So, I should not include the satellite receiver with DVR and internet hub as devices that are turned off due to their need to be "on" to record?

Correct. There are two outlets on the end that are not controlled (always on) so they can be used for the DVR. Note that there is a delay (half minute or so) after the "master" item is turned off before the "controlled" items go off.

Yup! That's basically right. There are two always-on outlets to be used for devices like that.

There is an option in the setup menu for Motion Detection (on/off). I leave mine off so it always records when power is on. I haven't tried the "on" setting. Note that I have 2 of these devices. I liked the first so much I bought a 2nd one for my wife's car. The 2nd one was defective and I had to return it to the vendor. Their support was horrible and their shipping time was over 7 days. The problem was resolved, but communication with the vendor was unbelievably bad.

when car is off, the ABEO CAR DVR is also turned off automatically... no worry

Yes, will work with no internet access (obviously won't be able to remotely view feeds/recordings). You don't need a computer at all. However, if you want to view the feeds/recordings, you will need a monitor or a TV hooked up the the security DVR.

You do need to leave the computer on all of the time. I have my computer password protected and lock the computer, but it must be on. I don't know the answer to the power save mode question. The receiver is plugged into the wall or power strip and the other end is plugged into the computer. The computer is where the footage is recorded and stored. I have two cameras plugged in and they both send a signal to the receiver which forwards the signal to my computer.

Yes. It will still record/view on the DVR and on local LAN/Wifi Network without issue

You can, using the free app ASee. It does require some set up in the Defender DVR and in your wireless router settings but it's worth it.

Unless your main dvr has some sort of DLNA functionality, I'm going to lean towards no. You most likely are not going to able to watch recorded shows.

Thank you,Stapler.In fact,I believe my cable company,Insight Communications,is doing just that.In the forum at DSL Reports devoted to Insight issues,others have alluded to the same problem I am having.I believe Insight is including the "do-not-record" flag solely to prevent non-Insight DVRs from having full use of their capabilities.

Yes Ronald you are required to use a power adapter also as the dvr is not a supply of power to cameras

This isn't a recording device. It streams content from a Tivo DVR, so you can watch what is recorded on your DVR when you are away from home.

It can record in motion detect only. What do you means turn off the cameras? If you take out the power of the camera, it will have no signal to the DVR so it won't record. or you means you want the camera still on but it doesn't shows on the screen?

Yes, I do it all the time. I turn the TV and HD box on set on the channel I want to record, then set up the timer recording (I always use the Auto mode so it uses the whole disc and makes for a better picture). After everything is set to go, I turn off the TV while leaving the HD box on. Works like a charm!

I don't know, quite what you mean...but, as long as its plugged in...its on standby, until you push power button and the tv starts...while in standby, I can still record things on my PVR/DVR..we just pull the plug out/turn off the powerpoint - during bad storms....when its on standby, it uses only a little bit of power...but, ive had the tv on from 6am - 11.30pm on the same channel, watching tv shows and sport..always on, until I press the power button to turn it off...hope this answer helps..

No. A "DVR" with Cat5 inputs is typically an NVR or Network Video Recorder, and would require IP cameras. Do some research online and make sure you are using the correct camera type to go with your "DVR".

Hi the camera is recording all the time !! When it sees an alarm it keeps a time before and after alarm !! If it's been disabled it will not work if you lost Internet its lost the time it go's off till the time it gos back on !! The best you can do is have a back up eg with a card and a E M P S ( emergency power supply) but it is a good system !!!!

You can, but the auto switching function only works when boththings are off and one gets turned on. Since I doubt you turn off your DVR you would have to manually press a button on the pigtsil to switch sources. You really need to plug in two things that get turned off most of the time like an Xbox and a blue ray player. Then it works perfect.
