If Pogoplug is in LAN and I am at home, does the video file still go out to Pogoplug server then come back to my tablet?

Install Arch Linux and Samba and it's a pretty fantastic set up. I have 2 of these setup this way.

Yeah, On their cloud... The design is pretty bad in my opinion, not intuitive and slow. I accidentally purchased one of these after being mislead by the retail packaging. I thought it was compatible as a SMB device, but wasn't. Best get a router that has a USB plug for your home server. You can even set up an FTP for remote access if you choose. There are better NAS solutions than PogoPlug.

The video doesn't actually 'transfer' anywhere. You need to connect to the device to see the video. The camera can be set up to 'push' images to an FTP server, or email them upon motion detection.If you actually wanted to view live video from this camera from the Internet, it would need to live on a public network and have its own IP. An alternate solution would be for the camera to live behind a firewall and use a NAT statement on the firewall to permit the HTTP port of the camera to be accessible from the firewall itself on some alternate port. (ie: http://ip.address.of.firewall:12345 ). It doesn't matter if you're using an iPhone, PC, android, etc. Anything with a web browser can hit the camera.

I installed Debian and Arch. Both are easy to install, but Debian is easier to maintain long term. The install instructions can be found at these links. http://blog.qnology.com/2014/07/hacking-pogoplug-v4-series-4-and-mobile.html http://forum.doozan.com/read.php?3,12381

Yes ,I am watching video from hard drive. Samsung tablet .Plays great. So long as you have right format on videos

if you mean to just use it via usb? no, you cannot use it via USB. It must be connected to the internet. It uses PogoPlug software (see pogoplug devices for more info). It can also be used as a network drive. Therefore it must have a network cable (cat45) to your router or internet connection.

At the moment Samsung has not provided to see the recorded video from local network. SD card can be taken out and viewed directly from the computer if needed to, but you will need to know the time and date you are looking for.

There is no software needed to view it. I've had two of these for about one month. I've looked at the video twice. I believe I have a 32G chip and only store about 4 hours of video, but really good quality video. I recall seeing the coordinates and believe (but not sure without looking, sorry) the coordinates are across the bottom of the screen. These are the best available. I first bought the junky ones that are sold fairly commonplace online and junked them.

Hi Ryan, No you can't. This is not an overly intelligent device. It essentially acts as a gateway between whatever hard drive you plug into it and the net, allowing you to access your content remotely through pogoplug.com.

it is not plug and play, and the video goes to your harddrive. You also need a DYNDNs and set your router to a DMZ . If you want to access the cam from your smart phone, you need to have username and adress. The DYNDNS will take care of that for twenty bucks a year.

It's just a streamer for your storage. If your device can play .mov files, you should be fine.

Depends on your use, I love the fact that I can send files and retrieve files from anywhere in the world. Plus the Pogoplug can read any file system that your current usb HD is formatted to. No need to format it to a specific filesystem, which saves time if you need to unplug a drive to connect directly to your computer. It is a zeroconfig device as well, takes about 60seconds to get it online and sharing, no need to port forward on the router to gain access to the drives - this is all done through the device. The folder sharing thing is awesome, see my review on how i publish rss feeds for friends and family. I have tried router based NAS solutions in the past, and have been frustrated with lack of features and usability. The Pogoplug is getting better with each firmware update, which incidentally you do not need to do manually; they push it to you. There have been some hickups, however their support has been outstanding in getting them resolved in a quick, timely fashion. Hope this helps!

I let it record motion detected to an FTP server, it's pretty straight forward if you know how to connect to an FTP server. It takes a minute or so for the video to be uploaded which is strange because my FTP server is on my own LAN - perhaps it's the processing that takes time. This is how mine is set up:Go under Network->FTP settings:FTP Server: ftp://192.168.1.11/FosCamPort: 21FTP Mode: PASVThen add username and password.I had trouble getting it to work because I never bothered setting the local storage location, but after pointing to a C:/temp even though it would never use this location, it all worked great.

I would not expect it too. There are video players that are made to share video over a home or business network, but they usually have a network port built into them.

depends on case but most will.it changes much faster and safer (magnetic connection)if you N10 happened to fall with the usb in rather than POGO you could really damage port.I highly recommend.

The tablet must be plugged into an alway on lan - no computer needed. This unit does not have a wifi connection, so it must me placed near your router. This is a nice idea, but both of my cameras have died 30 days apart. Uniden warrenty usually takes 2 weeks to get them repaired.

As it states in the manual connect thru USB and it shows up as a flash drive. Access the files from the viewing software or watch in video player. Using the software you will also see your path in the GPS function.

Yes, with FTP you can push video to a remote location. Please refer to the Remote Monitoring Guide here for available recording options: http://www.q-see.com/content/files/guides/QC%20NVR%20Remote%20Monitoring%20Guide%20v1_web.pdf
