If I wanted to use my PC for recording video for security purposes whad would I have to do?

My computer doesn't have a graphics card so the feed would have to be USB and the video quality doesn't have to be fantastic but obviously decent enough to identify criminals, maybe a 1pfs video would be enough or would this be too jerky? Can anyone recomend what camera I would need and any software that I would need too? I have a 160gB hard drive so how much video would this hold? What size HD would I need to record 24hrs worth of video.



Thanks in advance.|||There are a lot of solutions out there and a lot of things you could consider...do you really need 24 hour continuous recording or could you be fine with motion-activated recording...do you want a wired or wireless solution? You can find some solutions under $200 and you could always purchase an external hard drive to save recordings to. Also the amount of space the recordings take up vary based on the resolution you record at and the system you purchase, so it would be hard to state emphatically how much space you'd need.



You might find a solution like this to be what you are looking for: http://www.brickhousesecurity.com/wirele…|||Have a look at Maplins website.

What's better for playing HD video, MPC or Cyberlink PowerDVD 10?

What is better for playing HD content? I have a very powerful PC with an Nvidia CUDA supported Graphics Card. Cyberlink plays videos very smooth with CUDA accelaration. Some people still say that MPC + custom codecs is a better solution?|||I'd go with Power DVD but it is pretty much the same.

How to use s video for pc to tv?

when i use s video for my connection to my tv from my pc the image quality really sucks. the picture is really blurry and slightly distorted. is there anything that can be done to make it better or should i invest in a HD video card? i am using a 19 inch Toshiba hdtv and i have a ATI Radeon x300/x550/x1050 Series Graphic card that has only DVI, VGA, and S-Video|||Your image looks like crap because you are using the worst possible connection.



S-video is complete garbage. It is a low-definition analog connection from the days of old boob-tube TVs and you have no business using it with a high-definition TV.



You should be using a DVI-to-HDMI cable instead, which is digital and can take full advantage of an HDTV. (Yes, DVI is compatible with HDMI.)|||I have the ATI Radeon x1050 series and it supports dual monitors fine. Try going into the video settings and increasing the screen resolution for the second monitor.|||I don't know what connections you have available on your TV but assuming you have DVI you should just do the dual-monitor setup with that video card. Extend your desktop and things should look great.



You can convert your VGA port on your PC to an HDMI port for your TV which will give you high definition video, but the tradeoff is that they are kind of expensive ($90).

How to update my video card for my pc ?

I have an HP elite 7100

Video card ATI Radeon HD 4650

Windows 7 (64 bits)



Do I need to uninstall the old driver before installing the new one?

Or do I only need to update it ?|||its recommended. especially if the new card is a different brand. the drivers may **** themself up|||Just get driver update software. It will scan your system and update all your drivers automatically. Using software is SOOO much easier, trust me. Check out some reviews at:

Is this is a good enough PC for my consumer HD video editing needs?

Im thinking of getting a PC along the lines of an intel core 2 quad cpu, a large 500+ GB HDD, nvidia geforce 9600/9800 graphics card, firewire port, with atleast 4GB of RAM. Most new pc's i see come with vista 64bit. so ill proly use that as an OS.



Basically i am asking would this is good enough for hd editing? my last dual core pc fried because i worked it too hard, had 3 gb ram, 2 512 sticks and 2 1 gig sticks. and some stock ati radeon card. it just overheated too much



would this pc need any extra fans? i dont do a ton of editing, but i do a decent amount, i just dont want this to overheat again. lol. would extra ram (like 8gb) help? cuz that how much i rele want.



any suggestions, greatly appreciated! :)|||That would be more than enough for HD Video Editing, I would recommend download "iDeneb" and installing that it's mac osx which has iMovie. iMovie is pretty good. Hope this helps

Looking to buy a PC for HD Video Editing and FX at a good price (UK £), any suggestions?

Hi



I am hoping to buy a new computer with the main interest of using it for HD Video Editing, Visual FX and 3D animation, however price is an issue! Can any one suggest a model or a website that I can look at?



I have checked “overclockers.co.uk” but truth be told I am completely confused on the Graphic card issue and have no idea which card would suit my needs, so any feedback on the graphics card would be helpful as well.



Looking at spending no more than £700, and not even that much if I can help it (so Mac’s are well out of the question).





Thanks|||Visual FX and 3D animation as in ... After Effects , Cinema 4D ?



Just grab a GTS 450 or GTX 460.



For more technical applications where a workstation card would benefit you, grab a quadro 2000.
