| Customer Reviews: Well worth the money July 16, 2009 Jeffrey Bryan (Orange Park, FL USA) 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I needed this item to work quickly and efficiently - and it did! Good price, quick delivery, easy to use, and there is now a scum serving 10 years. :)
The unit came with a CDROM with all the support software and installer program. Setup was easy, I just clicked for all the default settings and I was up and running in five minutes.
Works very well November 8, 2009 sciencectn 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
First of all, don't use the included CD. I think they included the wrong driver, and I emailed VideoSecu about it and they sent a link with the updated software. Here is the url to the software:
[...].
EDIT: It looks like it blocks external links (and it won't let me put it in my profile), so email me for the correct one.
Once I installed that, it worked perfectly. The most awesome thing about it is you can control Pan/Tilt/Zoom functions and watch the live camera feed remotely. You can also download your recordings remotely (but be sure to use Internet Explorer, because the remote monitoring software requires ActiveX).
The motion detection and alarm features are also very nice. You can make it record when motion is detected so you don't have the scrub through hours of recording nothing. You can also make it email you when motion is detected, and it can even attach a snapshot of what set off the motion alarm.
The frame rate may stutter a lot when you are using more than two video inputs, but the recording quality is not affected. You also want to be sure that if your cameras are wireless that there is a clean signal with no interference or disturbances. Any bit of interference will set off the motion alarm, and it will record nothing interesting (unless you find static fascinating).
Another thing; the DVR software does NOT work on 64 bit systems (but the remote monitoring will).
would not buy again April 21, 2010 lateeda 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Software is junk! Everywhere I look on the web I find people that have the same issue. When you start the "Super"DVR program it loads half way and then says something about directdraw failed to initialize and the it closes. I tried it on two windows desktop computers, a windows laptop and you can forget about linux unless you want to write your own driver. Ubuntu doesn't even recognize the device. I was able to get it to work on the laptop but ha I dont have enough disk space to record on that so what is the point.
Seems to me that the unit itself gets really hot to the touch when plugged in.
DO NOT PURCHASE THIS November 7, 2009 Joe E. Simons (Mid Missouri) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I purchased this over much cheaper ones, when I opened the box I notice that the software was bootlegged on a memorex CD and I tried to install it anyway, well they did not get the driver downloaded onto the CD so the whole thing is no more than a paper weight really feel like I was ripped off, I suggest buying one at radio shack or somewhere you can get support
