Best Free DVR Recording Software

[Zapnologica 0]

Good day all,

 

I have just build my self a dvr machine. I got a 8ch dvr recorder card.

 

Now it came with some software, but it is pretty poor.

 

What are the best FREE dvr recording programs.

 

Features that I would like:

 

ip / cctv / web cam support

Web interface / remote view

Motion detetion recording

 

 

If any of you know of any good programs please could you let me know. Preferably a FREE, not a trial version etc.

 

Thanks for the help

So, what DVR card do you have? Ara you aware that not all cards work with all softwares, and not all softwares work with all cards?

 

Many cards will only work with the software that comes with it.

I am not sure which card is it to be honnest.

 

Is there not like a open source dvr recording software that just works with multiple cards / video inputs?

Currently running windows. But if there is a reason to swap to Linux. I don't mind.

I've been very impressed with iSpy. Free open sourced program that allow Motion censoring, multiple camera, action/reaction type scenarios, scheduling, Email alerts via SMTP, Cloud storage hosted or via other hoster.

 

Mostly for free exception live monitoring on mobile and web apps for 5$ a month.

 

Check it out. It's worth a try. I've been pleasantly impressed.

Here is a package containing 3 different free cctv software and a couple of other useful applications for video surveillance.Includes H264 to avi converter and video player. They should fulfil your needs and full user manuals are included.

 

Free CCTV software for PC and Mac

 

Note: It has been designed for use with Maxx Digital DVRs but should be compatible with most other brands.
