easyed 0 Posted September 16, 2004 I am building a system to operate in our bar, I am interested in recording in real time and more importantly remote viewing in real time. I will be useing 6 to 8 cameras to start with and add more later. My question is when the system is recording and I start the remote viewing is it going to reduce the fps of recording or viewing? Os: Win Xp Pro Motherboard: i865PE IS7 ABIT ATX RTL Processer: Intel P4/2.8EGHz 800M 478P/1MB HT RT Memory: DDRAM 512M Mushkin Hard Drive: 160 GB Sata Samsung SP1614C 8MB Video Card: Aopen GF4 MX4408X DDR64MB TV RT Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
loop 0 Posted September 16, 2004 You shouldn't have any problems. Better use 2X256MB DDR in order to take advantage of the Dual Channel DDR technology. How exactly do you intend to view remotely in real-time? Do you intend to view it over LAN? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
easyed 0 Posted September 16, 2004 Ok this is what my I have from my order, but it is just on one stick should I have two sticks for dual cannnel.

easyed 0 Posted September 16, 2004 I'm sorry I forgot to reply about the remote viewing. I plan on useing the remote viewer in geovision and connect over the Internet, via cable connection 3000 Kbps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cctv_down_under 0 Posted September 16, 2004 Couple of things... 1/ You will not achieve real time recording at 640x480 only 320x240, that is UNTIL Geo releases its new Hybrid Board (POOP did I let the cat out of the bag again), no system unless usuing hardware onboard compression will achieve that at such a resolution. 2/ I would go for an optimised Mem Stick that has dual DDR channel technology, do not know Muskin but I know Corsair sells Twin X. 3/ I would go for a GIG of ram, the ram is what works hardest when you connect to the system remotely 4/ I have never tried a samsung HDD I would stick to a Seagate one with the buffer. Just my two cents Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

easyed 0 Posted September 18, 2004 dusan Thanks for your reply about the components but I have already put this together with the items I described, I read some good reviews about the samsung drives is why I decided to go with it, Although I have ordered another 512 stick of memory so I can get the ddr benefit. I think maybe you misread my message about the cable speed it is 3000 kbs instead of 300kbs. I would think the upload speed would be sufficent, btw this is only for private viewing and would not include mutiple connections and would just be occasional viewing. I am a newbie to the cctv thing but learning, Thanks to everyone that replied Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rory 0 Posted September 18, 2004 3MB upload or just download?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
easyed 0 Posted September 18, 2004 Thanks for the reply Rory, Sorry I was the one that misread the post, 3MB download and yes about 300kb for upload. How much is required for just (1) connection and viewing 6 to 8 cameras. Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rory 0 Posted September 18, 2004 Ours is approx 384KB upload and works fine using Cable, when its in the 128KB speed such as our DSL here it is way too slow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dusan 0 Posted September 18, 2004 calc video bw save one frame of your video and x (8-15fps) by frame speed add 20% adsl overhead and that is what your bandwith need is saved frame is in Kilobyte bw is in kilobit so it x 8 more simple thumb rule i use for internet upload speed req 10-200KB one frame x 8 + 20%=10 to convert to bits+overhead x 8-30fps = bw in kilobit like adsl 1500/256k or cable 3000/300k 2nd number is upload speed from you to internet first number is download speed from internet in kilobit dusan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
