Re: [WISPA] DVR experience

The Mobotix is the bomb.  We use them at tower sites, in our office and I
have a tricked out system at home as well.  DVR software is included and the
Camera's are truly edge devices.  We actually run both the DVR, FTP and
capture with ONSSI at the same time.  This allows us to have local consoles,
long term storage and backup at the datacenter.  I can't say enough good
things about Mobotix.

I've had reasonably good luck with Axis IP Megapixel cams, and OnSSI
DVR software. Bosch has a nice line of traditional cameras, and their
DVRs are hybrid, allowing the addition of IP cameras.

Thanks Ryan, I have a Mobotix cam. I'm not looking for ip cams.
Looking for traditional cams.

I just used one of these:
http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=4442425sku=L350-0013

I kinda like it, except it uses quicktime for the streaming.

Have you tried the Bosch and you like it?

Do you remember the price you paid by chance?

He said, for the money you spend on an ip cam, you could get a lot of

I don't know very much about cameras, figured there is some experts here

We have always used Geovision with analog cameras. It works well and down

The composite video link is the likely limit for most inexpensive 
cameras. 

I used an Axis 240 box a long time ago for a webcam, and it had multiple 
inputs. The svideo input looked a lot better than the composite, so I 
used a cheap 2nd hand hi-8 video camera for it's input. svideo is 
probably no better than 640x480 digital.

I've used the IQeye for several years with 5 megapixels giving me a
terrific view with fine detail (like license plates 100 feet away at
night).
http://www.iqeye.com/megapixel-network-security-camera.html

They are Web servers in addition to every other possibility you can think
of.

They automatically switch from day to night BW and become incredibly
sensitive to IR.  I have a cheap IR lamp that makes the night front
acreage look like daytime but is invisible to the human eye.

Anyway, they've been totally reliable for several years without a single
reboot required.
