PVR screwing up
Anybody else have this problem? Since last summer, my PVR has been progressively worse at recording my programmed events. It's hit or miss, but the problems really started getting worse last fall. The recorded show would start to play, then the image would freeze, sound would stop, and then it would come back, 10 seconds later, with missed program. Since the beginning of the year, it has gotten worse. The recorded show would start and then a couple minutes after watching, the show would end. Essentially missing 50+ minutes of the hour long show. I would try fast forwarding and then the playback would stop, looking like I've watched the whole show. To try and solve the problem, I would reboot the PVR, through soft ware, or, pull the plug. Usually, I would reboot the router. Sometimes it would be fine, other times, not. Finally an overseas tech found that my PVR didn't have a necessary update to it's firmware/software. He initialised the update. Then, a couple nights ago, we watched 38 minutes of a show and it ground to a halt. Any ideas would be appreciated. And yes, I can still surf the web and all that.
Doorbell Camera only records for 30 seconds?
Hey there! Last summer we had an Alarm.com ADC VDB750 Wired Video Doorbell Camera installed by Telus Security. The issue I am having is that it only records for 30 second increments and then won’t record again for 30 seconds. Is there a way to get it to record 24 hours a day without breaks? Our camera constantly misses recording key moments due to these 30 second breaks between recordings and it makes the camera completely useless.
