can anyone help,

if anyone remember QUITE a long time ago i mentioned

once,
1, the centre cap of one of my wheels was nicked
2, the air valves from all 4 tyres are nicked,


today i found out that my left wing mirror was pushed out of place, and the joint that it holds onto the door is loose and feels like any more pressure it would break.


i wanna know if there is possible a cctv, that i could put that i could record/watch with my pc.

BECAUSE if i use my VCR, it could record a max of 6 hrs LP.

but i won't be able to keep an eye on it unless i keep changing channnels,

and i spent most of my time on my PC.

hi mate i fit cctv and alarms for a living. You need a dvr (digital video recorder). We use them now instead of the conventional video recorder. They record all the time depending how many cameras and then when the memory is full it records over the start etc etc. If you want evidence you then burn it onto cd. Not cheap tho mate, for 4 cameras and all recorder your looking around 1k. I say 4 cameras because the price is mainly the recorder and you may as well use more than 1.

Hope that helps

are the DVR the timelapse type?

are these camera any good?

daz_vx220

time lapse is a kind of old video recorder with stronger heads so it can record for longer without burning out, nothing to do with a dvr mate. Its hard to tell how good a camera is just looking at it. They arnt proper **** (pardon my french) because all the little led lights around the lense light up at night and give you a black and white picture at night. Basically if they were **** they wouldnt go to the cost of putting these led's on.

LEDS no good?

the middle one is a sony ccd system 60 leds, 420 lines blah blah, just found it on a website, it makes it sound good.

what do you think.

ps. i don't think my graphics card is capable, its standard (what you get with pc model) don't even know what it is

To be honest mate i fit what they give me at work and they are all top of the range so i might not be the best person to talk to. As far as watching through pc i have no idea mate about graphics cards etc.

Get a pair of big b@stard dogs living in the back seat with the windows open.........

Seems like the ******* are putting you through a lot of hassle! If it's on a driveway, may be cheaper and easier to fit a couple of motion-sensor flood lights, or a zone alarm on the car?

wwp8

gonna get the lights done tomorrow,

Go for the biggest ones you can, the ones that you can hear humming they're burning so much leccy and will give the ******* sun burn whilst they're at it! Not too sensitive though, you want them within grabbing range before they are illuminated!

Wonder if you would get away with spraying something on the parts they keep nicking? Like UV dye or a skin irritant?
