RobKisasa Posted October 12, 2018 Posted October 12, 2018 I have a 10 year old setup with coax plus low voltage wiring to the cameras. Rewiring is not an option. What I want to end up with is - analogue cameras - DVR that is networked enabled allowing remote viewing - integration with Control4 so cameras can be viewed via C4 app on iPhone, on TVs in house, and T3 touchscreens - some control over the DVR via the C4 app What have you installed that works? Thank you.
Cyknight Posted October 12, 2018 Posted October 12, 2018 Luma DRV from SnapAV. Can even use SDI or TDI (check! don't think it does both) cameras for higher image quality.
cannemi Posted October 12, 2018 Posted October 12, 2018 There are soooo many options here, all comes down to Budget. My setup is Amcrest Camera's, 8 to be exact and then I have a DROBO for my NAS and I run Blue Iris. All integrates with C4 and is a cheap option for me. Depending on your budget, it will depend on what route you take. If you go Blue Iris, I am happy to share my setup and configs.

BraydonH Posted October 12, 2018 Posted October 12, 2018 I am one of the only dealers I know of doing analog surveillance on almost every install. The LUMA DVR converts all the analog streams to IP streams that can be picked up by Control4. So its the best of both world, the reliability and ease of analog, with the great IP integration features that you want. Pair the LUMA DVR with Interlogix TVD-4404 HD-TVI Cameras and you will definitely be impressed.

I heard the Luma DVR will do either but not both.
Cyknight Posted November 6, 2018 Posted November 6, 2018 ? Who gave you that idea? Yes of course they will both record and convert.

I got this information from Snap AV inside sales. I asked for clarity as I found it hard to believe. "the LUMA will do either record or convert but it can't do both".
