Why choose a DVR to record your CCTV images?

Think of the DVR as a VCR that can display live video footage from multiple camera sources simultaneously and record them on a hard disk. Unlike VCR, there are no cassettes or tapes to change. You can search & review any recorded surveillance video based on date, time, camera, events, etc. You can playback video from single or multiple cameras simultaneously. You can also playback the recording while the recording is still on-going.

The DVR uses the hard disk as the recording medium. The length of recording for any DVR depends on many factors, including hard disk size, recording frame rates, recording picture size, number of CCTV cameras, picture quality and compression algorithms used. No changing of tape is necessary as the DVR can be set to overwrite mode to overwrite older video in the hard disk. When the hard disk is full video can be saved to a memory stick, CD or DVD.
