Portable SD Digital Video Recorder

Small and extremely versatile for a 2 Camera DVR. This little unit utilizes AVI compression for recording and playback which offers beautiful picture quality. Video playback further offered 320x240 resolution at 10 FPS, which is definitely a very smooth playback (not jerky in the slightest). Includes a Video Out cable for viewing on your TV or Monitor all your recordings and live picture display. Live picture display is in JPEG format. While JPEG format is certainly not as sharp as the units AVI recordings, generally the concern to most is the recording end of it and not necessarily the live display. Next, due to it's size, the unit sets up in less than a minute. Simply plug one or two cameras into the included dual Video In cables, plug the unit in and in just seconds, it's powered up and ready to go. It's that quick! Further includes a 2GB (maximum) SD Card slot for data storage which allows you to transfer recordings to any compatible PC, and since the recording format is in AVI, virtually any PC can playback the recorded video without the assistance of the SD DVR. Recording times vary +/- 10%, but expect approximately 3 days recording for 2 cameras or 6 days for one using a 2GB SD Card. Other features include, Date/Time Stamp, Motion Detection recording, Auto Cycle recording - automatically overwrites old data if desired, a Snap Shot picture mode (merely takes a picture, rather than recording video), a convenient On Screen Display for simple navigation throughout the DVR's many other features. Enjoy the unit and the price! 1 Year Warranty.

Includes: One Portable  SD Digital Video Recorder, Power supply, A/V In Cables and A/V Out Cables. Optional SD Card available during check out.

Portable Handheld Mini-DVR

This item and the one below, are the two smallest, truly portable DVRs! Yes, there's other DVRs which are similar in size, but the others don't have an internal battery pack enabling true portability, nor are their features as desirable as these two. We should say now, the difference between this one and the one below is style and an LCD monitor. Other than that, they're identical. So lets get started with the features! Aside from them being the smallest portable lightweight Digital Audio & Video Recorder on the market today, they utilizes MPEG4 compression that's near DVD quality for recording. Their video playback offers up to 640x360 resolution at 30 FPS (Frames Per Second) or in other words, real-time speed. Further, they include an 'A/V Out' so you can watch your live/playback on any regular TV or Monitor. Live display picture resolution ands format is a JPEG 640 x 480.  Also included is the power supply that either powers the unit or recharges the built-in Li-ion battery. Battery life is approximately 2.5 - 3 hours +/- 10%. Further the unit contains an SD Card slot for data storage. Recording times will vary +/- 10%, but you can expect approximately 2 hours recording on a 1GB, and 4 hours recording on a 2GB SD card. Other features include Motion Detection recording and Auto Cycle recording (automatically overwrites old data if desired). Other conveniences include a Belt Clip for easy carrying and a Remote Control for easy navigation via its OSD (On Screen Display).  Folks, grab yourself a camera or two and you're set! 1 Year Warranty.

Includes: One Portable Handheld Mini-DVR, AC charger and power supply, internal Li-ion Batteries, A/V In Cables, A/V Out Cables, Remote Controller, Belt Clip. Optional SD Card available during check out.

Includes a built-in 2.5" LCD Monitor for live display and or its video/audio playback. However if you require a larger screen for viewing, included on the unit is a 'A/V Out' so that you can watch your live/playback on another TV or Monitor. Live display picture resolution offered in JPEG 640 x 480 format. JPEG is not quite as sharp as the MPEG4 recording portion, however generally the concern to most is -- the recording.

DiGiCam H.264, 120 & 240 FPS PC Based Digital Video Recorder

OK Folks, not only is H.264 the BEST technology, hands-down, on the market today, but we're also claiming to offer by far the lowest priced H.264 DVR packages you'll find anywhere! No kidding. Now we should point out -- other PC DVR versions which are similar in pricing, will not be utilizing H.264 technology! Instead, they'll be using JPEG, MJPEG or MPEG4 video compression technology which is by no means state-of-the-art or cutting-edge! Further, of our competitors who do have similar pricing and who do have H.264 (today - only a choice few) they're only offering 30 FPS (Frames Per Second) at these prices. How can we be so sure? Well, let's just say we've shopped around and know our competition! And as for ours? Our DiGiCam delivers a whopping 120 or 240 FPS!  Folks, couple this type of Frame Rate with H.264 and you'll receive some of the smoothest, clearest, digital imaging this industry is capable of delivering to date!  Further, H.264 digital audio/video compression is approx 25% greater than MPEG4. Please note: MPEG4 is best the industry offered, until now!  In a nut shell, what's this mean? Recording time is approx 25% greater than the other compression formats. Data transfer over phone line, network, WI-FI, etc. is also increased by approx. 25%. Yet we believe the perk is the quality. However, let's discuss features. Recording is sent directly onto your computer's hard drive and depending on your settings, is capable of recording thousands of hours with little or no intervention. Includes Pre-set schedules (on/off times) to record. A Motion Detector mode which triggers recording for the length of time there's activity on the screen. Email notification - the minute there's any activity, in any or all cameras - it emails a picture of what triggered the event. Remote Access - Monitor your site from anywhere in the world by utilizing any computer, laptop or PC which has a regular modem or any access type to the internet (ISDN, DSL, Cable, etc), or monitor through any network type, all accomplished by using any regular web browser to remotely access and control all your cameras with our DiGiCam H.264. However for this and other features including PC requirements, please see:  More Features, Installation & Min. Requirements

Includes: DiGiCam PCI board/cards with BNC video input(s), RCA to BNC adapter(s), CD with software program and drivers needed for PC hookup/install and instruction manuals.

