Security Video Recording: Stand Alone Or PC-Based?
Are you ready to wire your home for security video recording and deciding between stand alone or PC based system? Read on to find out which is which for your home and property protection.
Security Video Recording Now and In the Future
There are different reasons to choose a surveillance system to protect your family and property. Choosing the right system is like choosing the fitting wedding theme to reflect your personalities or pay homage to your love story.
Choosing a home security system is a serious matter to consider after the honeymoon. You have the security of your future family to think of.
When choosing the security video recording for your home, you'll have to decide if you need a stand alone or a PC-based system. The cameras that record the activities in the different parts of the house, indoors and outdoors, are wired to a mother system that spells the big difference in budget, functionality, and flexibility.
When you are shopping for a video security system, have a general idea of what will work for you at present and how you envision to work when the kids start coming. With kids around, that would be a different matter and you and your spouse can brainstorm about the present and future requirements for your home video security system.
Stand Alone vs. PC-based System
You have seen those surveillance cameras everywhere, and got used to the idea that you are on camera at the malls, in the office, on the street, and even in the restroom (though this is outlawed). So deciding on a security video recording system should not be much of a puzzler. You know what you want, but you do not know how to get around the multiple products offered.
As a newlywed couple and living in a small apartment, you'll need a simple but effective surveillance system. You want to know who is buzzing the doorbell, or what the cleaning woman is doing when she does her Monday chores. You will be thinking in terms of two to three cameras and the idea of a stand alone model.
A stand alone model sounds a good idea for the set-up but when the babies start coming or getting a bigger house, you cannot easily upgrade your surveillance network. You are tied to the number of cameras indicated in the DVR box. Here are more snags with the stand alone option; you cannot store the images directly in the hard disk of your PC, which makes it difficult to manage your files.
A PC-based system allows for the transition from a four-camera system to 11 to 46 without giving you much technical headaches. All you need is a corresponding video capture card to meet your surveillance needs. It sounds easy, and it sure is easy to upgrade your system when you're using a PC-based system.
Going Digital
Using the PC-based system for your digital security video recording will enable you to easily view all images from the different working cameras. The advantage a DVR PC-based system does away with unnecessary recording. It only records when it detects detection so this frees up a large chunk from your hard disk drive.
So between the stand alone or PC-based system for your security video recording, which would you choose?

how do freeze clips or individual frames from a video (such as a security video) on my computer?
I have a video taken from a security camera. It is a MPEG file. I need to break the video into individual frames or clips, so that I can blow them up, isolate evidence, and print them out. any ideas?
on windows?
basic playback and screen capture can be done with vlc media player (and lots of other apps i'm sure)
for more editing 'oomph', try virtualdub (optionally, with avisynth)
good luck

Home Security Video Surveillance in Phoenix
<!-- @page { margin: 0.79in } P { margin-bottom: 0.08in } -->
Home security should be a top priority whether you live in Phoenix, Houston, or any other city. There are several aspects to any home security plan. One great way to protect your house is by installing a video surveillance system. There are many different ways to take advantage of a video surveillance system.
When it comes to protecting your home there are so many different ways to keep your family and your house safe from potential dangers. Installing a home alarm system, knowing your neighbors, locking your doors and windows, keeping valuables in a safe, not giving out too many copies of your keys, not hiding spare keys in obvious places, installing a smoke detector, and keeping a list of emergency phone numbers handy are just some of the simple steps you can take to protect your house and family. Another important feature of your home security plan should be installing a video surveillance system. This can be used in many ways for both protection and convenience.
With a video surveillance system installed you can know what is going on inside and outside of your house. Some of the features and uses include:
- Know who is at your front door without walking to the door. Rather than risk coming in contact with a possible intruder, check the TV monitor that is hooked up to the camera to see who is ringing your bell. If it is a stranger or someone you do not want to talk to, you do not even need to go near the front door.
- If your kids are playing in the backyard, or in another part of the house, you can keep an eye on them from wherever you are by watching the monitor. Make sure they are staying out of trouble and away from danger.
- Replay footage from the video cameras to find out exactly what is happening around your house. If you had a theft or an intruder in your house, you can go back to see their physical features in order to file a detailed report to the police. You can also see exactly what happened. If you are waking up to problems on your property, review the footage to see exactly what is happening while you are sleeping.
- If you have a babysitter or nanny watching your kids, keep an eye on them either in real time or go back to review their time in your house. You can connect your surveillance system to your computer so you can watch real time video of what is going on in your house. This is helpful if you have a new nanny coming in and you want to make sure you can trust them.
There are so many different ways to take advantage of having a video surveillance system in your house. On top of the other safety precautions you should be taking, it is an excellent part of your home security plan thanks to the number of uses it has, both for safety and convenience factors.
