[QUOTE="SLIPSHOD & SLAPDASH, post: 342370, member: 16"] I am no expert on CCTV. I used to do a lot for a bespoke London installer many years ago but so much has changed i cant rely on that anymore. Recently i have been dabbling with the cheapest stuff i can find on Ebay and having a play with it. For some of my longstanding regular customers i have offered a cheaper install honestly telling them its unknown kit with no warranty & most have taken this up Nearly all the DVR's on the market seem to utilise the same Chinese D1, H.264 technology. I have bought off Ebay a 8 cam DVR with no memory but all ancillaries for £50 and a 1tb sata hard drive for about the same Most Swann stuff has 250gb if your lucky. I have also tried numerous makes of cameras from different suppliers. When they arrive they have the same sticker & most came from the same address in China, figure that out ? It seems all is going to change and i recon by the end of this year, analog will go and all cctv will be digital. Can anyone help me, can you get reliable cctv over the net without a static IP ?
