cctvdistributor Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 We are distributor of CCTV Camera, DVR, etc. A customer told me he wants to display CCTV Camera video on PC monitor, in order to save extra cost of buying a CCTV monitor. While CCTV Camera is video output, PC Monitor is VGA input. How could we do this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james.wilson Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 you either need a vga adapter (some call em game adapters) or connect it to a device with a vga aoutput. While there are pins in a vga connector for video this is purly for output from the gfx card, not input into the monitor.

arfur mo Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 Cheapest and simplest I should think, would be a TV card, with a video in socket. i'd be careful here and ask around for one thats known to be ok wittnCCTv, many i've seen jam up when used with CCTv, just like many of the composite to vga dongles do do, think its to do with the multiple time base signals freezing the time base clock on the cards. regs alan We are distributor of CCTV Camera, DVR, etc. A customer told me he wants to display CCTV Camera video on PC monitor, in order to save extra cost of buying a CCTV monitor.

How could we do this? whatever he do's, it's going to cost some money, so why not simply get a composite to uhf converter from maplins and run his cctv through his television, or televisions if he has a distribution amp? alternatives -: Tv card is going to be about If you think education is difficult, try being stupid!!!!
