Default CCTV

I have a swann system using night owl cams but it's pretty ****, locks up hard to find stuff, if you leave it running 24/7 it's kinda ok, but use sensor mode and it crashed after an hour.

Local to me is CCTV direct can any of you CCTV gurus advise me of what I should buy.

I need 4 cams there mounted about 8m up one will look at my car 20m away pref wide angled so I can get the house door in, the other will look down the street back of house so distance would be cool.

I'd like real time recording not petrol station stutter, HD an option but it's costly I know.

Internet access etc

Thanks guys

Ted

Use CCTV directs website please or advise on better if you know

Thanks I'll go check later today it's in the loft, it works ok until you use sensor mode, it records when there triggered but after a while it will trigger then just stay there with the hdisk flashing like its recording. I've tried a new drive but still same.

Swann did tell me the flash it, but when I tried it bricked the device so I got another but still the same.

I,ll come back to you later. Thanks
