mlohman 0 Posted April 2, 2011 Since audio recording is restricted to limited applications, I have very little industry experience with this. In my research, I have found that in order for the audio and video to sync, it must be recorded 30 ips per camera @ 4CIF. There are 32 cameras with audio on each port. Here is my gear: ACTi XNR-4200 NVR ACTi, model ACM-3001 ip camera Louroe Electronics, Verifact A Microphone (Mics powered separately) I appreciate any advice you may offer!

SDM Group 0 Posted April 2, 2011 How about IP Cameras with built in audio such as Axis Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thewireguys 3 Posted April 2, 2011 I have done audio with Acti and Exacq for police departments. Works with the built in mics but I would try it before you sell it to your customer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mlohman 0 Posted April 5, 2011 Thanks to everyone who replied. I should clarify my application. I considered using the ACTi "Cube" camera with built-in mic. However, the camera will need to be placed back in the corner facing the classroom for the optimum view. I am using cameras with audio inputs so I can ceiling mount the microphone room center. Any "I gotchas" here? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
