Need some advice on picking a good DVR

[Otech 0]

Hello Everyone

 

Ok so I'm new to this whole dvr cctv stuff and I need some help picking a good dvr.

I did some research so I know I should stick with something capable of D1 resolution and if possible 30 fps. I have looked at so many different brands but there is not alot of reviews out there on these types of system.

 

I am building my system piece by piece and looking to get a 8 channel system. This is for home use and I intended to only have about 4 cameras max but want to give myself wiggle room if need be.

Remote viewing smartphone/ internet is a must.

 

I've seen what looks to be some chepo brands but im not sure if they r good or not eg. Qsee, Zmodo, Swann.??

One dvr that looks promising is COP-USA DVRHRT8MD is this any good?

I'm willing to spend up to $800 on the dvr alone.

 

Any Help, advice info will be greatly appreciated.

Most here favor the Dahua brand, its rebadged in the US to many diferent brands. The hard part is finding a seller that will give you support after the sale. There was a good seller that advertised here but that relationship went sour and now you are off finding someone on your own.
