lets talk mbps recording

Recommended Posts

Is mbps recording specs not listed with alot of manufacturers nvr's? I can't find alot of them...I have a 1.3 mp running at 2000kbps and am pretty happy with it. it streams 22fps from a non local connection to end user with a 3 mbps upload rate.

 

 

what would be a good rule of thumb to look for in nvr specs for mbps throughput for recording for 16+ cameras?

 

whats is a happy medium kbps stream for 1920x1080, setting the camera bit rate(bandwidth non local connection) for decent picture

It's kind of a meaningless spec to quantify on the NVR side, because it will vary with the camera, the framerate, the frame size, the compression type, the compression level, whether or not motion, analytics, or alarm-triggered recording is used, how finely-tuned the motion detection or analytics are, the scene being recorded, the amount of movement being recorded... etc. etc. etc. etc. etc.

It depends on all this.

 

The camera manufacturers have storage calculations you can go through to get a decent idea of how much storage you need for what compression with what cameras at x% motion for x amount of days. Then you can build your NVR around that.
