this camera records everything on my hard drive or just shows what happens?

You can use software such as "ispy" to record multi cameras to the hard drive.

I would call the company & try to get another one, or just buy another system. I record my video on my desktop computer. Much easier to work with, never look at my recorder video.

I bought two of these cameras and they recorded in 5 minute intervals. In other words, they recorded five minutes, closed the file, and continued with another file. I tried different SD cards to see if that was the cause. I tried 16 Gb and 4 GB cards to see if the card mattered. I preferred a camera that would record a file continuously, so I did not investigate further.

The DNR and attached hard drive have to be in the same local network. You can playback the video that is recorded from anywhere. Maybe there is some hack that would make the DNR think the cameras are attached locally but not sure how that would work. The software it comes with is pretty clunky. This is no industrial setup to say the least.

It takes a few seconds before recording starts after you push record. As for looking at it, I don't think it knows if you're looking at it or not. Just push the record button, look wherever you want.

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

How do you know nothing records? How are you trying to view it. You must not disconnect the power before you push button to stop recording. Insert into computer and you should see files. I use Windows movie maker to process

Does this DVR record by the 4 cameras simultaneously in split of all cameras, or recording by camera sequence.?Does it incluid the 500 hard disk..?

It has a 500 gig drive and the cameras are motion so it only records when something walks pass and it also just goes threw a cycle on the history it automatically deletes stuff from months ago so you won't miss out on your new footage mine is still working like it just came out the box

I turned mine on and drove to my destination, turned the car off and exited leaving the camera hooked up. I found out later that it recorded for over an hour while the car was off and unoccupied.

The hard drive will record over the previous data by it's self. You don't have to do anything. If there is any data you want to save you will have to down load it before the hard drive rewrites over it.

It is a dvr. It records the video to a hard drive. After it records the video you can go back and review the recorded video.

The old files erase and the camera keeps recording without any input from you. Things to note get a trusted 32 gig card and format it in the camera and if you want to keep a event manually lock that video file so the camera does not erase it. If your vehicle bounces around like my semi truck turn off the G sensor option or you will have a lot of locked video files

Yes, lots of recording problem. It would keep going through file recovery mode. Had to switch to class 4

No it does not. Its recorded automatically to your hard drive if motion is detected.
