I have the IP or Tvi decision to make for my brothers house. IP would be my preferred choice but ££ is what matters to my brother. The extra features of IP are of no use ti him as all he wants is a 1080p observation system. Tvi suits him fine.

Run Ethernet so he can replace it later...he will want to...

What are your opinions on TVI systems? love them or hate them?

I personally have no opinions positive or negative regarding TVI systems.

Now, that being said, all readers of this post, please take note of the name of this forum. It's "ipcamtalk.com".

'Nuff said.

If there is a Tvi forum please point me in that direction.

If cabling is not a problem Average Joe residential installs can only be Tvi unless one likes to burn money.

its not burning money if you get much more functionality and redundancy. Thousands of users here have done it...

If one requires the basics Tvi is an option. If one requires more IP is the option. POC is a game changer for those on a slim budget.
I expect the price difference between the two to shorten. But for today Tvi is great value.

However I respect this forum as the best IP camera forum and will no longer post about the “other” cameras.

the forum is not limited to ip cameras...there is a place for tvi and it has been discussed many times - when retrofitting and running new lines is cost prohibitive..otherwise it is just a tool for unscrupulous installers to make more money by paying less for parts....
