Product Description
You no longer need to worry when you leave your baby or children at home with the nanny or babysitter. Now you can view your home and property over the internet while you are at work, on vacation or anytime you are away from the home! The CV0204DVR is the perfect nanny cam and home surveillance system. The CV0204DVR is a complete recording system that allows you to view your security cameras online from any Internet enabled PC, anywhere in the world! This complete system comes with four outdoor cameras and can display all four (quad view) at the same time. Customize the recording and set a 24 hour recording schedule based on your preferences. You can choose to have the DVR record continuously during the day, then record only when motion is detected at night. And since each camera is equipped with night vision, you can view and record in total darkness! This DVR can record four different camera views (quad view) simultaneously and play it back at a smooth 30 frames per second. During playback you can even display each camera in full screen or view all four without losing quality. Finding your recorded footage is a breeze. Just search for the time and date it was recorded and the file will be displayed. Everything is stored on the DVR's internal 160GB hard drive, allowing you a maximum of 150 days of continuous recording. The DVR can be set to overwrite old footage when the drive does run out of space, providing you with worry-free continuous recording, year after year. The CV0204DVR also has a built-in Internet server for remote viewing. Just plug the DVR into your internet connection and set it up with the included software. Then simply type in your IP address to monitor your home or business remotely, from any internet-enabled computer in the world! You can even play back recorded footage, save picture or movie files to your computer, and more, all through a web browser. This versatile surveillance system is an ideal solution for anyone who wants

1 out of 5 stars broke after 3 weeks   February 5, 2010
S. Fee
I will try to be fair and hit the highs and the lows of this product. Firstly, I already had a (4) camera system from Dedicated Micros (high end system) which has worked perfectly for (5) years, but I was looking for something cheap to fill in the gaps in my camera system. I did my research but went more on price than features, which in hindsight was probably a mistake. The system arrived and I had it up and running pretty quickly, the instructions were very good and installation is easy.
Highs
1. Easy installation, easy instructions.
2. Pretty good video but needs some light to see in the dark, overall pleased with it.
3. DVR runs very quiet
4. Price..I actually paid $[...] and Amazon dropped it $[...] bucks..oh well.

After 3 weeks, the DVR would not record. I then found out the hard disk got corrupted. I had a power strip and was not turning it on and off, hence this was a surprise. I reformatted the drive, tried every trick in the book and it simply gave out. As several other reviewers have noted, this apparently is an issue and is not as rare as I thought. Customer service via their email was quick and authorized a return. I had to pay shipping ($43 bucks Fedex) and now I am waiting for it to come back. I will try to update this review when/if I get the unit returned.
Lows
1. no external disk for storing videos, must have it connected to network.
2. another reviewer noted the slow FF. I must agree, takes quite a bit of time to fast forward through saved videos. I'm guessing takes 15-20 minutes to look at 5 hours of video.
3. Cheaply made DVR unit. Obviously something that breaks after 3 weeks is cheap and the quality is subpar. My other system has run 24/7 for 5 years with no problems.

If the the Hard Disk did not get corrupted, I would have given it 4/5 stars.



4 out of 5 stars The price is right   January 6, 2010
Chubbs Dolittle (Seattle, WA)
I chose this system for the price and internet monitoring capability. I installed it in a day. The installation is simple. Everything worked as expected the first time I turned it on. Instructions for configuring your particular router to connect the system to the internet are available in video form at [...]. These are not high resolution cameras but images are clear enough for home use purposes at close range. The night vision works fine in the area illuminated by my outdoor lighting. During the day I can see all the way to my driveway entrance 200 ft. from the camera. Make sure to place the DVR on a surface that allows air to get under it to avoid overheating, which is the number one cause of electronic device failures.


1 out of 5 stars It will break and you'll be out $600   January 5, 2010

We bought a brand new system online for our business. The jack connecting the internet was broken and anytime you attach a cable it falls right out.

SVAT says that you shouldn't try to return the product but instead contact them with any problems. I sent them an e-mail and they said I could send them back the system (at my cost) and they would fix it and return it to me in a couple of months. I tried to explain that it's simply not a safe option for us to have no security, which I imagine is the case for most businesses that need security cameras. They then came back and told me that defective products aren't covered under the warranty. WTF? What does it cover if it doesn't cover broken equipment?

"If the network card itself is physically broken, it is technically not covered under warranty (NO physical damage is covered)." - Adam from SVAT

They also refused to send a replacement part saying that it would be too hard for me to install. Now we have to buy a new (NOT SVAT) camera system before we can return this to get our money back from the store where we bought it. I would stay away from SVAT products, but if you get one and have any problems, return it to the store. They have a warranty policy designed to keep anyone from ever actually returning anything unless you have the luxury of going without your security system for 2 months. And if that's the case, you probably don't need to buy a camera system anyway.



1 out of 5 stars crapped out after 90 days   December 30, 2009

Hard drive stopped working after 3 months. Camera connections are sloppy and as a result the unit often loses the video signal. Likewise the ac input is sloppy and if bumped the unit loses power. The cameras work fine but the DVR function is apparently very cheaply made with an inferior hard drive. I do not advise buying and I would not buy again.


5 out of 5 stars Excellent Value! Good Cam/DVR System for DIY'ers   November 21, 2009
Michael Royce (United States)
If you are the type of person who likes to save money by doing things yourself (instead of spending big bucks on pro installation), this cam system is for you. It's easy to install and setup. The only hard part for us was configuring the router to forward to the cam system. Fortunately, they have excellent tech support. Their tech guy walked us through and made sure we were all setup properly. The quality of the cams is good, not great, but it gives us what we need to view (over the Internet) what's going on at our place of business. We're glad we purchased this system. You get a lot of bang for your buck.
