What software can you use with the camera for recording? Also, how much hard drive strorage does it use for a certain length of recording.

There are a couple of popular 3rd party software platforms that can be used for recording video. Blue Iris and Ispy come to mind. Disk utilization varies depending on the frames per second you require. 7 meg per minute would probably be the max.

I wish I could help you there, I don't do much video recording on my camera. I've never tried to use any programs for video. But usually canon has a software that comes with the camera on the disk that allows for video and picture conversions.

It supports 48 bit LBA so HDD size is not limited. Any camera ~500 lines of resolution will work; HD cameras won't.

Yea, 32 GB shouldn't be an issue, but make sure it's class 10 so it's fast enough to record. Your record time will depend on a lot of stuff... straight run, open and shut, on and off. Hard to calculate. It isn't "really" long though. Sorry, can't be precise.

you can allocate how much space is available for event, motion detection and normal recording in the settings. I had an 8gb card which got filled completely, I just installed a 32gb a month ago and there is still room available. I will continue to monitor if the camera can use all of it.

Make sure you set up the cameras to record on motion only. They usually come default as record all the time. This will free up lots of space. For 16 cameras you should probably also have a 1TB hard drive in size.

According to the manual, "The maximum continuous recording time is under 20 minutes. The maximum video file size is 1.8GB. When a video recording time is more than 20 minutes or a video file exceeds 1.8GB, a new video file is created automatically." This is probably to allow use of video from this camera with older DOS FAT-16 and FAT-32 file size limitations.

As long as you have memory you can record as long as you like I personally use a Scan Disk 128 GB 45MB/ps card so I've never run out of space. The camera also has 64 GB of internal space that you'd be hard pressed to fill on a single project because if shoots in AVCHD. Hopefully that helps! It's a great little camera!

Depends on size of hard drive you put in. I wanna say i bought a Seagate INTERNAL hard drive i think it was 750mb i have like 2 weeks over record time of constant 27/4 recording. If you get a 1 tb or larger you can have like a months worth.

I use "IP Camera Super Client" software for recording to a hard drive. Monitoring is done either via built-in browser-based software or software I'd mentioned.

I have this system but I do not understand your question. Are you looking for add-ons for the product? If so, you can use practically any hard drive you wish as well as different cameras. The cameras that come with it work very well. Hope this helps.

This is a 500gb hard drive.based on the set up (continue record or motion detect 3 to 6 months with 4 cameras. It will auto delete old or overwrite the drive. If you need section saved put on thumb drive or disk for storage and just let the system continue.

I can assure you that 16 gb is a lot. Recording time up to 12hrs +. I got the micro sd 16gb for cameras nd I have a lot of recording time. Simply put, you don't have to buy another one for a long time. Make sure you get the right sd card for cameras !!!!!!!

hello, as far as the memory card goes, it stops recording when full. with a 32gig card, I got about 5 hours of recording time. I just erase the card once a week on my laptop. when the card gets full it tells you. the menu is quite tempermental as formatting the card while in the dashcam is a pain.

I use 32G of SD card. One could hold more than 10 hours of recording. the camera comes with micro USB plug but not convenient when running cables.

You can download the manual online - there is a chart, depending on image quality setting and memory card size you can potentially record long videos. For example on my T4i with a 32 GB card and maximum quality (nothing else on card), 88 minutes of video.

Kind of - the camera has a special type of RCA plug called a "BNC". It comes with an RCA plug adapter, so to connect it to a computer, you would need an RCA (video in) plug on your computer. You can buy a "security card" IDE or PCIE, and it will use your Hard drive to record. I actually started this route, but found it better to just buy a seperate DVR, and you can access the device from a computer or smartphone from anywhere. The camera is pretty good for an outside, all weather unit.
