    EyeSpyPro Hosted Video Recording Service Gives You Peace Of Mind

    Monday, January 3rd, 2011

    We have had a lot of interest in the EyeSpyPro.com Hosted Video Recording service, and wanted to announce a change to the plans. This is a video surveillance solution that does not require large investments in recording equipment. What we do is host the video storage for you, so you don’t have to make an investment in a network video recorder. This service is ideal for homeowners or real estate investors who want to keep an eye on their property.

    A hosted video service is also great for any business, as you can use this as a 1-2 camera back-up service that will record and store video offsite, so even if a thief steals your video recording equipment, we have them on film far away, and you can access it on any Internet browser, iPhone, Blackberry, or Droid phone. Or if you have multiple locations, like sandwich shops, restaurants, gift shops, etc, you can put 1-4 cameras at each location, allowing you to access live video from any camera, as well as record all events.

    Check out some of the footage caught by an HVR Enabled Axis 207W at Wayne’s during their Tuesday night league.

    So we changed the service to a storage based solution, where you can pick your storage levels, depending on your needs. A 1GB package is $15.95 per month, and can record about 10 hours of straight video, enough to cover most shifts or hours of operation, or on motion detection, will record up to 7 days with 5% motion, or about 1.25 hours per day of video. After that, the oldest videos are deleted to make room for the current videos.

    You can be notified if motion occurs by email, as well if there is a power failure. You can also choose 7GB, 14GB, or 28GB, depending on your needs. You will save thousands on not having to buy an NVR, and let us worry about upgrades, back-ups, and other maintenance.

    All you need is a qualified AXIS network camera that is listed here, or if you have CCTV cameras, you can use an AXIS video encoder, and get good quality results. If the camera is already PoE, all you need is a PoE switch to power the camera, and record the video. If not, you can get a PoE splitter/injector to also power the camera, otherwise you need to power it with electricity.

    There are 41 different AXIS IP cameras to choose from, and 3 video encoders for legacy CCTV cameras. You can also take one of our wired hidden cameras, and hook it to a video encoder, for your covert, hidden camera applications. The software is super easy to use, and we will have our portal ready next week. You just log in to access the live feeds, and you can take a snapshot, or manually record 20 second clips.

    If you have a PTZ IP camera, you can zoom in/out with your mouse scroll wheel, or click to the right side to change the view to the right. You need about 400kbs per camera of upload speed, and for more info, give us a call @ 1-877-3-EYESPY (1-877-339-3779) for more information or to get started.

    Like all AXIS products, they have intelligent capabilities like motion detection, and detection of tampering with the camera like spray painting over the lens, moving, covering, or blocking, so you can be notified when recording is stopped.

    QNAP VioStor NVR Video

    Wednesday, September 1st, 2010

    QNAP made up a great video that shows the capabilities of their VioStor NVR’s and software. What is cool is how it has smart analytics, for example @ 2:23 minutes, it goes over their IVA or Intelligent Video Analysis.

    Moving objects, like people walking are surrounded by red squares for easy identification, then about 2:40, it goes over foreign objects. A guy drops a briefcase, and leave. There could be a bomb or other hazardous device, and the QNAP will quickly identify it and notify you.

    It also goes over the simple 6 step installation. Monitor up to 120 cameras with their software, and QNAP is compatible with pretty much every IP camera on the market.

    Linux based, free from the 10 million PC virus’s, trojan horses, and malware.

    If you are looking for a rock solid NVR that is easy to set up, easy to use, and is scaleable as you grow, QNAP has you covered.

    CTC Union Video Encoders Update Your Legacy CCTV Cameras To Network IP Cameras

    Wednesday, February 10th, 2010

    We just added the CTC Union line of Network IP Cameras, NVR Software, and H.264 Video Encoders – Decoders. The Video Encoders come in stand-alone versions, or blade versions that can go into 2, 4, or 20 channel rack mount chassis. A Video Encoder is used to bring your analog CCTV video surveillance system to the 21st century by digitizing the video, turning the camera into a Network IP Camera.

    Why? Well, the video resolution is better. With a megapixel IP camera, you can cover a whole parking lot, and using an ePTZ function, zoom into the important areas, and read a license plate.

    Or no interlacing problems. On moving subjects, they will be much clearer when you digitize the entire picture, not 1/2, then the other 1/2, as interlacing does on CCTV cameras. And with H.264, you can crush the size of the file down to a fraction of MJPEG, or 1/2 the size of MPEG4.

    The blades come with the ability to have a hard drive onboard, thus reducing the burden on your network. Dual streaming is standard, so you can browse on a normal PC without crashing it, as well as sending the compressed videoto your NVR.

    You will get D1 resolution @ 30fps, with quality that will rival Bosch, at a price of Vivotek…

    If you are looking to update your aging CCTV video surveillance system, check-out the full line of CTC Union H.264 Video Encoders.

    Update Your Old Surveillance System To The 21st Century With The Vivotek VS8102 H.264 Network Video Server

    Tuesday, January 26th, 2010

    We put up a few new Vivotek IP Network cameras, as well as their new Vivotek VS8102 H.264 Video Server.We love Vivotek because they provide good value. I read that value is where price and quality meet, and that is what you get with Vivotek.

    The H.264 Video server is the perfect way to take your current CCTV set-up and move into the 21st century of network IP video surveillance w/o breaking the bank. It allows you to hook up a CCTV camera, and turn it into a network camera, since a video server is really a network camera w/o the lens. So you use your current camera to not scrap your investment, unplug your camera from the BNC connector on the DVR, and plug it into the Vivotek video server’s BNC connector, hook it up with Cat 5 cable to a switch that is connected to your LAN, and you can send the signals over your local area network to be stored in a Network Video Recorder, or NVR or PC set up to store the video.

    The advantages of the H.264 over MPEG-4 is that the video is almost double the compression, up to 80% more compressed than MJEPG video. H.264 is MPEG-10, which saves you a lot of space on your network, so you can store more video over MPEG-4 or MJEPG.

    Vivotek even provides free software so you can have your cameras up & running in the blink of a chameleon’s eye. If you have been wanting to take advantages of the benefits of IP network cameras, such as bettery video quality with no interlacing problems, yet don’t want to scrap your current investment in CCTV cameras, the Vivotek IP Video Encoders are a good bridge from the past to the future.
