Title: Message

Bugger, that always happens. I post, then I find the info in 2 seconds. When I don’t post and hold back, it takes me hours and the thread jumps off subject.

 

Anyway… found a few pictures from the manual linked to from the henrys page.  The Higher end models appear to contain more than one bt8x8.. It’s possible that the lower end cards have added stabilization circuits to help with the input switching, but even so, they could not pull more than 25fps/number of inputs best case.

 

The models with multiple bt8x8 chips start at model number 650 from what I can see, but those photos may be out of date..

 

Also at the end of that second chapter is

 

Note

 

­1. GV-700V1 / GV-800V1 card is not compatible with Intel chipset motherboard.

2. GV-650 / GV-750 / GV-800V2 card is not compatible with VIA chipset motherboard.

3. Version 5.1 system must to install DirectX 7.0 or above.

4. GV-DSP card PC requirements­

(1). VGA card graphic chipset level must to use Geforce 2 or above.

(2). GV-DSP card is not compatible with VIA chipset motherboard.

 

I’m not sure if these are the shipping cards or not….

This is the equivilant page on henrys…

 

http://www.henrys.co.uk/cctv/multicam.htm

 

More detailed product info on there…. I’m just searching thru it now to try to ascertain what is exactly on the board.

 

The photo I can see doesn’t show more than one bt8x8 chip,but that may be the cheap card. I did look at these a while back before I got the grandtec for £60.. I’ll look back over my bookmarks and check exactly what these cards could do.

Haven't been following this thread so don't know if this has been mentioned already.

Checked this out before and posted about it a couple of months ago.

Considered it at the time but finances (and SLiMP3 bulk buy + recent JVC widescreen bargain) have prevented a purchase.

 

Geovision seemed the best value for money from what I could find (having no experience to draw from I'm sure a more knowledgeable source will correct me!).
However check out prices from
Germany with Europe wide delivery first at : http://www.sicherheitsteam.de/shop/endkunde_int/docs/pi1019215636.htm   

A couple of months ago they were considerably (20% - 30%) cheaper than Henry's on all models but only seem cheaper on the 8 cam models now.

Perhaps an email to both companies may entice them to drop their prices further if you fancy one of these...

 

Worth a look.

 

Anto.
