I've never even heard of Muxlab.  That's one of the challenges in this
industry.  There are so many products out there that it's impossible
to know them all.  Were struggling to trim our approved products list
while trying to appease our customers who all seem to have their
favorites.

I was involved in one government project using VIP encoders and a
VIDOS about 6 months ago.  We've got another installation going on
right now with a DIBOS and a mix of analog cameras and IP cameras.  We
looked at a lot of IP systems and Bosch seemed like a better system
than Pelco Endura, SmartSight, Intellex IP, etc.  Some of it is the
great support we get from Bosch and their MR's.
