    Where to by Hikvision? - How to tell I got a US version?

    i did order a couple cams from 123security & they have the red/white box - i''ll get a pic up soon also, i found 123security's "company" page where they say "Authorized dealers, like us, offer peace of mind" so they say they are an authorized dealer for their LINE CARD =>...

    Where to by Hikvision? - How to tell I got a US version?

    bump this - i have the same ? about 123securityproducts.com from what i've read, a chinese cam will have CH in the serial #, but then there are nonUS english language cams out there & i've not found anything describing how they are identified / different from US

    giving this a bump -> Razer - hope you find some time for comment would especially like to hear more about 123security from you or anyone, especially if you had to return anything or get something fixed/exchanged under manufacturer's warranty. before i consider spending $1000s with them i'd...

    help me spec PC(s) for 30+ cam system

    whatever your deal breaker was i havent found it or it's not a breaker for us. i read some reviews that were a few years old & they rated exacq higher than DW then for sure - havent read a recent one that talks about features in particular, just that DW was better/more popular than before...

    help me spec PC(s) for 30+ cam system

    thank you fenderman & Razer - i need a bit more time to put together a detailed response to Razer, but i will note that i met with a DW & exacq rep & sampled their systems & see they are comparable in features i'm looking for & system requirements (resource use) when running 4 cams but don't...

    help me spec PC(s) for 30+ cam system

    thanks for your perspective. i've tested BI before the intelHD updates. since it was more resource demanding for direct to disk recording (no motion detection) than DW or exacq (using motion detection) which i also tested, perhaps some pc specs for BI running these 30+ cams would be more than...

    help me spec PC(s) for 30+ cam system

    why not? features. perhaps you can enlighten this n3wb & point me to some NVRs that are able to do synced & staggered multichannel playback, search for changes in a subarea of a recording & have mobile apps that behave like well designed mobile apps & not just an "easy" web page. (btw - i am the...

    help me spec PC(s) for 30+ cam system

    the system will be installed in 3 stages - there are 2 buildings and a storage lot to be covered. i dont know if it makes sense to put it all on 1 server or if 2 will work just as well or better. familiar with both exacq & digitalwatchdog SW features & like them, with DW being the cheaper...

    q-see qc824 n00b question

    greetings - i have a qc824-4p4-1 nvr with 4 POE wired cams still in the boxes to set up & would like to know if i can add 1 or more wireless IP cams on the network to the unit & record it, or if i would have to remove wired cams to make room? the manuals aren't clear about it. i'm guessing that...
