    SV3C camera software.

    I have one SV3C camera running and am putting up another one soon. My experience has been that the hardware is very good, but the software is pretty useless. I run mine as an ONVIF camera through a Hikvision NVR. If you have an NVR that can use ONVIF cameras or a Blue Iris system, SV3C cameras...

    SV3C 1080P Full HD Poe IP Camera, Bullet Outdoor Security Camera with 2.8MM-12MM Varifocal Lens

    I've had their dome camera up and running since April and have had zero problems. The day and night images rival my Hikvision cameras and I'm very happy with it. I did order one of their varifocal cameras and am planning to run cable for it this weekend. If it works as well as the first camera...

    SV3C 1080P Full HD Poe IP Camera, Bullet Outdoor Security Camera with 2.8MM-12MM Varifocal Lens

    I got their fixed lens dome 1080P cam about a week ago. It takes some tweaking, but I like the picture and it seems stable, no reboots or dropouts after four days. I'm recording 24/7 and don't think I can do any motion detection through my Hikvision NVR. If it holds up for a month or two, I'll...

    Question for Syology or other NAS users

    Good evening! I'm considering using a NAS system to save video from my Hikvision camera as well as additional cameras as time goes by. My question has to do with power and/or internet outage. If someone breaks into my house they might well cut my power lines and internet feed if they see...

    Let's have some sound!

    Good afternoon, I just installed my first ip camera, a DS-2CD2532F-IS. It was pretty straight forward and the guys at Nelly's were very helpful. It works beautifully and I'm really pleased with it. Now I'd like to make it work with two way sound. I hooked up a pair of ear buds to the audio and...

    How to get started

    I've decided to start with one camera and scale up from there. I started out by ordering a fairly low cost no name 2 MP camera with on board SD storage. It had a beautiful picture, but the built-in mic wouldn't work. I tried to update the firmware from the vendor's site. The update failed and...

    How to get started

    I appreciate the information. I could tell from cruising the forum that there's a lot experience here. I am pretty comfortable with PCs, but I'm not committed to that route yet. If I go with an NVR, how is this one...

    How to get started

    Hello folks, I am just about to get started in home surveillance. I have done quite a bit of internet research, but I have have no hands-on experience yet. I know I want to go with IP 1080P cameras, but I haven't decided if I want to use an NVR or a dedicated computer or just have all my...
