shep3470 0 Posted November 1, 2007 Only 500GB for 16 channels at 15 fps/camera? Hope you don't plan on having stored video from more than a week or two. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mcs 0 Posted November 3, 2007 Better to get good frames and plent y of them, then 240-380 @ 2.5 fps like most PC based DVR's out there, Waste of time A guy took over a site we put heaps of cameras in, he rebuilt one of the dvr's because they have been installed for 4 yrs and never been serviced He didn't make any adjustments to the settings and didnt even put the site name in so its recorded on the footage Just whinged about the latest version being better then the old one , der My mate had his wallet stolen, one dvr was offline because when he rebuilt it, he didnt plug it into the ups- and the other where he moved all the cameras around and replaced a heap for the new owner, were out of focus and we got the mobile phone that got stolen, but its fuzzy, not going to be good proof.. so 1 week of PRIME footage is better then 2 mths of crap !

acableconnection 0 Posted November 5, 2007 Do I really need to set the cameras at more than 3 fps? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mcs 0 Posted November 5, 2007 I wouldn't bother with less then 10 on each camera, Unless they are not important, because its always the frame you miss when the guys face is looking right at the camera or what ever, Time lapse was about 5-6fps, and how bad was that on 16ch multiplexer, Why bother going digital if its lousy footage You can always use SMART recording and have the dvr pull frames from cameras with no activity to bump up the ones with activitiy on them Its not hard really Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
