Video Recorders

Security Camera King has the largest selection of in-stock state-of-the-art security recorders. Our DRVs & NVRs can record footage from analog cameras, HD-CVI cameras, HD-TVI cameras and Network IP cameras.

Digital Video Recorders

The Digital Video Recorder (DVR) is the main component of any traditional security system. They take the video feed from the camera and change it into a usable, replayable video file. All of our recorders are packed with features like: Remote access from smartphones, tablets, and computers, motion activated recording, H.264 compression, realtime recording, network usage optimization (dual-streaming), HDMI 1080p output, USB backup, and literally dozens of tunable settings and features. These packages come standard with 420TVL cameras except our Ultimate Series which includes our high-res 550TVL cameras. These cameras are very reliable and can be installed indoors or outdoors.

Network Video Recorders

The latest technology in security; NVRs make use of high speed network communication to transfer huge, high-speed, high-quality recordings from megapixel cameras. They offer the entire scope of features from our DVRs. However, when you are recording at up to 128 times the picture size, there is no comparison in detail. The wave of the future is definitely IP network camera systems. Unlike computer based solutions, our NVRs are not susceptible to viruses, hackers, external update failures, driver conflicts, or any of the other issues that computers have.

1. What is a video recorder, and why do I need one?

A video recorder is a device that captures and stores video footage from connected security cameras. It is essential for monitoring, recording, and reviewing surveillance footage for security purposes.

2. What is the difference between an NVR and a DVR?

  • NVR (Network Video Recorder): Works with IP cameras, which connect via a network. Ideal for higher resolution and advanced features like remote access.
  • DVR (Digital Video Recorder): Works with analog cameras using coaxial cables. It is typically more cost-effective but supports lower resolutions compared to NVRs.

3. How many cameras can I connect to a video recorder?

The number of cameras depends on the recorder's channel capacity. Common options include 4-channel, 8-channel, 16-channel, and 32-channel recorders. Choose one based on your current needs and future scalability.

4. Do video recorders come with storage? If so, how much?

Most video recorders come with built-in hard drives, but the capacity varies (e.g., 1TB, 2TB, 4TB, or more). Some models allow you to upgrade or add additional storage.

5. Can I access my video recorder remotely?

Yes, most modern video recorders support remote access through mobile apps or web browsers. This allows you to view live streams, playback footage, and manage settings from anywhere.

6. What video resolution do these recorders support?

Video recorders support various resolutions, such as 1080p, 4K Ultra HD, or even higher. The resolution depends on the recorder and the connected cameras.

7. Are these video recorders compatible with all security cameras?

Compatibility depends on the type of recorder (NVR or DVR) and the cameras. NVRs require IP cameras, while DVRs are compatible with analog cameras. Some recorders offer hybrid support for both types.

8. Do video recorders support audio recording?

Some video recorders support audio recording if the connected cameras have built-in microphones or audio input capabilities. Check the specifications of the recorder and cameras for this feature.

9. What happens if the hard drive becomes full?

Most video recorders have a "loop recording" feature that automatically overwrites the oldest footage when the storage is full, ensuring continuous recording.

10. What warranty and technical support do you offer?

SecurityCameraKing.com typically offers warranties on their video recorders, ranging from 1 to 3 years. They al
