The recording time is dependent of your setting on your DVR, whether you save more recording time by activating motion detection. And the size HDD you buy. You can leave your system to record non-stop but the amount of recording time is subjective to your HDD size.

Depending on the size of the media storage connected to the recorder - approximately at 5 to 6 GB per hour for HDTV signal. I have a 750 GB USB drive connected to it and so it can record over 130 hours of TV shows.

This is not a dvr...it's a camera. The recorder you choose will determine if it uses motion activation or continuous record.

Hello Cole, How much video you can store on your DVR's hard drive depends on several factors. Please follow this link to determine how many days of footage you can get based on your resolution settings: http://qsee.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/14/kw/how%20long%20will%20my%20dvr%20record%3F

I do not know.. But, I can tell you that I have the 4 cam system on motion sensor (event) recording. With a busy store it can often record continous all day, until we close the store and then it doesn't record much other than a security guard walking by the entrance a few times overnight.. Typically, I am experiencing 17-19 days of recording with the 1TB drive.

2to 3 days,then the memory will get full,its best to set it on motion detection record,that way you only record when it detects motion,that way you don't use a lot of memory up for nothing.

I did calculation before. As I can remember, roughly speaking, for a 250GB hard drive(I put a 2.5 inch sata laptop hard drive inside the box), I could make uninterrupted recordings from two channel cameras for 2 weeks long.

And to answer your question the dvr can record 24/7 for about 8 months before you run out. 500gigs is a lot bro

You can still record a channel as a series, or new episodes (confirmed) BUT, you must have an external hard drive attached to have the full capabilities with the DVR. This also includes the ability to record 2 channels at the same time while watching a 3rd recorded episode. You do not have to schedule every single day, to get the shows you want recorded.

I'm not at my dvr at the moment - but you can record audio on at least channels 1 and 2. I do not believe audio record is available on the other 14 channels. For channels 1 and 2 you can add a microphone to the cameras and connect to the dvr.

It depends on the format and resolution you want to record at. It also depends on whether you set it at motion detection or continuous record. If its on motion detection record then it depends on how busy the area to record is. A camera set on high resolution to record continuously might last a day or two, but on motion detection it should last a week or more depending on how busy the area is.

You can expect somewhere between 2 and 3 months of storage with the four cameras running. After that period of time, it records over the furthest day back so you always have the 2-3 months or so of recordings.

no idea, you can record all the channels but you will not be able to look at each one in full screen on a DVR. The unit record up to 30 days so no need to record on another DVR ?

I have mine hooked up to the vcr until i get the DVR. The VCR only records as long as the tape is (6-8-10 hour tape). My neighbor got the DVR that goes well with the cameras and they can record 24/7. You do have to erase it. I think theirs goes to 385 hours and they bought a hard drive extension. I am going to get one asap then i will be able to tell you first hand.

The 500GB it came with seem to cover about 30 days. I have three of the four cameras recording continuously. There is a way you can also view the cameras remotely thru the Internet...I have not tried that feature yet but I have it hook with my local network and I can access the cameras from cellphone and PCs as long I am connected to my Internet network.

According to the documentation, it should record up to 29 minutes or 2 GB. But the only time I tried to record more than 10 minutes was my cousin's wedding, where it froze on me. So whether it's actually capable of recording up to spec, I couldn't say.

I never tried it but it seems reasonable that it would record from a DVR. Since I got rid of it years ago I can't test it to see if it would, however. Good luck!
