JoeLansing 0 Posted December 30, 2011 I've got a crappy Swann 4 channel. It's not bad, but I want my new one to support at least the same features it has. I've swapped out the junky 420 TLV cameras that came with it, and am about ready to upgrade the DVR itself. Here is what my current Swann will do: Supports remote viewing. PC viewing is ok. Android would be a bonus. Records in .264 I want at least 7-8 FPS on each camera in D1 at the same time Record separate alarms/alerts for each channel so I can go back and view just the motion alarms on one camera at a time. I'd like email alarms to work and have it send me photos of the motion. - Joe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rory 0 Posted December 30, 2011 Maybe look at Dahua, inexpensive but loaded with features. Rebranded under different names such as QVis, AData, XTS Video, EDGE, IC Realtime, MACE, GEN IV, and others Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Birdman Adam 0 Posted December 30, 2011 Yea Dahua sounds like a good fit for you. (I love mine.) I got a Qvis Zeus 8. See my home thread for some info on it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
groovyman 0 Posted December 30, 2011 Also consider the Aver Nano. The 8 channel model number is EH1008H. They're typically sold without hard drives, but support up to one 2TB drive, so consider the cost of the hard drive when making the purchase decision.

JoeLansing 0 Posted January 1, 2012 Is this $120 Gadspot one http://www.gadspot.com/p-290-gs2105v.aspx a Dahua? The owners manual and remote control for it look a whole lot like my Swann. - Joe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stephenst4470 0 Posted September 22, 2014 I know this is an old thread, but just out of curiosity, does anyone know if the Q_SEE QT5682 is a rebranded Dahua? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Numb-nuts 1 Posted September 22, 2014 If you WANT Dahua. why not buy a Dahua. A rebranded Dahua is NOT a Dahua Its a logic I can't quite understand, I want to buy one brand but I want it to actually be another brand? What LOGIC? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Don Stephens 0 Posted September 22, 2014 I know this is an old thread, but just out of curiosity, does anyone know if the Q_SEE QT5682 is a rebranded Dahua? It's not a Dahua face plate that I'm familiar with. It's still possible that the board is made by Dahua. You'd need to post screen shots of the GUI and find the firmware version.

A rebranded Dahua is NOT a Dahua Its a logic I can't quite understand, I want to buy one brand but I want it to actually be another brand? What LOGIC? I didn't "want" a Dahua, per say. I bought the DVR on Amazon a month ago based on a lot of positive reviews. This was before I had stumbled across this forum. Also before I had even heard of Dahua. After reading quite a bit on here, I found that many Q-See DVR's were said to be rebranded Dahua's, and I was just curious as to who actually made my DVR.

goodolick 0 Posted February 2, 2015 Well good hunting, a lesson for the cheap as chips brigade, buy cheap, buy twice.... No truer words have ever been spoken. I bought cheap first go round, still saving for round 2, and round 2 is not going to be cheap. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
