Mandy 0 Posted August 22, 2013 I'm installing Honeywell's DVM system and my customer asked for 10 minutes pre-recording upon motion on their cameras. I believe this does not make sense. I would like to propose 10 - 30 seconds as a typical pre recording time and I'm looking for a good reasoning to justify it. any suggestion? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shockwave199 0 Posted August 22, 2013 It depends if the camera can even see anything ten minutes previous to the detection. There can be some instances where a longer pre record is useful but over like a minute, it's better to work out a full time/motion recording scheme between cameras. Sometimes if you need to see everything, recording full time on one or more cameras is the better way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
