PAL ot NTSC

[Werner69 0]

I just wanted to order Dahua Cameras online and it ask me to choose between PAL or NTSC.

 

Which one should I choose? Does t matter if I use a PC to record? Or if I use NVR?

 

I know I Europe we have PAL and in US NTSC (The cameras are for US... Wisconsin)

 

I thought that this would only be for analog systems...

 

Thank you for your answer..

NTSC for north and south U.S. PAL for overseas.

Thank you.

 

Does it make any difference any more? Don´t all the systems know both already?

There is still a difference that i know of.

Difference appears in analogic systems (Cams + DVRs).

 

If you are using IP/Megapixel, that should not matter.

Thank you. This is what I thought.

 

I just ordered 5 Cams with NTSC for US. Can I also use them in Europe as I am changing my system in Europe as well?

 

3 of this one:

I hope they are ok. I just don´t know wheter I shoud use NVR or a PC to record as for me the most important thing is stability and accesss via internet.

I would always install a PeeCee. My backups server also handles the cameras; it is in a small cube case and has a 10TB BTRFS array. It's in the far end of the attic, in case of fire or theft.

 

And it has a SuperMicro mobo which has IPMI, vital for remote management.

Get a Hikvision instead and you don't have to decide, it has a drop down so you can chose at anytime.