Please note: Our Single DiGiCam package includes our USB connector cable which utilizes your computers USB port (not a PCI slot).

DVR 4000, 4 Channel Stand-Alone Unit

This is simplicity at its best! Merely plug your cameras into the back of the unit, grab a TV or CCTV Monitor to plug this unit into, locate a wall outlet for power and you're set! It's that simple. In fact, if you can operate a VCR, then you can tackle this. Operates just like a VCR -- via Play, Record, Rewind, Fast Forward, Pause, etc. buttons which allow you to view a single or multiple camera(s) being monitored or were previously recorded. Offers a Time and Date stamp on the camera images, including a Search function by Time, Date and Event. Has Multiplexing capabilities which allows the user to monitor, record and view previous recordings simultaneously and in any order desired. Programmable recording settings which include a Motion Detection mode, i.e. when the screen, image changes it will trigger recording for the length of time there's activity in any or all cameras OR select pre-set Daily recording schedule for as many cameras as you desire. Display resolution is 720x480 with a recording resolution 640x224. As for the Hard Drive, you'll be pleasantly surprised to know that we have already included an 80 Gigabyte HD for recording and data storage. However, if 80 GB isn't enough, then purchase our 250 GB HD which will yield a max continuous recording of 332 hours. Next, you'll be glad to know that our SDVR-4000S unit offers a whopping 120 FPS (Frames Per Second) or 30 FPS per camera. That's real-time display! Folks, if you've shopped around you'll already know that features of this type aren't offered at prices this low! 1 Year Warranty.

Includes: one SDVR-4000S Stand-Alone unit with 80 GB HD (see below for 250 GB HD option) 4 RCA video input adapters and one power supply. You need nothing more than cameras and a TV or Monitor to plug this unit into!

DiGiCam DVR (Digital Video Recorder) Stand-Alone Unit

If you want simplicity, then this is your ticket! Merely plug your cameras into the back of the unit, grab a TV or CCTV Monitor to plug the unit into, locate a wall outlet for power and if you desire, a Network Ethernet connection for remote off site monitoring of your setup (optional) and you're set! However with simplicity, technical features are sacrificed. In other words, when you compare our DVR PC version (seen above) or most other PC DVRs on the market, PC DVRs should/will offer more tools for surveillance and remote monitoring than Stand-Alone units. However if all you're wanting is a Digital Video Recorder to take the place of a VCR, then a Stand Alone DVR will do just that! For starters, it operates just like a VCR. Simply press the Play, Record, Rewind, Fast Forward, Pause, etc. buttons to view a single or multiple camera(s) that are being monitored or were previously recorded. Offers a Time and Date stamp on the camera images. Has Multiplexing capabilities which allows the user to monitor, record and view previous recordings simultaneously and in any order desired (all at once or all at one time!) Programmable recording settings which include a Motion Detection mode, i.e. when the screen, image changes it will trigger recording for the length of time there's activity in any or all cameras OR select pre-set Daily recording schedules for as many cameras as you desire. Offers Pan, Tilt and Zoom controls for compatible PTZ cameras (including our line of PTZ cameras) by assigning various Key commands for control OR using a PTZ Joystick Keyboard controller that may be plugged directly into the back of the unit via its RS-232 connection. Further, it provides off site remote access via its downloadable and included software (the Remote Access feature is an OPTION, below). Simply utilize a Ethernet/network connection (RS232 cable not included) and you'll be able to remotely monitor your cameras from any PC w/internet connection anywhere in the world. Also we include a portable CF memory card slot for storing and transporting recorded data. Has 5 individual Alarm Relay inputs on the back of the unit for those who would like to tie their alarm/security system into it. This allows the unit to trigger recording once an alarm zone is triggered. A key-lock is provided to secure your Hard Drive from would-be tampering. And speaking of Hard Drives, maybe now is a good time to compare this issue and other matters to our competition. First you'll be pleasantly surprised to know that we have already included an 80 Gigabyte HD for recording and data storage. However, if 80 GB is not enough, then purchase our 250 GB HD. This should be more than ample for almost any situation! Next, you'll be further surprised to know that our DiGiCam Stand-Alone unit offers a whopping 120 FPS (Frames Per Second) on our 4 Camera unit and 240 FPS on our 8 and 16 Camera units. Folks, as we mentioned, if you've shopped around you'll already know that features of this type are not offered at the prices we're listing our units at! Enjoy!!! 2 Year Warranty.

Includes: DiGiCam DVR Stand-Alone unit with 80 GB HD (see below for 250 GB HD option) BNC/RCA video inputs, individual BNC camera outputs including an S Video Output, lock and key for HD protection, Ethernet connection and software (option). You need nothing more than cameras, and a TV or Monitor to plug this unit into!
