Welcome Lopus,

Would you buy a Trabant as a car?

Remember there is some absolute garbage sold, and some good products coming out of China - thus

Before you jump take some time to review the cliff notes in the wiki

you are right, it is worse than that bad.
specs and processors are meaningless...if the firmware is shit, your experience will be terrible. But you know better. So just pick one. Doesnt matter I promise.

Hi Lopus,

If you plan to remotely connect to the system the software / firmware becomes even more important.

Take a look at the wiki cliff notes and securing your network notes.

Andy @EMPIRETECANDY will give you a quote on a good system why spend a few hundred buck only to lose it as
It doesn’t do what you need it’s just a waste of good money when you have to spend more money to get it right
Give him a private message you will be surprised on his prices

It sounds like your more concerned about the Chinese software, than the hardware..

Both are issues. Good hardware without good software or visa versa is still a poor solution.

I some times really wonder why people ask for advice with thousands of hrs of excellent experience on this site
I’m learning new stuff every day on parts of cctv I don’t mess with and the parts I do I understand fully
Only to complain why the collective group would waste there money on crap service and sub par components

I agree, I have a Brother-In-Law that does exactly the same thing to me and others.
