G22 0 Posted April 14, 2005 This is what a Pan rep told me today at their yearly sale... that their DVR's now run embedded Linux? Is this correct? If it would not surprise me if it were not, as I can honestly say I knew more about DVR's and CCTV than this particual 'rep', and I have only been into it briefly for a few months now. Perhaps he was an installer, don't know. He could not even answer simple questions like like what size HD was installed, frame rate, etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MetzLyov 0 Posted April 14, 2005 Panasonic have tried and failed using Linux based solutions before, however the discussion still exists. I very much dout that they will, as I met with the actual designers of their DVRs before (from Japan) and they prefer working with their own developed language and make their DVRs embeded... I think what that "rep" was trying to relay that he heard that Panasonic was/is/may be working on Linux based and this information have been around in the last 5 years.... I have not seen it nor asked if Panasonic's latest units are based on Linux... If you want, I can check and let you know. Levon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
