Hi All,
I am thinking of purchasing a dome security camera with IR, but my main problem is recording the video feed. I want to know the cheapest and most convenient way to record the video feed.
All I know is that I can either record onto a video tape, which I don't want to do. Or I can record onto a DVR, which is too expensive for me. I can even record onto a computer with a PCI DVR card, but I don't want to leave my computer on just for recording the video feed onto.
What I want to know is whether it is possible to connect a camera to a hard drive or portable device to record the video feed. I don't need to view the live video feed but it would be good if I could. I just want memory space to record the video onto as an MPEG file for example. Afterwards I would like to then connect that device to my computer at my own convenience to watch the recording.
Possibly something like this : New CCTV 4 CH USB DVR Box 1 CH Real Time D1 Resolution on eBay, also, Surveillance, Gadgets, Consumer Electronics (end time 23-Jun-09 13:24:33 BST)
Is this possible?
Many thanks for your help.
