Network Video Recorders

04/10/2010 8:02 PM

I am using a 5 Mega pixel IP camera and want to remotely record high resolution, minimally compressed streaming video at 10 to 15 frames per second on a computer.

I have tried configuring the camera for direct export in .AVI and .MJPEG formats, and FTP export of .JPG files. I have also tried a couple of different NVR software packages, but I have not been able to get over about 3 frames per second. Even though the task manager shows the 100 baseT LAN use is at less than 25% and CPU at less than 40% and I have plenty of physical memory.

I would like you to make recommendations that may help me to achieve this goal.

Have you checked your camera and software manuals carefully? It may be something as simple as a default software setting that is limiting the speed (not the hardware itself). Perhaps it has a speed limit for default dial-up bandwidth that needs to be changed.

Check with CYtech in Shenzhen. They have a low cost 4 channel system with USB connector. 4 video 520 lines, 2 audio.

Thanks for the suggestions, the problem was caused by the ethernet network switch. It seems that a crossover has less latency!
