MRWHITE35 0 Posted November 6, 2005 Have just purchased a cheap 4ch DVR card off eBay, it came with pico 1.8 software, which is rubbish. Anyone know where I can download the latest version? Or any other good software that will work with this card. Thank you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scottj 0 Posted November 6, 2005 I would suggest that you buy your components from a reputable supplier direct, or contact the supplier who sold you the card through Ebay. There are many pirated boards, and we are not to support those in this forum due to rule changes by the site owner and Administrators. Please see the link: http://www.cctvforum.com/viewtopic.php?t=3301 Thanks, Scottj Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MRWHITE35 0 Posted November 6, 2005 Sorry mate, I didn't even know that you could get pirated cards! I've hered of pirated software certainly, but certainly not hardware.... I only wanted a cheap set up to help protect my car, and house. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scottj 0 Posted November 6, 2005 I completely understand, no harm, no foul. There have just been so many people needing Ebay support that rules were put into place to help eliminate the idea of people using pirated software/hardware etc. There are many legitimate dealers/reps in here that sell products with support, and we encourage that method if at all possible.

a94cobra 0 Posted January 25, 2006 I havn't bought anything off eBay in the forms of these DVR cards. But surely not all of them are selling pirate cards? Must be a way to tell. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jasper 0 Posted January 25, 2006 Yeah, when you get them home. You don't even know if they are showing a correct photo on Ebay. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thomas 0 Posted January 25, 2006 I'm sure some of the cards on E-bay are legit. But if you're asking me which way I'd place my money if I had to bet.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Securitymaster 0 Posted January 25, 2006 I can tell you that midwestcctv sells their stuff in ebay, which to be honest, is not a good business practice since they are supposed to be a distributors for dealers. I can tell you that their stuff is legit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
a94cobra 0 Posted January 25, 2006 I buy quite abit of stuff off eBay. And 98% of the time, I get what is advertised. I have bought some used cameras off eBay(to keep cost down), but no DVR cards. I know alot of distributors sell their products on eBay to sell more product, even though it is against thier policies. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
