thewireguys 3 Posted July 18, 2013 I can get HD-SDI cameras cheaper then those Dahua domes. HD-SDI does a couple of things better then IP and you have to see it live side by side to appreciate them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MR2 0 Posted July 18, 2013 it would add to the discussion if you feel like posting them? I would never have even thought about the IP latency until you posted about it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MR2 0 Posted July 18, 2013 No worries, I just went and tested with a (clapped out)laptop running the smart client through wireless, and depending on where I walked with it the pings to the server were around 1ms up to 100ms, the response times of the image seemed to be from around half a second to two seconds (seemed largely dependent on the laptop and wireless behaving interesting stuff. on the Downsides to PC based NVR 1, it needs a pretty beefy computer 2, it needs a set of disks 3, if you want more than 10 camera's expect to need a good amount of reasonably fast disks 4, PC based NVR's offload processing to the client, so if you have an old PC or laptop and want to view a large amount of camera's at once expect it to struggle 5, the processing for mobile clients is done on the server, it's well capable of swamping a pair of quad core xeons even with only 10 camera's!
