kdberg 0 Posted August 1, 2004 I have installed several Dedicated Micro DS2 installations for customers here in the US in the past. I now have two opportunities that I am not sure how to address: 1. single location requiring 32 cameras and ability for remote viewing over the internet. 2. three locations each requiring 16 cameras and ability for remote viewing over the internet. I know I could just install multiple DS2 units, but requiring the customer to logoff one DS2 on Network Viewer in order to log back on another DS2 would not be acceptable. I purchased a GV800 card to play with, thinking that their SW would be able to provide a GUI which integrated the video from multiple servers. Looking at the GUI packaged with the product, I am severely disappointed. These customers are used to using the DS2 GUI for real time monitoring and searching/displaying through prior days recording. I found using the GV GUI incredibly more cumbersome at best, and the customer would never accept it. Am I missing something? Is there a better GUI for the GV? Is there a better video card product I should be looking at? Or is there a simple DVR or multiple DVR solution I should consider (GUI as good as DS2 and similar price point, i.e. apx $2K USD / 16 cameras). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thomas 0 Posted August 1, 2004 There is software that can do it. For us, what we do is have our software share the same MSDE (MicroSoft Desktop Engine, or SQL Server 2000-lite). Then you can connect multiple DVR's together on a network. Our Network/Web Client will then display both machines. But we don't work on Geovision cards. With three remote locations I would suggest a VPN. Or with the webclient you could just use Firefox and set a bookmark that opens all three sites in the same group of tabs and just tab between them. I know some of our competitors can do it as well but I'll stop here before my bosses read this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cctv_down_under 0 Posted August 2, 2004 You probably are only using the web client to do it, instead of the remote playback serrver and did you use multiview to connect many DVr's to one screen Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
