LTS LTD08HTDK 8-Camera H.264 Realtime DVR Security System with 500GB, Mobile Phone Live View, VGA outputI searched around for a fairly decent surveilance system with a limited budget. I thought this was it. But, I soon discovered not everything is what it's cut out to be. When I received this system, I read over the box, before opening it to see if everything matched the description on Amazon.com. It looked good, then I opened the box and soon began to be disappointed. The packaging looks great, everything nice and clean, but I soon discovered the camera base & mount bracket were not the same as that pictured with the description! Then I started reading the manuals and looking at schematics provided, to find that the description is misleading in its portrail of what this system can do and how it does it, and customer service from the manufacturer is extremely disappointing. The company that provides this product has poor customer service, the sales staff does not know what they are doing or saying. The technical support is non-existent...you get a message to leave a call back number--they'll get in touch with you!???? What kind of technical support is that? If you do get lucky to talk with a tech, you quickly learn you made a bad choice--at least I did! This 8-channel system only records in CIF--but you don't know that until you get the package! It boasts a Sony CCT camera, but it is only a analog camera with a Sony chip inside--no way to know for sure. The camera mounting bracket and base are cheap...it's not adjustable like shown in the description--it's a 5" tube with a base; and the length of the camera cables is shorter that the length of the mounting bracket with base, thus leaving the BNC connecters exposed and vulnerable to theft or disconnect/damage by any intruder. This system may be what others tout it to be, but my experience has been terrible and I would not recommend this item to anyone! Sorry Amazon.com, but this item did not live up to your reputation!
I bought and installed this system about three months ago to watch over our retail store, and have been happy with it. My biggest complaint is the instruction manual - the Chinese manufacturer must have skimped on how much they were paying their Chinese to English translator. It's not a hard system to set up until you get to the internet and iphone functionality - here the instructions often left me scratching my head, but with some time, trial & error, I figured everything out. I suppose someone well versed in networking protocols would breeze through this setup in a snap, but it took me quite a few hours to figure it out and dial everything in.That said, it's really super awesome to be able to dial up my store on my iphone any time day or night, or watch it in better resolution on my partner's laptop (the iphone resolution is on the low side from the compression used). The cameras are not very sharp, but they are adequate. The night vision works well and the motion detection seems good. I think I've been getting about a month's worth of video stored on the hard drive before it starts to re-write over itself, with the dvr set to record on motion only. I haven't tried the audio recording yet, but i just bought a mic so we'll see. The interface in the dvr itself is pretty clunky - looks almost like a pre-windows dos sort of deal, though it does use a mouse. It's best to access everything through the windows explorer plug-in (once you figure out how to install the damn thing). The plug-in works well, allowing you to access all of the dvr's functionality over the internet, from adjusting settings to downloading and saving video files.One other mark against this unit is the format it stores its video files in: ".264" I wasn't able to find any kind of application for a mac that could play this file - quicktime didn't like it, and neither did anything else I tried it on. ".264" is the file extension on files you get when you put a thumb drive directly into the unit and tell it to offload files. Luckily, if you use the explorer plug-in over the internet, it will download these files and you can watch them immediately through the plug-in, and it gives you the option to output them as .avi files. One more reason to only access this unit through the internet interface. Oh, and the usb port on the unit only likes thumb drives, not hard drives. Also, it seems that the internet explorer plug-in only works on a pc (i have to use my girlfriend's computer). There might be a workaround for this, but I haven't figured that out yet.Overall, it's a great unit for the price. In October of 2009, 8 camera dvr systems were running around $1200 everywhere I looked, so this unit was a real bargain at nearly half the price. I'd probably give it 3 stars for the instruction manual language headaches, weird video format, and clunky dvr interface. Since it's so cheap, gets the job done, and has the cool iphone and internet explorer plug-ins, i give it 4 stars.
I've owned this system for about 2 months.The quality of picture is very good in day light and OK at night using infrared, it looks like a very grainy black and white picture. (I have the eight camera system which does not allow for HD recording which the four camera system says can.)The motion detection feature is close to useless. Shadows of my trees blowing in the wind, bugs flying in front of the camera lens, and the across the street neighbor's patio light at night will turn the recorder on but people walking up my driveway, down my walk, and ringing my front door bell won't and I have four different cameras covering these views (and it's a tiny area compared to most).The recording and playback system is a problem too because it saves recorded files in half hour increments for you to access. So, if the camera motion detector picks up a bug flying in front of your camera and turns the camera on for two minutes at say 4:03 - 4:05 and then a real event happens at say 4:15 it won't record it because there is already a file in the 4:00 - 4:30 slot.It will play back recordings at normal speed or 2, 4, or 8 times speed. You must manually select every half hour recording slot for every camera. I haven't found a "play back all" feature. This wouldn't be a problem if the motion detector worked correctly and you only had a half a dozen recordings to review a day but many false recordings means a lot a work reviewing what's been recorded.I haven't tried the live view over the internet options.So what are my options? Uninstall all the wiring run through the attic and un-mount the cameras (at considerable cost) and return it? Run it in continuous record and not bother reviewing recordings until I think something happens? I haven't decided.FYI, as usual, Amazon delivered this system in less than five days even though I used the free delivery option.
Camera has a very good quality, DVR is pretty easy to configure, it's config panel makes it very easy and understandable, even the remote access part. I would give it 5 stars, but you must use Internet Explorer to remote access your cameras, and if it was not bad enough, I couldn't make it work with the latest IE version, not even on secure and compatibility mode. That was a joy killer for me. If not only Internet Explorer is the worse browser ever made, I can't access my cameras from my Windows 7 computers because the latest IE version Windows 7 accepts is not "old enough" for the plugins sent by the DVR to be installed on your browser, and almost all my computers have Windows 7 installed.They say you can use it on a Windows Mobile phone, but honestly, who have one of those these days? I'm a Android guy myself.Don't get me wrong, it works, locally it works flawlessly , perfectly. Just don't expect much if you want to access it remotely, there's a lot of limitations. And don't you ever dare uninstall the plugins from your Internet Explorer, it's a pain in the 'head' to re-install'em.Peace!Out!
This is a great product, but the instructions given our very poor, customer service, not that great, It took me some time to figure out to setup for the iphone, got it going BUT the cameras that come with are of poor quality mounting legs, not very strong, cheap looking. the picture is good and the easy installation.
I bought this security camera system about 1 month ago, and so far is pretty good, love color images and resolution, it does what is suppose to do!
