if you really have a static IP. You could still setup a DynDNS account to make sure your IP is accessible. Use a open port tool to check and see if the IP and the individual ports are open and accessible. Make sure you turn off all firewall and antivirus software first on the computer and the router. After you get it working turn on the firewall and antivirus, checking to make sure that they are not a problem. Here is a open port tool that works easy. "Well tried to post a Web site , but cant, Ive not posted the required 5 post." So, goto DynDNS, the support tab, then dns tools, then open port tool Hope it helps.

Well I tried post help, but the the forum rules think I am tring tp post a spam, so I dont know what to tell ya sorry

The hardware and software seem really solid. As far a John with DVRUSA, he is dishonest about the product, claiming it is hardware base H.264. "Do a search of eBay for DVR USA in stores" None of the hardware that Neugent makes is H.264. The nice thing about Neugents Linux PCI cards is that there is literally no information on the cards, no part numbers, serial numbers, nothing traceable. Put these cards in a 4u case and no one will be able to find out what they are. You will however have to remove the Hawkeye logos from the software.
