Wasn't sure what subforum to use but here goes.
Im a complete newb to security and surveillance systems. With anything it seems the best option is to roll your own with combination of a prepacked DVR system and augment it with speciality items. Need day surveillance but mostly night bacause thats when things have been happening. Going to add some good IR zoomed cams with supplemental IR floods pointing towards the trouble spots.
My question is this: probably going to have 5-6 cameras. I've seen onscreen monitoring of multiple cams (like the ones at costco) and its one screen equally split into however many cams are running. When you replay a DVR recoring of an event, does the system record a full screen for each camera or are you limited to viewing all of them in that split screen? For instance can you isolate one cameras view into full screen to zoom in and capture detailed stills?
