Is this the 2013 model DVR207 that 1.)Has the updated firmware to allow seamless recording - no gaps? 2.) Does this come with the updated car charger that doesn't interfere with the radio? 3.) Is the only difference between this model and the GS model...

I bought one a few months ago and it is indeed the newer version with the updated firmware and charger. Video is seamless and smooth up to 720 resolution. At 1080 the framerate drops and things get iffy. Judging by what I've read, the G Sensor is the only real difference between this and the GS.

The unit is rated at 3.6 Amps output max so you just need to find out the total amps of the chargers that come with the two devices. I did a quick look and it appears the Garmin factory charger is 1.0 amp and the Ghost 0.2 Amps. The Ghost charger seemed more to charge the battery, not sure if it designed to power the camera directly. Based on the size battery it has and how long it records I can't see it needing more that 1.0 amp so one of these should be able to power both. That being said, unless space is a big issue I'd recommend running 2 of these verses messing with a USB splitter and extending the cable length.

I was told by my vendor that the new model TG-830 has the GPS function which I love. The resolution is higher and is HD for the recording. You can do the comparison on both features. When I purchased mine the newer model cost about $100.00 more and now is about the same price.

It was in the previous firmware before webos. It could make a return. Just give them time to integrate it into the new software. They've been adding apps slowly. To be honest it only comes with the magic remote so you'll need another remote to control the dvr function anyway

I am a Vidéotron customer with a Illico DVR (Explorer 8300HD+ with 320GB hard drive). Western Digital web site reports compatibility with my Explorer is only with their 500GB model. I requested compatibility report to WD with their 1TB model and my Explorer but no news yet. I see many people with my Explorer model have installed the 1TB version and it appears to be working fine. I am undecided about buying either the 500GB or 1TB version. Do both versions work with my Explorer unit ? Can anybody confirm this? Please advise if you can. Thanks very much, regards.

This DVR allows you to record continuously 24/7 as long as you have enough room on your Hard drive. It does record all cameras connected if you choose to record 24/7. You can manually press the record button and will begging to record all cameras connected until you stop it or hard drive is full. You can also choose to record when motion is detected. Choosing this option, only the cameras that detect motion will begin to record, therefore allowing the hard drive to store only files in which motion is detected. Hope this answers your question.

It is seamless with no gaps. If you open the files at the same time (using the included software or Registrator Viewer which I prefer) it plays back as one seamless video, including GPS data.

I purchased this on February 20, 2014. And the pictures were different, and the unit I received looked like the pictures that used to be on this listing. The unit pictured now, looks nothing like my unit purchased in Feb, 2014. It's possible either someone hijacked this listing, or that this is a updated unit. Therefore, my information may not be of much help. However, on the unit that I have, you can NOT view the recordings via smartphone. Live feeds are all that is available via smartphone. However, while shopping for another unit for my father, I noticed the following unit specifically states that it supports playback via smartphone (at least on the 16 channel model, not sure about the rest): http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00DP88HWC/ Hope this helps!

I have two SERIES 3 and considered cost. We like to record several show during prime time, the Roamio made it possible. The 3TB upgrade in recording space alone was well worth it.

I don't know of any issues with the recorder, I've never had any problems with them, except one time I thought something froze, but restart fixed it, no problems since then. There is a firmware update on Olympus site but its not real recent. They don't make this recorder anymore. Sony has a new recorder/video cam coming out this month to take place of the Olympus but from demo's I've seen of that one the Zeiss lens isn't very sharp, the Olympus has a better lens from what I can see.

I am not using the HDD in question, I am using a Seagate SV35 1TB 7200RPM SATA 6-Gb/s NCQ 64MB Cache 3.5-Inch Internal Bare Drive for Video Surveillance ST1000VX000 in a security camera DVR. This system records 24/7 and I have not had any problems with it. Understand though that I am recording in 700 lines, not high definition. In addition, I am recording 8 cameras at the same time and still no problems. You should test to see if you find out why it is pixilating. Is it the connection to the unit, i.e. is it USB, HDMI etc.? Does it pixilate when recording in standard definition? You will also need to know the specs for a replacement drive from the manufacture as to drive speed, type, and maximum size. DVR are to use 24/7 if they are recording all the time. Also check to see if the system you are trying to connect the expander to will work with that expander. This information you need to get from the manufacture of the DVR. he reason I suggested testing and questioning is because I had a Brand new 55" TV that I was hooking up to a Home entertainment center that I could not get to work properly. I was finally directed by the manufacture to try the highest end HDMI cable. BANG, that was the problem, not the same but it does show that it can be a simple solution to an pain in the neck problem. Hope this helps.

I just started TV service through our local phone service (TDS-TV). The installer said the box is the same as a U-Verse box, just a different label on it. I was getting an "unable to copy" notice when trying to copy from the TDS DVR to our DVD recorder (Magnavox MDR535H) so I bought this Grex-7.4 unit. I can't get it to work. I have printed out the connection diagrams from the Dimax web site and none of them work for me. I get the DVD signal to the TV but no TV programming to it. I'm thinking that I may have gotten a bad unit, but I thought I would ask here if anyone has any tricks to getting this thing to work that I am missing. Thanks.
