The customer specified:

6 cameras to start
Equivalent of 2MP resolution view and record
30 days minimum storage
Scalable to maintain specs up to 90 channels.

They did not specify IP or NVR, but I don't know any way to do it without
going that way and sticking strictly with H.264 and keeping it down around 5
frames.  I am still limited to telling them to buy more NVRs for each 32
channel block.

Even with H.264 at 5 frames we are looking at 92.7 Mbps plus overhead by the
time they meet full scale.  If they demand higher frame rates on motion it
goes through the roof.



Bob if their going to start with 6 cameras,  it sounds like their pulling
your chain.....

Tell-em  your price is scalable also, first 32 is current rate, but each
additional 32 bank will double the price..
