CCTV Video Recorders

🎥 CCTV Video Recorders – DVR, XVR & NVR Systems Made Easy

🧠 Choose the Right Recorder from the Start
The recorder you pick now shapes your entire system. It affects your picture quality, app experience, and remote viewing.

💡 What System Do You Have?

  • IP Cameras? → Use an NVR or Hybrid XVR

  • Analogue, TVI, CVI, or AHD? → Use an XVR or Hybrid

🛠️ Every OzSpy XVR Is a Hybrid
Our recorders support TVI, CVI, AHD, CVBS (analogue), and IP. You don’t need to guess—our systems handle everything.

📱 Don’t Forget About the App
A great recorder is only useful if the app works for you. Some brands offer excellent image quality but hard-to-use apps. Ask us for help before choosing.

🔗 Compatibility That Works for You

Our recorders work with most brands—from cheap retail systems to quality brands like Hikvision, VIP, and Dahua.

📷 Recording Resolution Matters

At OzSpy, we advertise the recording resolution, not just the HDMI output. Always check the recorder resolution, not just “4K” on the box.

⚠️ Higher resolutions use more storage. To save space, drop the frame rate to 12fps and use H.265 compression. You’ll still get smooth video with less load.

🚨 Smart Motion Detection That Doesn’t Miss a Thing

Basic motion detection only compares image changes—which often results in missed events or false alerts.

At OzSpy, we go further.

We set up all systems to record constantly, while motion detection flags key moments for easy review. Plus, our advanced models include AI humanoid detection, so you’ll only get alerts when a person approaches, not leaves blowing or pets wandering past.

This setup is the gold standard—ensuring you capture everything without the noise.

 

🌐 Remote Viewing from Anywhere

All OzSpy recorders support remote view via app. Watch live or play back footage from your mobile or tablet.

🔔 Push Notifications

Get alerts when motion is detected. Keep in mind: phone settings and telcos can affect reliability. If it’s critical—test your notifications.

🎙️ Audio Options

You can choose:

  • 📦 Built-in microphones – simple, but basic

  • 🎧 Audio IO ports – add external mics for clearer sound

🗣️ Two-Way Talk

Some recorders support two-way talk, but many don’t.

While it sounds appealing, most users are disappointed due to the tiny built-in speakers and noticeable delay. The result? Poor audio quality and frustrating communication.

If you truly need two-way talk, consider systems that allow external microphone and speaker connections. These give you more volume and clarity, especially when paired with an amplifier—but they do require extra setup.

For most home users, two-way talk is a nice idea that often falls short.

 

🔌 Power Requirements

  • PoE Recorders → Need 48V or 52V

  • Non-PoE Recorders → Use 12V DC
    Running a 12V system? Choose a non-PoE NVR or Hybrid XVR.
