Can the system be configured to upload video to an off-site location?

Yes, with FTP you can push video to a remote location. Please refer to the Remote Monitoring Guide here for available recording options: http://www.q-see.com/content/files/guides/QC%20NVR%20Remote%20Monitoring%20Guide%20v1_web.pdf

I returned this system a few days after purchasing it. The installer was unable to install it. It was pretty complicated. I do recall that it was supposed to upload video to an off-site location. I just never got that far in the set up process. Sorry I could not have been more helpful.

It's not a plug in play solution. Yes you will have to set it up. The good news is that it's been done before and documented online. Some simple linux commands, copying and pasting and you'll should be able to get it up and running. You may need to tweak some settings in order to get it running right. So it may be some what of a learning process. The link to the blog I use is below. http://jeremyblythe.blogspot.com/2012/06/motion-google-drive-uploader-and.html

There are a few ways to access the drive from outside your home. You can integrate with Dropbox, which appears simple though I have not tried yet OR you can use the UPnP port Mapping feature which will (with simple home firewalls) automap the server through your firewall so you can use an external IP address and get to any of your documents or media. I was able to stream movies from my server to an Roku at my second home 120 miles away from my server. Go into the UPnP Port Mapping page, it will take time to load, then turn on the WAN and set the ports. Once that is done it will process the request. If it works with your firewall (PnP) you will get a success message and it will show the external IP in the center of the page. All you have to do then is substitue that external IP for your internal IP in a browser and you can get at any of your published shares.

Video files, even 480, can get very large. E-mail isn't exactly the ideal way to send video. Technically it should work but my workplace, for example, has a 2 mb limit on attached files.

Not unless you want to have access to you're system from any location then yes you would need to have it set up online other then that this system works awsome.Ive had it for almost a yr and I can honestly say I have no complaints.

You can upload content on the micro SD card slot that is available and play it while connected via USB. Otherwise you'll need a wifi connection for other streaming functions

I believe so, if you can stream other video content in that same manner, I don't see why it wouldn't work for content on DishAnywhere.

Yes you can. Because of the small amount of ram it may need to reload often. Some of my video seemed to run in slow motion.

No. There is no storage in the unit. I don't think it is even possible to access the video for remote storage. Something to look into. If the video format is one of several standard formats, say, AVI, it might be possible to tap the video lines and send to an AVI-to-USB converter, then to a computer for recording and storage.

Yes you can upload your video footage to a MAC if it has LION or above. I have to concure with others, extremely hard to fly, impossible for young kids.

I don't believe I saw that option. I have had issues with setting system up. I was excited when I purchased this, and when it arrived and we set up the quality was good, then when we went to set up to stream video we ran into difficulties, and reaching customer service is impossible. I have about given up with setting this up, and to top it off it does not come with hard drive nor the cd I had expected to aid with set up. The only thing that I can give information on is the video quality. So sorry I am of no help.

If you have internet and WiFi, you at least have a modem and a wireless access point, unless you live in a community that provides WiFi to the residents. For ANY camera system, if you want to be able to watch the video remotely, you need a router that can be configured for port forwarding. That kind of configuration is not rocket science, but requires some basic networking knowledge. If you don't know the meaning of terms like "IP address", "subnet mask", "NAT" and "port forwarding" I strongly suggest to look for someone that can do the work for you.

I believe so. The interface for this product is terrible. The instructions for setup is even worse. The quality of footage is great, and it was pretty easy to set up if you don't try to follow their instructions.

You need to have a hard drive in the unit, but can catch the RTSP streams coming out of the cams or the unit itself to a NAS/network drive.
