Subject: [ukha_d] Multi Input Video
record card
What I want for Christmas Santa......
(Santa mumbles words containing KAT5 ,
Switcher & get off my knee, or was it on ?)
Realtime recording of 4+ video sources through a PC video card
simultaneously
- not sequenced and not split screen. Low quality acceptable ( low frame
rate
and resolution). Time/ data stamping.
On alarm trigger on a particular source to switch mode to high quality
recording (faster frame rate and higher resolution). Should handle multiple
triggered sources in this way. Untriggered sources to remain in low
quality.
Pre trigger video available recorded in high quality for a few seconds
before.
ie continual high qulaity buffer.
Trigger either by external logic input eg PIR or by motion detection
software
operating on all cameras.
Is there such a solution - I know there are a few sequencing solutions but
the
cycle times are quite long as they don't normally support externally
synched
cameras - they also can only cope with 1 triggered
camera.
Suspect I need a 4 input video card with separate mpeg encoders for each
channel - would even consider 4 separate cards if the package worked.
Suspect
it would cost a lot and have bandwdth problems too.
