    Amazon Verified Hold(What’s this?)
    This review is from: Q-See QSPDVR16 16 Channel Digital Video Recorder PCI Card (Electronics)

    I’ve bought QSPDVR16 card nearly exactly 1 year ago and it’s been working fantastic. I previously had 2 QSPDVR04 PCI cards, but needed more cameras, so I upgraded to the 16-channel card. I wrote a review on Amazon for that card. So this review is going to be honestly similar – I just felt like writing another one. :) This new card just takes up 1 PCI slot, but will need 3 additional rear expansion slots in your case. This is everywhere the additional BNC connectors go, 4 per slot. They have cables the plug into the main PCI card inside the case. Then the ports just screw into an empty slot. So you’ll need at least a mini-tower to install this card. I was already using a Dell Optiplex GX280 Mini-tower, and it worked fantastic.

    The main advantage to this card is its ability to record 120fps mutual between the 16 channels. So if you only have 8 cameras that means instead of 7.5fps, you can bump that up to 15fps. I’m now running 12 Cameras, so I’ve had to lower the fps on a few of them to 7. This facility fine for most recordings. But, if you are watching them in real-time on the main DVR, it has a max of 480fps or 30fps per Camera if using all 16 channels. This is enough for nice smooth video on the main monitor. Expect to some extent “choppy” video at 7fps with your video recordings. Video quality is limited to 640×480. This is a relatively low pledge but is more than passable for a basic home DVR logic – at least at this price point. I just wouldn’t expect to zoom into any license plates or identify somebody far away from the camera. If you need this functionality, you’ll need to not only step up to a more expensive PC or Stand-alone DVR logic, but much more expensive cameras.

    The software facility just like the 4-channel PCI card. The record options are full time recording, scheduled, or motion recording. You can also set multiple record types per camera. For example, you can have Camera 1 record 24/7, but also tell it to do motion recording. So when you are playing back the recording, you can either play back everything, or just the parts everywhere here is motion. This is a very handy feature. But, even after all of this time, they still haven’t fixed the quick forward feature. It only goes about 4x normal speed. So you are forced to sit around and wait or just keep manually jumping ahead with the slider. Once again – motion recording is helpful, and the motion sensitivy is adjustable.

    The largest selling point for me with this particular PC based DVR was the ability to have remote viewing of the DVR in the house. This enables me to setup the main DVR to function as a webcam with the included software. Just check a few boxes and you’re excellent to go. This can be setup to be limited to your internal network or even viewing outside via the internet. Be careful if enabling that option as here are security issues with opening up ports to the outside internet since it has a web-based interface to install the local client. For my supplies, I just want to view the cameras from other PC’s in the house; which this does very well. You can even view previously recorded video – although the software is much more basic than what you get directly from the main DVR.

    As mentioned in the previous review for the 4-channel PCI version, the manual is to some extent hard to follow given it was obviously on paper in another foreign language. But, since I had already gotten used to this stuff from the previous cards, upgrading to the 16-channel card was very simple. The software and hardware is nearly identical. The only corporal difference is how the brackets need to be installed. But if you are new to this stuff, certainly read the manual before you jump into the PC-based DVR and permanently download the latest version from the Q-See website. If it looks like too much, here are some nice stand-alone solutions.

    Pros:

    * Honestly low-priced 16-channel PCI DVR Card
    * Simple installation
    * Basic but very functional software
    * Descent video playback/record quality.
    * Remote software for Live/Recorded playback via LAN/WAN.

    Cons:

    * Advanced features may confuse some users
    * Manual needs to be re-writting in “English”
    * Quick Forward needs to be drastically increased
    * Wouldn’t hurt to have increased FPS recording per camera.

    Bottom line: Even as here are better dedicated DVR’s and PCI DVR’s out here – considering the price and functionality of the QSPDVR16, I rate this card at 5 stars, and consider it highly recommended for and home/small business surveillance. Even though I didn’t have any issues with the card or software, keep in mind that I am a very technical user. If you don’t feel comfortable opening your PC or are a novice user – be sure to read the user’s guide on the Q-See site before hold to make sure you know what you’re getting into. :)
