Will this record from a camera? If not, will it interface with a security dvr or similar recorder?

I have not used this device with either a camera or DVR. I have used it with an Insteon PIR motion detector. That was annoying as the hub itself. I have two of these hubs and if it wasn't for my Insteon light modules used throughout the house, I would have pitched them both in to the trash.

I've got to make an assumption that you are using a security system, and is the basis of your question. If your security camera has digital output, it can be recorded and stored on an external hard drive.

It will play directly to your TV, but I do not believe it has the capability to record from a DVR as there is no interface or ability to drag/drop what you wish to record. I'm not the most tech savvy so if somebody else knows how to do this I would be very interested in hearing it. I would think there would need to be a middle piece of equipment to connect the DVR and the Recorder.

It just steam to computer for real time viewing. If recording is desire, then u would need a program like securityspy or sighthound video and many other program could do the recording on motion detection.

You will need a usb DVR dongle. It will be a USB that has rca connectors on it.

It does not record by it self, you need a security cam recorder for it, or a computer card with an RCI entry.

Does not record. You will need vcr or dvr if you want to record. I prefer dvr.

I've never encountered your situation, but it seems to me that any signals that enter the recorder should record ... if you have a cable that goes from HDMI to RCA. Good luck!

Any DVR will work if the inputs match up. But consider this... The camera is a 600TVL output and a lot of the cheap DVR's wont be able to show you the clarity of live video feed that the camera is actually putting out, and certainly a cheap DVR will not be able to record at that resolution.

This camera simply connects to a surveillance camera DVR. It doesn't record to itself.

Yes. It will still record/view on the DVR and on local LAN/Wifi Network without issue

its a feature that is controlled by your security dvr, not the camera. so yes on my stem, it will motion detect/record.

No, the camera itself does not record. It capture image only. You may record on your phone, ipad or computer. If you need DVR function, additional software needed for PC.

We have it connected to a digital DVR and it does record. Remember this unit only splits the signal from the cameras. So we use it to display on an extra monitor other than the one connected to DVR.

You'll need a DVR recorder and a camera wire to make this camera work.

Yes, but it captures at an uncompressed bitrate, which will take up lots of space on your hard drive. A CCTV camera, that is running for hours, if not all day, would require massive amounts of storage, if you use this product. A CCTV DVR, which captures, and compresses, HD-SDI signals, is probably a better option for you. Good luck!
