Frame Rates

[mountianrider]

Evening

 

My customer wants a 8 channel 8 tb cvi dvr with 1080p cameras.

 

I calculated this at 18 days @ 12 FPS with 1080 Res.

 

My question is, what is the minimum frame rate you would drop to? Would you notice a diff recording @ 720p?

 

Thanks

What's the point in fitting 1080p and then recording at 720?

We usually setup a schedule or motion recording to increase the time

Is drop the FPS to about 8 tho that should be high enough for most situations

As above dont drop the res.

 

6 fps is ok to, just depends on fast moving objects close to the camera.

We have motion detect on with 5 fps with pre motion and 8 on full motion, the recorder is recording all the time but saves 10 secs pre motion  @5fps and then jumps to 8fps

[mountianrider]

Interesting so 6FPS is ok? Even though real time is 25?

 

Why is there options for 60 FPS?

I try and aim for around 12ish

Less is more noticeable to the eye

no its not.

I usually don't go below 6 fps, its more than enough. I know some installers who insist on going the full 25 fps, unless your making "movies" it makes no sense.

For me, normal, vbr, highest, 1296kbps max, 6fps

Event(motion or pir) change to 12fps 3192kbps or 2048 depending on storage.
