Software is abundant, all software work right out of the box, PC, Mac OS X, Ipod Touch, my Android pads which Lorex software wouldn’t work with my Thrive Android pads, I don’t have Android phones so I can’t try. Motion Sensors work very well, I use for all channels to save disk space.ĥ. I only use 4 channels, so I record them all at H960x480 23 fps (I must set the other 4 channels 5-8 to CIF 1fps).Ĥ. So it’s not really full 8 channels at H960. The TL-DVR8 doesn’t allow different format on different channels – if we chose H960, all channels must be recording with H960 format – Can’t mix match H960 and D1 formats. We do want the higher fps, the higher fps for more channels, the more expensive the box become.ģ. H960 recording 23 fps on 4 channels and less if more channels hooked up- The less fps (frames per seconds) the less smooth the videos become. No Alarm feature – I don’t really need it.Ģ. These are the specification of the TL-DVR8:ġ. TL-DVR8 has almost the same specs as L-DVR8, both have very little descriptions, but the important features that I need are 8 channels – H960 resolution capability (960×480) – D1 (720×480)- PC – Android – Mac – Iphones – Ipod Touch remote access. I found the DVR box TL-DVR8 from Night Owl for $127 including everything shipped to my door from. I decided to return the box to Costco because I didn’t really need all 8 cameras and I hated the tax I had to pay for $100 instant rebate. It was a very good system for the price: 8-700tvl cameras and a DVR box with all the necessary components for a camera surveillance security system. So, I came back to Costco and found Lorex H960 resolution camera system on sale for $399. Our Q-See DVR box seemed to die sometimes in October and the warranty was expired (later it revived by me), it’s been working very well for 19 months. There is no Night Owl lite on iOS any more.
