Esand 0 Posted May 29, 2011 Hello all, I'm new at the DVR world and in need of help. I need to define a video recorder for a single PAL analogue video source with the following requirements: The recording system shall have a data over-writing feature to automatically over-write data from storage device when it reaches its storage limit. The video recordings shall be transferable from the storage device via Universal Serial Bus (USB). At least 48 hours of recording. The recording system shall be able to record the video images for 48 hours continuously Retrieval of video recordings stored in the recording system storage device and setting changes shall be password protected. The recording system shall feature standard functions (slow motion, freeze, fast forward, jump to mark etc.). The recording system shall generate an alarm to alert the user when there is less than 10 min of recording storage left. The recording format shall be H.264. played back ability. Capability to perform MARK (event) during recording perform still imagery capturing (snapshot). It shall be possible to edit a short identification message on the recording by the operators. The last part i intend to use an external program designed for this purpose unless you can point me to a solution that can cover this. I am considering DVR cards like geovision and magic radar but am unfamiliar with the software provided and its limitations. I will greatly appreciate your help.

Kingwood 0 Posted May 29, 2011 I think most of Standalone DVR and DVR card can suit for your requirement,except: "It shall be possible to edit a short identification message on the recording by the operator". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Esand 0 Posted May 30, 2011 Creating events by users so you can jump straight to that point is a common feature? Then what about recommended brands, models etc. I als need very good video quality at record and display, and very high reliabilty as well. The number of companies producing DVR`S is staggering... thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
