For Paranormal Investigation what are the best settings to capture EVP? Should the VCVA be on or off? What does V-Sync do?

I really know nothing about paranormal research. To record sounds I would use a scene setting of Lecture or meeting. Set microphone to high sensitivity. Do not use any sound filtering settings which cut down recording sensitivity. I would set VCVA on OFF. I assume you want to record all different type of sounds unfiltered. I cannot help with V-sync but suspect it is involved recording music or sound from one device to another.

I would highly recommend VideoSecu, portable DVR. A\C plug required. Records to SD card, Love it!

We had the same issue, and I'm pretty sure we didn't have it on VOX. We never keep it on VOX. From what I remember, we turned off and unplugged everything and re-paired the camera(s) to reset it. We may have had to do that a couple times (I don't remember exactly), but it did eventually stop. I think we even had 2 cameras at the time, and it only blinked out on one of them?

Mine has options in the menu for loop recording ("off", "3 min", "5 min", and "10 min"). I have it set to "off". When full it displays an icon that indicates that it's recording over the old footage, but when I go to play back the latest recording it isn't available. I pulled the card to check it on my laptop and

It has an optional mode called Variable Control Voice Actuator, which will automatically start and stop recording when it detects sounds above a level that you can select. When you turn on the mode, VCVA shows up on the display.If you don't want to use this mode, leave it off and just start and stop the recording manually.

I have to turn off the two fluorescent tubes behind me to get full range of sensing. in the vertical plane. It will work in ordinary light but it is IR and any heat sources can swamp the sensors causing false readings. The movement range is set using a profile editor (the default one is pretty good to start with). There are profiles for many of the games that support the device, but I can't comment on their usefulness as I don't play them. It works for me in Elite dangerous (excellent) and X-Plane (also excellent). I find that the sense of immersion in the game is tremendously improved.

Sorry I didn't see your email. The way I capture stills from VCR tapes is to first convert the tape to a video file via the VGB100 and then pick out the stills with a video editor program. For that purpose I use CyberLink PowerDirector.

It is a great little recorder for the money. I like that it has both reg. record and voice. I bought it for a ghost hunt, didn't pick up ghosts but did pick up conversations from the other people so I think it would be fine. Good luck. Patty

I go the one from Cleveland paranormal just for the full spectrum capability(IR and Ultra violet)...It works very well. my only complaint with any of these different camcorders is the light on the camera. You'll have to get a light bar and get a secondary IR light to light up the place. Bell and Howell is a better name then the one from Cleveland, but they both work about the same, but you must care for them well.

Yes. I've got mine to record 100% of the time, but also make a log in the system when there is motion. You can also pick which portion of the monitor to record the motion on, so you can block out trees and such so there are fewer false reports.

Hi, I just bought the LifeCam VX-5000 and I have the same problem as Bonnie above. Could anyone tell me what version of windows and what version of skype they are using? I just want to get this to work. Thanks!

This is Hybrid DVR, there have three work modes: 1.Work with analog camera only in dvr mode 2.Work with IP camera only in NVR mode 3. Work with both IP camera and analog camera in Hybrid mode.

Hey Alex; the camera will ask you what's your recording destination (external SD card or internal memory) so you cannot record simultaneosly into both modes. Hope this helps.

Yes, usually less than a second. But I leave mine on VOR so that it records when it hears a sound or gets a signal (I usually record through a wire) so that it doesn't miss anything.

Currently, motion detection isnt functional on our NVRs. We are currently testing a firmware update for the NVR that will hopefully enable motion detection. So, I would check back in a few weeks to see if that is available. If you have any more questions, feel free to let me know. Best, Cameron Zmodo Technical Support unfortunately
